After yesterday’s blizzard, many New Yorkers are shoveling snow, cleaning off cars, and walking carefully on icy sidewalks. These winter activities can strain not just your back, but also your shoulders, knees, and hips, especially in cold weather when muscles are tighter.

As Dr. Karena Wu, Clinical Director and Owner of ActiveCare PT, shares, “Cold weather and sudden physical demands can lead to soreness or injury if the body is not prepared.”

If you are feeling pain, stiffness, or discomfort after the storm, physical therapy can help you recover safely and prevent lingering issues.
