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 everyday activities like squatting down, getting out of bed, walking and more.

“Don’t Let Pain Slow You Down From Activity!” STAYING ACTIVE & BECOMING BETTER BALANCED
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 everyday activities like squatting down, getting out of bed, walking and more. 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.

“It’s Time For A New You This New Year!” STAYING ACTIVE & BECOMING BETTER BALANCED
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. While some people may enjoy participating in a regularly scheduled 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. However, if you have chronic aches and pains, it can be difficult to exercise. This lack of physical activity can make the
condition worse and more difficult to live with. This is where physical therapy can really help you. Not only do we relieve your aches and pains quickly, we can teach you how to safely exercise to maintain your new pain-free mobility. Our knowledgeable physical therapists are experts in muscle and joint problems, helping you return quickly to normal pain free function. At Lonoke and Pro Motion Physical Therapy, we listen to you and create custom hands-on treatments that alleviate your pain, improve balance, improve movement and walking while getting you back to doing normal everyday tasks with a healthier outlook on life.

Mr. Jerry was unable to sit or stand for long periods or play golf without experiencing pain when he started therapy. He is now able to go and play the sport he loves. Check out his story below. “The therapy has gotten me to exercise everyday which has enabled me to perform daily activities that I want and need to, where before I couldn’t. They have also enabled me to play golf which has been my passion for many years.” - Mr. Jerry “The therapy has gotten me to exercise everyday!”
