Movement is Life

I would like to share a link (by Dr. Andreo A. Spina), which effectively expresses what every patient or individual should be doing. As a podiatric physician, my goal is to reduce the pain of patients, so they can continue with their daily living. But as a practitioner, it should not end there. There still is some damage involved that needs to be correctly for total healing. It requires continuous application of stress to the damaged part to allow it heal correctly. This is why I give exercises for patients to do by themselves beyond our office visits. Not only do they “fix” the patient, but they also allow them to achieve better mobility and strength to avoid future problems.
