I t’s Easy To Stay Healthy! IMPROVING HEALTH & FITNESS
Many common aches and pains stem from tight muscles and poor movement. We were made to move and today’s lifestyle of sitting in the car, at work and at home, means tighter muscles. In addition, as we age our connective and muscle tissues naturally become stiffer. Therefore, the older you get, the more important a daily stretching routine becomes. (continued inside)

A PLANK A DAY KEEPS THE DOCTOR AT BAY
A plank is a simple exercise that anyone can do to improve their core strength. This exercise helps you strengthen so many of your muscles, guiding them to work together. Your core muscles are vital to the health of your low back and spine. If you suffer from an achy back or neck, then try doing this exercise to feel better.
How to do a plank (If you are unsure about doing this exercise, call us first)
1. Start by lying face down. You may want to put a pillow under your abdomen if it is uncomfortable to lie flat. 2. Bring your elbows underneath you, then gently rise up onto your elbows and knees, so that your abdomen is off the floor. 3. Keep your abdomen tucked gently in so that your body is straight without sagging. 4. Try to hold this for 30 seconds if you can. You may feel your muscles shake a little while doing this, which means they are working! 5. It is important to start off with small increments and build over the course of a week as you become stronger. 6. To advance the plank and make it more difficult, lift your knees off the ground, keeping your body straight. 7. Ideally, you should be able to hold this position for 2 minutes 8. You may have some soreness the next day as you are using muscles that have not been worked that way in a while. HEALTHY RECIPE Zucchini Linguine

TIPS FOR IMPROVED GOLFING THIS SUMMER
Patient Success Spotlight
“I have found that since I started physical therapy, a few large muscle groups were found to be turned “off” causing other muscles to compensate and become overused very easily. Today, these muscle groups have since been turned “on” allowing all muscle groups to work together. I can now perform daily activities without getting hurt, or feeling hurt at the end of the day.” - Mark I can now perform daily activities without getting hurt!
Golfing for the first time after a couple months can be tough on the body. Most people will experience soreness in their lower back, shoulders and wrists after their first time out. Before getting back into the swing of things, here are some tips to follow: 1. Prepare. Before hitting the green, you may want to go to the driving range a couple of times first. This will help prepare your muscles when you play a round of golf. 2. Stretch. Stretching can improve your range of motion, making it easier to swing the club. 3. Easy does it. The actual motion of golfing isn’t the only thing that strains your body during a round. Soreness can also come from walking around the course and carrying your clubs. Start the year off using a push cart or only playing 9 holes while you build up the endurance needed to play an entire round. If you regularly ride in a cart, this is likely a little less of a concern. 4. Don’t let your skills get rusty. Ifyou’reanavidgolferduring thesummer, try heading out to an indoor driving range during the off season. Regular exercise, such as jogging or biking, can also keep your muscles strong and ready for the season.
