The Summer of Balance

With temps in the high nineties this week, Texas summer is officially upon us. Regardless of how you feel about the Texas heat, there’s probably something about summer you like! Family vacations, seeing your kids or grandkids more, barbeques, pool time, lake days, and a plethora of other summertime activities!  All of these things are great but maybe you feel more limited than you want to.  We have covered all sorts of balance this past month.  From new ways to challenge yourself (balance board, anyone?) and unusual ways balance affects us, all the way to last week’s post about nutritional...

Do You Have a Fragile Core?

As an avid cyclist I love watching the pro’s race. To the uninformed it looks like a bunch of guys riding around on their bikes without much organization but to those who watch the sport regularly know there is a method to the madness.   Cycling actually has teams (similar to football), and each team member has a job to do. Some are supporting cast members (like linemen) and others are the stars (quarterback or star running back).  The cycling supporting cast members (called domestiques) are responsible for protecting the main rider by helping him stay out of trouble and making...

Your Home May Not Be As...

Flipping through the channels the other day I stopped on an episode of hoarders. Of course the lady had too much stuff in her home making it difficult to walk much less function on a daily basis.  It reminded me of a house I visited years ago when I was doing home health care. I got a call to see a lady who was falling frequently due to weakness and deconditioning.  When I entered the house all I could see was stacks and stacks of paper.  The living room, halls, bedrooms and dining room all had stacks on stacks of...

How I Learned To Breathe All...

In a prior post, I discussed how I am seeing more and more patients come in with post-Covid symptoms of general de-conditioning, difficulty breathing, fatigue, brain fog and overall poor energy levels.  In addition to the tips and FREE REPORT I provided to help build your immune system I want to give you another way to help you recover.  I have also broken down some of the breathing  basics here as well as how HRV can affect your health. Most of the people I talk with have their backs against the wall. They know they don’t feel good, think they...

What The Heck Is A PT...

I get asked questions all of the time including what exactly is a Physical Therapist and what does a PT do?  In today's blog  I will cover some of the most common questions we get and hopefully help you make better decisions about your healthcare.   One of the most common and pressing questions we receive is: Is physical therapy for me?  While that is a very general question the answer needs to be more specific.  Any type of healthcare decision needs to be made with your specific condition in mind, this is why the experts at MOSS REhabilitation Center always...

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)...

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...
