Happy New Year! With tax season just around the corner, it’s important to consider whether you are eligible for the disability credit. If you have had a prolonged disability due to a hip or knee condition or other medical conditions such as copd, diabetes, neuropathy, etc, that cause restrictions in walking or dressing, you may qualify for a $2,500 yearly credit, as well as a $25,000 Lump Sum Refund. We have assisted thousands of Canadians to get this credit and can help you get the money you deserve.

Early Osteoporosis Detection
An EchoLight REMS scan is a quick, non-invasive way to assess bone health and detect early signs of osteoporosis. Unlike traditional bone density tests, REMS (Radiofrequency Echographic Multi-Spectrometry) technology uses ultrasound instead of radiation, making it safer and accessible for repeated use. The scan provides highly accurate measurements of bone density and quality at key skeletal sites like the spine and hip, helping healthcare providers better assess fracture risk and monitor bone changes over time. Regular REMS scans can empower individuals to take early, proactive steps for stronger bones and overall health, supporting a lifetime of active living.

30-Day Self-Love Selfie Challenge!
In a world of influencers, many of us dislike how we look in photos. A few years ago, I began a journey to change this by posting a daily selfie on Facebook for one month. Through this practice, I cultivated self-love by aligning my inner world with my outer image. True fulfillment doesn’t always require external changes; sometimes, it’s about embracing yourself from within. If this resonates, join the 30-Day Selfie Challenge to Connect to Self-Love this January in a private Facebook group. Let’s discover the power of self-love together!
What You Don’t Hear
When someone has moderate hearing loss they will hear relatively well if you are talking to them face to face in a quiet environment. They will not hear well if you are walking away from them, in a different room, or if noise is present. People with hearing loss may be unaware of the extent of it: that’s where loved ones come in. Family members who have grown frustrated with them not being able to hear are the ones to prompt them to get a hearing test. Encourage them to have their hearing tested, you will be doing them and yourself a big favour in the long run.

Reconnect with Reiki
In today’s fast-paced world, Reiki serves as a valuable tool for reconnecting with oneself. It offers support in revitalizing energy, alleviating daily stress, navigating life transitions, and fostering a spiritual connection. People come to reiki for all sorts of reasons. Some want to revitalise their energy levels, alleviate the stress of daily life, move through burnout, navigate life transitions with more ease or create momentum when they get stuck. Others are drawn to reiki for a spiritual connection, a desire to experience a greater sense of meaning in life. Beyond stress reduction, Reiki complements traditional pain management by potentially alleviating discomfort.
