INSIDE: How’s Your Balance? Healthy Recipe
Relieve Pain In Minutes Patient Success Spotlight
Do you find yourself not as active as you use to be? As you age, you lose muscle and bone mass leading to the development of problems such as back pain, arthritis or osteoporosis. This makes it harder to do normal everydayactivities likesquattingdown,gettingoutofbed,walkingandmore. Regular exercise and physical therapy slows the loss of muscle mass, strengthens bones and reduces joint or muscle pain. In addition, physical therapy improves mobility and balance, which reduces the risk of falling as you age or suffering a serious injury. Scientists used to think that strenuous exercise was the only way to improve your health. However, new research suggests that just 30 minutes of moderate physical activity provides most of the health benefits needed. Moderate intensity is best, but even low-intensity activity is better than nothing.Whilesomepeoplemayenjoyparticipating ina regularlyscheduled exercise class, others may find it easier to just increase their daily activities, like walking.
It’s never too late to start moving. Physical activity is important, and can help you live independently for as long as possible.
