The sit to stand exercise helps strengthen your qu

The sit to stand exercise helps strengthen your quads and gluts (the large muscles in your thighs and butt). Keeping these muscles strong will help reduce your risk of a fall.

How to perform: Sit in a sturdy chair and place both feet on the floor about hip width apart. Stand using only your legs and slowly sit down again. You can hold your arms out in front of you or cross them.
*If this is too difficult you can use your arms (only as much as needed) or place a cushion in the chair to raise the seat height.

Are you looking to improve mobility while decreasi

Are you looking to improve mobility while decreasing pain? Physical therapy is a CDC recommended non-opioid approach for pain management.

Research has found that people who are treated by a physical therapist soon after their diagnosis for conditions such as back pain, knee pain, neck pain, and shoulder pain are less likely to be prescribed opioids later in their treatment.

“Do I need a physician referral to see a physica

“Do I need a physician referral to see a physical therapist?” That’s one of the most common questions we hear, and the answer is no. In the past, patients needed a referral, but with the health care reforms that were implemented in the last few years, you no longer need referrals for physical therapy with most insurance plans. Our team will verify your health benefits and is able to request a referral from your physician, if needed.
