🦴 World Osteoporosis Day – October 20 🦴
Osteoporosis is a condition that weakens bones, making them more fragile and prone to fractures — even from minor falls or injuries. It can affect any bone in the body, including those in the feet and ankles, which play a crucial role in your mobility and balance.

✅ Healthy bone tips:
• Get enough calcium and vitamin D
• Stay active with weight-bearing exercises
• Avoid smoking and limit alcohol use
• Talk to your healthcare provider about bone density screenings

Strong bones support you from the ground up — literally! Take steps today to protect your bone health and keep moving confidently. 👣

If you experience symptoms such as weakness, tingling, sharp pain, numbness, or a burning sensation in your feet, it may be from neuropathy or nerve entrapment.

Neuropathy is a generalized term that indicates your symptoms are caused by nerves. It is important to try to find the cause of your nerve symptoms to see what treatment is most appropriate.

Nerve entrapment occurs when your nerves become pinched or compressed. The most recognized nerve entrapment is carpal tunnel but there are multiple areas on your lower legs that can also get pinched. This means your nerves have pressure on them, causing them to become swollen and inflamed. Without treatment, nerve entrapment can become permanent.

Through recovery from injuries, management of chronic conditions, and support in staying active, physical therapy helps people move better and feel stronger every day.

It’s also a time to raise awareness about the benefits of physical therapy and to thank these dedicated professionals for the difference they make in our communities. 💙
