🍂 The Clocks Are Changing… So Should Our Habits! ⏰❄️

As we "fall back" and the days get shorter, it's easy to feel less motivated to stay active and healthy. But winter doesn't have to mean slowing down—just adjusting your routine! 💪

Here are a few tips to stay energized and well this season:

☀️ Get Morning Light – Take a short walk early in the day to boost mood and regulate your sleep cycle.

🏃 Keep Moving – Even 20 minutes of movement at home (yoga, stretching, or a quick HIIT session) can do wonders.

🗓️ Plan Ahead – Schedule your workouts and meals like appointments. Consistency is key!

🥤 Stay Hydrated – Cold weather makes it easy to forget water. Aim for 6–8 cups a day.

🥕 Eat Seasonally – Enjoy immune-boosting foods like citrus, root veggies, and leafy greens.

😴 Rest Well – Darkness can mess with sleep patterns. Keep a regular bedtime and limit screens at night.

Let’s support each other and make wellness a year-round habit! 💙 What’s your favorite way to stay active when it gets colder?

🍂 Fall into Balance, Not Accidents! 🧘‍♂️

Did you know that 1 in 4 adults over 65 experiences a fall each year? With autumn leaves, wet sidewalks, and shorter days, balance becomes even more important this time of year.

At Total Balance Therapy, our Therapists are here to help you stay steady on your feet with simple, effective balance exercises tailored for older adults. ✅

🧘‍♀️ Try these at home:
🔹 Tandem Stance — Stand heel-to-toe and hold for 10 seconds.
🔹 Sit-to-Stand — Practice rising from a chair without using your hands.
🔹 Single Leg Stance — Hold onto a countertop and lift one foot off the floor for 10 seconds. Switch legs.

💡 Pro Tip: Always practice near a stable surface and ask your PT what’s safe for you!

🍁 Don’t let a fall set you back this season. Ask us about personalized fall prevention programs for you or your loved ones.

📞 Call us today or message us to schedule a free balance screening!

🦵 Why Does Your Knee Hurt Going Downstairs?

Ever notice your knee aches or grinds when you go downstairs — but feels fine going up?

👉 That’s because going downstairs puts up to 4x your body weight through the joint as your quadriceps work eccentrically (slowly controlling your descent).

If your quads,hips,or glutes aren’t doing their share of the work — the kneecap area (patellofemoral joint) takes the extra load.
Add in a little stiffness, weakness, or poor alignment, and that downhill step can light things up fast.

💡 The fix isn’t just “rest” — it’s about restoring strength, control, and balance in your legs and hips.
At Total Balance Therapy, we help you retrain how your body moves — so stairs stop feeling like a mountain climb.

🏋️‍♀️ Small steps. Smart movement. Strong knees.
