Woohoo!&nbsp;<br />Who? What? I have been an athletic trainer for 30 years! The sad part is... I can walk down the street, shake someone&rsquo;s hand, tell them I am an athletic trainer, and they have no idea what that is. Very sad. Very frustrating.<br />&nbsp;<br />So this year I am trying to participate in the month of celebrating AT&rsquo;s and educating others about what an AT is and does. My bio is below for you to get a bit of an idea. I will also be doing a Facebook live later in the month for commentary and questions. Would love for you to participate.&nbsp;<br />&nbsp;<br />For now, I encourage you to &lsquo;thank&rsquo; an AT in your community. They are in high schools, some middle schools, and all college/university athletics. They keep your student athletes safe and help them recover from injuries. There is a lot to keeping the athletes safe &ndash; checking equipment, checking the playing surfaces, having an emergency plan in place, evaluating and diagnosing injuries for continued play or referral, rehab of injuries, return to play evaluations to make sure the athlete is 100% to participate, checks and balance on overzealous coaches and parents, coordination with EMS and local physicians&hellip;<br />&nbsp;<br />AT&rsquo;s don&rsquo;t have degrees in ice-bag-making and ankle taping. Most have master&rsquo;s degrees in athletic training or sports medicine. They take a national certification exam. And 49 states and DC all require licensing (CA is lagging.)&nbsp;<br />&nbsp;<br />So please be aware of AT&rsquo;s, especially this month. We are the &lsquo;team behind the team.&rsquo;<br /><br /><br />Stacy Ford, Co-Owner Complete Wellness, ATC, LMT<br /><br />Stacy is an athletic trainer, massage therapist and co-founder of Complete Wellness. She has a<br />degree in sports medicine and national certifications in athletic training and massage therapy.<br />Much of her career (25 years and counting) has been as an athletic trainer in various settings<br />including high school, physical therapy, fitness center, physician office, college/university,<br />military and federal law enforcement.<br /><br />She has had many career highs including high school state championships, first round women&rsquo;s<br />basketball to the NCAA tournament, Friday night football under the lights, minor league<br />basketball and football, creating specific programs, and writing P&amp;amp;P for schools and venues.<br /><br />She considers her greatest accomplishments as working with the US Coast Guard Academy in<br />New London, CT and the Drug Enforcement Administration and FBI training centers at<br />Quantico, VA where she was able to use her skills to help sustain and advance careers.<br /><br />As an athletic trainer, Stacy used a hands-on approach to help the body heal and strengthen.<br />She chose to work with athletes and the active population for their work ethic and mindset to<br />challenge the body, mind and spirit for prevention, rehabilitation and return-to-activity.<br /><br />&#8203;She has since transitioned her own methods to the general population using massage therapy,<br />stretching techniques and simple exercises. Her goals are for her clients to leave feeling and<br />functioning better than when they walked in, and to have tools for use at home to continue<br />gains made in the session in order to ease/relieve chronic conditions.<br /></div> <hr style="width:100%;clear:both;visibility:hidden;"></hr>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[The wonder of Christmas]]></title><link><![CDATA[https://www.cwquakertown.com/cw-blog/the-wonder-of-christmas]]></link><comments><![CDATA[https://www.cwquakertown.com/cw-blog/the-wonder-of-christmas#comments]]></comments><pubDate>Sat, 14 Dec 2024 17:33:51 GMT</pubDate><category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.cwquakertown.com/cw-blog/the-wonder-of-christmas</guid><description><![CDATA[ &#8203;When I was a little girl (sigh, far off look), mom and dad did an amazing job of bringing the wonder and magic of Christmas to life.

