27 Mar Celebrating Women’s History Month
Honoring Women’s Strength
Past, Present, and Future
March is Women’s History Month—a time to recognize the remarkable contributions of women throughout history and celebrate the strength of women today. As a physical therapist, I see firsthand the resilience of women in overcoming challenges, whether recovering from injury, navigating pregnancy and postpartum changes, or staying active through the years.
This month, I encourage you to prioritize your health and movement. Here are three PT-approved tips for lifelong strength and wellness:
1. Protect Your Core:
A strong core supports posture, balance, and daily function. Try exercises like dead bugs, planks, and bridges to build stability.
2. Prioritize Mobility:
Mobility work keeps your body agile by promoting movement through a full range of motion. Incorporating active exercises that engage the trunk, limbs, and crossbody diagonals helps improve joint flexibility and prevent stiffness.
3. Listen to Your Body:
Pain is not a badge of honor. If something doesn’t feel right, seek professional guidance to prevent long-term issues.
This Women’s History Month, let’s honor the women who paved the way by investing in our own strength and well-being.
Stay strong, stay active, and keep making history!
