Have you been injured in a motor vehicle accident (MVA) or are on long-term disability (LTD)? If so, keep in mind YOU get to decide where YOU complete YOUR rehab, not the insurance company!

More and more often we hear clients tell us they were told to travel out of town for rehab to a clinic they are unfamiliar with. Too often, the client is made to feel the choice is not theirs.

Apollo can easily work with your insurance claims representative to get approval for the rehabilitation that is required following a MVA or for a LTD claim.

It is YOUR health.
YOU decide.

Call us today to start your MVA/ LTD rehab, or to inquire about switching from an out-of-town clinic your insurance company currently has you attending!

68 DAYS UNTIL POTS ARE IN THE WATER!

Apollo's health professionals are here to serve the lobster fishers and land workers involved in the upcoming lobster season. Do not delay starting your rehab any longer!

We are here to treat any chronic or new injuries that may prevent you from working at your full potential this coming season. Not injured but ''out of shape''? We can help with that too by providing exercise programs and treatment that help "bulletproof" the back, shoulders, and knees.

Please share/ tag a lobster fisher or land worker you think could benefit from our services!

🚀2024 REVIEW🚀

What a year 2024 has been at APOLLO! As we reflect back on 2024 we first want to thank our clients for choosing us for your rehab, performance, and recovery goals! We also want to thank our local MDs, NPs, RMTs, and other healthcare professionals in our communities who continue to be great referral sources for us!

A few key highlights of 2024 include:
⭐️500+ new clients walked through our doors in 2024.
⭐2300+ followers on Instagram and Facebook.
⭐️In the Spring of 2024 we expanded Apollo to Yarmouth County. We opened a satellite clinic inside Strong Tides CrossFit with the goal of providing care with a fitness forward mindset and values.
⭐️2 new Physiotherapists joined the team in late 2023 and early 2024. Kaylie and Courtney have made wonderful additions to our team. With four Physiotherapists now on staff we can confidently say we are well equipped at APOLLO to help you reach your REHAB, PERFORMANCE, and RECOVERY goals in a TIMELY manner!
⭐️Our Physiotherapists can now prescribe x-rays, making it easier for our clients to receive the medical care they require in a timely manner.

Outside of the clinic we also had many highlights:
⭐️4 babies joined the APOLLO family in late 2023 and 2024.
⭐️Our staff travelled the world! (Africa, Europe, NYC, Florida, Montreal, Caribbean).
⭐️Advancing our expertise. Our staff took courses specializing in sleep, infertility, IBS, sport medicine, athletic therapy/ taping, dry needling, imaging and diagnostics, sport first responder, women's/ pelvic health and manual therapy skills and clinical reasoning.
⭐️Community involvement. Our staff coached, volunteered, participated, and supported various sports and organizations including SCMHA, CHAMBA, BASA, West Pubnico Health Club, BMHS Sr. Girls Basketball, etc..

🚀Cheers to 2024!🚀

❄️Merry Christmas!❄️

APOLLO will be closing for the holidays at the end of next week (Dec 20th) and re-opening on December 30th. We anticipate a bit of a waitlist will develop with our Physiotherapists due to the time off so we ask our current clients and new clients to be patient with us over the next 2-3 weeks. We look forward to helping the community in 2025!

▪We have a waitlist option for those who we cannot schedule on the date or time they prefer. As always, our goal at APOLLO is to deliver timely healthcare to our community.
▪ The three best ways to leave a message while we are off: EMAIL (info@apollobarringtion.ca), WEBSITE (www.apollobarrington.ca), VOICEMAIL (902-575-0303)
▪Our Strong Tides location will have slightly different hours during the Holidays, please check out Courtney's booking hours online @ www.apollobarrington.janeapp.com

DRY NEEDLING 101

WHAT IS DRY NEEDLING (DN)?
A treatment where a fine needle is inserted into a muscle/ trigger point to help with pain relief, promote healing, and increase function.

BENEFITS OF DN:
▪Pain relief: DN can create a central nervous system response to decrease pain signals 🧠
▪Promote healing: DN can improve blood flow to the area to help with healing of affected tissues 🫀
▪Increase range of motion: DN causes a twitch response to then create lengthening of shortened muscles to increase flexibility and mobility 🧘🏼‍♀
▪Increase muscle activation: DN can awaken muscles that are inactive or weak and therefore increase strength and function 🏋🏼‍♀️

YOU MAY BENEFIT FROM DN IF:
▪You have an injury to a certain body part (e.g. muscle strain).
▪You exercise or workout consistently and noticed decreased mobility or pain with certain movements.
▪You notice weakness or trouble with activating a certain muscle group.
▪You have chronic or acute pain.

🚀DN is offered by Courtney at both locations, Yarmouth (STCF) and Barrington, and by Scott in Barrington.

🚀FIRST RESPONDER COURSE FOR SPORT AND HEALTH PROFESSIONALS🚀

Kaylie, Courtney, and Scott recently attended a three day First Responders course in Bedford with special focus on sport-related emergency care. A few things covered on course were dealing with head injuries and bleeds on-site, training on how to use oxygen and AEDs, and proper use of spinal boards for transfer.

We look forward to covering sporting events in the future with confidence thanks to the skills taught by Christian Seguin and Sport Physio Canada.

CONGRATS KAYLIE!🥳
Kaylie recently completed her residency program through the NS College of Physiotherapists. She is OFFICIALLY a registered Physiotherapist after many years of schooling, exams, placements, and residency!

A bit belated but this one is worth the shout out! During her graduation ceremony in May, Kaylie was awarded two prizes:
1) Jan Elizabeth Leonard Prize- given to the graduating student who has a high academic standing, has exhibited outstanding skills during clinical placement, and has been chosen but the Awards Committee as someone who is hardworking and passionate.
2) Hazel Lloyd Memorial Prize- given to the student who achieved the highest academic standing in the Integrated Practice physiotherapy courses.

Kaylie made a big impact on the Dalhousie Physiotherapy program and she is doing the same at APOLLO. We are lucky to have Kaylie on the APOLLO team!

Call today to book in with Kaylie for all your physiotherapy needs!
