Some people think that stretching is an unnecessary part of exercising. The truth is that stretching is a necessary component of exercise.
Physical Therapists are the musculoskeletal experts and can help teach you how to stretch individual muscles and muscle groups to keep your joints healthy!
The 5 Benefits of Stretching
1. Stretching prior to exercising helps the muscles to achieve maximum range of motion. It also helps strengthen the muscles. That is why during physical therapy stretching is a main focus.
2. Stretching helps reduce muscle tension. It’s a therapeutic treatment by a physical therapist. You’ll feel the rewards of stretching during your daily routine, walking or lifting.
3. Stretching enhances joint range of motion. It enables the body part to move easier. For more dynamic movement, stretching increases muscular coordination. Some physical therapy sessions focus on a muscle group instead of just one muscle for stretching.
4. Another benefit of stretching is increased blood circulation. Muscles require sufficient oxygen and nutrients in order to perform well. Stretching ramps up blood flow and transports oxygen and nutrients.
5. Lastly, a benefit of stretching is heightened energy levels. The increased circulation increases energy levels. Learning to stretch properly will lead you to a more active lifestyle. “According to results of a new systematic review, moderate-grade evidence seems to support strengthening and stretching exercises to help ease chronic neck pain.”

Why do we use hurdles in the clinic?
Hurdles are great for gait training with patients of all ages and abilities!
We often use hurdles for plyometric training with our athletes. It helps to increase speed and agility in a safe environment
They are used to help with general obstacle avoidance for patients who need to be able to ambulate out in the community safely. Sometimes stepping up on to curbs or stepping over cracks in the sidewalk can be tricky so it's good to practice with supervision.
Hurdles are also great for general strength and balance training. This patient is recovering from arthroscopic knee surgery and we gave her the extra challenge of stepping over the hurdles backwards!
Clearly she is nailing it!

Sometimes you have to get creative with your ther ex!!
Here is one of our youth soccer players getting a hamstring workout in the clinic.
Eesha came in with some notable muscle imbalances in her hips creating some patellofemoral (knee) pain.
We made sure her exercises were effective, challenging, and fun! She is 14 after all!
Keep an eye on our feed for creative therapeutic exercise videos for treating young athletes!
