Best Practices for Pet Safety
How to avoid injury while enjoying time
with man’s best friend
Pets – especially dogs – are our best friends for a reason! They keep us company, they entertain us, and they keep us on our toes. Often, they also help to keep us active – because we need to walk them several times a day. This is not only good for the dog – it’s good for us too!
But sometimes, our pets can trip us up or knock us over – leading to an unexpected visit to the emergency room! Allied has seen more than a few patients come through their doors in need to therapy after a dog has pulled them down or caused a fall. In this month’s Wellness Connection video, Dr. Matt and his guest, Melissa (along with her faithful companion, London), talk about some ways you can avoid injury while dealing with your own – or someone else’s pets.
Whether you’re seeking help recovering from an injury or surgery, or striving to optimize your balance or performance, Allied Physical Therapy Wellness Community is here to help you achieve your goals – acting as your guide on your journey to rediscover joy, vitality, and the freedom to live life to the fullest.

Always Learning!
Allied was thrilled to host “Evaluation and Treatment of Temporomandibular Disorders and Craniofacial Pain” continuing education class this past weekend, taught by Michael Karageannes of TreatingTMJ.com. Mike is an expert in the field of Temporomandibular Disorder (TMD) and Craniofacial Pain (CFP) and we were lucky to learn from him!
