📢Just because it hurts, that doesn’t mean you’re injured — and it definitely doesn’t mean you’re broken.

😫Pain is influenced by more than muscles and joints. That’s why at Plus Forte, we take a whole-person, holistic approach to your care.

We look at:
✔️ Your career & daily demands
✔️ Hobbies and workouts you love
✔️ Movement habits & posture
✔️ Nutrition & fueling
✔️ Sleep & stress
✔️ Injury and medical history

Why? Because pain rarely has just one cause.

By understanding you as a whole, we can identify the root cause of your pain — not just chase symptoms — and create a truly all-encompassing program that brings strength, resilience, and confidence back into your body and mind. 💪🏻

‼️You don’t need to stop moving….You just need the right clinician and the right plan for your life.‼️

❄️ WINTER WELLNESS TIP: BOOST YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM WITH VITAMIN-C–RICH FOODS 🍊💪
Cold weather = more stress on your immune system, and one of the simplest ways to support it is through nutrient-dense winter produce.

One of my favorites? Citrus.
Fresh oranges, clementines, and grapefruit are packed with Vitamin C, antioxidants, and hydration—aka your winter trifecta. They help with collagen production (hello, healthy joints + skin!), aid iron absorption, and support overall immune health.

Here’s an easy, delicious recipe you can make all season long:

🍊 Citrus Yogurt Bowl

A quick, energizing immune-supporting breakfast or snack.

Ingredients:
• 1 cup whole-milk Greek yogurt
• 1 orange or clementine, peeled + sliced
• ½ grapefruit (optional), segmented
• 1–2 tbsp chopped pistachios or almonds
• Drizzle of honey
• Sprinkle of cinnamon
• Optional: chia seeds for extra fiber

💪🏻Fuel your body with nutrient-rich foods this winter—your energy, immune system, and mood will thank you. ✨

🎁 Avoid Holiday Gift-Wrapping Aches + Pains
❤️Wrapping should be festive, not painful!

As a Physical Therapist, here are my top tips to keep your back, neck, and shoulders happy while you wrap:

✨ 1. Don’t Sit on the Floor
Seems obvious, but we all do it! The floor forces you into rounding your spine, pressure on your knees and hunching forward. Instead, use a table or counter so the work surface is closer to you.

✨ 2. Keep Your Wrapping Station Close
Place scissors, tape, and paper within arm’s reach. Repetitive twisting and reaching are big culprits for neck and low back pain.

✨ 3. Support Your Spine
If you must sit, sit in a chair with back support. Place a small pillow or rolled towel behind your low back to maintain neutral alignment.

✨ 4. Take Movement Breaks
Every 10–15 minutes:
• Shoulder rolls
• Gentle chest and neck stretches
• Stand + reach overhead
These quick resets reduce muscle tension and fatigue.

✨ 5. Watch Your Wrists + Hands
Cutting and folding can cause overuse aches. Switch hands, keep your wrists neutral, and avoid gripping scissors too tightly. Do some wrist rolling and stretching every so often as well.

✨ 6. Use the “Gift Wrap Lunge”
Instead of bending at the waist, take a step forward and hinge from your hips with a neutral spine. Your back will thank you!

✨ Bonus: Standing Wrapping > Sitting Wrapping
Standing naturally keeps you more aligned and reduces sustained postures that lead to stiffness.

❤️Make wrapping a joy, not a pain. 🎄

💪🏻How do you know if you’re lifting heavy enough?
➡️We just put out a great blog post to help you figure this out! Check it out on our website! 👩🏻‍💻

Here’s the simple rule I teach all my clients ⬇️

If you finish a set and think, “I could’ve done 5–10 more reps,”
➡️ your weight is too light.

For real strength, tone, and metabolism changes, the last 2–3 reps should feel challenging but still controlled.
That sweet spot is where your muscles actually adapt and get stronger.

A good check-in after each set:
👉 “If I absolutely HAD to, could I do 2 more reps with good form?”
• Yes = perfect weight
• Yes, but you could do 5+ = go heavier next time
• No = weight is too heavy for that rep range

Most women lift lighter than they need to — not because they’re weak, but because they’ve been taught that lighter weights create good tone and that heavier weight creates bulk… WRONG!

You’re stronger than you think.
And training with intention changes everything. 💪✨

If you want help choosing the right weights or building a program, we’d love to guide you at Plus Forte!

✨ Daily Posture Fix: The Chin Tuck ✨
Also known as cervical retraction, this simple exercise can make a big difference in how your neck and upper back feel — especially if you spend a lot of time at a desk or on your phone.

👣 How to do it:
• Sit or stand tall with your shoulders relaxed.
• Gently draw your chin straight back (like you’re making a double chin).
• Hold for 3–5 seconds, then relax.
• Repeat 10 times, a few times per day.

💡 Why it helps:
The chin tuck strengthens your deep neck flexors and helps counteract forward head posture — the common culprit behind neck tension, headaches, and rounded shoulders. Over time, it teaches your body what neutral alignment feels like so good posture becomes effortless.

🌿 Who benefits most:
✅ Anyone who sits at a computer, drives often, or looks down at their phone
✅ People who feel tightness at the base of the skull, upper back, or between the shoulder blades
✅ Those who notice their head creeping forward in photos or mirrors

Try adding it in while you’re waiting at a red light, between emails, or during your morning routine. Little habits like this build strong, pain-free posture. 🙌

🚶‍♀️Crushing your steps each day for our October Walking Challenge?! Amazing work! But remember—recovery is just as important as movement. ✨

One of the easiest (and most relaxing) recovery tools you can use: an Epsom salt bath. 🛁

Here’s why it works:
✅ Magnesium in Epsom salts supports muscle relaxation.
✅ Warm water boosts circulation and eases stiffness.
✅ It helps calm stress and tension in both body and mind.
✅ If you end your day with a soak, your sleep will likely improve—and quality sleep is one of the most powerful recovery tools you have. 🌙

So after hitting your step goals, give your muscles and your mind a reset. You’ll wake up recharged and ready to keep moving! 💪✨

👉 Who’s adding an evening Epsom salt bath to their October Walking Challenge routine?
🙋🏻‍♀️I sure am!!
