Give the gift of better health this Father’s Day. Hormone testing is often overlooked but is important for both men and women. In men it’s responsible for mood, energy, and sex drive. Low testosterone levels include tiredness, decreased libido, erectile dysfunction and difficulty conceiving. Medications such as steroids and anticonvulsants can decrease hormone levels but testosterone levels also naturally decrease with age. If you or believe a loved one is experience low testosterone, it is important that a doctor is consulted to seek next steps including testosterone replacement therapy in the form of an injection, skin patch or topical gel.

Summer is here and so is the heat! While many people enjoy the hot weather, it’s important to be proactive and safe when the temperature starts to rise. Some common heat-related issues include: 1) Dehydration – weakness, headache, fainting. Drink more water and electrolytes. 2) Heat stroke – body temp. of 40°C or higher, fast pulse, hot and dry skin. Cool down with shade/AC and water, get medical attention. 3) Heat exhaustion – heavy sweating, weakness, nausea. Cool down with shade/AC and drink plenty of fluids. 4) Heat syncope – fainting caused by high temperatures. Lie down with feet up, drink plenty of water.

We’ve had a long wet winter and spring and maybe you, like many others, have been more sedentary than usual. With summer almost here, it’s time to get outside and soak up that sunshine and build up your resilience and fitness. Is that cranky hip, knee or low back stopping you? Maybe, a whole body assessment is in order to see what can be done, or what you can do, to help your knee or back more? All our past injuries leave imprints and when they are treated collectively, amazing things can happen! Check out this link to an approach to a whole body assessment and treatment and if this suits, give us a call and let’s get you active this summer. https://dianeleephysio.com/services/physiotherapy/the-integrated-systems-model/
