Movement can tell you a lot about how your body is doing. 💙

Getting up from a chair, walking across uneven ground, climbing stairs or staying active without unusual fatigue can all be good indicators of your strength, balance and confidence.

Swipe through our Movement Confidence Checklist and take note of the areas that feel harder than they used to.

If several boxes are going unchecked, a physical therapist can help you build a personalized plan to move more comfortably, safely and confidently.

Pain doesn’t always have to be something you just “live with.” Know your options. 💜

🚨 Backpack check! 🚨 Did you know 96% of school-aged children carry backpacks that are too heavy?
Before your kids head off to school, take a quick look inside their backpack.
A few small adjustments can go a long way:
- Wear both straps.
- Keep it close to the body.
- Pack heavier items closest to their back and the top.
- Clean out unnecessary items often.
Because the only thing your child should be carrying this school year is confidence—not unnecessary back pain.
Is your child is experiencing ongoing back, neck, or shoulder pain? PT can help!
