▪ Maximizing 💪
Want to get the most out of your sessions? Try pairing physio with these supportive habits:

✨ 1. Daily Movement – Gentle walks, stretching, strengthening or mobility drills keep the momentum going.
🥗 2. Good Nutrition – Healing tissues love hydration, protein, and nutritious foods.
🧘‍♂️ 3. Stress Management – Breathing exercises or meditation can ease tension and boost recovery.
🛌 4. Quality Sleep – Rest is important for muscle rebuilding and recovery.
💧 5. Hydration – Supports joint lubrication and tissue health.

Remember: Physical therapy isn’t just what happens at your appointment—it’s everything you do to support your healing journey.

-massage therapy
-acupuncture
-chiropractic care
-osteopathy
-nutrition counselling
-psychotherapy
-personal training
-group fitness classes

Traps

The trapezius muscles help to stabilize the shoulder blade, and are also involved in posture.
For many of us, these muscles carry a lot of tension.

Try this simple technique with some slow, deep breaths to help improve tension in your traps.
