Being a family caregiver is rewarding, but it often comes with physical and emotional challenges. Caregivers may feel isolated as they step back from social activities to care for loved ones. Friends and family might not understand the demands or may withdraw out of uncertainty. Still, support doesn’t have to be complicated. Small, thoughtful gestures can make a meaningful difference.

• Offer to run errands or pick up groceries
• Bring over a meal or set up a meal train
• Help with chores like laundry, dishes, or yard work
• Stay with their loved one so they can take a break
• Assist with organizing medical or legal documents
• Share helpful tech tools for caregiving
• Check in regularly and listen without judgment
• Encourage caregivers to care for their own health

Flu season usually starts in October and peaks between December and February. It’s spread mainly through respiratory droplets when we talk, cough, or sneeze.

Recovering from a mastectomy or breast reconstruction takes time, physically and emotionally. Pain, stiffness, or fatigue can limit how well you move your arm and shoulder, making daily activities like dressing, bathing, or combing your hair more difficult. Physical and occupational therapists can provide personalized guidance and treatments to help with discomfort and immobility. In addition, the American Cancer Society suggests the following small steps and practical tips to support healing and help you regain comfort and confidence in everyday movement:

• Try gentle movements like wall walks, pendulum swings, and shoulder rolls to ease stiffness.
• Don’t ignore scar tightness, as gentle massage or physical therapy can help improve both comfort and mobility.
• Protect your arm from bumps or pokes.
• Use compression sleeves to reduce swelling and fatigue.

Always be sure to check with your healthcare provider to see what is recommended for your recovery.

Physical therapy can help prevent injuries by identifying muscle imbalances, tightness, and limited range of motion. These issues can increase stress on joints and lead to pain or injury. Through targeted exercises and stretches, physical therapy strengthens weak areas and improves flexibility, helping you move more freely and comfortably. Whether your goal is to stay independent, reduce pain, or improve mobility, proactive physical therapy can support your overall strength and daily function.

A hip fracture often can lead to significant loss of mobility in older adults. Physical therapy plays a central role in recovery by restoring strength, improving balance, and helping a patient to walk again. A physical therapist creates a personalized plan focused on rebuilding strength, movement, and independence, while reducing pain, lowering the risk of future falls, and helping patients return to daily activities with greater confidence.

Did you know that your brain has the ability to form and reorganize connections between neurons in response to learning, experience, or injury? It’s called neuroplasticity. This is how we grow, heal, and change. Unlike rigid electrical circuits, neurons in the brain are flexible and capable of rewiring, which can play a crucial role in recovery after a spinal cord injury. Even when the spinal cord is damaged, the brain and nervous system can create new pathways to help restore lost functions and adapt to new ways of moving and living.
