Holiday Walking Tip:

A simple walk is one of the easiest ways to stay active over the holidays — it fits into almost any schedule and delivers big benefits. Aim for 20–30 minutes of brisk walking each day to boost circulation, loosen stiff joints, lift your mood, and support heart health, even when it’s cold outside.

You can split that time into two shorter walks to make it more manageable and purposeful:
- After lunch — helps digestion
- After dinner — reduces stress and aids relaxation

If pain or injury makes walking uncomfortable, the team at Rutherford Physiotherapy & Sports Injury Clinic can help. We’ll assess your movement, pinpoint the issues, and design a gentle, personalized plan to get you walking confidently and comfortably again.

Move more, feel better — one step at a time. 💙🦶

DAILY BACK STRENGTHENING EXERCISE

Did you know that adding simple back exercises to your daily routine can greatly reduce back pain, improve posture, and enhance your overall strength and flexibility? 💪🧘‍♀️
Just 10 minutes a day can go a long way toward keeping your spine healthy and your body feeling its best! 🌿

👉 How to perform the exercises:

Bridge: Lie on your back with your knees bent and feet flat on the floor. Lift your hips slowly until your shoulders, hips, and knees form a straight line. Hold for 5–10 seconds, then lower down gently. Repeat 10–12 times.

Plank: Place your elbows under your shoulders and lift your body off the floor, keeping it straight from head to heels. Engage your core and hold for 20–30 seconds. Rest and repeat 2–3 times.

Gentle Stretch: Sit or stand tall, reach your arms overhead, and gently bend side to side. Hold each stretch for 10–15 seconds to loosen tight muscles.

Stay consistent, move mindfully, and your back will thank you! 🙌💫

🔥 Lunge Like a Pro 🔥

Strengthen your legs, improve balance, and protect your joints with proper form! Here's how to master the basic lunge:

1️⃣ Stand tall, feet hip-width apart, arms relaxed at your sides.
2️⃣ Step forward with your right foot, lowering until your thigh is parallel to the floor.
3️⃣ Keep your knee aligned above your ankle — don’t let it pass your toes!
4️⃣ Push through your right heel to return to standing.

💪 Repeat on both sides for a balanced workout!
📍 Great for rehab, strength training, and injury prevention.
