Balance is something we often take for granted, until we lose it.

November is Fall Prevention Month, and we’re highlighting simple ways to build better stability and confidence on your feet.

Here are 3 quick drills you can try today:

1️⃣ Single leg balance with nose touches – challenges coordination and postural control.

2️⃣ Clock balance – improves reaction and ankle stability.

3️⃣ Tandem standing or walking – enhances dynamic balance and gait control.

🧍‍♀️Start near a wall or chair for support if needed.

⏱️ Aim for 30 seconds per side and repeat daily.

Better balance doesn’t just prevent falls — it supports confidence, movement, and independence at every age. 💪

👣 Follow along this month as we share more fall prevention tips and exercises.

If you were my client and you were struggling with foot pain that flares when you walk, run, or stand too long, here are a few things I’d ask you 👇

🦶

1️⃣ Where exactly is the pain?

Heel, arch, ball of the foot, or toes? Each area tells us something different.

2️⃣ Is it worse first thing in the morning or after activity?

This helps us figure out if it’s more about tightness, inflammation, or movement mechanics.

3️⃣ What kind of shoes do you wear, and can your toes move and do their job?

Your feet are meant to move and feel the ground.

4️⃣ Have you had any past injuries to your ankles, knees, or hips?

We always look at the full picture to find the real cause.

5️⃣ What have you tried, what has been helpful, what hasn’t worked for you?

Knowing how you as an individual react to different approaches is helpful in guiding treatment.

✨If you could wave a magic wand, you’d walk, run, and move without pain. Strong, grounded, and supported from the ground up.

That’s what we help you get back to.

Can you spot the subtle signs of oral motor dysfunction?
> mouth breathing
> excessive drooling
> frequent bed wetting
> snoring and grinding
> thumb, finger, blanket sucking

But what can we do about it?

At SST we assess the structures and the function, we refer out when needed and work collaboratively to address oral motor dysfunctions.

We collaborate with dentists, RDHs, SLPs, manual therapists, ENTs and pediatricians.

To Our Valued Clients

As we approach the end of the year, we want to take a moment to thank you for your continued trust and support. 💚

Each year, we take time to review our service fees to ensure we can continue offering the high-quality care you expect, while also supporting our incredible team with fair, living wages and keeping up with rising costs of rent, supplies, and operations.

Beginning December 1st, there will be a small adjustment to our service fees. This update allows us to maintain the level of care, time, and attention each session deserves, and helps us continue to grow sustainably as a clinic and as a team.

We’re so grateful to every one of you who chooses Synergy to be part of your health journey. Your support means the world to us.

With gratitude,

💙 The SST Team

If you notice your child breathing through their mouth, don’t panic, but don’t ignore it either. 👃

Here’s what I’d do right away as an OMT:
1️⃣ Check for nasal blockage
2️⃣ Start gentle nasal breathing practice
3️⃣ Work on tongue and oral rest posture

Small daily changes can make a big impact on airway health, sleep, and growth. 🌿

We have a new student in the clinic this fall!

Hi! I’m Maddie. I am a 4th year Human Kinetics student at the University of Guelph. I am hoping to gain some hands-on experience in the field of Athletic Therapy. I just started shadowing with Kristina at the clinic and have already learnt so much! Some fun facts about me: I grew up playing competitive soccer, I am a huge sports fan and I am type 1 diabetic:)

Meet AUSTIN, our newest Certified Athletic Therapist.

- - -

I was born and raised in Brantford ON. Throughout my life, I have played many sports, including Hockey, Lacrosse, Soccer, Taekwondo, jiu jitsu, Kickboxing, Football, and Rugby. I was the most successful and accomplished in Football and Rugby. In high school, we won the Ontario championships for Rugby 2 times and toured the UK playing teams in Wales, Scotland, and England.

I have inherited some of the worst professional teams to root for. Hockey I cheer for the Leafs, and CFL I cheer for the Tiger Cats.

Beyond sports, I love the outdoors and exploring new things. I spontaneously decided to move to the Yukon for a summer with my Aunt to work and explore their mountains and backcountry. I’ll never turn down an opportunity to try something new, even if I embarrass myself doing it. I’ll golf with friends as I struggle to hit the ball or get on stage with the guys to sing frozen as we realize its a lot harder than we thought…

This year is a big year for personal and professional development. I am focused on building my name, profession, and reinvesting myself in Ontario with friends and the community. I plan to do some portaging, hiking to some waterfalls like the Devil Punchbowl, and volunteering around Guelph. I am really excited to meet new people, build new connections, and start something amazing here.
