Happy Fourth of July from all of us at Jefferson Pediatrics & Family Medicine! 🇺🇸

Whether you’re catching fireworks downtown, grilling with family, or just enjoying a well-deserved day of rest, we’re wishing you a holiday filled with joy, connection, and safety.

🔥 Quick reminders for a healthy holiday:
• Keep kiddos hydrated during hot outdoor fun
• Practice sun safety—don’t forget the SPF!
• Keep sparklers and fireworks safely out of reach from little hands

👋 Ever heard of OMT but not quite sure what it is?

🩺 Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment (OMT) is a hands-on technique used by DOs (Doctors of Osteopathic Medicine) to diagnose, treat, and prevent illness or injury.

Through gentle pressure, stretching, and resistance, OMT helps:
✔️ Relieve pain
✔️ Improve motion
✔️ Support the body’s natural ability to heal

It’s safe for all ages — from babies with feeding issues to adults with chronic pain or tension.

👨‍⚕️ I’m Dr. Vijay Veerula, a board-certified Family Medicine DO practicing at Jefferson Pediatrics & Family Medicine in Fort Wayne, Indiana.

If you’re curious about OMT or wondering if it could benefit you or your child, let’s talk!

Healthy Living Tip:
Bright colors in your food often mean powerful nutrients for your body. Oranges, for example, are full of vitamin C, fiber, and antioxidants that support immunity, skin health, and energy.

So go ahead. Eat the colors of the earth. Let your plate remind you that nourishment can be vibrant, joyful, and healing. 🍊
