Keep your senior patients
active
Active minds and bodies slows the effects of ageing. When mobility is
lost, the effects of ageing seem to dramatically accelerate. Maintaining mobility is
predicated on consistent exercise.
Aside
from injuries, loosing mobility often starts by an increase in aches and pains.
Discomfort puts the walk off to another day "When I feel better".
Remaining active in the face of discomfort requires a bit of an attitude, and
you, as a provider of Posture Control Insoles®, can help.
At some point, seniors feel the full effects of life-long postural distortions
and muscular compensation patterns that are finally catching up, but fortunately
improving posture still offers significant benefits.
With few exceptions
seniors respond well to improved foot mechanics. A small
postural change may significantly reduce discomfort and
encourage them to become actively involved in an exercise program
designed to help them maintain flexibility and remain active.
Why
should our seniors have to give up their walks, golf and other activities when
there are simple and inexpensive tools available like Posture Control Insoles®.
You can provide an invaluable service to seniors and they will surely appreciate
you for it.
Dr. Rothbart did two studies with over 500 patients (all ages) who suffered from
chronic low back and knee pain. They had all been told by their doctors
that they just had to harden themselves to live with the pain. After a
year of wearing Posture Control Insoles®, over 70% of the study
participants reported significant, better than 70% reduction in
their pain.
That's a result you can count on.
