Winter Running Safety Tips ❄️🏃‍♂️

🌟 The countdown is on—less than 16 weeks to the Toronto Marathon! Whether you’re a seasoned runner or gearing up for your first marathon, starting your winter training off safely is key. Here are some tips to keep you moving toward the finish line:

1️⃣ Gear Up for the Cold: Layer up with moisture-wicking and wind-resistant clothing. Don’t forget gloves, a hat, and reflective gear for visibility in low light.

2️⃣ Warm Up Thoroughly: Cold muscles are more prone to injury. Do a dynamic warm-up indoors before heading out into the chilly air.

3️⃣ Mind Your Step: Winter roads and trails can be slippery! Opt for shoes with good traction or add slip-resistant grips to your footwear.

4️⃣ Hydrate: You might not feel as thirsty in colder weather, but hydration is just as important in winter.

5️⃣ Listen to Your Body: If something feels off, don’t ignore it. Take rest days when needed and address aches early.

💡 Want more tailored advice? Book in with a physiotherapist at For Health’s Sake! We can help you with:
✔️ Individualized training plans
✔️ Preventative exercises
✔️ Expert advice to stay injury-free this training block

✨ New Year, Same You— But Growing 🌱 ✨

A new year often comes with big pressure to “fix” everything overnight. But real change takes time, patience, and self-compassion. 💖

This year, let’s focus on progress, not perfection. Whether you’re chasing goals or simply trying to be kinder to yourself, remember: growth is a journey, not a race. 🌟

Take it one step at a time, and celebrate the little wins. You’re doing better than you think. Cheers to a year of working with yourself, not against yourself. 🥂

✨ Big news for our Leslieville clinic! ✨

We are pleased to introduce Olivera, our newest physiotherapist, who shares our commitment to exceptional care and consistency. 🌟

Welcome to the team, Olivera! 🎉
—

“I’ve always been passionate about physical activity and helping others find ways to move that bring them joy. This passion deepened while living out west where I was surrounded by friends and classmates who share a love for nature and movement.

Throughout my life I’ve been fortunate to compete at various levels including representing Canada internationally in Dragon Boat, racing outrigger canoes in the US, and participating in local ice hockey, skiing, and rugby competitions.

These experiences have exposed me to a variety of injuries, teaching me valuable lessons about resilience, recovery, and the benefits of physiotherapy.”

That time of year, when everyone’s talking about goals - getting fit, eating better, creating new habits. But did self-care make it on your list?!

This year, I encourage you to set goals that prioritize YOU:

Book a massage (or another service at FHS!) once a month. Seriously, your body and mind will thank you.

Take time to rest and recover. Schedule it like you would any other important meeting. Fitness goals? Recovery is just as important!

Try something new! Maybe it’s yoga, maybe it’s a new treatment, or even foam rolling—find what feels good for you.

As for me, one of my goals this year is to continue learning new techniques to incorporate into my practice - first on the list, CranioSacral Therapy. And booking myself in for regular self care too!

Looking forward to 2025 and seeing you all back in the clinic this year!

What if two simple services could transform how you feel—mind and body?

Let’s talk about two services that work incredibly well for depression, anxiety, and low energy: Psychotherapy and Naturopathy.

Did you know your gut and brain are in constant communication? 🤯

It’s a major reason why poor gut health can play a role in depression, anxiety, and low energy.

Your gut is home to trillions of bacteria that produce mood-regulating chemicals like serotonin. When your gut is unhappy, your brain might feel it too. 🥦✨

If you’re feeling low, consider a holistic approach: 💡 A Naturopath can help heal your gut with personalized nutrition and supplements. 💡 A Psychotherapist supports your mental health, helping you navigate emotions and thought patterns.

Together, they’re the dream team for your mind and body! 🌟

Take care of yourself inside & out.

🌟 Re-Introducing Ashley, Our Osteopath!

Shout-out to Ashley, our incredible Osteopath, who will soon celebrate 2 amazing years with us at FHS 🎉.

She’s here full-time, splitting her magic between our Downtown and Leslieville clinics, and let us tell you… we’ve been OBSESSED with Osteopathy ever since she joined.

💡 Fun Fact: Ashley is the very first Osteopath to join our FHS family, and wow, she set the bar HIGH! If you haven’t experienced Osteopathy yet, we’re just going to say it—you’re seriously missing out.

Ashley’s energy, expertise, and skills are the reason she’s so booked and busy 😅.

Shoulder pain? Back or neck aches? Headaches? Or maybe you just need a full-body tune-up? Whatever it is, Ashley’s can help you.

Come see why we’re hooked. Trust us—you’ll thank yourself later 🖤💛.

Did you know that building muscle isn’t just about aesthetics? 💪 Here’s why it’s important for everyone:

⬆️ Boosts Metabolism: More muscle means a higher resting metabolic rate, helping you burn more calories even when you’re not working out.

💪 Enhances Strength: Everyday tasks become easier, whether it’s lifting groceries, climbing stairs or playing with your kids!

🦴 Supports Bone Health: Strong muscles help protect your bones and reduce the risk of osteoporosis as you age.

😁 Improves Mood: Strength training releases endorphins, which can help combat stress and anxiety.

🏋️‍♂️ Increases Functional Fitness: Building muscle improves balance and coordination, reducing the risk of falls.

🦠 Protects Against Chronic Disease: Strength training has been shown to lower the risk of chronic conditions like diabetes, and heart disease.

👵 Promotes Longevity: Studies show that greater muscle mass is linked to a longer, healthier life.

Whether you’re in the gym or working out at home, every little bit counts! Not sure where to start? Book a physiotherapy appointment today and let one of our physiotherapists help create a customized plan to suit your goals!
