Do your doctors brag about you?
Ours do! Kayla took the time to share with us that a patient who had been struggling with pain for months found relief after just one treatment.
We’re lucky to have doctors who care this much 💪🌳

🌿 Today is a bittersweet day at Strong Oaks! 🌿

We’re saying goodbye to Emma as she heads back to school to continue pursuing her Doctor of Physical Therapy degree. Emma has been such a wonderful part of our team, and we will truly miss her here at the clinic. We’re so excited to see where her path leads and can’t wait to cheer her on in the future! 💚

At the same time, we’re thrilled to welcome Reneé to our Strong Oaks family! Reneé has deep roots in this community, where she’s lived, worked, and raised her family. Reneé brings both experience and a warm, welcoming personality that make her such a great fit for our clinic. When she’s not at the clinic, you’ll likely find her biking, kayaking, gardening—or knitting something beautiful (she’s incredibly talented!). With her great energy and many skills, she’s already fitting right in, and we couldn’t be happier to have her with us.

Please join us in wishing Emma all the best on her journey and giving Reneé a big Strong Oaks welcome! 💪🌳

How Do You Sit? Let’s Talk Posture!

Whether you’re working at a desk, driving, or binge-watching your favorite show, how you sit matters more than you think. Poor posture adds up over time, leading to back pain, tight hips, and even headaches. 😖

Here are a few Strong Oaks posture tips:
✅ Feet flat on the floor
✅ Hips and knees at 90 degrees
✅ Sit tall—don’t slouch or lean
✅ Keep screens at eye level
✅ Take movement breaks every 30–60 mins

Be honest… what’s your go-to sitting style?

🧘 Perfectly Postured

🛋️ Couch Curler
🪑 Perched on the Edge
🌀 Constantly Re-adjusting

Tight muscles? Chronic pain? Limited mobility? Dry Needling could be your secret weapon!

✅ Helps release trigger points
✅ Reduces pain & tension
✅ Speeds up recovery

Good to know:
Dry needling is usually an out-of-pocket expense, as insurance doesn't typically cover it. The great news? Our dry needling services are incredibly affordable, making this effective treatment accessible to you. $40 on its own. Or just $20 when added to another treatment!
Take the next step for your recovery and book now!

No barriers. Just results.
Ask us if Dry Needling is right for you!
