As patients return to spring activities like gardening, cycling, and tennis, RMTs play an important role in helping them stay active, reduce injury risk, and manage musculoskeletal pain.
Jumping back into an active hobby after a long break can increase the risk of pain or injury.
Whether patients are spending the day in the garden, heading out for a family bike ride, or getting back on the tennis court, preparation and recovery strategies can help them enjoy these activities more comfortably and reduce the risk of injury.

Happy Earth Day! ππ³π»
Poem
Thank You Mother Earth
by Tammy MacDonald-Doran
"Thank You Mother Earth
You are a treasure to behold
Thank you Mother Earth
For all the gifts that you bestow..."emeraldforestbathing.ca
On Earth Day we are reminded that the natural world is both beautiful and fragile. For decades, the art of Robert Bateman has celebrated wildlife and the landscapes they depend on, encouraging us to look more closely at the living world around us.
Protecting nature begins with noticing it. Every forest, wetland, and field holds stories worth preserving for generations to come.
What is one place in nature that inspires you?
