TikTok is Making Hips Hip

Here Are the Do’s and Don’ts from Dr. Jonathan Shaw, Local Hip and Knee Surgeon at Palm Beach Orthopaedic Institute

By Gianna Picard

Some users on TikTok claim that hip stretches can help release built-up trauma and improve overall well-being. Well, different types of hip stretches have various benefits for the body – this is if you’re doing them right! Thankfully, Dr. Jonathan Shaw, a local orthopedic surgeon who specializes in hip and knee conditions at the Palm Beach Orthopaedic Institute, is sharing his expert insights on the TikTok trend – stretches involving hip flexors, how to properly perform these stretches, and what effect each has on the body. Dr. Shaw has listed out some of the popular stretches below with some “Do’s” and “Don’t’s”.

Dynamic Hip Stretches: These particular stretches involve repetitive movements that gradually increase the range of motion in your hips. Dynamic hip stretches are great for warming up before a workout and improving both mobility and flexibility. Examples include:

  • Walking Lunges
    • Do: Pay attention to form, ensuring your back is straight with your knee centered over the foot. Also, maintain an upright posture by engaging your core muscles.
    • Don’t: Let your knees go past your toes when engaging in this stretch. Poor form will increase the likelihood of your hips dropping too low and can result in discomfort. 
  • Hip Circles
    • Do: Stand with your feet in alignment with your shoulders, flex your core, and rotate your hips in a circular motion. Start with small circles and make them bigger gradually. If pain occurs when progressing, then it is highly encouraged to stop.
    • Don’t: Overstretch during rotational movements. Overstretching is likely to occur for those who have tight hips. This can lead to torn muscles and further damage. 
  • Butterfly Stretch
    • Do: Sit on the floor with the heels of your feet touching each other and stabilize yourself with your legs and hip bones. Make sure your spine is straight and your chin is tucked in. Inhale to elongate your spine and exhale your body down, touching your head to your feet.
    • Don’t: Force your knees to touch the ground, bounce your knees excessively, put tension on the lower back by arching, or push against your existing range of motion.

Hip Flexor Stretches: Especially useful for those who spend long hours sitting, these stretches help relieve tightness and discomfort in the hip flexor muscles. Examples include:

  • Kneeling Hip Flexor Stretch
    • Do: Kneel on the knee you feel comfortable stretching on and put the other leg straight in front of you. Keeping your back straight, slowly push your hips forward until you feel the tension in your hip flexors being released from the knee that is on the ground. 
    • Don’t: Arch your lower back and allow the pelvis to become unstable. Arching your back will not properly carry out the stretch, leaving the hip flexors unaffected and instead creating pressure on the lower back.
  • Pigeon Pose – a yoga pose for hip flexibility
    • Do: Begin in a downward-facing dog position and shift your weight forward, bringing your right knee toward your right wrist. Slide your right foot towards the left and flex your right toes. Slide your left leg backward, extending it straight. Ensure your hips are parallel to each other and are facing to the front. 
    • Don’t: Force your hips too far forward or allow your front knee to rotate out to the side. Pushing the hips too far forward can result in straining the hip joint and excessive pain.

Hip Stretches for Arthritis: Gentle stretches can help maintain range of motion and reduce pain for those with hip arthritis. Types of stretches:

  • Sidelying Hip Abduction
    • Do: Lie on the uninvolved side, with your lower knee bent for stability. Keep the knee straight on the involved leg, lifting the leg upward. Return to the start position and repeat.
    • Don’t: Lean forward or backward. Instead, maintain an upright posture.
  • Knee to Chest
    • Do: Lay down on your back and pull one knee to your chest, slowly. Hold the position for a few seconds and then switch legs.
    • Don’t: Pull your knee aggressively or quickly towards your chest. Doing so can result in pinching within the hip joint.

Dr. Shaw emphasizes that both static and dynamic stretching can be highly beneficial for the body. Understanding the benefits of stretches that you can hold and stretches through movement can help you choose the best approach for your needs.

A Satisfying Relationship

A Satisfying Relationship  

By Heidi Hess

Well, it’s that time of year. Let’s pull out all the pink and red heart decorations and hope to get struck by an arrow from the fictional winged mini-person in charge of love. Who is this guy, and why did someone give him arrows? Ha. Is it me, or does this holiday feel a little surface? A little superficial? Isn’t it important to show the people closest to us our love daily? Not just once a year with some crappy chocolate and $5 discount roses.

