🌟 What is Pelvic Floor Muscle Training? 🌟

Pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) isn’t just about strength — it’s also about coordination and relaxation. These muscles form a supportive hammock at the base of your pelvis, helping with bladder and bowel control, core stability, and sexual function.

💡 Learning to activate, relax, and coordinate these muscles is key to:

✅ Managing incontinence
✅ Reducing pelvic pain
✅ Improving core function
✅ Recovering after childbirth or surgery

A balanced pelvic floor is a healthy one! 🧘‍♀️💪

Ask us how to get started - call 902-881-2223 or e-mail admin@acadianshores.ca to book today!

📝 Did you know meal planning can help reduce stress, save money, and improve nutrition? 💡

By planning ahead, you’re more likely to include balanced meals, waste less food, and avoid those last-minute “what’s for supper?” struggles.

👉 My Friday food tip for you… try planning just 2–3 dinners for the week to start, it makes healthy eating feel a lot easier & less stressful!

AND, keep it simple. Don’t over complicate it. Use your favourite cookbooks for inspiration 🍎

‼️ Did you know the client has the choice of what clinic they access services?

Have you been injured in a motor vehicle accident (MVA) or are on long-term disability (LTD)? If so, keep in mind YOU get to decide where YOU complete YOUR rehab, not the insurance company!

More and more often we hear clients tell us they were told to travel out of town for rehab to a clinic they are unfamiliar with. Too often, the client is made to feel the choice is not theirs.

Apollo can easily work with your insurance claims representative to get approval for the rehabilitation that is required following a MVA or for a LTD claim.

It is YOUR health.
YOU decide.

Call us today to start your MVA/ LTD rehab, or to inquire about switching from an out-of-town clinic your insurance company currently has you attending!

Did you know that our physiotherapists can help with gait training for those with Parkinson’s or Parkinson’s-like conditions?

Parkinson’s often causes characteristic walking issues, such as: shuffling steps, freezing of gait (especially when turning or initiating movement), reduced arm swing, stooped posture, decreased stride length and difficulty turning or changing direction.

These symptoms increase fall risk and reduce mobility. Physiotherapists can help with:

🏃‍♂️ Cueing strategies
🧠 Motor relearning & neuroplasticity
🏋️ Strengthening & postural exercises
🔁 Freezing of gait (FOG) management
🧍‍♂️ Balance & fall prevention

Call us at 902-881-2223 or e-mail admin@acadianshores.ca to book your assessment!
