⭐ Facebook Post for Your Thanksgiving Football Injuries Blog

🦃🏈 TURKEY BOWL INJURIES ARE BACK!
Every Thanksgiving, millions of Americans lace up their 10-year-old sneakers, declare “I’ve still got it,” and then… immediately pull a hamstring.

If YOUR family’s Thanksgiving football game turned into a “non-contact injury highlight reel,” we’ve got you covered. 😂

From calf strains to back spasms to that classic “I planted and something popped,” FYZICAL sees it all the day after Thanksgiving.

👉 Check out our NEW blog:
“Thanksgiving Football Injuries: Why the Turkey Bowl Sends So Many People to PT.”
It’s funny. It’s painfully relatable. And it might help you avoid limping through Black Friday.

🔥 Is your MRI trying to convince you your spine is falling apart?
Spoiler: It’s not. 😅

Most people who come to FYZICAL walk in with words like “sciatica,” “degenerative disc disease,” or “disc herniation” hanging over their head like a bad fortune cookie. The problem? These terms sound way scarier than they actually are.

👉 “Degenerative Disc Disease” = the spinal version of wrinkles.
👉 Disc herniations? Tons of people have them with ZERO pain.
👉 Sciatica doesn’t automatically mean surgery.
👉 And your spine is not, in fact, crumbling like an old building.

We just dropped a new blog breaking down the biggest myths about sciatica and low back pain—and explaining how physical therapy can help you feel better without scary procedures, doom-and-gloom diagnoses, or Googling yourself into panic.

If you’ve been told your MRI looks like “a mess”…
Or if your leg has been zinging, zapping, or zinging only when you stand wrong…
Or you just want the truth about what’s actually causing your pain…

Your back isn’t broken. It’s just asking for some expert guidance—and that’s what we do best at FYZICAL.

💙 Move better. Feel better. Live better.

🌟 Tired of muscle pain, tightness, or limited mobility? 🌟

At FYZICAL Therapy & Balance Centers, we’re excited to offer dry needling — a safe and effective way to release muscle tension, reduce pain, and help you move better.

💉 What is dry needling?
It’s a modern physical therapy technique that uses very thin needles to target “trigger points” in tight muscles. The result? Relief from pain, improved mobility, and faster recovery.

✨ Benefits of dry needling include:
✔ Reduces pain and inflammation
✔ Releases stubborn muscle knots
✔ Improves flexibility and function
✔ Speeds recovery for athletes and active adults

💬 Q&A Highlight:
❓ Is it covered by insurance?
👉 Currently, insurance does not cover dry needling. At FYZICAL, we offer it as an out-of-pocket service for $50 per session.

📖 Want to learn more about how dry needling works and if it might be right for you?
👉 Read our full blog here: https://www.fyzical.com/mentor-oh/blog/Benefits-of-Dry-Needling-20906

At FYZICAL, our mission is simple: helping you love your life again — pain-free and in motion. 💙

🌟 Hope After Stroke 🌟

At FYZICAL Therapy & Balance Centers, we believe recovery doesn’t stop after the first few months. Stroke survivors deserve every opportunity to regain strength, independence, and confidence.

That’s why we’re proud to be partnering with Vivistim® Paired VNS System – an FDA-approved breakthrough that pairs vagus nerve stimulation with therapy to help restore arm and hand function, even years after a stroke.

For many, Vivistim represents something powerful: hope when progress feels out of reach.

We are honored to bring this innovative therapy to our community and to stand alongside stroke survivors on their journey of recovery.
