February is American Heart Month

In the pursuit of heart health, regular exercise is a powerful ally, strengthening the heart, improving circulation, and aiding in weight management. Recent research shows that 30 minutes of daily stretching can be more effective in reducing high blood pressure than a 30-minute walk.

At PhysicalOne, we believe daily stretching is as essential as a shower, fostering flexibility and overall mobility for heart health. Various activities, like brisk walks or stair climbing, offer unique benefits. Consistency is key – start with manageable routines and gradually increase intensity for sustained benefits.



Combined with a balanced diet, adequate sleep, and stress management, regular physical activity forms a cornerstone of heart health, empowering individuals for a better quality of life and longevity. Incorporate daily movement, including stretching, to nurture both the heart and soul, enriching life's journey.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS ARE SAYING

"Dr. Colette opened my mind... She educated me on the science of injury (and overcoming it) using clear and understandable metaphors. The next thing she did was emphasize the value of stretching. I'd undervalued stretching my entire life, but thanks to consistent PT with this team - stretching with intention is now my daily go-to for feeling great. It's such a simple concept, but applied properly it's life-changing.

The Physical One staff took great care of me - physically and mentally - and I recommend their services to anyone who's reached a point of near hopelessness with their injury... They'll help you find the inner light that'll guide you to your own recovery."
