Did you know your metabolic health can affect your shoulder mobility? 🤔

Frozen shoulder isn’t always “just a shoulder problem.” Research shows that people with diabetes are nearly 4 times more likely to develop frozen shoulder compared to those without diabetes.

Researchers have also linked increased risk to factors like:
• Poor blood sugar control
• Obesity
• High blood pressure
• Chronic inflammation

Frozen shoulder can lead to significant pain, stiffness, loss of motion, sleep disruption, and difficulty with everyday activities, such as reaching overhead or getting dressed.

It’s another reminder that overall health and joint health are closely connected 💪

If shoulder pain or stiffness has been slowing you down, call now or book an appointment with our team!

Pickleball is fun… until your shoulder or elbow says otherwise 🥒🏓

Quick direction changes, repetitive swings, and sudden lunges can strain the shoulders, wrists, and lower back if you’re not prepared. Proper warm-ups, strength training, and recovery habits can make a big difference in helping you stay on the court longer and pain-free.

Time to shine a light on risk factors for heart disease. ❤️

New research has found that night light exposure increases the risk of heart disease.

Even when factoring in other risk factors like physical activity, smoking, alcohol, diet, and sleep duration, exposure to light still increases the risk!

So put away your phone, turn off the TV and the lights, and make sure you have dark curtains to create a dark sleeping environment. 💡

Did you know that up to 66% of women experience diastasis recti after pregnancy? 🤰

Diastasis recti is a separation of the abdominal muscles that happens as the body changes during pregnancy.

For some, this can lead to low back pain, core weakness, and pelvic floor issues. Your core is important for daily movements like lifting, carrying, and getting back to exercise.

Call our office or book an appointment to start moving with confidence again. 💪
