HIP HIKES While standing up on a step, lower one leg downward towards the floor by tilting your pelvis to the side. Then return the pelvis/leg back to a leveled position.
It’s the worst. It’s cold from November to April, snows, is gray, dark, windy, slippery, isolating. So why do we stay? I ask myself this every March. So why do we stay? I compare April through October in Maine to a Euphoric Paradise. The warm sun feels warmer because of the winter. The sky looks bluer. The flowers seem brighter. The scenery seems to pop – the water feels cleaner and the pine smells amazing.

Maine is like a toddler – very bad but so cute you don’t care. We live here for 7 months – and we muddle through 5. Even if you are an avid skier the dark skies for 18 hours a day become a bit much to handle – but in the summer you just can’t help but to be happy. It’s easy to stay fit and active living here too, in the milder months – so start walking and getting ready to hike, kayak, jog/run, and swim. It’s time to get out of the gym and into the gym nature provides!
PATIENT SUCCESS SPOTLIGHTS
I was a lot stronger!
“I worked with Becky for some pelvic floor problems I was having – I had 3 kids and the youngest was about a year. I never thought things would get better- 3 kids. I found that after a few sessions I was a lot stronger and my problems were resolving – and I thought it would be embarrassing too and it wasn’t. I wish I would have tried this after EACH kid and not waited. It was pretty simple and painless for me!” - W.A.
I can manage it now!
“I had back pain for several years. I made a 15 minute free appointment with Becky to see what she could do for me that no one else could. I was skeptical and I will tell you it’s not perfect but it’s 85% better. The docs wanted to operate and I can manage it now – when it bothers me I know what to do. And I can always go back for a tune up if it gets real bad.” - W.M.
