Overcoming Arthritis

With support, a person with arthritis may maintain daily activities and routines for a long time. Allowing even a small amount of regular, ongoing assistance can make a big difference for those living with osteo or rheumatoid arthritis. Some folks may need assistance with activities such as bathing; dressing; grooming; cleaning; cooking; traveling; or transportation. Others may welcome help to enjoy leisure activities or time with friends and family. Whether provided by family or through paid Care Professionals, some timely support will go a long way to improving quality of life for those with arthritis and other chronic conditions.

Cavity & Dental Disease Prevention

A cavity happens when bacteria in the mouth produces acid that attacks your teeth. Over time, this acid can dissolve away the tooth enamel and cause a hole, or cavity. Unlike some other diseases or injuries, a cavity will not heal by itself, but if the early signs of dental decay are promptly treated before a cavity forms, it can be stopped or even reversed by your dentist and your home care. To prevent dental disease: brush twice a day, floss once a day, eat a balanced diet, limit eating and drinking between meals, and visit your dentist regularly.

Laser Therapy for Osteoarthritis

Osteoarthritis is generally caused by progressive wear and tear on our joints that results in the breakdown of our joint cartilage. When cartilage breaks down, the bones start to grind against each other, creating inflammation in the joint. These changes are what cause you to experience painful symptoms. The degenerative process itself may not be painful, however the resulting inflammation and irritation to surrounding muscles, ligaments, and tendons usually cause you to experience uncomfortable and sometimes debilitating symptoms. Cold laser therapy offers an innovative treatment for a variety of acute and chronic, often painful, conditions like osteoarthritis.

Energize Your Back-to-School Routine

As the new school year begins, it’s important to recalibrate your energy and smoothly transition into a new routine. Incorporate grounding practices like mindfulness and deep breathing to stay centered and reduce stress. Address any emotional challenges or anxieties and consider using Reiki to boost mental and emotional resilience. Enhance focus and clarity for better performance and organization. Strive for balance between school, work, and personal life, emphasizing self-care to prevent burnout. Start the year with positive, uplifting energy to foster optimism and enthusiasm. Remember, a balanced routine promotes overall well-being and success.

Suicide Prevention through CBT

Mental illness—including depression and bipolar disorders—is the leading cause of suicide. People of any age can suffer from mental illness, and many may feel that there is no other way out. But there is hope. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps individuals grappling with suicidal thoughts by recognizing maladaptive thought patterns, reframing problems, and challenging the way we think about them. It also supports long-term solutions by finding alternative coping strategies. At White Dove Counselling and Mediation, we are trained in CBT, and a counselor is standing by to support you in your time of need.

Financial Health: A Pillar of Overall Wellbeing

Just as you prioritize your physical and mental health, it’s vital to focus on your financial wellbeing. FP Canada found in it’s most recent survey that 44% of Canadians say money is their biggest source of stress. Financial stress can lead to anxiety, sleeplessness, and even physical health issues. By planning, budgeting, and investing wisely, you’re not just securing your future—you’re also reducing stress, which contributes to better overall health. Think of financial wellness as another pillar of your holistic health strategy. A sound financial plan ensures you can enjoy life’s pleasures, and maintain peace of mind, ultimately enhancing your overall quality of life.
