People are ALWAYS asking us for relationship advice. Just kidding. That never happens. BUT! We will say this. Those that ICE together, stay together. Forever ever. ... Okay. We don’t actually even know if that is true. BUT, icing is a REALLY good idea. You hear us talk about it all of the time (like, ALL of the time) in clinic. It reduces inflammation=aids in recovery. So, who’s icing tonight? We are!!!!!

you make the best darn lemonade! Today was our first day in clinic for 2021, and it started with a wee bit of water It could have stopped us, but instead, we just got out the mops, called on our trusted contractors and carried on with an incredible day of taking care of our patients!... After mustering through 2020 and coming out the other side still smiling, laughing even, we weren’t going to let a little water {and a collapsed bathroom ceiling } get us down! And tomorrow, we’ll roll up our sleeves and get right back to taking care of our community! We’re back to our regular clinic schedule. And if today was a sign of what the year has in store, it’s going to be a GREAT one waterworks and all Give us a call or book online. Spots are super limited.

Goooooood morning! Today is the day! Your healthcare team is heading back in to clinic! We are in clinic today 9am-6:30pm... We are looking forward to seeing your sparkly eyes See you soon!

We’ve had a GREAT vacation. We are well rested, recharged, and ready to roll out 2021 in the clinic! The whole crew returns to clinic tomorrow, Monday, January 4th with a return to full and regular hours. You can jump online to book an appointment through our website, or give us a call tomorrow in clinic. ... We’ve missed your faces. Thank you for allowing our team a chance to fill our own cups. We’re ready to fill yours now

For those of you that wonder why we don’t work Friday’s or how we spend our Professional Development days....here’s a little sneak peak of how we spend that time Yep! That’s right, we snuggle in with our ‘The Comfy’ super cozy, fleece lined blanket shirts Working from home is simply not an option for our team, even during a pandemic. When people suggest it, we have to giggle. Healthcare (amongst many other sectors) simply can not do what we do from home. We haven’t... stopped working with the public the entire time-and we are so grateful for that. SO very grateful. With that said, in our downtime-we are practicing the art of doing next-to-nothing; short of keeping active outside. May your weekend be full of rest & relaxation. We’re back at it first thing Monday morning

5 Good Things continued! For those of you that don’t know me, hi! I’m Katie, and 99.99% of the time I am the first face you’ll see as you enter the clinic, and the last one you’ll see as you leave. Consider me the bread on your TCHIRO sandwich (sourdough, soft, warm, a real flop if you don’t get the timing right ) I have so much to be grateful for in 2020-But here are a few of the highlights!... My health. Short of a quick 1.5 week hiatus, I was able to work alongside Dr.B the entire year. That meant that we were able to continue to provide care to our community throughout the entire pandemic, without as much as a sniffle. I chose to face some fears this year and get over myself and get back out in the trails/ hills. This has been integral for my mental health. I can relate to so many of our patients with injuries/post-op etc, and mine have held me back for too long. You’ve just gotta’ get out there! Love, Family & New Friends! We celebrated our 5th wedding anniversary! Time spent with family was limited this year, but we did manage to make it to my favourite lake and spend time with my favourite humans. We also mastered the art of driveway drinks with our new neighbours who have become some of our best friends! It’s hard to sum up how grateful I am for them coming into our lives and keeping us social during all the isolation of 2020 I spent more time in our kitchen & growing my own veggies-creating masterpieces for us to enjoy. I found my pleasure and creativity again in this department! With the extra time on our hands I also took some pleasure courses online-travelling to vineyards all around the world from home! We moved to a chalet in the middle of the woods and it has been our saving grace. It’s where we unwind, read, relax, recharge and laugh-a lot. To me, that is priceless. We can’t wait to be able to actually host people in 2021! We continued to #supportlocal through farmers markets, local shops and restaurants-and my grew with a passion for doing so! We have so much to be grateful for right in our own backyards, and these ventures filled the lack of travel void. It also opened my eyes to more of the beauty that we have right here in Ontario-and where I will be investing my time and money in the year to follow! Let the adventures continue! Here’s to you all! I am so grateful for our team, our patients and each other.

‘Tis the season for cupping! Look at this work of art courtesy of Dr.B... Cupping increases blood circulation to the area where the cups are placed. This may relieve muscle tension, which can improve overall blood flow and promote cell repair. It may also help form new connective tissues and create new blood vessels in the tissue. We use cupping to complement patient care for a host of issues and conditions. We love this modality!

One week today and Santa will be on his way! That also means that your healthcare team will be wrapping up for Christmas vacation [2020 style, with nowhere to go ] There is exactly one week left in clinic for 2020 *please note Christmas Eve is a short 8am-11am*... Give us a call or book online! Limited spaces left for the year.

