ASPIRE TOWARD A HAPPIER & HEALTHIER LIFE
Maintaining a healthy lifestyle takes work, but once you get into the groove of it, it becomesmuch easier. For example, eating nutritious foods is one of the easiest ways to improve your health (althoughwe know those sweets are hard to kick). Physical activity is the hardest aspect to get in the habit of doing, especially if you are being held back by chronic pain. Some people try to mask their symptoms with anti-inflammatory or pain-relieving medications, while others unfortunately give up on the idea of being active altogether. Luckily, there is an alternative option: physical therapy. With the help of a physical therapist, it is possible to reclaim your pain-free, healthy lifestyle, and get back to doing the activities you love. Everyone has different needs based on the conditions of their bodies. There is no cookie-cutter approach to health andwellness, as one treatment plan may not work the same for one person as it would for another. Your physical therapist will work closely with you to evaluate your mobility, balance, range of motion, and severity of pain. Your physical goals will also be taken into account when creating your treatment plan, as well as any health risks that may be holding you back. At your initial evaluation, you may be asked to perform basicmovements, such as sittingdown, standing up, walking, lifting, stretching, or other motions. Once your physical therapist has a clear picture of what you need, he or she will begin constructing a treatment plan to help relieve your pain and achieve your goals. In the end, an active lifestyle is more than possible, even if you
struggle with chronic pain. If you are looking to improve your health, strength, and physical activity, look no further – FYZICAL is here to help.
