What are your plans for the long weekend?
Hopefully you’ll be able to get outside and enjoy some nice weather if the rain holds off!!

Remember that your muscles don’t know the difference between work and play. To them it’s all the same.
So just like you would warm up before a training session at the gym, don’t forget to do a little warm up before you go kayaking or play softball with the kids/grandkids.
It gets your muscles ready to work, and can prevent an injury which could have you sidelined for a bit.

And of course, don’t forget that regular massage therapy treatments can help keep your muscles in game ready condition, whether it’s a game of pickle ball, playing with your dog, or even just mowing the lawn.

Have fun this long weekend, and take care of yourself!!

They say that change happens when you least expect it. This may or may not be true, but one thing is certain, and that is; change is going to happen whether you expect it or not.

Change can be difficult, even painful, but it also comes with the possibility of new opportunities.

But if you aren’t looking for these opportunities, they can pass you right by.

So, I’ve got my head on a swivel, and I’ve got my eyes open, always looking for my next opportunity.

I’m still here and happy at LiveWell, and have no plans to change that, but another complementary side hustle is likely just around the corner!!

See you guys soon.

A little schedule change starting this week.
I will be teaching at the college more than anticipated.
Starting April 3 I will be taking on the science based courses as well as supervising the student clinic.
And with the first years starting in the student this week as well, I will not be at LiveWell on Wednesdays until August or September.
I will also temporarily reduce my Monday hours to allow me to go home and spend some time with Ripley after teaching before treating in the afternoon.
So my hours at LiveWell will be:
Mon - 2:30-7:30
Fri - 12:00-6:00
Sat/Sun - 9:00-3:00.

I started a new job today.
I am now an instructor at Trios college in Kitchener.
I was doing this last year at the Hamilton campus, but had to leave due to health reasons.
But I’m glad to be doing it again.
I will still continue working as a massage therapist at LiveWell though, don’t worry.
And don’t forget, I’m open on Saturday and Sunday!!

This is my favourite thing on earth. My doggie Ripley. She is one of the ways I deal with stress and anxiety.
More and more studies are showing that stress can have a significant impact on the body, and one of the first places we see this is in our muscles.
So it’s important that we each develop some good techniques for dealing with stress.
Some great stress busters would be:








What are your favourite ways to deal with stress?

Here is a flashback from a number of years ago. This took place at a health fair in Kitchener.
Health fairs and trade shows were one of my favourite ways of getting out and engaging with the community and meeting new people. I really enjoyed being an “ambassador” of massage therapy, and helping to educate the public about its place in a persons overall wellness.
Hopefully these type of gatherings will return next year, and I’ll be able to get back out there.
What sort of things are you looking forward to resuming??

Forewarned is forearmed.
And if you would like to come and see me for some forearm action, it’s about to get even easier!
Starting in November I will be offering Sunday appointments.
Not to be confused with sundae appointments.
If you want a sundae, you’re on your own!
Haha.

Starting on November 6 and until the end of the year at least, I will be offering treatments on Sundays between 9:00AM and 3:00PM.

If you’re busy during the week, perhaps a Sunday appointment is precisely what you need. Especially if you have benefits that will expire at the end of the year.

Give me a call at +1 (519) 497-0377, or shoot me an email at michaelcarlsonrmt@gmail.com, or even send me a message on messenger.

I look forward to seeing you.

Take care of yourselves.

Greetings all.
I have been quiet on this page for quite a while, but I am endeavouring to change that.
I will strive to share health and wellness information that I think may be helpful, as well as keep you up to date on any developments on my behalf.

I hope you are all well, and I look forward to reconnecting with you.

I am also starting a professional Instagram page which can be found here:
