As the leaves begin to change, sweaters are being pulled out and pumpkin spice is in the air! We welcome the fall season with gratitude and are especially grateful to be sending this fall update email with nothing but good news!
As you know, our mission here at Walking Tree is to provide to our community a patient-centered and integrative approach to health and wellness management. Our team members strive to help you achieve your wellness goals as efficiently as possible and teamwork is the underpinning of success in these accomplishments. In addition to our Osteopathic Manual Therapy, Massage Therapy and Psychotherapy we are proud to introduce Holistic Nutrition and Movement Therapy!
Holistic Nutrition with Deb Agar, RHN
Holistic Nutrition is a natural way of treating physical symptoms in the body through nutrition. It looks at the body as a whole, with each system contributing to your overall health and needing certain building blocks to function at its best. Recognizing your symptoms as functional deficiencies, we will put together a nutritional plan that’s right for your individual body and lifestyle. Following a nutritional plan that is right for your body can help you achieve improved digestion, weight management, hormonal balance, increased energy, mood stabilization, stress reduction, decreased inflammation, restoration in blood-sugar levels, improved recovery time and much more!
If you would like to discuss whether this style of nutritional counselling is right for you, Deb is more than happy to offer free 15 minute consultations with interested patients. Deb structures her treatment plan around each individual so there are many options for you to get the support that you need to live your best life.
** Existing Walking Tree Wellness patients receive 25% off the initial assessment appointment. Make sure to note that you are a Walking Tree patient so that Deb can connect with your practitioners prior to your appointment.
Movement Therapy with Jennie Szwedo
Derived from the fundamental belief that every body is strong, beautiful, capable and resilient Movement Therapy is about learning and re-learning how to use your body the way it’s made to be used. Jennie combines yoga and pilates techniques such as breathing, movement and mindfulness to help her clients feel strong, in control and confident in their bodies. She loves supporting her clients with all their health and wellness goals and has a special interest in pain management, women’s health and the mind-body connection. Jennie lives to see the “aha” moments with her clients as they start to discover everything that they are capable of in their own bodies.
A variety of individual and small group classes are available in online booking including an introductory class focused on breathing, BARE, and movement therapy sessions available in 6 week blocks or individual sessions using movements and exercises from both Pilates and Yoga which will help you feel stronger and more connected to your body. All classes will include a number of modifications and levels of difficulty to help meet you where you are at and support your personal movement goals.
** We, the team, got together and decided that there is not a single person who would not benefit from the Just Breathe Workshop, so we are excited to offer it for FREE to our existing patients for the week of October 25-29. These workshops have full COVID protocols in place and are limited to 3 max per class. Reserve your spot by booking online or give us a call.
We are so excited to welcome Deb and Jennie to the team and are proud to offer you even more options to help you live your best life. Thank you for trusting our team with your health and wellness goals and we look forward to seeing you soon!
Yours in Health,
– Walking Tree Wellness Centre
