How is your summer going?!

I am off the first and last week of August to enjoy some much needed family time. We went to Saysutshun Island and it has to be one of my favourite places ever!

In September when we find ourselves getting back to the 'regular' programming I am excited to announce that I will be available MONDAY TO FRIDAY at Woodgrove Pines Wellness Clinic! The exact times are still being worked out but that gives you zero excuse to come in and see me!

(The end of the year is a great time to use those remaining health benefit plans btw!)

With my extended hours at Woodgrove this leaves me with less time to do home visits on Gabriola Island, but don't worry if you are an existing client as I will always have time for you! As for new clients please reach out and I will do my best to get you in!

I am currently working on a secret plan to extend my services on Gabriola, but don't worry Nanaimo I am not planning to leave you!

Enjoy the rest of summer!

Mobility aids are cool!

They can improve balance and stability, reduce falls, increase endurance, and most importantly allow people to engage with the world at large.
