Do you use a smartphone?📱

Of course you do. There’s a good chance you are reading this on your phone right now.

A recent study recommends avoiding leaning your head forward by more than 20 degrees when using your phone. Keep your cell phone positioned so your head stays aligned with your spine.

While we can’t avoid using our phones, we can be mindful of how we hold them and how long we spend in any one position. 👍

nkle sprains are very common, whether you’re an athlete or just going about your day. Adding balance exercises to your recovery can strengthen your ankle and help prevent future sprains. ⚖️

Interestingly, how well you do in balance tests is linked to how strong your ankle and hip muscles are.

If you’ve recently sprained your ankle, book an appointment with us to help speed up your recovery! 🗓️

While tennis elbow is commonly considered a sports injury, it is also common in those who work with their hands.✋

Gripping activities like working with tools frequently overload the elbow tendons, causing tennis elbow.

This means that part of the treatment needs to include strengthening exercises for the forearm muscles to prevent overloading.

Knee pain going up and downstairs? 🦵

Patellofemoral pain syndrome is a condition that leads to pain around the knee cap, which is worse when walking stairs.

While treatment typically focuses on strengthening the knee and hip, a recent review found that adjustments to the lower back were also beneficial for reducing pain.

This highlights why we assess the entire body to see other areas that might be contributing to your pain! 🙌

🧠💪 Movement matters—especially for chronic pain.

New research shows that regular physical activity can lower the risk of long-term pain in the neck, back, hips, and even migraines. Sitting too much? That’s linked to more pain.

The benefits were more substantial in people with lower inflammation and better overall health, so personalized care is key.

If pain is holding you back, we can help create a plan that fits your body and goals. Check out this helpful guide for more on physical activity! https://bit.ly/4nDPKwl
