DON’T SKIPyour physical therapy appointments!

Sometimes when we get busy,

it’s easiest just to cancel other

appointments, including

physical therapy. At OSR, our

therapists want to continue

working with you throughout

the holiday season to not only

help you stay healthy, but to

help you not lose any progress

you’ve already made.

We Accept Most Major Health Insurance Plans

Planning, shopping, decorating, cooking – the holidays are busy! It is even more

important to take good care of yourself when you’re busy and stressed so that you do

not become susceptible to injury and illness.

At OSR Physical Therapy, we can help you get the most out of your holidays and face the New Year feeling your best!

HOLIDAYtipsfrom

Lifting heavy boxes filled with

decorations, over-reaching to hang

Christmas lights, and standing on

tiptoes to put the star on the tree

can all cause injuries. Be sure to lift

with your legs when picking up

heavy boxes, move the ladder closer

to the house so you don’t have to

reach as far, and get a sturdy

stepstool when putting decorations

up high.

STAY SAFEwhile decorating

DON’T NEGLECTyour workout

Maintaining your workout schedule

through the holidays has several

benefits. An obvious benefit is that

you will continue to burn calories on

a regular basis even as you consume

a few more in holiday treats, but

another is that you will enjoy the

stress-relieving benefits that come

along with regular exercise. Lastly,

many people go from not working

out at all to overdoing it because of a

New Year’s Resolution, and you’ll

already be well ahead of the game.

Most importantly, be sure to take time to relax and really enjoy your holiday activities. Talk to your OSR Physical Therapist for more tips on how to stay as healthy as possible this holiday season!

SHOP SMARTIf you’re heading out to shop, don’t wear high heels or unsupportive shoes, but choose shoes that are supportive and comfortable. Instead of carrying heavy bags from store to store, plan trips out to the car to drop bags o� to avoid back and shoulder pain. While shopping online, make sure you get up, stretch, and walk around a bit at least twice an hour. Watch your posture, and make sure your feet are �at on the �oor, your monitor is at eye level, and your chair is supportive.