It’s been a week! A full, wonderful, crazy-week! We have a couple of more hours in the clinic before we wind down our human practice, and gear up for taking care of the equine & canine variety this weekend. Animal Chiropractic, yep! We do that too! Your entire team is back at it on Monday! Give us a call or book online! ... Have a great weekend everyone. Don’t forget to laugh, the world is crazy enough. Ps-who else likes to get cracked?

we made it, guys! We. Made. It. What a year in clinic it has been. Despite the chaos of 2020, we found our calm-and we kept showing up every week in clinic. Thank YOU for giving us a reason to do that. While a lot of the world stopped-we were grateful to continue to move forward in providing you and your family with the care you needed so that you could continue to take care of yourself and those you love. You reminded us of our purpose this year. ... 2020 is winding down. One week tomorrow is our last day in clinic for the year. There is still time to get in and prioritize your health. 2021-we’re looking at you

Dr.B may get to play with puppies, but Katie gets serenaded by awesome patients. Who’s got the best job now?! Volume up ... It truly IS the most wonderful time of the year

And just like that, 2020 is winding down. Seriously. We can hardly believe it. 5 weeks tomorrow is Christmas Eve, and for the first time in the history of the clinic, we have made a BIG decision to close the clinic between Christmas and the New Year! Despite the craziness of 2020, we have had our biggest year ever of helping our community, and your team of healthcare providers are looking forward to some downtime so that we can head into 2021 strong, healthy and rested!... That means that there are exactly five more weeks to book your appointments, and as you know-they fill up quickly in the final weeks of the year, and especially this year with our built in break! Give us a call, or book online. As the old saying goes-when it comes to your health benefits, use ‘em or lose ‘em! Wrap up 2020 in the healthiest way possible!

Friday’s are for the dogs! We spent the morning taking care of a few four legged friends! People often ask: how do dogs respond to chiropractic adjustments? We think these pics say it all! This is Cleo. Today we did a home visit for Cleo and her big brother Hercules! They were both absolute rockstars, and as you can see-Cleo loved every second of it ... A morning spent with dogs is the perfect way to roll into the weekend Hey humans, we’re back at it Monday morning! Have a fabulous weekend, get outside and enjoy those vibrant leaves!

Whenever we have a holiday, and our days in clinic are cut short by one day-it all feels a little whirlwind-y. It’s been a robust week in clinic. We’ve been running off of our feet, and it’s been a beautiful reminder of how amazing the work we get to do with you is. Today is the final day in clinic for our team. Dr.Morgan is in clinic 8am-2pm and Dr.Brent is in clinic 8am-6pm. There are very limited appointments left, but give us a call or try and sneak what’s left online. *...there are no massage appointments left for the week* We hope you find something beautiful to reflect on today. For us-it’s this view and those leaves!

From your head to your toe, and everything in between, even those testy little ankles, we’ve got you covered. Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday appointments available this week!

Today, especially, we remember. We are so grateful for the freedom that we have because so many were willing to go before us, leave their families, and lay down their own lives. Though the day may look a lot difference this year without the mass gatherings, be sure to take a moment today wherever you are and reflect on all of the sacrifices made. ... We are grateful

We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again: we have the BEST patients! And cookies are for sure Dr.Thompson’s love language! We are in the clinic Monday-Thursday this week as we head into a long weekend of giving thanks! ... Give us a call or book online

It’s here. October. You know what that means? It means we have successfully survived 2020 up until this point. All of us. Most likely the strangest year we have experienced. And so, we welcome October with open arms. ... The whole crew is in the clinic all day today for our final day this week. You can give us a call or book online. And hey, chin up. We’re going to get through this next month with as much ease as possible-it’s up to us how we approach it.

BABIES Oh how it has been a bustling season of babies around here. In the last month we have been a part of the transition from caring for mama right through to newborn at least a dozen times! It’s one of our most favourite things in practice. This little sweet pea is Colin. We’ve been caring for his mom, dad, big brother, grandma and aunt for YEARS. Yes, we really are a family practice! ... It’s Friday, and the clinic is now closed {what a week we had!!! } We are back at it on Monday. You can book your appointments online for next week now from the comfort of anywhere you take your phone.

Today was a day. It was a long day. It was a full day. The added covid-protocols can take their toll-and we know this is something that anyone working with the public can relate to. Thankfully, we love what we get to do-and our patients/clients make it SO worth it. Some days though, let’s be honest, you just need to be reminded of why it is that you do what you do. That reminder came several times today as we helped many acute patients. And then at the of the day-this beaut...iful card & gift arrived from one of our four legged friends {and her mama} We feel super blessed to get to do what we do-so thank you Bella for the reminder. Thank you also for reminding us of the power of a gentle/kind word-we are all a little tired and overwhelmed-but kindness and gratitude has the power to shift it all. May we continue to support each other one day at a time. Tomorrow is our final day in the clinic for the week. There are very limited appointments left, but you know we will do our absolute best to get you in!

It’s a fresh new week, and we are ready for it! We are in the clinic Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday! It’s a great week to focus on the positives, prioritize our self care AND health care, and to enjoy the glorious sunshine!... Come and get it!
