Holiday Hips Need Attention 🎄🏃‍♀️

Between travel days, long drives, and extra time sitting, it’s easy for hip mobility to take a hit during the holidays.

For runners, stiff hips can change your stride, limit efficiency, and make runs feel harder than they should. For anyone sitting or traveling more, tight hips can show up as low back discomfort, knee pain, or that “stuck” feeling when you move.

Hip mobility isn’t just about stretching — it’s about moving well and staying active without pain.

If tight hips are slowing you down this season, schedule your appointment here 👉

Climbers — Your Warm-Up Matters 🧗‍♀️

If you’re jumping straight on the wall without prepping your shoulders, hips, and spine… your body feels it. A good climbing warm-up improves your movement, grip, and body control — and helps prevent those nagging aches that show up mid-session.

A few minutes of intentional mobility can completely change how you climb. Your body will thank you. 💪🧗‍♀️

“I’ve been seeing Mary at Empower U regularly for 6 months now. I started going to address hip and arch pain resulting from my marathon training. At the time, my hips felt locked up and I was struggling to run naturally, and I was having serious plantar fasciitis. Mary and the Empower U team are specialists in runners’ health and treatment, and after a few weeks of initial treatment (dry needling, hands-on work, and targeted exercises to address my specific injuries), my symptoms started to improve. Mary then helped create a plan for me to strengthen other weak areas in my body to prevent future injuries. I not only feel stronger and healthier as a result of my treatment, but I am also seeing improvements in my overall fitness and running times. I can’t say enough about the awesome treatment I get here, and I recommend them to all of my running friends who experience training injuries.” - Empower U Client

🏃‍♀️ Hip Strength = Better, Stronger, Pain-Free Running 🏃‍♂️

If you want to improve your running efficiency, it all starts with stronger hips.

Mary breaks down a simple but powerful hip-strengthening exercise specifically for runners. This will help you:
• Stay stable with every stride
• Improve power and control
• Reduce compensations that lead to injury

A stronger foundation = smoother, more confident miles.

Want to build better running mechanics or tackle recurring aches? Mary can help you run stronger and stay injury-free.

🔥 Myth vs. Fact: Running Technique

Think your running form is “just the way it is”? Let’s clear up one of the biggest misconceptions in the running world.

💭 Here’s the breakdown:
❌ Myth → Running form doesn’t matter as long as you’re putting in the miles.
✅ Fact → Efficient technique (like proper hip extension, midfoot strike, and trunk control) can reduce injury risk and improve speed and endurance.

Small changes in mechanics can make a massive difference in how you move and feel. And the best part? You don’t have to figure it out alone.

Mary’s performance-based approach helps runners improve mechanics, build strength, and stay injury-free — whether you’re training for a race or just want to feel better on your runs. 🏃‍♀️🔥

Pain Isn’t Normal — And You Don’t Have to Live With It

Daily aches, stiffness, or lingering discomfort might feel “common,” but they’re not something you just have to accept. Your body is designed to move well — and when it doesn’t, it’s trying to tell you something.

At Empower U, our approach is all about understanding why you’re feeling pain in the first place. Instead of masking symptoms, we look at your movement, strength, mobility, and mechanics to uncover what’s actually going on.

When you address the root cause, everything changes:
• Movement feels easier
• Strength comes back
• Pain starts to fade
• Confidence returns

Whether you’re active, aging, climbing, running, lifting, or simply trying to get through the day without discomfort — you deserve to feel your best.

Calf Tightness Slowing You Down? 🏃‍♀️

If your calves feel tight every time you run, it’s usually a sign that the tissue needs more than stretching. Tight calves often come from overworking, poor push-off mechanics, or limited ankle mobility.

One of the best ways to start unlocking that tension? Targeted lacrosse ball work.

Better calf mobility = smoother push-off, reduced fatigue, and fewer compensation patterns up the chain.

If calf tightness keeps coming back, it’s time to figure out why — and get the right plan in place.

🔥 Shoulder pain holding you back on the wall?

Climbers put a ton of load through their shoulders — especially during lock-offs, gastons, and overhead reaches. When the smaller stabilizing muscles can’t keep up, your shoulders start to take the hit.

The good news? You’re not stuck with that discomfort.

Targeted strength, mobility work, and proper shoulder mechanics can help you climb with more power, control, and confidence.

If shoulder pain keeps showing up during climbs, it’s your sign to get things checked out before it becomes a bigger issue.

🧗‍♀️ Hip Mobility = Better Climbing

If high steps, heel hooks, or drop knees feel stiff or harder than they should, your hips might be the reason.

Strong, mobile hips give you more control on the wall — and help you move efficiently without overworking your knees or low back.

Try the hip mobility exercise Mary shares to start unlocking better movement and more confident climbing. A little hip work goes a long way when it comes to performance.
