Decrease Pain, Move Better with StretchLab

Don’t take it from us. Take it from the Washington Post. As reported by health and wellness columnist Gretchen Reynolds, “If your body is flexible, you’re likely to live longer than someone whose body and joints are tight and rigid, according to the first, large-scale study of the links between flexibility and mortality.” 

In the study by Claudio Gil S. Araujo, 3,139 men and women between ages 46 and 65 completed an evaluation of overall flexibility. Researchers followed them for more than a decade. They found that people with the stiffest joints — especially women — were substantially more likely to die prematurely than those with greater flexibility. 

Assisted stretching decreases pain, improves posture and mobility, and increases longevity. Lance Lira, who owns Nature's Presence and is featured in the photo above, said " I give it a 10 out of 10 - it's great!"

Historic Landmark Committee Meets Today to Discuss Signage

The Historic Landmark Commission meets today, Tuesday, January 7, at 5:30 PM at City Hall, 447 N. Main Street.

A key agenda item is the proposal for a new monument sign at Tutu’s Garden, featuring dark sky-friendly lighting to preserve Boerne’s beautiful night skies. Tutu’s Garden is located at 302 South Main St. Some of you may know it as the business that replaced Boerne Wine Company.

Community members are encouraged to attend and share their input. You can also watch online.

SPECIAL ALERT: BURN BAN REINSTATED 🔥

Effective Immediately Due to Dry Conditions

As of 8:00 AM on Monday, January 6, the Burn Ban is back in effect for Kendall County.

This is due to ongoing dry vegetation, low humidity, and high wind gusts, increasing fire risk. Please refrain from any outdoor burning until further notice and take precautions to prevent accidental fires.

Let’s work together to keep Boerne safe!
