Disability Tax Credit Eligibility
When people have restrictions, physically or mentally, they may be entitled to apply for a tax credit. There are different ways in which a person can be eligible for the disability tax credit (DTC). In all cases, the impairment must be prolonged. Also, the person must meet one of the following criteria: 1. Is markedly restricted in at least one of the basic activities of daily living. 2. Is significantly restricted in two or more or the basic activities of daily living (can include a vision impairment). 3. Needs life-sustaining therapy. The credit can allow a person $2500 in tax savings each year as well as a $20,000 Lump Sum Refund. Expert help is available in applying for this substantial tax credit.
How Respite Care Can Help
Respite care is a type of assistance that allows you to take a break from caregiving. This break can be for a few hours, a few days or even a week. Respite care can be provided by fellow family members, friends, volunteers, contacts through community groups or by a health care provider. Respite care allows you to recharge, reduce your stress and avoid caregiver burnout. It also enables you to spend time with other family members or take a vacation. A break from the caregiver role means that you can return the focus to ensuring your own health and wellness.
Care for Fall Hair
Sun, wind, sand, great for you – although tough on your hair. Here are some tips to help: 1. Nourish your scalp, use a scrub along with a clay mask to help exfoliate, clay acts like a magnet drawing out impurities. 2. Repair your strands. Apply a repairing serum/mask to mend sun and wind damage. 3. Start taking Vitamin D, your stores will run out quickly once fall arrives. 4. Go see your hairdresser. Get those wind-blown ends trimmed. 5. Scalp massages. Wash often, using the pads of your fingers, using circular motions to get the circulation moving. We hope you had a great summer, wishing you the best in the fall.
Health is a Gift
For most people, HEALTH is our greatest asset. But we often don’t realize how important our health is until it is compromised. The effects of stress, inactivity and trauma accumulate over the years. As a result, subtle spinal changes occur – our body is designed to adapt to these changes, often without symptoms. What starts out as stiffness in the neck or back quickly progresses to severe, debilitating pain, which prevents us from living our lives. What’s the ROOT CAUSE? What can I do about it? These questions need to be answered if you want to deal with this health problem. Your chiropractor can help you. Schedule an examination today and enjoy the benefits of a HEALTHY body!

Staying Active During COVID-19
Activity is important for both your physical and mental well-being. During the fall, make the most of nice weather and consider activities like walking and biking. When you do go inside, non-contact activities such as running, bodyweight workout routines and online fitness classes make it simple to maintain proper social distancing. If you prefer exercising with others, look for smaller fitness studios and classes that allow for the 2-metre spacing between participants. And if you use any equipment in a gym, be sure to thoroughly clean and disinfect it before and after use, even if you are the only one using it.
