“Just breathe!” This is often much easier said than done! There is a great deal that goes into healthy breathing, especially given the stressors of the twenty-first century. Breathing is foundational to our health and yet many of us are not breathing well.
We’re striving for even more impact!
Our talented Physiotherapist, Christine Campbell, is extremely busy in her practice and her mentorship program has been quite successful to date! She’s searching for another Mentee to take under her wing and support us in our efforts to provide timely, effective physiotherapy services.
One of the positives of the pandemic experienced by some people, is increased physical activity! However, when we start a new activity or if we increase the duration/speed/volume of an activity too quickly, the risk of injury goes up. This includes the inflammatory and painful condition of the foot and heel, called plantar fasciitis.
As many of us have transitioned to working from home, I thought this would be a great opportunity to discuss how to set up an ergonomic office or workspace. Having a great set-up can prevent injuries, such as neck strain, carpal tunnel and repetitive strain injuries, from occurring a few weeks down the road.
We’ve noticed that a well-chosen botanical or nutraceutical anti-inflammatory supplement can significantly speed up the recovery process for some clients receiving physiotherapy. While Christine works on the mechanical and structural causes of your pain, let a Naturopathic Doctor address some of the functional and biochemical factors. This synergy is one of the reasons why practitioners at KIHC work so closely together.*
Naturopathic medicine is designed to address underlying causes of discomfort by assessing the entire person. A well developed plan can take an hour or two to create. But we understand that sometimes, all you want is a little bit of targeted support with professional guidance
This Earth Day, let’s explore healthy breathing and gratitude for fresh, clean air!
What are Breathing Pattern Disorders?
Breathing pattern disorders (BPDs) include a range of abnormal respiratory patterns, such as shallow breathing from our upper chest, or hyperventilation, where we breathe too quickly. Breathing dysfunctions impact our energy levels, mental clarity, chronic pain conditions, and overall wellbeing.
Physiotherapists are primary health care providers that have an in-depth knowledge of the body and specialized hands-on clinical skills that can assess, diagnose and treat a variety of conditions and injuries. How physiotherapists work within the guidelines is completely different, which is just one reason why I love my job. I have created my own philosophy, which is often different from other physiotherapists.