I know it was hectic for my mom working full time, shopping for and wrapping gifts, getting the house ready for the very large Ford family gathering (weeks before the actual holiday), baking cookies, baking a red velvet cake, making fudge, baking more cookies (mom was known for her chocolate chip cookies.) Dad worked full time, decorated outside with lights and our big, plastic Frosty snowman. He set up for the upcoming Ford party.&nbsp;<br />&nbsp;<br />My brother and I would &lsquo;help.&rsquo; We loved to help bake the cookies, decorate the tree, put out the decorations&hellip; it was mom&rsquo;s favorite time of year, not just a holiday. Christmas music would play all day. We would watch all the animated holiday shows in the evenings with the tree lit in the room.&nbsp;<br />&nbsp;<br />Christmas morning was tough. I am sure, looking back, it was harder for my parents. Pretty sure they were up late and, of course, we were up early. But, we could only open our stockings until 8:30 when our grandparents came over. 8:30! That was like forever. Looking over the pile of presents. Cookies and milk for breakfast. Definitely built the anticipation.&nbsp;<br />&nbsp;<br />Truthfully, I remember quite a few gifts I received over the years. Mom was great at getting the perfect gifts. One year though, I was about 6, Santa&rsquo;s elves (Dad and a few friends) built a play kitchen for me. 4 pieces &ndash; sink, stove, fridge and cabinet with open shelving. Knobs, sink, faucet, oven grate. Details. I didn&rsquo;t notice until I was much older that some of the inside shelving was pieces of paneling left over from our bathroom. It was amazing. I still have it. A treasure.&nbsp;<br />&nbsp;<br />All this to say, find the wonder in the holiday and every day. Enjoy the moment so it becomes a memory. Christmas is a time many of us remember all the good stuff. Let&rsquo;s make the effort to find and remember more good stuff throughout the year.&nbsp;<br />&nbsp;<br />Happy holidays for all that you celebrate, Stacy, Tracy and the CW Crew</div> <hr style="width:100%;clear:both;visibility:hidden;"></hr>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[Find YOUR Joy...]]></title><link><![CDATA[https://www.cwquakertown.com/cw-blog/find-your-joy]]></link><comments><![CDATA[https://www.cwquakertown.com/cw-blog/find-your-joy#comments]]></comments><pubDate>Sat, 09 Nov 2024 14:07:00 GMT</pubDate><category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.cwquakertown.com/cw-blog/find-your-joy</guid><description><![CDATA[ Imagine it.&nbsp; You love the holiday season.&nbsp;You plan things and do things AND You actually ENJOY the things.You are not harried and worried and overworked.&nbsp;You are not exhausted and grumpy and unfocused.Thats right.&nbsp; It really happened!And how, pray tell, did this bit of holiday magic happen this year.Because you set up YOUR Joy first.

Ice helps to close the gates. We don&rsquo;t want them completely closed as that will hinder the necessary healing elements from reaching the injury. But, too much swelling can add to the pain factor and diminish further range of motion. (Think of how difficult it can be to move with your big, puffy, bulky winter wear.)</font><br /><br /><font color="#2a2a2a">Heat conversely, opens the gates to allow increased blood flow. (Which can increase swelling so only use when there is no risk of swelling.) When there is a sore or tight muscle, using heat to encourage blood flow helps to &lsquo;loosen&rsquo; up the area. (Think of how a wet sponge is more pliable than a dry one.)</font><br /><font color="#2a2a2a">Many prefer heat over ice because it feels more comforting. Simple rule of thumb is&hellip; new injury, especially with swelling, use ice. Couple days old, no swelling and still having some aches, mild pain, you can use heat.&nbsp;<br /><br />And a basic rule for activity is heat before (warm up) and ice after (cool down.)&nbsp;</font><br /><br /><font color="#2a2a2a">Use for 15-20 minutes per hour. Heating or icing for too long sends a message that the body part is too hot or too cold and starts reversing the effects of the treatment. Meaning, if you ice for too long, the body senses the body part is too cold and starts increasing blood flow. Now you are increasing swelling again. And, it&rsquo;s best to ice with the affected area in a gentle stretch. For example, if it&rsquo;s your knee, ice it bent. Then it won&rsquo;t be tight from icing when you go to bend it after. (A rubber band in the freezer is not very elastic. Neither are your muscles or tendons.)&nbsp;<br /><br />Stacy Ford is a Certified Athletic Trainer and Licensed Massage Therapist with a focus on Youth Athletes, and new client assessment for those with limited range of motion or function.&nbsp;<br />She is available for appointments most weekdays.&nbsp; <br />Stacy can't be scheduled online.
