Community Health Information for National Night Out @ Ortiz Center (rear parking lot) - August 6, 2019 - 4pm to 7pm
Teen Injury Prevention Workshop - August 17, 2019 - 10am to 11am The workshop will focus on how to perform key movement patterns to help improve balance and coordination, and increase strength in order to prevent injury. The key movement patterns will include how to bend forward without straining the back, how to squat and lunge properly to avoid low back or knee pain, and much more! The goal is to teach teens how to move their bodies in ways to reduce stress on their lower backs and joints of their hips, knees, and ankles to prevent injury. Dr. Allie will also touch on how to recognize when it may be appropriate to seek medical care for discomfort, pain and/or injuries.
