Hope everyone is getting out and enjoying the warmer weather! This time of year, we love to get out out flip flops and sandals. The downside can be that many of us wear shoes that offer little support and stability in the warmer months. This can result in calf, ankle and foot issues. Choose good shoes with support, stability, shock absorption when you are walking, running, even just doing yard work. ... Here are a few stretches you can do to for the calf and foot.

Hello everyone! Hope you are all safe & well! Are you getting into the rhythm of a new routine? It may take a bit,and we will all get there!... Today, I am doing a couple of stretches for the glutes, piriformis, as well as a release. You can use a tennis or lacrosse ball, or a foam roller. I have also included a release for the rhomboids, the muscle along the inner shoulder blades. For those of you with tight neck, shoulders and arms, here is another micromove from Jacquie Ogg and Sherry Ogg-Kabatoff's 2002 Work'ercise. Remember to stretch when your muscles are warm and stetch to the point of a "stretch", not pain. If the area is inflamed and acute, hold off on stretching or using a ball/ roller. These stretches/releases should not cause or increase pain. Stop if you feel anything that does not seem "right." Stay healthy! Was your hands!

Laughter is the best medicine! Laughter relaxes the whole body. Laughter boosts the immune system. Laughter triggers the release of endorphins, the body's natural feel-good chemicals.... Plus so much more! So here is a chuckle, or two for you! Laugh and smile!
