𝐃𝐈𝐃 𝐘𝐎𝐔 𝐊𝐍𝐎𝐖? 8 November is World Radiography Day!

📸 In 1895, Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen discovered X-rays, completely by accident, and changed the course of medicine forever!

Today, radiography helps doctors see what the naked eye can’t: from diagnosing broken bones and chest infections to detecting cancers and tracking healing progress. It’s one of the most powerful tools in modern healthcare. 🩻

💚 So today, we celebrate the radiographers and imaging professionals who make early diagnosis and effective treatment possible every single day.

✨ Need an imaging referral or medical guidance? We’re here to help you every step of the way. Call 051 444 1059 for expert advice and compassionate care.

🎨 Creativity isn’t just for painters or poets. It’s how we solve problems, express ourselves, and adapt to life’s challenges.

Neuroscience shows that creativity activates multiple areas of the brain, especially the prefrontal cortex (for planning), temporal lobes (for memory and language), and limbic system (for emotion). It's a full-brain workout!

But 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐬𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐤 𝐟𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐬, 𝐢𝐭 𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐛𝐞 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐧 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐚 𝐬𝐥𝐮𝐦𝐩:

😮‍💨 Feeling mentally “stuck” or uninspired
😔 Struggling with low motivation or energy
😴 Trouble focusing or making decisions
😢 Mood dips or signs of burnout

Your brain might be telling you it’s time to rest, reset, or get support.

✅ At Drs Walsh & De Ridder, we take mental wellness seriously. If you're noticing a decline in your creative thinking or focus, let's explore the underlying causes, from stress and poor sleep to vitamin deficiencies or emotional overload.

📞 Call 051 444 1059 to book a check-in and refresh your mental energy.

☀️ The link between bones & Vitamin D

- Vitamin D helps your body absorb calcium; a key ingredient for strong bones.
- Many people are deficient, especially during colder months with less sunlight.
- Low vitamin D weakens bones, increasing the risk of osteoporosis.
