Improve Your Health and Fitness with Physical Therapy
Health is a relative term. It means that your body is operating at a high normal range in all the different systems from circulation, breathing, digestion, and more. Anything you can do to help your body achieve more of an ideal state is a step towards a healthier you. Everyone desires to be healthier, stronger, and more active. This may sometimes feel difficult to accomplish, due to pain, injuries, or poor diets. Pain increases undesirable chemicals in your body that cause stress, creating a challenge when it comes to exercise. All of this also affects your endocrine system, which regulates your hormones and controls almost everything happening in your body. Fortunately, physical therapy exercises can effectively ease your pain while simultaneously strengthening the affected part(s) of your body. Our highly trained physical therapists can create a personalized PT plan for your needs and goals. They have the right knowledge and the time to listen, evaluate, and guide you toward a pain-free, stronger, and healthier lifestyle. Contact your OSRPT location today to learn more.
Why is physical therapy so important? There are approximately 642 skeletal muscles in the body. This means that your strength and flexibility play an important role in your health. Your muscles not only help you move, but they support your circulatory and breathing systems. A stronger and more flexible you means a healthier you. Relieving joint or muscle pain and guiding you on proper physical therapy exercises are integral parts of our specialized treatments. Whether you are recovering from an injury or underlying condition that is causing you pain, physical therapy will help you get back to your optimum physical performance. At OSRPT, our physical therapy programs will get you back on track to living a happy and healthy lifestyle. Our physical therapists will design a treatment plan with the best exercises for an effective and speedy recovery.

4 EXERCISES FOR A HEALTHIER YOU
There are some simple exercises you can do on your own in order to complement your physical therapy plan and keep in shape after your sessions are over. These include: 1. Hamstring Stretch: Stand facing a wall or counter. Use it to steady yourself if needed. Take a large step forward with one leg, making sure the knee of the forward leg is straight and your body weight is shifted to the bent back leg. Place your hands on your forward knee. Hinge forward from the hips, keeping your back straight. Push your hips back until you feel a definite, but not painful, stretch at the back of the forward knee. For a greater stretch, elevate your heel on a step. Hold for 20 seconds. Repeat 3 times on both legs. 2. Iliopsoas Stretch: Assume a wide and long lunge position, with your hands on your hips. Tuck your buttocks under you while you shift your weight to the forward leg. Make sure to keep your posture straight. Hold for 20 seconds. Repeat 3 times on both legs. 3. Shoulder Flexion Stretch: Stand in a corner of the roomwith one foot in front of the other. Place your hands on the wall andmake sure to keep your back flat. Reach your arms up overhead. Move your chest towards the wall to feel a stretch in the chest. Hold for 20 seconds. Repeat 3 times. 4. Piriformis Stretch: Lie on your back with knees bent and your feet flat on floor.

Success Story
BONUS EXERCISE
LUNGE Start by standing with feet shoulder-width-apart. Next, take a step forward and allow your front knee to bend. Your back knee may bend as well. Then, return to original position, or you may walk and take a step forward and repeat with the other leg. Keep your pelvis level and straight the entire time. Your front knee should bend in line with the second toe and not pass the front of the foot.
"I am improving every time I have a PT session at OSR."
"I star ted Physical Therapy in September of 2020 and I could not even hold a glass of water. I was hunched over and could not stand up straight! The time I spent in PT at OSR has not only been remarkable, but I am 95% able to use my left arm and I am improving every time I have a PT session at OSR. The team along with Dr. Jarom are amazing to work with. Thank you, OSR!" - Ida

3 NATURAL WAYS TO BEAT SPRING ALLERGIES
Keep an eye out for more announcements from OSR... coming soon!
1. Limit your time outdoors. Each spring, trees release billions of tiny pollen grains into the air. When you breathe them into your nose and lungs, they can trigger an allergic reaction. Staying inside can help, especially on windy days and during the early morning hours, when pollen counts are highest. 2. Tweak your home. Simple changesmake a difference. Shut all windows to keep out pollen. Use an air conditioner to cool your home instead of a fan, which draws in air from outside. Take off your shoes at the door to keep allergens outside. Vacuum carpet regularly—and wear one of those masks you have lying aroundwhile doing so to avoid breathing in any allergens that may get stirred up. Finally, don’t smoke inside the home. It canmake allergy symptoms worse. If you or someone you live with smokes, now is a good time to quit. 3. Keep it clean! Be sure to wash all surfaces regularly with single-wipe dust rags (if using cleaning rags, be sure to wash them in hot water after each use). If you findmold, use water and detergent to clean, then let it air-dry completely. Finally, wash all bedding once a week in hot water and dry in a hot dryer.
