Rory plays quarterback and has had his share of injuries throughout his high school career. 🏈

When he badly sprained his ankle during the pre-season, we quickly jumped on it, treating it fairly aggressively with Softwave to ensure he could start his season strong.

He was able to play his first game of the season without complaints of any ankle pain!

Unfortunately, Rory also fractured his clavicle during the first game.

But, in true Rory-form, he came back halfway through the season and led the Bulldogs to a strong finish.

Thanks for being a great role model and example of determination!

Annie is a senior player who came to see me halfway through her season because she sprained her ankle.

She was determined to get back on the court and didn’t let her sprained ankle keep her from leading Copley to finish their season strong.

To get her ankle back in playing condition, we did a combination of manual lymph drainage to control the swelling, range of motion exercises, Softwave, strengthening, and balance exercises.

Annie will continue her volleyball career as a setter for Ursuline.

🏆 Our Boys' Cross Country team are State Champions! Congrats to all the athletes and coaches on this incredible achievement! This is the Bulldogs’ 11th state championship in Boys Cross Country!

Good luck to Atticus and the Woodridge Cross Country team as they head to States this weekend!

Atticus is treated on a maintenance program during his season to keep him healthy, stretched out, and strong.

He continues to amaze me with how fast he can run and consistently leads the pack for the boys’ team.

Go Bulldogs!

The above is an example of a dynamic stretch—one of my favorite warm-up tools for getting the body ready to move.

To refresh your memory:

Dynamic stretching = controlled movement through a full range of motion (like walking lunges). It increases blood flow, activates muscles, and prepares your body for action.
 Static stretching = holding a position (for example, a quad or hamstring stretch) before or after activity. These stretches improve flexibility and help muscles return to their resting length.

➡️ Use dynamic stretches before your workout or sport to get moving and minimize injury risk. Use static stretches afterwards (or on rest days) to help with flexibility and recovery.

If you’d like personalized guidance on which stretches are best for your specific goals or injuries, I’d love to help—give me a call at 330-212-7800 to set up a session.

One of the best ways to keep yourself in good physical condition is also one of my favorites—stretching! If you’ve been with me long enough, you’ll know this is one of the treatment modalities I recommend the most.

But did you know there are different types of stretching?

Dynamic stretching is done before a workout or activity—think, a runner jogging in place before starting a run. These movements get your muscles warmed up before you begin the activity.

Static stretching can be done before or after a workout—think of grabbing your foot and pulling it up behind you after a run. This type of stretching can bring muscles back to their pre-exercise length.

➡️ If you need guidance on what stretches are best for an injury or preventative care, call me at 330-212-7800. I’d love to develop a treatment plan just for you!

At Moving Forward, we’re always exploring new ways to help you move, heal, and feel your best—and one of our favorite tools for that is red light therapy.

It’s a gentle, non-invasive treatment that uses specific wavelengths of light to reduce inflammation, ease pain, and boost energy. Clients often tell me they feel more relaxed, less stiff, and more energized after their sessions.

Some of the top benefits?
 ➡️ Less pain and stiffness ➡️ Faster recovery ➡️ Better sleep and mood ➡️ Healthier skin and circulation

It’s an easy, natural way to support your body’s healing process—and it just feels good.

Curious if red light therapy could help you? Call 330-212-7800 or click the link in our bio to book a session!

🍂 Fall sports are here—which means more practices, games, and sometimes…injuries.

Common issues we see this season: ankle sprains, Achilles tendinitis, shin splints, Sever’s disease, and turf toe.

✅ With the right care and prevention—stretching, supportive footwear, proper rest, and therapies like SoftWave—athletes can recover well and stay strong all season long.

Here’s to healthy, injury-free play! ⚽🏈🏐
