Jane, a Maryville resident of Shannondale, was recently featured in a Daily Times article highlighting her visit to the Delozier family farm in Maryville where she got to see the farm’s acres of sunflower fields. Shannondale team members helped make her dream of visiting a sunflower field a reality after Breunig took a painting class at Shannondale and told Activities Director, Jen Krueger, about this item on her bucket list. The class had been painting the yellow gold flowers. Click the link below to read the full story!

Turn an obstacle into an opportunity. You're likely not the only one who hates taking the stairs, but when you choose to do that rather than the elevator or an escalator you're putting your health first. Climbing up and down stairs engages lots of muscles in your body, and is a great way to work out without thinking about it. https://shannondaletn.com/wellpark/

Movement is medicine. People can start developing osteoarthritis or inflammation of the joints as early as 30 years old. Although there is no cure, exercise can help. That may be the last thing you want to do when your body aches, but research shows walking, swimming, biking, yoga and water aerobics can all help. If joint pain or stiffness makes activity difficult, work with one of our physical therapists to help you feel better again.

Injuries, joint or back pain, or past surgeries often get in the way of daily life. The little things that mean so much, like chasing your grandkids at the park, walking your dog, or a day at the golf course can be difficult and painful. June is National Men's Health Month, and it's a time to consider ways to improve your health and well-being--and live your life to the fullest. With physical therapy, men can experience improved physical well-being, better management of health conditions, and a foundation for long-term health maintenance. This month, start the journey of saying goodbye to pain and hello to the rest of your life. https://shannondaletn.com/wellpark/

Taking control of your fitness doesn't have to be a solo journey. Have a significant other or friend join you. One study showed that married couples who worked out together had a dropout rate of only 6.3%, compared with 43% for couples who worked out separately. That's huge! And on top of that another study showed that people who work out with a partner exercise 3 times as long as those who exercise alone. https://shannondaletn.com/wellpark/

When you see the sun shine through your blinds and awaken to start your day, you may first yawn and stretch. Stretching first thing in the morning can relieve tension or pain that’s caused by sleeping through the night, something many people don't consider in their younger years. Here are the top five stretches you want to do to start your day: Standing Chest Stretch, Knees-To-Chest Stretch, Forward Fold Stretch, Standing Oblique Stretch and Standing Quad Stretch.

Stretching has many benefits, including increased mobility, stability, balance, circulation, and better digestion. Experiencing this difference can help you with your wellness journey. This small commitment to your health each day will make you feel better, too!
