It's with equal parts joy and sorrow that we share the news that our beloved office manager, Kathy, is retiring today!⁣
⁣
Kathy has been with us for over eight years, and she's completely transformed WSM RIM Park in many ways. If we have a question about anything or anyone, Kathy is always the go-to person to ask. It is thanks to her efforts (openly and in the background) that kept things running smoothly. Her hard work, commitment and drive will be impossible to replace.⁣
⁣
Kathy and her husband Bob are heading north to make their dream of living by the water a reality. ⁣
⁣
Thank you Kathy for your incredible contributions to the team. We already miss you but wish you only the best as you begin this new chapter of your life!⁣

As we wrap up National Physiotherapy Month, our final discussion will be on 𝐣𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐭 𝐫𝐞𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐜𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭. ⁣
⁣
Physiotherapy can be very beneficial for those who are waiting for, undergoing, or recovering from orthopaedic surgeries. This may be through pre-operative, inpatient, or post-operative education and rehabilitation services. Studies show that physiotherapy interventions can result in improved health outcomes, shorter hospital stays and earlier/faster recovery times. ⁣
⁣
Physiotherapy helps delay the need for joint replacement and can help you prepare/recover from joint replacement surgeries.⁣

As we continue our discussion about the Role of Physiotherapy in Healthy Aging, we reach the topic of aging itself. Aging is a normal part of life and comes with a decline of certain physical capabilities. ⁣
⁣
What does Physiotherapy have to offer? (CPA, 2021)⁣
✅Screening and interventions to address frailty, including physiotherapy programs to improve mobility, increase physical activity, and prevent falls⁣
✅Home-based exercise programs can help prevent falls and frailty and improve physical activity, balance, mobility, and muscle strength in seniors⁣
✅Early physiotherapy intervention following stroke improves long-term functional recovery, decreases the number of subsequent events, and improves rates of independent living ⁣
✅Physical activity can help improve cognitive function in those suffering from dementia⁣
⁣
The goal of Physiotherapy is to improve your personal sense of wellbeing and help you live independently longer. Your Physiotherapist works with you to develop and works towards your personal goals 🏌🏼‍♂️🚴🏽‍♀️⁣

Our next topic on the role of Physiotherapy in Healthy Aging will focus on pain.⁣
⁣
Pain management is one of the top reasons people seek out physiotherapy. For some individuals, this pain is temporary and caused by a specific injury/event. For others, the pain is much more complex and persists for longer than 3 months. ⁣
⁣
There is strong evidence that chronic pain is most effectively managed using non-pharmacological strategies, including activity, exercise and mental health supports. ⁣
⁣
A physiotherapist can provide you with the resources, knowledge and education to self-manage your pain. According to the Canadian Physiotherapy Association (2021):⁣
• Physiotherapy reduces reliance on opioids to manage pain.⁣
• Physiotherapy exercise rehabilitation can reduce pain and disability, as well as improve quality of life for patients with musculoskeletal pain.⁣
• Physiotherapy effectively treats and reduces lower back pain, osteoarthritis, and other musculoskeletal pain conditions.⁣
• Timely and appropriate access to physiotherapy can reduce reliance on publicly funded health care services and medications to manage pain.⁣
⁣
It is important to recognize the complexity of chronic pain and the need for a multifactorial, interdisciplinary intervention. For more information, check out the CPA’s website at https://physiotherapy.ca/npm-2021-physiotherapy-helps-prevent-manage-pain ⁣
