Shelter In Place Stretches (SIPS)
WE HAVE NOT FORGOTTEN ABOUT YOU!!
Due to COVID-19 and the Shelter In Place mandate, many of us are spending hours and hours on our computers and phones. Increased time spent on your computer and phone and less time being active can increase risk for aches and pains. We are sure you are left wondering “what can be done to maintain my fitness and address my aches and pains?”
To add to your exercises or walking routine, here are a few go-to stretches from head to toe that you can do daily to help maintain your flexibility, avoid repetitive strains, address your posture and improve overall well being. Should you participate in SIPS, avoid pain, be safe, and have fun! If you have any questions or would like to schedule a time to meet with a therapist either in person or through telehealth, please contact the professionals at ProActive Physical Therapy and Sports Medicine at (760) 444-0102.

There is an unfortunate trend in healthcare today. This may be due to many factors, but I believe it is contributed by the growth of managed care and the increased load placed on the providers. This has resulted in a lack of proper communication between the provider and patient and thus, a reduction of interpersonal relationships with their patients.

All current and past patients,
We are sorry to burden you with another notice. We are pleased to say we have implemented TeleHealth/TeleMedicine into our daily business. Please understand this offering may not be for everyone as it may not fit well with your individual therapy requirements. Your ProActive therapist will help determine if TeleHealth will benefit you.
We implemented this program into our daily business to help anyone who has physical therapy or occupational therapy needs while continuing to follow the shelter-in-place requirements. For patients who want to pay cash for this service we can immediately schedule you. For patients who want to utilize insurance we will need to go through a verification process (similar to when you began therapy) to help you understand the costs.
TeleHealth is new to the physical and occupational therapy world, so we are learning as we go. We are currently up-to-date, and continue to study, which insurances accept and do not accept TeleHeath for physical and occupational therapies.
If you are interested in scheduling a TeleHealth appointment, please call 760-444-0102 and press 1 to get to our scheduling department. Please leave a message if our scheduling department does not answer (our schedulers are very busy during this crisis) and we will return your call promptly.
