Light the Lamp Physical Therapy

When an injury or surgery sidetracks a person, they often receive a referral to a physical therapist. PTs help people regain mobility, manage pain, and recover more quickly. Through , a referral is no longer required and a PT can be your first call!

🤸‍♂️ Since PTs understand body mechanics and health, they advocate living a healthy lifestyle and understand that exercise and movement are essential elements for preventing disease.

💫 A great way to observe this day is to simply get up and get moving (or do your mobility work!😁)

✨ An acupressure mat is a therapeutic tool that applies targeted pressure to specific points on the body, based on principles of traditional acupressure.

🔺 The mat’s hundreds of small, raised points stimulate nerve endings and increase local blood circulation, which can help reduce muscle tension, alleviate pain, and promote relaxation.

💪 Like most things in physical therapy and rehab, a well-rounded approach works best — which makes acupressure mats a potential addition to your recovery toolkit. (We tend to pair it with a Normatec Recovery Boots session!)

Today we remember and celebrate Dr. Michael Ross on his birthday 💙💛

Michael wasn’t just a brilliant sports medicine physician—he was a light in every room, and a friend.

Even during treatment days he found ways to stay active. He taught us that strength isn’t just physical—it’s how you carry yourself when life gets hard.

And not to take yourself, or life, too seriously.

And to do fun things 💙💛

Often overshadowed, a strong soleus = stronger knees, better performance, and longevity in your sport. Don’t sleep on this underrated muscle. 💪

✅ Acts as a key stabilizer for the knee + ACL, reducing anterior tibial translation
✅ Absorbs load with every stride, cut, and landing
✅ Reduces risk of Achilles issues

Whether you’re an athlete or looking to preserve functional fitness, incorporating soleus-targeted exercises into routines can offer wide-reaching benefits. Try these out!

Big thanks to for the demo 🔥 🔥

🎒💪 Load your gear smart—and let your backpack work with your body, not against it. Here’s how to do it like a pro (or a PT):

👉Load < 10–15% of body weight — don't overload it!
👉Use both straps — balances the load, prevents uneven stress.
👉Pack heavy items close to your back — stabilizes your center of mass.
👉Snug fit = better posture — keep the pack high, not dangling low.
👉Bring performance into the gear itself — like this backpack from Iron+Steel Threads (pictured 🤩)

Proper mechanics here = less strain, better posture, and more energy for sport + training. 👊