This year I’ll be turning the ripe old age of 52. Now, before you leave, thinking she’s going off on a tangent, I am but it will all make sense. Stay with me. My ladies of a certain age will understand. We get to fifty and are permanently unimpressed by a lot of things and blinded by rage. Why is that? I’ll tell you why. We sacrifice everything for everyone. Now, I know this isn’t the case for everyone. If you are one of those people, congratulations on being able to balance life and still have your needs met. But for the rest of us… it’s hard. 

We make lists of things we need: new sneakers, a haircut, a seven-day cruise to the Caribbean, only to put them aside when our kids, our partners, and our family need something. Ladies, let’s stop doing this. Our needs are just as important (maybe more important). Who takes care of us? We do. And that’s the good news. We take care of ourselves. It’s the ultimate in self-love and probably the most satisfying relationship you will ever have. 

Remember the stewardesses acting out what to do in an emergency on the airplane? They tell us to first put our oxygen masks on and then take care of the other people around us. Doesn’t that make sense? We can’t help people if we are dead. But, why does it have to be an emergency? Guess what – IT DOESN’T! Isn’t that great news? And… it’s not expensive. 

When you wake up, check in with yourself. How are you feeling? Only you know, and only you can do something about it. If you are a mom like me, wake up early, get a walk in, and do some writing. Doing those things first allows me to care for my family and not resent them. My needs have already been met, my cup is full, and I have something to give. 

Another thing you can do is set boundaries. Don’t want to see a toxic family member? Do you feel zapped of energy when you see someone? You don’t have to. Boundaries are a good way of putting your needs first. You are protecting yourself.

Making sure our kids see us modeling those behaviors helps them learn how to treat themselves and how to honor their needs. So, for this Valentine’s Day, be kind to yourself. Love yourself. It may even help you love other people more.

Girl Scouts of Southeast Florida Kicks Off 2025 Girl Scout Cookie Season

Helping girls across the region unbox brighter futures for themselves

Lake Worth, Florida (January 30, 2025) – Girl Scouts of Southeast Florida has kicked off the sweetest time of the year with the 2025 Girl Scout Cookie® season, inviting fans everywhere to satisfy their cravings while supporting girls as they build their entrepreneurial skills and strive toward brighter futures. This beloved season returns in full swing, promising both classic favorites and innovative opportunities for girls to achieve their goals.

This year’s lineup features the iconic flavors fans know and love, including Thin Mints®, Samoas®, and Tagalongs®. However, cookie enthusiasts should take note: 2025 marks the final season for the much-loved Girl Scout S’mores® cookie, so this is the last chance to savor this treat.

When girls participate in the Girl Scout Cookie Program, the largest entrepreneurial program for girls in the world, they learn essential business and leadership skills, including goal setting, money management, decision-making, people skills and business ethics. Each box of cookies sold not only helps to support girls’ ambitions but also strengthens their courage, confidence and character as they take on new challenges and embrace life-changing experiences.

“Through the Girl Scout Cookie Program, our girls develop skills that prepare them to take on the world,” said Lisa Johnson, CEO of Girl Scouts of Southeast Florida. “Every cookie purchase fuels unique opportunities for Girl Scouts to explore their passions, make an impact in their communities and gain experiences they’ll carry for a lifetime.”

Every dollar from cookie sales stays local, helping Girl Scouts of Southeast Florida troops fund inspiring activities, including outdoor adventures, service projects and travel opportunities. Community members are encouraged to support their local Girl Scouts by ordering cookies or visiting a cookie booth near them. Girl Scout Cookies are on sale in South Florida now through March 2.

How to Purchase Girl Scout Cookies in 2025

From a Girl Scout You Know: Reach out directly to a Girl Scout to purchase cookies either in person or online.

Use the Cookie Finder Tool: Visit https://www.gssef.org/en/cookies/find-cookies.html to find a booth near you.

Online Orders: Starting February 21, those who do not know a Girl Scout will be able to enter their zip code into the Cookie Finder to purchase cookies for direct shipment to your home.

In addition to supporting Girl Scouts locally, community members can participate in the 17th annual Cookies for the Military program. This initiative allows customers to donate cookies to service members both domestically and overseas, sending them a comforting “taste of home.” Last year, more than 57,798 boxes were donated, and Girl Scouts of Southeast Florida aims to reach 75,000 boxes in 2025. Since the program began, over 813,000 boxes have been shipped through partnerships with nonprofit organizations that provide care packages and support to troops and their families, including Forgotten Soldiers, Operation Homefront, the American Legion, and Soldiers’ Angels.

