Program Announcement 📣

We have another exciting program coming to the clinic! .kinesiology and .courtenayboer will be delivering a peri- / post- menopause program, combining education and exercise for women in mid-life (and older adulthood). ✅

This program’s goal is to help deliver information on menopause and structured, guided exercise programs that people can continue with after the program is done. Dr. Courtenay Boer will be focusing on the education side of things and overall recommendations; Jane Nettleton will be creating individualized workouts for clients that will be progressed over the program so they have a workout to continue with individually at home or in a gym. Hence the name “Lift + Learn” 🏋🏻‍♂️📝

Here is the basic layout for the program:

▶️ 7 week program, run out of Roberts St. clinic (1 week of lectures (x2) and 6 weeks of exercises (x12))

▶️ Wednesday and Sunday evenings 6-7:30pm

▶️ Lectures: April 8th and 12th

▶️ Exercise sessions: April 15th - May 27th

▶️ Small group - max 8 people; women age 35 and over

Is the program for me?!

The program is ideal for anyone in this mid-later life who may be going through perimenopause or menopause, and any one who has been told to lift heavier weights / strength train but is not sure how to do so and wants to build confidence in this.

Sign up by calling either of our offices! ☎️

Wellness Wednesday Post Topic: Exercise + Menopause

The research is clear that regular exercise delivers physical and emotional benefits to women dealing with menopause. Benefits include reduced stress, weight management and helps prevent osteoporosis by building bone and muscle strength to name a few. 😲

How to get started, especially if you haven’t been regularly exercising?? I was also told I need to “lift heavy”!!!

Well, we’re fortunate that we have two great clinicians (.courtenayboer and ) that have been working behind the scenes to get the “Lift + Learn Program” off the ground. This program will focus on the weight training for ladies in perimenopause or menopause. 🙌

Keep it posted here as we announce more information in the coming weeks. ✅

This is a tough one at the moment. All the Olympic action and not enough time of the day to watch it!

So you end up putting the highlights / replays on your iPad while laying in bed (guilty!). Great solution to catch up on your Olympics, but unfortunately, it will affect your sleep.

Keeping technology distractions out of the bedroom and definitely off the bed is a simple technique you can do to make your night sleep a better one.

Keep the Olympic cheering and watching to the TV room! 🇨🇦

What can we say = treating shoulders is fun!

Lots of messages / texts over the weekend about Lindsey Vonn’s decision to pursue another Olympic campaign following a full ACL tear just prior to the games. Lindsey’s decision has brought lots of conversation and attention to alpine skiing, and lots of strong opinions on whether she should have been racing or not. Bringing up the question of whether surgery is required or not for a return to sport?

In short, intensive physiotherapy to manage a fully torn ACL can be a successful pathway for a return to sport. Each case is different based on age, knee stability, sports demands, lifestyle demands and combined injuries. Discussion with your surgeon and rehab team is recommended before making a decision. ✅

Getting over to Vonn’s case - we really can’t comment on it. Vonn has lived with complex knee pathology for years, has undergone extensive rehabilitation and multiple surgical procedures across her career, and has repeatedly demonstrated that she can train and compete with a knee post significant injury. Elite athletes compete with injuries every single day. How often have we heard of a hockey player (insert name) requiring surgery after the Stanley Cup Finals? Championships are routinely won by athletes who would not be cleared to play if the context were different. These athletes are certainly advised by an elite multi-disciplinary medical team and chose to pursue the opportunity in front of them anyways. Many who are unfamiliar with sport don’t know that Vonn already raced that downhill track 2x without her ACL and showed that she can hold top speeds and compete (a 10th and a 3rd in training).

So yes, you can compete without an ACL. Is this the ending that Vonn wanted… guaranteed not. Saying that, let’s show empathy for an amazing athlete that has brought so much to women’s sport, alpine skiing and human perseverance. 😊

Sticking on the topic of shoulders. ✅

The decision to have surgery following shoulder dislocation(s) is recommended based on a variety of factors - including age, frequency of dislocations, extent of structural damage and sports / activities the patient is wanting to get back too. In many cases though surgery is not recommended and conservative management is the primary line of treatment. Although not an easy path we’ve seen many patients has lots of long term success if they commit to this conservative route! 💪
