Well we're making it through our first week of school at home and good grief if my kids don't need a little energy burn in their lives right now. Here is another fun way to incorporate some physical activity (and movement skill) into your kiddos' day!
Thank you for all of your kind feedback and support. It's so great to see everyone supporting each other right now!! Share with your friends, get those kids moving, and let's all work to keep Gretna happy and healthy
A little physical activity will go a long way in keeping your kids healthy and the adults sane over the next couple of weeks. A Card Workout is a fun way to carve out about 30 minutes of much needed energy expenditure!
It is finally Friday (!!!0 and now would be a good time to check out Nate discussing IT band pain and a few exercises to combat it. Whether you have a long run planned or just want to be outside enjoying the upcoming beautiful weather, you won't want to miss this!
Thank you to everyone attending our low back pain workshop last night! We enjoyed sharing a little knowledge on human body function and how poor postural and breathing habits can wreck havoc on your system. With some positive feedback in hand we look forward to doing more of these in the future!
We are setting up our location as a donation site during our regular business hours of 7am-6pm M-Th, 7am-5pm Friday. They are in need of small bottles of laundry detergent, dish soap, other cleaning supplies, individually packaged kitchen sponges as well as toilet paper, ziplock bags, Q-tips, cotton balls, spring/summer clothing, unopened packages of socks, underwear. Starting Monday, for every 5 items you donate, we will put your name into a drawing for a $25 gift card to the Nebraska Crossing Outlet Mall! Please consider helping if you can!!!!
Nate and I are preparing for our upcoming interactive public seminar on Low back pain(here in the clinic). This will be the first installment of our Gretna Wellness Series, a series focused on naturally building a happy and healthy community. The presentation will be interactive, and based off of our natural movement patterns, the same patterns that often cause our problems when left unchecked.
Back pain can make you miserable and put your life on hold.
Our Therapists Andrew Consbruck and Nate Dickes will explain how simple patterns of movement and poor postural habits we develop are directly responsible for your back pain, sciatica, SI joint dysfunction, piriformis syndrome, and arthritic pain. In this interactive workshop you will learn how to break those limiting habits and move freely again.Space is limited, please call to register your free spot at 402-905-9089.

Great day for a parade!
We were a little disappointed with the Super Bowl commercials, so we decided we would try our hand at commercial comedy.

Molly is a 2004 graduate of the Creighton University Doctor of Physical Therapy program. Molly has extensive outpatient orthopedic, low back pain and Sacroiliac dysfunctions and women’s health experience. Through her work in Women’s health physical therapy, she recognized the significant need and unfortunate lack of services and trained practitioners available to treat these individuals that had acquired lymphedema through other diseases and their consequent treatment options. Molly wanted to learn more about the disease and develop the skills necessary to treat those patients in the clinic. Most recently Molly has been working in Skilled nursing homes, assisted living facilities, and in the Home Health arena of therapy working with the Geriatric population, of whom she really enjoys.
Molly earned her International Certification of Lymphedema Management in 2012. She has been trained in the Leduc Method of lymphedema treatment which is one of the most researched and evidence based practice methods in the many options of training. She treats both men and women with lymphedema in the upper or lower extremities.
Molly grew up in rural Southwest Iowa as the oldest of three girls. She was involved in sport, music and the arts. She attended the University of Nebraska at Omaha majoring Exercise Science then attended Creighton University.
Following graduation from Creighton, Molly and her husband Shane, moved West and lived in Washington and Oregon for 5 years before moving back to the Midwest to be closer to family. Molly enjoys giving back to her community and serving others in need. She is often seen volunteering at Creighton for their various community projects. Molly, along with another colleague, run a volunteer Physical Therapy clinic at One World in South Omaha one time a month serving those in need of therapy that are uninsured. Molly has also recently taken on a teaching roll at Creighton in the summer modular program for Creighton’s International China Program.
Molly and Shane have three Children, Barrett (9), Mason (7), and Brenyn (2). Molly enjoys time with her family and attending her children’s activities as well as various hobbies including reading, photography, knitting, biking, traveling, trying new food, and music.
Molly and her family look forward to joining the Consbruck family at Dynamic Physical Therapy and becoming a part of the Gretna community.
