Welcome to the team Dr. Michaela McClure, Chiropractor!

A bit about her:

I have been a practicing Chiropractor for 15 years and am passionate about getting to the root cause of your complaints and guiding you to take a preventative approach to your health so you can achieve your personal best.

In each treatment, I will do a full body assessment and use appropriate techniques such as spinal manipulation, joint mobilization, soft tissue release, rehabilitative exercise and breathwork to help restore your body’s proper function.

I have recently added Breathwork to my practice as an effective tool to calm the nervous system, reduce inflammation, connect to your emotions, move energy and learn to trust your body again.

More about breathwork:
Breathwork is an incredible personal healing modality! You are unconsciously aware of your breath every minute of every day. The true power lies in becoming consciously aware of how you breathe. Breathing with intention will change your life!

BREATHWORK has been described as an active form of meditation. For anyone who has trouble with meditation, Breathwork is a great solution because you can actively focus on your breath and in doing so, can alter your state of consciousness.

Top 3 Benefits of Breathwork!

Calm the nervous system and find more inner peace.

Move stuck emotions and energy in the body to resolve physical pain.

Connect to your intuition and inner knowing that you have inside.

Over the course of my career, I have developed special interests and done further training for:

Postural Analysis/Correction

Nervous System Function

Running injuries and biomechanics

Pregnancy (including Webster Technique)

Postpartum treatment and rehabilitation

Infants and children.

Michaela is now accepting new clients and looks forward to working with you!!

Hope your scorching Monday is off to a great start. Here is our clinical tip of the week: K-tape!

K-tape during pregnancy can be used to provide an upward lift of the belly, relieving pelvic pressure, pain and improving comfort with standing.

It is a great tool on a hot day when a belly band may be too much!

Hang in there Mamas!

In a world with healthcare providers on every corner, social media posts & recommended by friends, it is tough to know what to look for when choosing one that is right for you.

We believe healthcare should be:

☆ comfortable - a space where you can share and relax
☆ collaborative - a two-sided conversation, taking into account YOUR goals, YOUR preferences, YOUR concerns
☆ one on one - just you and your provider
☆ creative - don't like squats? No problem, there are a million other exercises we can suggest
☆ progressive towards an end goal - want to run? Weekly manual therapy and exercises should be progressed to gradually get you back to your goal
☆ fun! If you are dreading your appointment, maybe it is not a good match!

We are very proud of the quality of chiropractic and physiotherapy care we provide at Sellars and hope to continue to help you and your loved ones for years to come.

Give us a call if you could use a hand in reaching your wellness goals!

With the holidays around the corner, many of us have travel ahead! Here are our tips for managing/avoiding neck pain on those holiday road trips home!

Breakdown below...

1. Using a rolled up towel puts the low back in a supported position. Since the spine is a tower, everything above it will be in an optimal position as well. The towel can also be put under one leg to help with sciatic pain!

2. If we are struggling to see, we often push our chin forwards which is a posture often associated with neck pain and headaches! Make sure to set up the seat height correctly and wear glasses if you need them.

3. Wearing hair in a bun/pony can also cause our neck to be pushed forward, away from the head rest. Hair down for the drive allows us to use the headrest to support the neck

4. While traffic, stress, or snowy drives can cause us to "white knuckle," try to self check in on tension. Do some deep breaths and shoulder rolls if they are creeping up towards the ears.

5. Try to do chin tucks (pulling the chin towards the throat as if making a double chin) throughout the drive to reduce pain and tension! Use the headrest for feedback!

We hope this helps everyone's Christmas travel be more comfortable. Wish we could do something about the 401....

As the holidays hurdle toward us and we wrap up another busy week, I wanted to take a moment to thank all of our incredible patients for breathing life into this clinic! The thing is, if you build it, they won't necessarily come - so we are grateful that you choose us (again, and again, and again!!!). Thank you for every visit, kind word, referral, and for filling our days (literally) and letting us help you feel your best!!! It has been a long journey to get here, but I am so glad we are wrapping up 2023 in this amazing space with our Dream Team of professionals!!! So thank YOU for helping this operation continue!!!

(Bonus points if you share this to your story to help spread the word!!!)

-Dr. Katie

Today marks the 10 year anniversary of Sellars Chiropractic & Wellness Centre!!! It's pretty wild to think of all that has unfolded over the past decade, and the fact that we still have a few OG's who have been with us since Day 1! This one kind of snuck up on me, so I guess I'll just have an excuse to celebrate this weekend!

FALSE.

Planking, running, and weight lifting are all safe to do during pregnancy as long as you are not symptomatic and are able to adequately control pressure in the abdomen.

If you feel stuck during pregnancy and don't know what exercise to do or how much to push yourself, contact us for an appointment!

You are not limited to walking and yoga (unless that is all you love to do!). Pregnancy presents a huge challenge for the pelvis, low back, and core. Training supporting musculature can help support you and make you more comfortable throughout your pregnancy. Even if you are 8 months pregnant, it is not too late to start!
