Walk With a Doc at the Soldotna Fieldhouse

📅 Wednesday, October 1
🕠 7:30 – 8:30 a.m.
📍 Soldotna Fieldhouse | 538 Arena Ave., Soldotna

Sarah Pyhala, PT, DPT - Topic: "Gait Mechanics"
What is Gait Mechanics?

Gait mechanics refer to the way our body moves when we walk or run. They involve a coordinated pattern of movements that keep us moving forward in a safe, smooth way.

Why Does It Matter?
Healthy gait mechanics support:

✅ Balance

✅ Shock absorption

✅ Energy efficiency

Why You Should Join:
Understanding gait can help you recognize problems caused by injuries or health conditions. Sarah Pyhala will explain how physical therapists use strength training and gait training to improve movement, prevent injuries, and restore confidence.

As always, Walk With a Doc is FREE to attend! Grab a friend and come learn how every step plays a role in your overall health and mobility!
