Greetings

Welcome to the March newsletter from Physical & Sports Rehab. We invite you to read about our non-profit, PTS Rehab Works!

Introducing....

PTS Rehab Works, the non-profit arm of Physical & Sports Rehab, was founded by Paul Heath to address issues related to health education. Our primary mission is to empower our clients and community members to be proactive in their health: to recognize the deficiencies caused in our body and mind when we lack sufficient knowledge about proper self-care.

As part of PTS Rehab Works' commitment to taking an active role in promoting health, Angela Heath, who spearheads the non-profit's efforts, has launched the 2016 Love Your Body! Workshop Series. The LYB! Series features monthly workshops hosted by local experts and are dedicated to addressing the role of proper nutrition, physical fitness and mental health in our overall wellness. We hope you will join us at one of our workshops this year!

Dealing With Neck Pain

Have you been experiencing frequent neck pain or stiffness?

Many adults are currently struggling with this issue. Recurring pain that is not properly addressed can dramatically decrease your quality of life so it should not be ignored.

There are a number of different reasons why neck pain occurs, but the mostly common causes are sports and other accidental injuries such as car accidents or the gradual effect of poor daily postures we adopt in our work and home lives.

Move Well

Understanding Tendonitis

Tendonitis refers to acute inflammation of a tendon or the tendon sheath.

Tendinosis refers to excessive wear and tear to a tendon without inflammation present.

Recurring tendon problems are quite common, especially in individuals who play high impact sports.

In particular, running injuries account for about 30 percent of all tendon issues, while another 40 percent is caused by repetitive tennis-type (racquet or club) injuries.
