Local Springtown Health Expert Discuss Ways...

I ran across this article the other day which discussed the addiction that most Americans have with their cell phones.  80% check their phones within the first 10 minutes of getting out of bed, 62% sleep with their phones and 70% use their phones while on the TOILET!!!! EEEEWWW  The funny thing is I can relate to several of the cell phone behaviors listed in the article..obviously not the toilet one, but I do use my phone as an alarm clock and tend to check the weather and my Oura ring sleep activity while I am brushing my teeth first...

14 Best foods to help with...

Springtown Arthritis Pain Sufferers…Do you wake up with stiff joints?  Do you moan and groan as you begin the day due to joint or muscle pain?  Have you been diagnosed with some form of arthritis (osteo - most common) rheumatoid) or have a family history?  If you answered yes to any of the above questions then you are not alone.  Many of my patients complain of these similar issues on a daily basis. Their doctor has told them they have arthritis (inflammation) and there is nothing they can do.  Most resort to doing nothing or taking harmful NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatories)...

“Attention: Yard Work….Hazardous To Your Shoulder...

Today we highlight a local Springtown shoulder pain client who thinks she injured her shoulder while working in the yard but wasn’t sure (we hear this all the time).  What she did know was that she had a tight shoulder with aching muscles and she wanted relief so she could play with her grandson and work in the yard again.  “A healthy man has thousands of wishes, a sick man has only one”. -Agnes Karll Schwest Krankenpfleger Denise’s story.  Lora, who goes by “DE-NICE” around here, wasn’t sure if she injured her shoulder by lifting her grandson or working in...

What is Stress and How Can...

At one of our free community education workshops I got this idea from talking to the participants. The original question is about therapy and exercises but quickly turned into the topic of stress and how to relieve it.   As we were wrapping up I was answering some of the group's questions and got an interesting one. (Actually I hear this frequently).  It was, why come in for therapy when I can just find some exercise on the internet?  I thought that was a great question. Here is part of what I told her regarding exercises.  First you can get a...

A Balanced Recovery

Today we highlight a client who had a desire to improve his balance and strength to prevent future falls and maintain his independence.  He understands the importance of being proactive in his health.   “A healthy man has thousands of wishes, a sick man has only one”. -Agnes Karll Schwest Krankenpfleger Charles’s story.  Charles started to get that sinking feeling that if he didn’t do something about his progressive weakness and balance issues he was going to end up on the floor with possibly a life threatening injury.  This is when Charles turned to MOSS Rehabilitation Center to help him remain...

Looking to get the most out of your therapy? Then look no further, as these 3 tips can help speed your recovery.  When most healthcare providers talk about recovery from an injury or surgery this vital component is often left out.  However, most athletes know (myself included) that missing this vital component is actually when the true recovery process takes place. What am I talking about?  SLEEP All of the grueling hours on the bike, weight room or practice field do wonders to tear the body down and damage the muscles, joints and connective tissue but sleep is when the...

Walking The Tightrope

It looks easier than it is! Have you ever gone down a rabbit hole on the internet? You start off looking at one video and the next thing you know an hour has gone by! This happened to me recently.  For some reason I looked up slackline videos on YouTube.   If you don’t know what a slackline is, it's basically a 2” wide webbing material stretched out between two poles or trees a few feet off the ground.  I thought it would be a good idea to get one.  I thought it would be fun and a great way to...

Be Strong Like Superman

In a prior blog post I discussed the benefits of being “flexible like gumby”. In this follow up article I want to tell you about several benefits of participating in a regular strength training program.  In high school I was a student of the martial arts. I began taking karate lessons in high school but was still a skinny kid. I wanted a way to develop some strength to really have a “punch” behind my punch, so I started lifting weights.  At first I didn’t enjoy it (because I was sore all of the time) and it didn’t seem to...
