Maintaining good posture is one of the most import

Maintaining good posture is one of the most important things you can do on a daily basis to maintain long term health and reduce chronic pain ✅

According to Dr. George Salem, an NIH-funded researcher at the University of Southern California, “Posture is not only about how well you sit, but how well you move and go about your daily life.” 💪🏼🦵🏼That is why we always take a look at how you MOVE your body, not just how you sit or stand!

"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.

Rehab services can help support you, your loved ones, your colleagues and friends. Mental, emotional, and physical health ailments do not need to keep you from living your best life. 💫

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. 👐🏼⠀
