Spring has sprung and the sun is out! Like bears coming out of hibernation, this is the time of year where we see people taking advantage of the nicer weather to spend more time outdoors and becoming more active. Whether you're a weekend warrior in the backyard or are excited to play hard in the Boise Foothills, this sudden burst of increased activity can place you at risk for certain common injuries.
For those with plans to tackle the landscaping around the house, I often see back and shoulder injuries from lifting heavy wheelbarrows, shoveling, or simply yanking on the mower pull start string 20 times trying to bring it back to life. Out hiking, biking, or running the trails? That's where I start seeing more traumatic injuries such as ankle and wrist sprains, or over use injuries such as IT Band syndrome, runner's knee, or hip pain.
With DuPont Wellness, PLLC, Dr. Corey DuPont, PT, DPT can save you time and effort, by bringing the physical therapy in Boise and the greater Treasure Valley area to you in the comfort of your own home, at work, in your back yard, or even on the trail.
