Not all stretches are created equal! Dynamic stretches are best before activity to warm up muscles and increase blood flow, while static stretches are ideal after exercise to improve flexibility and cool down. Knowing when to use each helps you move better, recover faster, and prevent injuries.

Spending long hours at a desk can take a toll on your back, neck, and wrists—but with the right ergonomic setup, you can work comfortably and protect your posture. Make sure your monitor is at eye level, your chair provides proper lumbar support, and you’re taking short movement breaks throughout the day to avoid stiffness and strain.

Even small adjustments can make a big difference in how you feel by the end of the workday.

🖥️ Noticing discomfort? Our expert therapists can help you identify posture issues and relieve pain.

🏃Gearing Up for a Turkey Trot or Fall Fun Run?

Make the most of your miles by prepping your body the smart way! Start with proper warm-ups and dynamic stretches to get your muscles ready and reduce the risk of injury.

✅ Try moves like:

* Leg swings
* Arm circles
* Walking lunges
* Hip openers

These help boost circulation and improve mobility before you hit the pavement.

After your run, don’t skip your cooldown! Gentle static stretches like hamstring and calf stretches can ease tightness and aid recovery.

With the right prep and pacing, you'll cross that finish line feeling strong, energized, and injury-free. Let’s go!

Hiking is a great way to explore nature, but it can also lead to common injuries if you're not careful. Some of the most frequent hiking injuries include:

🌄 Ankle Sprains – Uneven terrain can cause twists or rolls.
🌄 Knee Pain – Going downhill puts extra pressure on your knees.
🌄 Shin Splints – Overuse or sudden changes in terrain can strain your shins.
🌄 Strains and Sprains – Lifting or carrying heavy gear can lead to muscle injuries.

At Provident Physical Therapy & Rehabilitation, we can help you recover and prevent future injuries. With personalized rehab, we’ll guide you through strengthening exercises, mobility training, and pain relief techniques, so you can hike safely and with confidence!
