Hydrafacial is an intensive multi-step treatment that deeply cleanses, exfoliates, extracts and resurfaces the skin; while simultaneously infusing potent nutrients, antioxidants, hyaluronic acid and peptides to the deep layers of the dermis. The treatment is further enhanced by the addition of Lymphatic Drainage and LightStim LED light therapy. Hydrafacial normalizes healthy skin structure and function and is fully customizable to treat a number of skin health concerns including fine lines and wrinkles; oily and congested skin; dull, dry skin; pigment; acne and laxity. The results are immediate with no downtime and leave the skin deeply hydrated, firm, glowing and more youthful.

Your dentist can help diagnose and treat common dental problems in kids, including: Tooth Decay – can lead to sensitivity, pain, and gum issues. Keep track of when and how well your child brushes. Gingivitis – is a precursor to gum disease. Speak to your dentist if your child’s gums bleed when brushing and flossing. Thumb Sucking – if long-term, can cause an open bite and problems with eating and talking. Broken/Chipped Teeth – ensure your child wears a mouth guard when playing sports and seek treatment for broken/chipped teeth. Orthodontic Issues – your dentist may refer you to an orthodontist for these issues.

Osteoporosis, a disease that renders bones porous and frail, causes over 30,000 hip fractures annually in Canada. While most people associate osteoporosis with women, around 25% of these fractures occur in men. To help prevent osteoporosis, make sure to exercise regularly, suited to your health. This will encourage bone cell renewal. If you are not getting enough nutrients from your food, you may require a dietary supplement such as calcium and vitamin D, which are crucial for bone health. Speak to your Courteney Pharmacy Pharmacist for more information.

Do you suffer from a nagging injury like tennis elbow, achilles tendonitis, frozen shoulder, rotator cuff injuries or plantar fasciitis? Shockwave therapy is one of the best research-backed treatments for chronic musculoskeletal conditions that have not healed properly. It involves the application of acoustic sound waves to kick-start healing, control pain, and restore mobility. Often patients will feel relief after their first treatment and can expect more significant and lasting changes within 3-5 applications. Shockwave Therapy coupled with Class IV Laser Therapy is evidence based and the gold standard in tendon healing.
