As we embrace the colder, darker days of the year, restorative yoga offers a beautiful opportunity to nourish our bodies with the rest and rejuvenation they crave. With the holiday season upon us and the mood shifts that often accompany shorter daylight hours, it’s common for our bodies to feel overwhelmed by stress and fatigue.

Restorative yoga is a gentle practice specifically designed to tune into your body’s needs and replenish its energy reserves through mindful movements. Unlike more vigorous styles of yoga, restorative yoga encourages you to move slowly, holding poses for several minutes. This extended time allows you to deeply relax, sinking into each pose and finding peace in intentional stillness.

This season, prioritize your well-being by giving yourself the gift of tranquility. Explore some of our favorite restorative poses—check out the graphics for inspiration! Your body and mind will thank you. 🌟🧘‍♀️

🌟 Supporting Lifelong Health Through Physical Therapy 🌟

At every age and stage of life, physical therapy plays a crucial role in maintaining health and well-being. Let’s take a moment to highlight a remarkable journey of one of our patients, 72-year-old Helen, who turned her life around with physical therapy.

👵 Helen’s Story:
After her knee replacement surgery, Helen faced challenges that made her feel limited and frustrated. She missed gardening, her favorite pastime, and spending time with her grandchildren. Through tailored manual physical therapy sessions, we focused on hands-on techniques, as well as strengthening her knee and improving her overall mobility.

Over the weeks, Helen not only regained her strength but also learned techniques to prevent future injuries. Now? She’s back in her garden, planting flowers and chasing her grandkids around the yard! 🌸🌼

Why Physical Therapy Matters:
👉 For Children: PT helps young athletes recover from injuries and improve their performance, ensuring they stay active and healthy.
👉 For Young Adults: It addresses issues like posture and ergonomics, especially for those in demanding jobs or sports.
👉 For Midlife: We tackle age-related concerns, helping patients manage chronic pain and maintain an active lifestyle.
👉 For Older Adults: Customized programs focus on balance, strength, and flexibility, allowing seniors to stay independent and engaged in their communities.

🌈 Let’s Move Together:
Physical therapy isn’t just about recovery; it’s about empowering individuals to live their best lives, no matter their age. Whether it’s running a marathon or simply walking to the mailbox, we’re here to support every step of the way!

💚 Today is World Mental Health Day!

Continuing to talk openly about mental health is how we move forward in the right direction. These conversations foster confidence, awareness, and empathy, creating space for those seeking support and guidance.

Together, we can flip the script on mental health and cultivate an environment where support flourishes and progress thrives in our communities.

In order to break through the stigma surrounding mental health, it is crucial to break down the facts. Here are a few statistics from NAMI (The National Alliance on Mental Illness):

🔎 1 in 5 U.S. adults experience mental illness
🔎 1 in 20 U.S. adults experience serious mental illness
🔎 1 in 6 U.S. youth aged 6-17 experience a mental health condition
🔎 In 2023, 53.9% of U.S. adults with mental illness received treatment
🔎 83% of employees agree mental health and well-being training would be important in creating a positive workplace culture. But 7 in 10 senior-level employees say they haven’t received training to talk about mental health at work

A clear takeaway from these stats is the imbalance between mental health and support received. This is at the heart of Mental Illness Awareness Week.

For many, the need for support is known and desired, however, the ability to find it or find care tailored to individual needs proves to be difficult. Helping bridge this disparity, NAMI’s website is full of tools and resources to help find the support you need. They also provide ways to fundraise for further research - another critical component of improving the response to mental health.

October is Health Literacy Month!

Health literacy is all about understanding and using health information to make informed choices about your health and wellness. It’s not just about reading pamphlets or websites; it’s about feeling confident in your health decisions.

Why Does Health Literacy Matter?
For You: Start by having open conversations with your healthcare providers. Don’t hesitate to ask questions—no question is too small! Your healthcare team is here to support you and provide the information you need to feel empowered about your health.

For Healthcare Providers: It’s also important for healthcare organizations to share information in ways that are clear and easy to understand. Here are some simple steps they can take:
👉 Teach patients how to navigate healthcare portals.
👉 Make websites user-friendly.
👉 Keep information up-to-date with the latest research and best practices.

Helpful Resource: Check out Myhealthfinder (https://odphp.health.gov/myhealthfinder) for a great, free resource to help you find the health information you need.

Let’s work together toward better health literacy for everyone! If you have questions or want to share your own experiences, feel free to comment below. Your voice matters!

At Hands On Health, we see healing as more than just “fixing the body.” 💡
We use the biopsychosocial model—which means we treat the whole person, not just the injury.

🧠 Mind: your thoughts, emotions, and beliefs matter.
💪 Body: strength, mobility, and healing tissues.
🌎 Social: family, work, community, and environment.

✨ When we connect these dots in an integrative, team-based approach, recovery becomes deeper, more sustainable, and more empowering.
