Recovery for Relief
Pilates, Cold Plunge, and Recovery Sessions
Good morning! It’s been a tough few weeks in Florida.
Hurricane Helene brought an unprecedented storm surge to the Gulf Coast, destroying entire communities and reshaping the landscape. While Hurricane Milton brought relentless winds and a deluge of rain to at the Central portion of Florida, destroying trees, power lines, and devastatingly, more communities.
We first and foremost hope that you and your family members are safe and secondly, that any damages were absent or minimally sustained.
Unfortunately, we understand this is not the case for everyone. We are firm believers that communities heal quicker, better, and stronger, together. There has never been a more important time to help each other than right now.
In an effort to support our communities in need of assistance with food and funds, Forward Physio, Pilates with Heather, and Pause Midtown will be hosting and providing recovery based services at Apex Performance this Saturday from 9am-1:00pm. Apex Performance is located at 7711 Cheri Ct. Tampa, Florida 33634.
Events to help support the community:
9:00am-1:00pm:
💆 Forward Physio is offering cupping and massage to help with relief of sore muscles, stress, and general well being. We ask that you bring a donation of a non-perishable item (canned good, pasta, peanut butter, etc). Forward Physio will be dropping off these items at Feeding Tampa Bay in order to help provide food to those directly affected by the hurricanes.
⏸️ Pause will be there starting at 9am offering cold plunges and compression boot therapy for free. Destress and let your nervous system relax by utilizing these free recovery services and learn about the immense benefits of both cold plunge and compression therapy.
10:30am-12:00pm:
🧘 Pilates With Heather is hosting a pilates class for any/all levels. If you have never tried pilates, now is a great time to start! Get a great workout in to help stimulate endorphins and support our local communities. The cost is a $15 donation where all proceeds will go to those directly impacted by Hurricane Helene and Hurricane Milton. You can sign up here. Please bring your own mat!
Recovery for Relief
In addition to these events, Forward Physio is providing free Recovery Services to first responders, linemen, and grocery store employees until the end of October. It is a small token of gratitude to these heroes. If you know a local hero who you think would benefit from our services, please let them know. They can reach out to us through phone/text (813)-603-7071 or instagram @fwd.physio.
We thank you for your efforts in helping to heal our communities and can’t wait to see you all there!
