Magic of Motion

Being physically active isn’t just for athletes, it’s for everyone! Exercise is important to your body’s health because like a machine, if you don’t use it the parts can get rusty and break down. Exercise even helps protect us against poor COIVD-19 outcomes. Choosing to exercise will help you sleep better, stress less and keep your body healthy.  Meet local physical therapists and students, while discovering the ways exercise and exploring your creative side can help you manage stress and keep your heart and muscles strong. Step into the world of a physical therapist as you explore careers that will keep you in motion. This event at minimum includes the following workshops:  Muscles & Machines Get the muscles moving in your body while learning what those muscles do.
