Sedation Dentistry

Many people are fearful of dental treatment. This apprehension and anxiety causes them to avoid and postpone regular dental care until their oral health deteriorates. Sedation dentistry, also known as “relaxation dentistry,” offers an opportunity to experience your dental treatment without pain or anxiety. Dr. Robert Wolanski and his sedation dentistry team can provide the highest quality care in a safe and relaxing environment to meet all your dental needs. Following a comprehensive physical assessment and radiographic evaluation, Dr. Wolanski will custom design a sedation protocol of medications that will work best for you.

Consent for Deeper Connection

For many of us, consent has been about saying no, an ignored no, or it has not been discussed at all. It might have felt fuzzy or not quite right in our body. Or maybe a ‘heck yes’ in our toes. For most of us it is an incomplete conversation. Consent is an embodied experience that can empower our relationship with self and with others; awaken our intimate life; allow us to take with full abandon, and to surrender completely. When we access our yes, no, maybe, slow down, and pause, practising over and over again, in a safe enough space. This is the work we do together.

Caring for Hearing Devices

Taking good care of your hearing aids can significantly prolong their life. *Make sure your hands are clean and dry before handling your hearing aids. *Clean them regularly using your hearing aid cleaning kit. *Remove hearing aids before showering, bathing, or swimming and store in a dry location away from condensation. *Remove them before applying perfume or hair spray. *Store them in their case or drying cup away from heat sources and direct sunlight. *If you won’t be using your hearing aids for an extended period, remove the batteries and store them separately. *Use a hearing aid expert if you need repairs.

3D Healing for Trauma

When a traumatic event happens, emotional information is created and then stored in two places – as a memory in our brain and as an emotion/feeling in the body! Stored and unprocessed emotional trauma is the root cause of many health issues as proven in numerous scientific clinical research studies around the world. The energetic stored negative emotion can be easily removed without pain through the use of a new 3D-Healing application based on Quantum Hypnotherapy. If you experienced a traumatic event, seek help. PTSD can be resolved so that life can continue to be in a happy place.

Chiropractic Care for All Your Joints

Increasing, the body’s capacity to adapt and function normally is the ultimate goal of chiropractic. Strength, stability and mobility exercises help support this goal and to support the chiropractic adjustments so you can continue to live life on your terms.

Falls are a real concern for older adults. The good news is that most falls are preventable. Seniors can lower their risks by changing risky behaviour, proactively managing their health, and safety proofing their homes. Talk to your primary care provider about a fall-risk evaluation. Ask yourself, if I were to fall tonight, how would I get help if I couldn’t reach the phone? A medical alert service ensures that you can access help 24/7 at the push of a button. Some services also offer automatic fall detection. It’s never too early to protect yourself before a fall. Take these precautions today to live more independently and confidently.

Enjoy Your Pumpkin Treats

It isn’t all bad news when it comes to your favourite pumpkin fall treats. While drinks and pies contain sugar, pumpkin itself can be good for your teeth! They contain magnesium, which works with calcium to build strong tooth enamel and prevent cavities. Pumpkins are packed with fiber helping to scrub your teeth and contributes to saliva production. Like to spice it up? The cinnamon used to create the fall flavour contains antioxidants that can help boost your immune system, as well as anti-inflammatory properties that can help sooth irritated gums. So, enjoy, in moderation, and rinse with water afterwards.

Health Benefits of Frequencies

To improve your health and sense of well-being, raise your frequency. Every cell in your body resonates at its own specific frequency. When you become overburdened with stress and toxins, your cellular frequencies weaken and resonate at a lower, dysfunctional frequency. Rooted in ancient medicine and now embraced by modern science, the frequencies of sound, light and colour are proven to have therapeutic benefits for many issues ranging from stress and chronic pain, to emotional trauma, depression and anxiety. Start simply by setting aside quiet music time to de-stress and detox and begin to raise your frequency to a new level of wellness.

Plan for the Future

Planning is important. We plan for things such as children, home purchases and funerals. As we age, we may require assistance with daily activities of living or something happens that leaves us unable to perform these activities. At this time, care might be the next step to maintaining independence. Planning ahead can help avoid the stress and anxiety of finding help when you need it the most. Things to consider: Do you want to stay in your own home? Do you have family who can assist in caring for you? Is your home accessible if your mobility decreases? We can help.
