Emerge Physical Therapy & Wellness

Everyone join us in welcoming our new Pelvic Floor Therapist Madeline! 🎉 Madeline discovered her passion for treating patients with pelvic floor dysfunction on her first clinical rotation, where she saw how much of an impact therapy could make on pregnant and postpartum patients. Madeline believes all people deserve a safe and welcoming environment in which to spend their appointments. She is passionate about assisting patients in regaining bladder, bowel, and sexual function. We are so excited for her future here with Emerge! 💪🏽💚

Feeling overwhelmed? Exercise might be your answer. 🏃‍♂️🏋️‍♀️ Here’s how breaking a sweat can help you manage stress ⬇️⬇️⬇️

1. Natural Mood Boost

When you exercise, your body releases endorphins—nature’s very own mood lifters. These powerful chemicals can significantly reduce stress levels, leaving you feeling more relaxed and happier.

2. Better Sleep 🌙

Struggling to fall asleep or stay asleep? Regular physical activity improves sleep quality, helping you get the rest you need to handle stress effectively.

3. Sharper Mind & Higher Self-Esteem 🧠✨

Exercise enhances cognitive function and boosts self-esteem, making it easier to cope with stress and tackle challenges head-on.

4. Healthy Distraction

Sometimes, all you need is a break from your stressors. Exercise provides a healthy distraction, shifting your focus to the activity and its challenges.

5. Long-Term Benefits 🕒

By promoting a healthier lifestyle overall, exercise can reduce the long-term effects of stress, keeping you both mentally and physically fit.

Join us in welcoming Carol, our new administrative assistant. Already starting off with a bang by taking Emerge’s Olympian challenge with a walk through the forest preserve! 🌳🪵🏃‍♀️

🏆 CHALLENGE ALERT 🥇 In the spirit of the Summer Olympics Emerge will be having another challenge! There’s some stiff competition among the Emerge family and we can’t wait to see everyone compete!

A plank can be an extremely beneficial exercise ONLY if done properly. Use a mirror to make sure your spine is in a neutral and aligned position. Rely primarily on your core to support you.

We were truly amazed by the enthusiasm and the tenacity of the competitors of our fitness challenge. The top 3 competitors not only matched the 400min each week they blew it out of the water! Congrats to the winner .fallon 🔥💪🏻🎉🎊
