One of our patients who passed away from cancer once wrote: “You’ve only got 3 choices. Give up, give in, or give it all you got.”

A simple, but extremely powerful statement.

We are deeply grateful to those who have given everything in service to our country. May we never forget those who made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom. Thank you to all who have served and to their families.

In honor of Memorial Day, our clinic will be closed today.

This week, we got to tour the University of Montana training facilities and learned more about the integrated care, performance, and athlete development within athletic training and strength & conditioning. Such a great experience, and a beautiful facility with an incredible view!

We are grateful for the opportunity to collaborate with the University’s athletic trainers, coaches, and health professionals, and to provide physical therapy care and support for University of Montana Athletics and our community.

SORENESS VS. INJURY: HOW TO TELL THE DIFFERENCE
written by Maddie Leininger, PT, DPT

Are you getting out hiking, trail running, and enjoying the outdoors this spring? As activity levels increase, it’s normal to notice soreness, stiffness, or occasional aches as your body adapts to new or increased activity. Sometimes it can be difficult to tell the difference between normal activity-related soreness and symptoms that may benefit from a little more attention. Here’s a general breakdown.

Normal muscle soreness after activity is common and usually:
• Shows up a few hours to 48 hours later
• Feels dull, achy, tight, or stiff
• Affects larger muscle groups
• Improves as you move
• Resolves within a couple of days

Symptoms That May Need More Attention
• Sharp or pinpoint pain
• Symptoms you can easily reproduce
• One-sided or very specific discomfort
• Symptoms that change how you move
• Pain that lingers or repeatedly returns

In general, some soreness with activity is normal and expected. Your body is constantly adapting to the demands you place on it. The key is paying attention to whether symptoms gradually improve or continue becoming more sensitive or limiting over time.

Unsure of the difference? At Range, we offer free 15-minute consultations with a Doctor of Physical Therapy to talk through your symptoms and help guide you toward staying active and doing the things you love.

Sun, rain, hail, sleet, blizzards… oh my!

This weekend, Range’s physical therapist, Sarah Menhennett, DPT, took on the Garden City Gravel bike race while reppin’ Range! What started as a gravel ride turned into a Montana adventure with just about every season making an appearance, including a blizzard! What a wild ride!

Sarah is board-certified as both a Sports Clinical Specialist (SCS) and Orthopedic Clinical Specialist (OCS), and loves helping athletes and active individuals stay healthy, strong, and doing what they love. From biking injuries and bike fitting to performance optimization and injury prevention, she provides individualized care tailored to your goals.

Outside the clinic, Sarah is passionate about triathlons, running, biking, swimming, and hiking, so she understands the demands of endurance sports firsthand!

Are you an outdoor athlete in Missoula? Give us a call to schedule with Sarah Menhennett, PT, DPT, SCS, OCS for injury prevention, rehabilitation, and performance-focused care!

stop by The Patio at Rattlesnake Market on Saturday, May 16 from 8am-12pm for coffee + a good cause

May 16th is World CDG Awareness Day, a cause that is incredibly close to our hearts.

This Saturday, May 16th, we’ll be “working for Davie” in honor of our granddaughter and all families affected by CDG.

From 8 AM–12 PM, coffee drinks will be on us, and in lieu of paying for your coffee, we invite you to consider making a donation to CDG CARE.

Congenital Disorders of Glycosylation (CDG) are a group of more than 190 rare genetic conditions, many of which currently have no approved treatments. Every donation helps support awareness, advocacy, family support, and research for those living with CDG.

Thank you for helping us spread awareness and love within our community 🤍

With love and gratitude,
Karen and Barrett Byrne

meet Sarah Lucero, LMT ✨
Licensed Massage Therapist

I was raised north of Missoula on the Flathead Indian Reservation with the Mission Mountain Range in my backyard in St. Ignatius, MT. I have always been inspired by the endless amounts of things to learn while experiencing the outdoors with friends and family. And I also know the importance of taking care of our bodies so that we can continue to recreate in the outdoors for work and pleasure. I am a graduate of Sacred Roots Massage School of Montana, where I completed 750 hour Massage Certification and was able to embark on my career as a Massage Therapist. I have always been enthralled with health and wellness, and going through my massage therapy program only deepened my appreciation for the human body and all its capabilities. As a Massage Therapist I am passionate about full-body relaxation and therapeutic massage techniques. I look forward to meeting my clients where they are today, with compassion and grace.
​
When I am not working, I am obsessed with my dog Flora, cooking with friends, landscaping, swimming in the rivers, boating, mountain biking and snowboarding.
