"Rehabilitation has often been seen as a disability-specific service needed by only few of the population".

➡️ New research published in The Lancet in December 2019 speaks to the growing need of rehabilitation world-wide, with the highest demand in the Western Pacific region. The world's population is aging and the number of people living with non-communicable diseases and the consequences of injuries is increasing. The current demographic and health shifts are contributing to a rapid increase in the number of people experiencing disability or declines in functioning for substantially larger periods of their lives.

Inflammation - good or bad?! 🤔⠀
+⠀
Though strenuous exercise can initially cause acute inflammation (hello, muscle soreness), the body will release inflammatory markers to help heal itself and improve your muscle function. This is a healthy cycle as we build new muscles or challenge them in new ways - so keep up with your New Years' goals! 🚀⠀
+⠀
+⠀
However, chronic inflammation can be more silent and harder to detect. Signs can be in your skin, in the way you carry your weight, in your digestion, chronic aches/pains, or in your energy levels.⠀
+⠀
+⠀
There are many ways that we help clients mitigate chronic inflammation including healthy movement, mindfulness and breathing, massage, Acupuncture/IMS, and education! For more info on inflammation, check out the @mindbodygreen article in our link in bio or come in for a thorough assessment from one of our skilled therapists. 👐🏼⠀
