MOTION IS LOTION.
If you're one of our current clients, chances are you have heard this (it's our favourite phrase). We cannot emphasize enough how movement is not only good for your physical health but also your mental well-being.
Regular physical activity can help prevent chronic diseases like heart disease, diabetes, and obesity. Movement is also essential for maintaining good posture, balance, and coordination. It helps improve your range of motion, strength, and endurance.
From a physiotherapy perspective, movement is essential in rehabilitation. After an injury or surgery, movement helps to reduce pain, increase circulation, and promote healing. It can also prevent muscle atrophy and joint stiffness, which can occur when the body is immobilized for a long time.
So whether it's a daily walk, a yoga session, or a dance class, make sure you move your body regularly. Your body will thank you for it!