To support Cookies for the Military, donations can be made by purchasing a box ($6) or case ($72) from a Girl Scout or by visiting www.cookiesforthemilitary.org.

PALM BEACH COUNTY FOOD BANK RETURNS WITH 12TH ANNUAL EMPTY BOWLS PALM BEACH

Tickets and donations will support the 1 in 9 hungry neighbors in Palm Beach County

Carrie Bradburn/CAPEHART

(Palm Beach, Fla.) – Savor the flavor of giving back! On Friday, February 21, the Palm Beach County Food Bank (PBCFB) is returning with its 12th Annual Empty Bowls Palm Beach at Church of Bethesda-by-the-Sea to remind supporters “to eat simply, so others can simply eat.” Since its inception, Bethesda-by-the-Sea has underwritten the event in its entirety, with overwhelming support from the community, so that every dollar raised to attend the event directly supports the PBCFB.

Empty Bowls is a national grassroots event that raises money for hunger relief. Guests will share a basic meal of freshly baked bread from Old School Bakery, signature soups donated by local restaurants, water and a delectable bake sale all served by community leaders and local celebrities.

“Currently, one-in-nine residents are projected to be food-insecure — and every dollar raised at Empty Bowls provides five meals to support our community partners that specifically serve Palm Beach County,” said Jamie Kendall, CEO of PBCFB. “In 2024, we opened our new 24,000 square-foot community kitchen expansion, which will act as a launching pad to addressing the root causes of hunger and surpassed the one-million-dollar mark for funds raised across 11 years of Empty Bowls Palm Beach. So, this year’s signature event at the Church of Bethesda is especially exciting as we bring more of our Palm Beach supporters into the conversation of how we are reducing the empty bowls that local residents face.”

With approximately 173,000 food-insecure residents throughout Palm Beach County, PBCFB procures food from grocery stores, farmers, food distributors, wholesalers and other sources and distributes it to over 200 local community partners, including food pantries, soup kitchens and schools. In 2024, PBCFB distributed nearly 13 million meals to over 193,000 residents experiencing hunger.

Restaurants that have provided soup booths in the past include The Ben West Palm, E.R. Bradley’s Saloon, The Breakers Palm Beach, The Colony Palm Beach Hotel, The Lord’s Place Cafe Joshua, Field of Greens, Pistache, Ravish Off Ocean, Renato’s Palm Beach, Trevini Ristorante and more. Also, this year’s notable sponsors include Anne & Chris Flowers, Debbie & Michael Pucillo, DSS, Inc., Florida Power & Light, J.P. Morgan Wealth Management Palm Beach Gardens and Velocity Community Credit Union.

Guests can purchase tickets in advance for $40 per order, which provides unlimited soup tastings, a bread roll from Old School Bakery, bottle of water, cookie, goodie bag and one hand-painted ceramic bowl (while supplies last).

To purchase a ticket, please visit pbcfoodbank.org/emptybowlspalmbeach. PBCFB is located at 701 Boutwell Rd Suite A-2, Lake Worth Beach, FL. To volunteer, partner, donate, host a food drive, or for more information, visit pbcfoodbank.org or call 561-670-2518.

2025 Wisdom Warrior Challenge Returns Starting March

Palm Beach County – The Wisdom Warrior Challenge, a Florida-based nonprofit focused on age-inclusive track races, is making a strong comeback this year by offering 21 events for adults aged 50 and over starting in March. With races ranging from 50 to 1600 meters, the Challenge encourages seniors to stay active, socialize, celebrate their vitality, and challenge the common myth that aging means slowing into a sedentary lifestyle. These events are taking place across Florida, with two additional races in North Carolina, expanding the reach and impact of this inspiring initiative.

To ensure that everyone can join, the Challenge is designed with inclusivity in mind, welcoming seniors of all capabilities to take part. Each race features teams organized into categories: Independent Living Communities, 55+ Communities, Assisted Living Communities, and the Freelance Race division which is open to the general public. There are specific divisions for participants using assistive equipment such as canes, walkers, or wheelchairs and the only qualification is being 50 or older.

The founder of the nonprofit, Linda Borgmeyer MSK, OTR/L, is an occupational therapist with a master’s in kinesiology, specializing in geriatric exercise science. Linda, who is also the owner of Novoleo Therapy and Fitness in North Palm Beach, is dedicated to supporting seniors in Florida communities and helping them feel empowered. This passion motivated her to create the Wisdom Warrior Challenge.

