Resolve to Refresh and Rejuvinate with Movement in the New Year
Jennifer Kummrow2023-12-20T16:02:58+00:00With the new year approaching, many of us are setting goals for personal and professional growth. While working to achieve these goals, it’s important that we remember to prioritize the our bodies, the machines that keep our lives running! Physical therapy can play an essential role in strengthening our resolutions for a healthier, active lifestyle. This new year, let’s not let our injuries limit us from achieving our health and wellness goals. Check out some ways that physical therapy can be beneficial for you when working to become your healthiest ‘elf’!
- Say goodbye to chronic pain!
So many of us have gotten used to chronic pain and pushed it off as something that we just ‘have to deal with’. Our physiotherapists can identify where the pain is coming from and develop a plan of care to help address your discomfort.
- Prevent injuries, before they are injuries!
Whether you’re new to working out or have an extremely active lifestyle, everyone has things they can improve on. Addressing our weaknesses and possible incorrect movement patterns can help reduce the risk of future injuries.
- Move for Mobility!
Improving your flexibility and joint function will help you move with ease. Increasing your range of motion will allow you to move freely and have fewer limitations when working on your health goals.
- Set realistic, ACHIEVABLE goals
Striving to improve your health is a lifelong quest. Working with a professional can help you set goals that are achievable. It’s easy to get in over your head when working towards a goal, but by setting smaller achievable goals will make your hard work more productive.
- Mindful resolutions
Incorporating mindfulness can help with stress reduction and keep your mind right. Intentional movement will help you not only prioritize your physical health, but also prioritize your overall wellbeing.
