Longer days and sunny weekends mean more outdoor fun—but sometimes, summer activities can lead to unexpected aches and pains.

If your back is sore or your joints feel stiff after a weekend of gardening, hiking, or beach trips, it might be time to rethink your habits.

Here are 3 common summer mistakes that could be making your pain worse — and how physical therapy can help you stay active and pain-free all season long:

1️⃣ Overdoing It on the Weekends
Jumping straight into high-energy activities can cause muscle fatigue or joint pain. Try warming up with stretches, pacing yourself, and taking breaks to rest and hydrate.

2️⃣ Wearing the Wrong Footwear
Flip-flops and sandals might feel great but often lack support, leading to foot, knee, and back pain. Opt for shoes with good arch support, especially if you’re on your feet a lot.

3️⃣ Ignoring Minor Pain Signals
That little ache might be your body’s way of asking for help. Don’t push through pain — physical therapy can provide effective, non-invasive care to keep you moving.

You deserve a pain-free summer filled with the activities you love!

At Aspire Wellness, we customize physical therapy plans and offer innovative treatments like SoftWave Therapy to get you feeling your best.

True or False: You should only stretch after a summer workout.

💡 Bonus tip: Hydration helps keep your muscles flexible too—so don’t forget your water bottle!

While stretching after a workout is important for recovery, stretching before you move—especially in the summer heat—is just as important for injury prevention and performance. 🏃‍♀️🌞

Before your walk, hike, or swim, try dynamic stretches like leg swings, arm circles, or gentle lunges to get your muscles warm and ready. Save the static stretches (the longer holds) for after your activity when your muscles are warm and more pliable.

Answer: FALSE! 🚫

If you’re looking for a workout that goes beyond just burning calories, Pilates might just be your new best friend.

Whether you’re a fitness newbie or a seasoned athlete, Pilates offers incredible benefits that make it worth adding to your routine — and here’s why:

1. Build Core Strength That Supports Your Whole Body
Pilates focuses heavily on strengthening your core muscles — think abs, lower back, hips, and pelvis. A strong core isn’t just about looking toned; it improves posture, reduces back pain, and enhances overall stability in daily movements.

2. Improve Flexibility and Mobility
Unlike some workouts that focus mainly on strength or cardio, Pilates blends controlled movement with stretching. This means you’ll gain greater flexibility and joint mobility, which helps prevent injuries and keeps your body feeling younger and more agile.

3. Enhance Mind-Body Connection
Pilates is as much about mental focus as it is physical movement. Each exercise requires concentration on breathing, alignment, and precision. This mindfulness aspect helps reduce stress, improve body awareness, and can even boost mental clarity outside the studio.

4. Low Impact, High Results
If you have joint issues, injuries, or just want a gentler workout that still challenges your muscles, Pilates is perfect. It’s low impact but highly effective, making it accessible for all ages and fitness levels.

5. Boost Athletic Performance and Injury Prevention
Many professional athletes incorporate Pilates into their training to improve balance, coordination, and muscle control. By strengthening stabilizing muscles, you reduce the risk of common injuries and improve your overall performance.

6. Adaptable for Every Body
No matter your shape, size, or fitness level, Pilates can be tailored to fit your needs. From beginner mat classes to advanced reformer sessions, you can progress at your own pace while safely challenging your body.

Ready to experience the transformative power of Pilates? We have a class running every Thursday night at 6:30 PM. Call (440) 632-5814 option 7 to reserve your spot.

Your body and mind will thank you!
