H O W W E H E A L inliammation is tiie initial response to

injury. As blood vessels in surrounding tissues dilate, a variety ol substances are released such as white blood cells which arrive to remove dead tissue and other debris. These and other vascular changes produce heat, swelling, and redness, while the subsequent pain and stillness serve to immobilize injured ares. A day or two alter the injury, the body begins to replace injured tissue. First, damaged cells are flushed for the air, then a network of capillaries forms to introduce oxygen and nutrients into the injury site. Then for ihe next two to three weei^s, colla-gen will grow into a puckered, inelastic scar thai remains weak and can cause tightness and discomfort, particularly in muscles. At Norlhville Physical Therapy &

Rehabilitation Inc., we know nothing is more frustrating than losing mobility and full range of motion. Using physical therapy techniques, we worl< closely with patients to assure a quick recovery and to iniorrn them of how to prevent future injuries. To schedule a consulta lion, call 349-3816, or see us at 332 E. Main Street. Suite A. Our staff now has three physical therapists including an athletic trainer and an exercise physiol­ogist. We have early and late business hours including weekends, insurance is welcome.

P.S. When recovery from inury is attended to properly through physical therapy, the injured muscle or tendon can generally be expected to regain 80 to 95 percent ol its original strength within three to six months.

very family has its traditions, Gathering

for SuntJay dinner. Mark ing anniversaries

and celebrating birthdays. Unfortunately

some families share more than happy times

. . . they also share the risk of certain illnesses.

Breast cancer-~which n o w strikes one in nine

American women—is among them. If your nlother,

grandmother, aunt or sister has been diagnosed w i th

this disease, your doctor probably has explained the

added risk you face. But unl ike women in past

generations, you can put t ime and technology on

your side.

We at tl ie Marian Women's Center, St. Mary

Hospital, encourage you to see your doctor regularly

whatever your age and, once you reach 40, to see us

for a mammogram. Our mammography services are

together certified radiologists and staff, personalized

education and high-tech imaging equipment approved
