St. George Physiotherapy

08/17/2023

It is not without some sadness that we inform you that St. George Physiotherapy will be closing its doors at the end of September. Unfortunately, staffing issues have spread us too thin at both clinics and made this second location unsustainable. We will continue to offer you the same standard of care that you have come to expect, but at our Brantford location after September 27. Thank you to all of you that have supported us this past year and to the St George community as a whole. We look forward to an ongoing relationship with you in Brantford.

Sometimes your sleep position 💤 can cause nerve compression which happens when something (in this case, the position of your arms) puts extra pressure on a nerve.

If your hand is numb, it’s likely due to compression of your ulnar, radial, or median nerves. Each of these nerves starts at your neck. They run down your arms and through your hands.

If you have symptoms of numbness in your hands alongside any other unusual symptoms, like numbness that doesn’t go away, neck pain or limited mobility then physiotherapy might be right for you!

“Later is a dangerous word”

••••

I get that life can be busy.

A day here, a day there.

In the short term, missing fitness doesn't seem to make a difference.

It's hard to notice until one day, it becomes obvious.

••••

Start small. Just move.

Life's busy. Finding time is hard.

But if you don't make time for exercise now, you'll be forced to make time for disease later.
