How do you handle stress? Do you even know if you’re stressed? We live in a society that’s always on the go, and most of love tend to put too much on our plate.... Now. That’s fine..... in short bursts. There’s this fable that if a frog is put in a pot of boiling water, it’ll jump right out. But if the frog is placed in the pot of water before it even starts to heat up, it’ll just stay there as the water keeps heating up until the frog eventually boils alive. Does this sound familiar? We (myself included) will keep adding more and more onto our plate, and we don’t even realize that we’re heading towards boiling water, or that we’re already there. Chronic stress can have big repercussions in your immune system, mental health, physical wellbeing, and many more aspects of your health. Book in if you’re in need of a little support! . . . . . .

Covid Restriction Update Hey everyone! As most of you know, Alberta has been put back to Step 1 of the restrictions. I wanted to let you know that most manual therapists: Chiropractors, Physiotherapists, Acupuncturists, Athletic Therapists, Massage Therapists, and Osteopathic Manual Therapists are still able to work under these restrictions. The only restriction is that you have to book an appointment and cannot do a walk-in.... So, keep booking in as needed for your mental and physical health needs! We’ll be here for you. . . . . . . by @hasinakassam . #massagetherapist #massage #therapist #manualtherapist #osteopathystudent #stressmanagement #stressreduction #studentofosteopathy #studentlife #alwayslearning #student #yychealing #alternativemedicine #manualtherapy #calgarylife #calgary #yyc #yycliving #yycmassage #painmanagement #localbusiness

My finals may be in May, but they feel like they’re coming in REALLY fast. You’ll probably see a lot more studying content from me until then. That’s all that’ll be floating around in my brain.

Craniosacral therapy is a holistic approach to treating the human body by looking at the cranium, the sacrum (the big bone at the bottom of your spine, sometimes referred to as the tailbone), and all the structures that connect the two (spine, connective tissue, muscles), creating the craniosacral complex. After assessing the client’s body, the therapist applies gentle pressure to any of the structures in the craniosacral complex that needs attention. This can be a very relax...ing treatment, and clients can often fall asleep during it, especially if their cranium is being treated. Craniosacral therapy can help an array of issues, including: migraine/headaches, neck pain, TMJ pain, sinus issues, colic and feeding problems in infants. . . . . . . . . . . . #osteopathystudent #studentofosteopathy #yychealing #craniosacraltherapy #craniosacral #alternativemedicine #manualtherapy #calgarylife #calgary #yyc #yycliving #yycmassage #massagetherapist #massage #therapist #chronicpain #manualtherapist #painmanagement #localbusiness #yycbusiness #calgaryliving #calgarybusiness

Pelvic and Abdominal pain can come from a number of reasons, but one culprit is adhesions between organs. Each organ is surrounded by peritoneum, which is connective tissue/fascia. Healthy connective tissue is supposed to help structures glide along each other for proper function, but with trauma, inflammation, or surgery, adhesions or scar tissue can form, causing those structures to start to stick together. This can lead to restrictions in movement, bloating, discomfort, ...and pain. If you’re experiencing pain or discomfort in your abdomen or pelvis, and it’s not going away with the approaches you’ve tried, consider coming in to get that looked at!

Circulation . Your circulatory system is one of the first systems to be developed embryologically, so you might say that it’s pretty important. . Any tension in soft tissue, lack of mobility, and inflammation can all alter flow in your circulation. You need healthy flow in and flow out of blood and lymph to properly irrigate and drain each area of your body.... . If irrigation is slowed down or stopped, there will be less nutrients and oxygen to supply a specific area. If drainage is slowed down or stopped, then the byproducts and waste of your body’s functions will build up. . Proper circulation everywhere in your body is key! Make sure that you get regular treatment to tune-up or to take care of injuries (new and old). . . . . . . . . #massagetherapist #massage #therapist #manualtherapist #osteopathystudent #studentofosteopathy #studentlife #alwayslearning #student #yychealing #alternativemedicine #manualtherapy #calgarylife #calgary #yyc #yycliving #yycmassage #painmanagement #localbusiness #yycbusiness #myofascialrelease #myofascial #myofascialtherapy #fascia #fascialrelease #holistichealth #holisticwellness See more
