“I couldn’t even lift my arm without pain.”

Patient X came into the clinic with persistent right elbow pain that had been bothering her for months. She had been diagnosed with Tennis elbow, also known as Lateral epicondylitis. Simple activities like gripping, typing, or lifting groceries had become frustrating and painful. Has seen massage with no relief.

After starting acupuncture treatments, patient X began noticing gradual improvements. The tightness in her forearm started to ease, and the sharp pain around her elbow became less intense.

After several acupuncture sessions, and strengthening exercise she regained full strength and was able to return to work and recreational activities with no pain or discomfort.

🌿 Acupuncture help reduce inflammation, improve circulation, and relax overworked muscles and tendons—supporting the body’s natural healing process.

If you’re experiencing:
• Pain on the outside of the elbow
• Weak grip strength
• Pain with lifting or repetitive arm movements

You don’t have to push through the pain and you don’t have to manage it alone.

📅 Book an acupuncture consultation and see if this natural approach could help you get back to living comfortably again.

❄️ Chiropractic Winter Prevention Tip ❄️

Keep Your Spine Safe in Cold Weather

Cold temperatures tighten muscles and reduce joint mobility, increasing the risk of strains—especially when shovelling snow or walking on icy surfaces.

Try this winter-safe routine:
✔ Warm up for 3–5 minutes before heading outside (march in place, gentle twists, shoulder rolls).
✔ Use your legs—not your back— when lifting snow.
✔ Take smaller loads to reduce spinal strain.
✔ Keep your core engaged for stability on icy ground.
✔ Stretch afterward to prevent stiffness.

A little prevention goes a long way.
Stay injury-free this winter!

Orthotics Check In: Every 2 Years Matters 👣

Orthotics aren’t a one anddone solution. Your body, activity level, footwear, and biomechanics change over time and your orthotics need to keep up.

Why recheck every 2 years?

Your gait and posture can change

Materials wear down and lose support

Old orthotics may no longer correct the issue

Proper fit helps prevent pain and future injury

📅 Important reminder:
Most extended health plans renew orthotics coverage on January 1. That makes now the perfect time to book your 2 year reassessment and ensure your orthotics are still doing their job.

✅ Stay supported
✅ Maximize your benefits
✅ Keep moving comfortably

If it’s been close to or over two years since your last orthotics, it’s time for a recheck!
