Feel the Love, Not Your Dentures

Valentine’s “month” is in full swing, and nothing gets in the way of feeling romantic quite like ill-fitting dentures. Properly made dentures will be aesthetically pleasing, look true to life, and operate in such a way that your Valentine shouldn’t notice. If you’ve been cleaning your dentures regularly and having annual checkups with your denturist you should have no reason to worry or to lack confidence. If you feel uncomfortable or think your dentures are the wrong size, go see your denturist. Getting your dentures fitted and lined correctly will help them feel more comfortable on the gum line.

Eating a Heart-Healthy Diet

When combined with other healthy habits, eating a heart-healthy diet can help you control blood pressure and blood sugar levels, maintain a healthy weight, and lower cholesterol. Focus on eating fewer trans fats (fried foods), saturated fats (processed foods), high-fat meats, processed meats and cheeses, and anything high in sugar or sodium. Eat more colourful veggies and fruits; high-quality proteins (such as poultry and fatty fish); healthy fats (such as avocados, olive oil, flax seeds, raw nuts, and fish oils); high-fibre pastas, breads, or cereals made from legumes or whole grains; eggs; and dark chocolate (at least 70% cocoa).

Did you know that you can have cardiovascular disease without experiencing any symptoms? Many people are not diagnosed until the condition worsens to the point where they have angina, stroke, or heart failure: that’s why it is important to start taking steps towards a healthy heart and arteries today. A good screening test for early signs of disease is Digital Pulsewave Analysis (DPA). This Health Canada-approved, non-invasive method will show you how your cardiovascular system is working. This information can then be used to devise a specific program to improve your cardiovascular health before symptoms occur. Remember, what you don’t know CAN hurt you!

Acupuncture for Neck Pain

Neck pain can be the result of joint wear from degenerative conditions like arthritis, nerve irritation from bone spurs or herniated discs, soft tissue strain from injuries such as whiplash, or myofascial pain syndrome referred pain. Along with options like heat and ice application, pain medication, physical therapy and stretching, etc., acupuncture can be an effective way to decrease neck pain and stiffness. This may be related to the release of endorphins, the body’s natural pain-killing chemicals, during acupuncture sessions. Acupuncture can also affect the part of the brain that controls mood, further assisting with relaxation and pain management.

The program includes a self-managed training app along with 3 teleconference sessions with a peer trainer (an experienced wheelchair user).
