💪🏼Dr. Marissa was the CREW 8 week fitness challenge winner in the female division. 💪🏼

8 weeks of showing up for myself and my future self. I gained 2.7 lbs of muscle in 8 weeks.

As a physical therapist, I talk a lot about strength, consistency, and trusting the process…but this was a great reminder to live it too.

Muscle doesn’t come from perfection. It comes from showing up, staying consistent, and putting in the work. Every workout, every rep, every small decision added up.

Your future self is built by what you do today.

A lot of people in pain think their first stop should be a physician, but starting with physical therapy can actually get you better faster.

You do not need a referral to see Proven Physical Therapy.
☑ Less wait time: no waiting to get in to see a physician or orthopedic physician just to be told to try PT.
☑ Lower healthcare costs: avoid unnecessary imaging, medications, or specialists visits when you see PT first.
☑ Faster results: You feel better faster because you get to treatment earlier. A movement-based approach is what many people need.

Physical Therapists are trained to evaluate, diagnose, and treat pain. If something more serious is going on, they'll refer you to the right provider.

Proven Physical Therapy can save you time, money, and frustration... all while getting you back to what you love sooner.

Happy International Women’s Day! 💜

At Proven Physical Therapy, I’m grateful to work with incredible women every day - helping them stay strong, active, and confident through physical therapy, training, and pelvic health.

From pregnancy and postpartum to athletics and menopause, women deserve support for their bodies at every stage of life.

Here’s to strong women and taking care of our health. 💪

There is no perfect exercise or way to exercise. Consistency is what yields results. Just get started and stay consistent!

Once you build confidence and consistency, then it’s easier to dial into what is going to help you reach your goals.

If you workout on a regular basis you are already ahead of a majority of the population!

Not sure where to start? Call or text Proven. We offer remote or in person programming. 712-318-1919

✨Patient Testimonial✨

“I was dealing with pain while running and repeated injuries that kept sidelining me. I was starting to think that it was all part of aging and something that I needed to accept. Fortunately, I decided to go to Proven Physical Therapy, and I’m so glad I did! Marissa was incredibly knowledgeable and thorough. She took the time to address not just the obvious issues, but also pelvic health factors that were contributing. Her targeted approach was spot-on. Now I’m running completely pain-free and feeling stronger than before. My only regret is not seeing Marissa sooner!”

-Active Mom & Runner

How many weeks, months, years have you been telling yourself you’ll start taking care of yourself? You’ll get stronger later. You’ll work on your balance later. You’ll worry about bone health later.

It shouldn’t be the norm to not be able to get off the floor without help, to not be able to walk through the store without a cart, to avoid certain things because you’re afraid to fall.

It doesn’t matter if you’re 30 or 60 - what you do right now predicts how you age.

You have a choice to make… choose wisely.

03/03/2026

Instability limits the amount of weight you can lift.

Using a bench for a single leg RDL gives you added stability so you can truly load the working leg and build strength. When balance is the limiting factor, your muscles don’t get the full stimulus they need. By taking some of that balance demand away, you can focus on hinging well, controlling the movement, and progressively adding weight.

There is a time and place for balance work… it’s just not when you’re trying to build true strength.

Stay tuned for some of Dr. Marissa’s favorite balance and stability exercises.
