Renue Physical Therapy - Shields

12/16/2025

The holidays are a wonderful time of year, but they can also be physically and mentally demanding. At Renue, our commitment to your well-being doesn’t stop outside the clinic, especially during busy seasons like this.

That’s why we put together a Holiday Wellness Checklist to help you listen to your body and respond with the kind of care it needs, whether that’s rest, gentle movement, or a simple reset.

This checklist offers easy, realistic suggestions you can use at home, while traveling, or in the middle of a full holiday schedule. Because wellness doesn’t have to mean doing more - it means doing what’s right for you.

Thank you for trusting us with your care. We’re so grateful to be part of your journey.

Wishing you a healthy and peaceful holiday season,
The Renue PT Team

Congratulations to Peggy on graduating from therapy, and welcome to the ! 🎓💙🎓

Peggy came to us after a rotator cuff repair, and experienced some frozen shoulder symptoms afterward. She was discouraged at the start of her therapy, but worked hard to make great progress and is happy to be experiencing less pain and improved functional mobility.

Great work Peggy! We wish you great health, but are always here if you need us ☺️

Congratulations to Cheryl on graduating from therapy, and welcome to the ! 🎓💙🎓

Cheryl came to Renue Shields to avoid surgery on a rotator cuff tear. She was expecting PT to hurt, but her pain actually improved as she performed her exercises. Her shoulder won't be at 100% without it, but she is pleased with her progress and is no longer seeking surgery! Just in time to do all of her holiday baking and cooking, and to help care for her two infant great-grandchildren.

Great work Cheryl! We wish you great health, but are always here if you need us ☺️

Thanksgiving is a time for connection, gratitude, and let’s be honest - a lot on your plate (in more ways than one)! 🦃🍽️🥧🍗

Whether your day is full of family, travel, or a little extra quiet, we hope you take a moment to care for you.

To make that a little easier, we’ve put together a free Thanksgiving Mini Wellness Gift - a quick, simple set of feel-good movements and reminders designed to help your body stay relaxed and your mind stay steady throughout the holiday.

A few breaths. A gentle stretch. A moment of grounding.
Small things that make a big difference.

We’re grateful for the trust you place in us and wish you a warm, joyful, and restorative Thanksgiving. 💛

Congratulations to Teresa on graduating from therapy, and welcome to the ! 🎓💙🎓

Teresa and her husband, Jon, were in a dune buggy accident over the summer, and both were experiencing the after effects of whiplash.

Jon stopped in a couple weeks ago looking for a PT clinic who could get them in as soon as possible, as they were leaving for Florida for the winter in just a couple of weeks!

The Renue team was able to get both of them scheduled for evaluation that same day and both of them completed three additional visits. Both are happy to be experiencing much less pain, just in time to travel to Florida 😎🌴☀️

Great work Teresa and Jon, and enjoy the sunshine!