“I founded the Wisdom Warrior Challenge in 2019 to challenge the misconceptions surrounding aging and break free from the limitations often tied to that narrative,” said non-profit founder Linda Borgmeyer. “We have much more control over how we age and making better choices for our physical and emotional health enhances the golden years. If you are over the age of 50 and are interested in participating, I encourage you to do so!” 

The Wisdom Warrior Challenge is free for all participants thanks to support from sponsors such as Healthcare Solutions, Fox Rehab, AARP Florida, Dignity Memorial, Always Best Insurance, Visiting Angels, Trustbridge, Novoleo Therapy and Fitness, Home Suite Home, Social Savvy Seniors, Partnership for Aging, Roaming Medical, and Shoreline Insurance.

Revitalize Your Passion This Valentine’s Day with the DRIP BaR Royal Palm Beach’s Vitality Drip Therapy for Increased Libido

By Gianna Picard

Valentine’s Day is a well-known holiday, focused on celebrating love and affection – involving sweet chocolates, delectable wines, and special dinner dates to spark the mood. With the month of love already here, the DRIPBaR in Royal Palm Beach is shedding light on one of the programs offered at the facility – tailored to enhancing sexual libido for an increased sex drive in both men and women.

The Vitality IV drip therapy is designed to increase blood flow and heart health, as well as stimulate hormone secretion, support arousal, and of course, increase libido. The Vitality formula consists of important vitamins and minerals to help maintain sexual health. Specifically, with the blended mixture of Magnesium Chloride, B12, Taurine, Ascorbic Acid, B-complex, Arginine, Calcium Chloride, and Carnitine. 

Altogether, this comprehensive mixture is tailor-made for someone seeking to combat the symptoms of aging or decreased energy levels and those who are seeking ways to rekindle the spark in their intimate relationship. Below, we’ve attached what each component of the Vitality mixture consists of and what it does to the body.

  1. Magnesium Chloride
  • Has the ability to boost and regulate energy levels, support the nervous system, boost energy, and decrease blood pressure. Magnesium also aids in neurotransmitter functions in the brain, especially when involving sleep and stabilizing mood.
  1. B12
  • Helps with maintaining brain and nerve function by facilitating the production of myelin, allowing one’s nerve function to be regulated and preventing damage to nerve fibers. It also acts as a coenzyme in metabolic function, helping the body absorb energy from foods. Overall, B12 combats fatigue by regulating and increasing energy levels in the body.
  1. Taurine
  • Can improve muscle function and reduce oxidative stress by increasing antioxidants in the body. Taurine can also burn fat during exercise, helping to enhance performance – allowing you to feel and look good!
  1. Ascorbic Acid: 
  • Promotes collagen synthesis by consisting of Vitamin C. It can decrease joint pain and maintain strong and healthy bones. Ascorbic Acid also can support the function of immune cells and is known to be a potent antioxidant. So, if there is pain that is holding you back from engaging in intercourse, there is a solution!
  1. B-Complex: 
  • With a mixture of B vitamins, one’s energy can be increased due to the breakdown of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats from food consumption. Immunity is also boosted since B-complex aids in the production of white blood cells to fight infections and regulate inflammation to protect cells against potential damage.
  1. Arginine: 
  • Helps with cardiovascular health, including combatting conditions such as erectile dysfunction in men, and can help improve sexual intercourse. Arginine is also helpful for detoxifying heavy metals and ammonia.
  1. Calcium Chloride: 
  • Increases calcium levels in the body, treating conditions involving low calcium, and also protects the heart from high potassium levels. Additionally, it regulates or reduces heart and lungs that may have high magnesium levels.
  1. Carnitine: 
  • Maintains heart health by improving cardiac metabolism and overall function. It can increase the energy supply within the heart and help diseases such as chronic circulatory failure. Brain function is also supported by Caritine, as it can impact the brain’s function relative to sexual activity. This can result in increased libido and enhanced sexual performance. 

By promoting your physical, emotional, mental, and social well-being, you can fully embrace your sexuality. The Vitality drip therapy is overall designed to increase blood flow and heart health, stimulate hormone secretion, and support arousal that will lead to increased libido in both men and women. The DRIPBaR in Royal Palm Beach is offering this drip in hopes of making this Valentine’s Day extra special by enhancing sexual health for lovers, with hopes to help rekindle your spark in relationships.To learn more about the DRIPBaR Royal Palm Beach, please visit https://thedripbar.com/royal-palm-beach-fl/
