Root & Branch Community,

First of all thank you to all of your support and commitment during our new business venture. We would not be where we are today if it weren’t for all of you!

We are proud to announce that we will be moving to a new location as of January 1, 2021! Both Integrative Fitness and Physical Therapy businesses will be making to move.

If any of you have been to our current petite location on Belmont then you will understand why we are upgrading to a bigger space with more options for privacy and safe physical distancing. With a bigger space we will be able to promote physical distancing more effectively and with higher ceilings there will be more opportunities for diffuse airflow.

Our new location is in the historical Shogren Building at 1235 SE Grand Ave, Portland, OR 97214 and there are a couple of pictures below.

Our new space has 2-hour metered parking around the entire building, however we are currently looking into providing discounted parking booklets of 10 passes to provide to all Root & Branch clients. These passes will be for Zone G and we will update you as soon as possible once we figure this out.

We look forward to establishing our roots in a bigger pot so that we can all branch out together. Please let us know if you have any questions.

Daily dose of Kai. He just wanted to remind you that more doesn’t always mean faster and better. Sometimes we have to take the time, and listen to our bodies in our PT exercises to see progress. Keep up the good work, and keep those PT exercises as part of your routine!

Let’s talk about the deal with Whoop! The reason why Dr. Alex likes the Whoop! band so much is that it helps you understand what your body is trying to tell you. What do those feelings mean when your working out? How much sleep do you need? Whoop can help you answer those questions.

Take time to notice how you feel when you walk and run. Maybe it’s time to come in and see Dr. Alex and get the perfect shoe!

Introducing some of Dr. Alex’s thoughts. We will periodically post thoughts, advice, interesting facts you may be wondering yourself. As we have learned the importance of conversation and always allowing for questions.

Just a friendly Kai reminder to stay cool, hydrated, and make sure you take time for yourself. Maybe it’s time to schedule that PT appointment you’ve been putting off. Self care is health care.

Kai would like to take a moment to let you know about his love of shoes. Did you know that shoes are not only for fashion but can actually help or hinder your foot and ankle? When was the last time you checked in with Dr. Alex to make sure your gym shoes were helping? Maybe it’s time to come in for an assessment!

Under the watchful eye of Dr. Alex, he’ll find the smallest details. Here we can see how years of holding a shield has taught his body to hold his right shoulder higher than the left. Are you holding a shield? Literally or figuratively? How is that impacting your body??
