Tall, taller, tallest? Nope. Today’s photo is organized in descending height order, as nature intended. ☕️

This Friday’s coffee tasting at Counter Culture brought together three community builders, two local women-owned businesses and , and (apparently) a perfectly organized height chart.

We’re celebrating Dr. Gretchen Zalis’ first full week as a full-time physical therapist at Union Square Physical Therapy, and this moment feels especially meaningful because Blanca Alcaraz is the one who introduced us in the first place. Seeing all three of us together this morning felt a little full-circle.

One of our core values at Union Square PT is being present in the community we serve. Today’s coffee tasting wasn’t just about the absolutely delicious coffee—it was about connecting with neighbors, supporting local businesses, learning what’s happening around Union Square, and building relationships that make this neighborhood such a special place.

We even had the chance to invite a few new friends to our Open House on Thursday, June 11, from 6–8 PM. Whether you’re a patient, neighbor, fellow business owner, or just curious about what we’re building, we’d love to see you there.

Here’s to community, collaboration, new beginnings, and coffee shared with good people. ☕️🥂

Cheers!

Weekend in review: our second Women’s Wellness Weekend in Lincoln, New Hampshire ⛰️

This weekend was a reminder of what can happen when we intentionally create space — space to slow down, zoom out, connect, move, rest, laugh, reflect, and restore.

Over the course of a few days, we shared nourishing meals, daily yoga and movement practices, meditation, vision boarding, walks along the Pemigewasset River, quiet moments with books and journals, and many conversations over tea and treats. There was time for deep reflection and plenty of laughter.

One of the most meaningful parts of the weekend was watching community build in real time: welcoming back women who joined us last year while creating space for new connections and friendships to form. Different backgrounds, different seasons of life — all coming together with openness and support.

It continues to affirm something I believe deeply: wellness is often easier, more sustainable, and more joyful when done in community. ❤️

Thank you to everyone who spent the weekend with us and helped make it such a special experience.

And… there’s already momentum building. 👀 We’ve heard requests for another retreat this fall, so stay tuned — an October weekend may be in the works (TBD). We’re also planning to return again in 2027.

Two future opportunities to join us, connect, reset, and invest in your wellbeing may be coming soon.

Until then: keep moving, keep resting, keep nourishing yourself, and keep making space for what matters.

Tag yourself, tag someone you met this weekend, or tag a friend who’d want to join us next time

When I first started seeing folks from the Union Square community three years ago, I didn’t know if I would get to see a patient after surgery like I did in the insurance based world. Tori brought Wes in to get his leg back on track after a skiing accident and now he is back to the mountains - the lesson is … always listen to Tori! Three years later..

Cheering on Youxi and her therapy pup Bleu as they take on their Doggy 5K this weekend 🐾💙
They’re running (and wagging!) for an amazing cause—raising awareness and support for canine cancer research. We’re so proud to have them as part of our community at Union Square Physical Therapy.
