Hello Mint Members,
It’s Trupti here… from Manual Medicine Spine & Sports Physical Therapy at MINT Downtown.
I’ve got something exciting to share with you today especially as Spring weather is upon us, and you all want to enjoy the next many months of great running, biking and hiking weather. I’ve had several members coming in to check in with me, lately. Some have finally wanted to address some past injuries/ailments that they have put off while hibernating in the Winter. Others have been coming in to address injuries/ailments they have developed from Winter sports, but want to continue to enjoy an active lifestyle during the Spring, Summer and Fall.
Therefore, I’ve put together a special FREE offer on getting a 30-minute Free Discovery session at my clinic in MINT downtown this week (March 27 – March 31, 2017)
The Discovery session offers you a chance to get me to assess and evaluate that knee or back or neck or shoulder issue that has been affecting your ability to work out in the gym, lift weights or go out running/hiking/biking or attend your spin, yoga or barre class. If you are having difficulty sitting or standing at your computer because of neck or back trouble, this is your chance to get a free assessment. You will also walk away with some healthy tips to set yourself on the right path to recovery.
(Perfect way to get yourself some answers so you can quickly get back to being active and mobile again!)
Anyways, here’s the deal…
This special offer for this week is exclusively going out by email, and as you’re reading this today, I don’t want you to miss out.
There’s only 5 spaces available…
So if you’d like to finally get back to an active and mobile lifestyle without that knee or back or neck/shoulder pain stopping you from doing what you enjoy, or even has been keeping you from moving forward out of fear, email now at mmssphysicaltherapy@gmail.com, OR give us a call on (202) 670 8874 where you can leave a message – and I’ll save a space in my calendar for you!
Call or email soon! These spaces fill up QUICK!
Trupti☺
P.S. These discovery sessions are very helpful…
I have already helped a good number of MINT members get back to a better and more active lifestyle with some great tips on injury prevention and staying active and mobile through the Spring, Summer and Fall.
Email or Call ASAP – the first 5 people get to save a space!

When a friend sends you an email that starts with “you’re a genius!” you know you might be onto something. I’m about to share with you the trick that I taught her and I hope you’ll love it as well.
For the past several months, I’ve returned home from the gym in the morning to a breakfast that’s already ready to go. Have I hired a personal chef? Has a neighbor snuck into my apartment and made my breakfast? Am I getting breakfast delivered? No, no and no. (But how fun would a personal chef be?)
Instead, I’ve been taking around 20 minutes on the weekend to create breakfast parfaits in advance. I start with my favorite yogurts and a bunch of reusable serving-size storage containers. I then get as creative as I want to be with other ingredients that go in. Usually I start with a layer of frozen blueberries on bottom. From there, anything goes! My ingredients have included chopped almonds, chopped walnuts, hazelnuts (so fancy!), frozen raspberries, frozen mango, strawberries, chopped ginger (fabulous for decreasing inflammation after a workout), chia seeds, cocoa nibs (hi healthy chocolate for breakfast), dried raisins, cranberries, more blueberries…you get the idea.
I set up a little assembly line and make as many parfaits as I have containers. Voilà! Into the fridge they go and breakfast is ready for the entire week. Since I do this all at once, I use a much wider variety of ingredients then I would if I had to assemble each one individually every single morning.
I’ll leave it to you to pick your favorite healthy additions, but let me add some tips about yogurt: I use two entire large containers for the week’s worth of parfaits. (Bonus win for the planet with fewer empty containers to recycle.) For my taste, I usually select one Greek and one regular yogurt for a nice consistency, but at LEAST one is always whole fat and both are PLAIN. The 80s are over and thank goodness they took their big hair and the anti-fat let’s-load-everything-with-sugar craze with them. (Sayonara SnackWell’s!) You don’t need to obsessively read nutrition labels, but next time you’re picking up yogurt, pick up one plain and one sweetened and just check out the grams of sugar in each. (I’ll wait while you freak out about the difference…) The sugar lobby what? Yeah, don’t get me started. Just pretty please put the one that should be labeled as dessert down and take the plain one home. Your body will thank you.
Enjoy your parfaits and the extra time you’ll save yourself each morning!
