Bloating or constipation this Thanksgiving? 🦃 Gentle abdominal massage may help you feel more comfortable.

Our manual osteopath Katie Stanley demonstrates the ILU massage, also called the “I Love You” massage. Its strokes follow the path of your large intestine and may help gas and stool move along.

This self-massage technique may ease constipation and related bloating or gas discomfort. 👀 Watch the demonstration and save it to revisit later.

Wait a few hours after a large meal. Use gentle pressure and stop if it hurts. ⚠️ Check with a clinician first if you’re pregnant, have had recent abdominal surgery, or have a bowel condition or abdominal hernia. This video is for general education only. Seek medical advice for ongoing symptoms.

Consider this your sign to give it another shot. 👀

And if you’re not sure where to start or want some guidance building a routine that works for you, a physiotherapist can help.

When your vestibular and visual systems are not working together as well as they should, everyday movement can feel more challenging. Turning your head while walking, looking around a busy store, reading signs while moving, or changing direction quickly may bring on dizziness or unsteadiness.

The exercises demonstrated in this video are examples of gaze stabilization, convergence, and eye-head coordination work that may be used in vestibular rehabilitation. The goal is to gradually help your brain make better use of the information coming from your eyes, inner ear, and body as you move.

A vestibular therapist can assess what may be contributing to your symptoms and choose exercises that match your needs, tolerance, and goals.

⚠️ These exercises may not be appropriate for every cause of dizziness or vertigo. Speak with a vestibular therapist before starting.

Knee pain can have a way of showing up after a longer walk, a workout, or a busy day on your feet.

Topical menthol may provide temporary relief from minor knee pain by creating a cooling sensation that changes how discomfort feels. Learn when menthol may be helpful, how it compares with ice and heat, and how it can support your physiotherapy and knee rehabilitation plan. 👇

You’ve been working hard with your physiotherapist and starting to see real progress for your knee pain. But every time you push a little harder—a longer walk, a busier day at work, a return to your favourite sport or activity—the soreness in your knee creeps back in. Between sessions, you wan...

That pain, tingling, or numbness that seems to travel from your lower back or buttock down your leg? It may be sciatica.

Nerve flossing is one gentle exercise a physiotherapist may use to help manage these nerve-related symptoms for some people.
