DID YOU KNOW? | Elbow bursitis can occur as a result of prolonged pressure.

Leaning on the tip of the elbow for long periods of time on hard surfaces, such as a tabletop, may cause the bursa to swell. Typically, this type of bursitis develops over several months.

DID YOU KNOW? | Most bike-related injuries we treat could’ve been prevented with just a few simple precautions.

We love seeing our community stay active—and biking is one of the best ways to enjoy the outdoors, get some exercise, and even commute. But whether you’re pedaling through the neighborhood or training for your next long ride, safety must come first.

Here are a few tips from our team (we’ve seen it all—trust us!):

🔹 Helmets aren’t optional. Even at low speeds, a fall can cause serious head or neck injuries.
🔹 Check your setup. A poorly fitted bike can strain your back, knees, and wrists over time.
🔹 Stay alert. Potholes, gravel, and distracted drivers can turn a good ride into a painful one.
🔹 Be visible. Reflectors, lights, and bright clothing can make all the difference—especially at dawn or dusk.

If a tumble off your bike has left you with pain—don’t tough it out. We’re here to help you recover and ride again.
