MORE MOVEMENT, MORE ENERGY “Have Tons Of Energy No Matter Your Age!”
(continued from outside)
Without frequent movement, your muscles waste away, joints become stiff and normal chemical processes in your body change. In fact, your circulation and lymphatic systems slow down causing a backup of toxic wastes, such as cholesterol, that are normally produced and excreted. There are many studies that show changes occur in the human body with less movement. Lack of movement and poor posture are the most frequent causes of low back pain, headaches, neck pain, shoulder pain and pain in the hips / knees or legs. Slumped posture actually changes the shape of your spine, closes the joints of your shoulders, tightens the tissues around the hips and produces a host of other problems. “There is one fundamental rule of the human body; it was made to move!” Sometimes people find themselves not moving like they use to or having difficulty moving due to pain. The restriction in movement has the potential to lead to other health problems. To be healthy, a big emphasis needs to be placed on movement. In order to keep moving, your body needs to be flexible, strong, have good balance and good nutrition. The medical experts at Lonoke & ProMotion Physical Therapy can help relieve your pain, re-align your body and get you moving. You can have more energy at any age! After years of medical training in analyzing and treating movement, our medical professionals are uniquely qualified to help you move better and pain free. With good movement, pain reduces, energy increases and mood improves. If you find yourself having difficulty moving or suffering from aches and pains, give our specialists a call today!

HAVE YOU MET YOUR INSURANCE DEDUCTIBLE FOR THE YEAR?
Patients with family plans or those who have had major surgeries or have a chronic illness are especially likely to have a $0 balance remaining on their out-of-pocket expenses. This means that the cost of physical therapy could be minimal or completely covered by the patient’s insurance plan.
If you are close to or have met your insurance deductible for the year, then now is the time to come in for Physical Therapy! Are you feeling aches and pains? Do you experience falls or muscle weakness? Let us help you get a head start for 2019. Contact us today to schedule your appointment.
