RUNNING IN SPRINGTIME

Apr 13, 2023
Spring has sprung!  Well, at the least the snow has melted, which is a pretty significant sign of things to come for Vermont. As the days become longer and sidewalks become clearer, many people become…

MAINTAINING BALANCE IN 2020

I’m usually not one to make New Year’s resolutions.  As a pretty self-disciplined person, I tend to make smaller goals, do things in moderation, and have never felt the need to “start fresh” in the New Year.  I’ve come to realize, however, that such a life of moderation hasn’t necessarily forced me to…

CREATING NEW SUSTAINABLE LIFESTYLE HABITS

According to fitness and location apps, January is without a doubt the busiest time of the year for gym memberships, as it is inevitably “that time of the year again”.  The New Year is popular for resolutions pertaining to fitness or making the “best version of ourselves”.  If exercise and fitness are…

THE 12 STRESS MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES FOR THIS HOLIDAY SEASON

Although the holiday season is a time to be joyous and celebrate with those around us, often we  find ourselves overwhelmed by our busy schedules and long to-do lists.  Whether it’s running around doing some last minute gift shopping or planning for the in-laws, we all have those moments of letting stress…

HEALTH & STRESS MANAGEMENT - WINTER WALKING!

I recently gave myself a new title: walking ambassador.  It’s something I made up the other day while at the gym with a friend.  We were preaching to folks to get out and walk every day on Thanksgiving break.  Most people kind of sighed and rolled their eyes.  But we were being serious!  And I was surprised…

PRACTICING GRATITUDE THROUGH YOGA

Let’s get creative with our gratitude practice, as we know giving thanks regularly leads to a stronger immune system, more energy, and a deeper feeling of connection to others. Yoga and gratitude seem to go hand in hand, as yoga brings us into moments of stillness and it becomes an easy way to express…

GRATITUDE IS FOR MORE THAN THANKSGIVING

Gratitude is for more than just Thanksgiving season.  Many of us readily express our thanks and gratitude in November because of Thanksgiving (my favorite holiday, by the way) but we are less likely to do it throughout the rest of the year.  Maybe it is because we are too busy or too stressed or too…

I WOULD DO IT ALL AGAIN - A PATIENT'S JOURNEY IN PHYSICAL THERAPY

I had been uncomfortable for about three years before I decided to have my hip replaced.  At first I only experienced a stiffness after a long bike ride or run but later, it became an ache and then a sharp pain when simply walking up a flight of stairs. At that point, I couldn’t sleep through the night…

A (KINDA) BRIEF HISTORY OF PHYSICAL THERAPY

Did you know that October is more than just the month when you can enjoy pumpkin-spiced-anything-and-everything, binge on apple cider donuts, and layer on the flannel & oversized scarves?  While I certainly enjoy partaking in all the above, October is extra special to me because it’s also National Physical…

GET DRENCHED! - AN INTERVIEW WITH NINA DINAN, DPT

In honor of September as "back to school" month, we've been highlighting our different classes here at PT360.  What better was to learn about our classes than through getting to know the instructors themselves?  Today we're interviewing one of our fantastic aquatic class instructors, Nina Dinan, DPT!   Katie:…

GROUP EXERCISE IS FUN…..REALLY FUN!

Growing up dancing, I was always in a class setting for movement.  I was comfortable exercising with other people and that led to teaching and participating in many forms of exercise to include yoga, aerobics, dance, and strengthening classes.  I also cherish time outdoors hiking, running, and walking,…
