Muscle and joint pain, especially persistent pain, is common in seniors. It can be caused by osteoarthritis or other chronic conditions, but also can be caused by injury or overuse, or may have no known cause. If you’re experiencing aches and pains as you age, your RMT can help you find relief and get you back to activities you enjoyed when you were younger.

This week, share how your RMT got you back to the activities you enjoyed when you were younger.

I’m very excited to be part of this special event 🧡

What are some of your favourite ways to keep physically active?
I love gardening and hiking on nature trails 🌸🌿

“For millions of years, humans were physically active for only two reasons: when it was necessary or rewarding. Necessary physical activities included getting food and doing other things to survive. Rewarding activities included playing, dancing or training to have fun or to develop skills. But no one in the stone age ever went for a five-mile jog to stave off decrepitude, or lifted weights whose sole purpose was to be lifted.”

Hope you all have an enjoyable summer! ☀️

I am very grateful to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19! This photo is a bit of the vaccine after care information sheet. I am glad that the vaccines approved in my country are highly effective at preventing hospitalization. It’s unfortunate they had to emphasize that you can’t get COVID-19 from the vaccine. The amount of misinformation out there is disheartening. I think science literacy and critical thinking skills are super important in fighting this pandemic.

I think this post is super relevant for a lot of us during this pandemic! If you’re struggling, please reach out for help! We’re stronger together. Take care everyone! Reposted from
