How to stay in Motion while Sitting

Jan 4, 2017 | Physical Therapy

Chair exercise is mainly geared for those who are at an increased risk of falling, have severe joint problems, or are wheelchair-bound. Exercise is important for people of all ages and fitness levels because it increases strength, flexibility and blood circulation while improving your mood! MPR Physical Therapy Assistant, Amy Ramos, demonstrates three full-body chair exercises that involve both the upper and lower body as well as core muscles.

Exercise 1:  Leg kick with twist – targets thighs and waist

Exercise 2:  Skater reach – targets core, waist, legs

Exercise 3: Seated running – targets core muscles, arms and legs

Slipped disc? Sciatica? Pinched nerve? Herniated disc? Spinal traction can help!

Oct 25, 2022

Spinal traction takes the pressure off of compressed areas of the spine by stretching it. This process is the key to easing pain and helping the body heal itself along the way.

Traction can be done manually or by using mechanical traction to improve spinal alignment, reduce pressure on joints, and relieve pain.

How can it be done in the office and at home? Once one of our practitioners determines that traction could be beneficial for your condition, he or she will typically place you on a specific treatment plan.  He or she may also prescribe some at-home traction devices that you could use to continue experiencing relief.
