As we show in class breathing helps regulate our state of being -heart rate, blood pressure, skin temperature, brain waves, and muscle tension as observed under a biofeedback machine that shows quantitative changes. As you breathe focus on slowing down and try to make the exhale longer than the inhale which helps promote parasympathetic which relaxes our whole being. #duncanwellnesscentre #somaticyoga #somaticsduncan #painrelief #registeredmassagetherapy #registeredacupunturist

Today is the beginning of brain injury awareness month!!!! TBI awareness? "What is that?" they say. It's something that I live with... Each and every day. "T" is for traumatic An accident, injury or fall. The way that it effects each brain Is different for us all. "B" is for the brain The computer in our head That guides each step, each thought, each move, And everything we've said. "I" is for the injury No one wishes it to come, For when it does your life is changed, Where will our strength come from? The caregivers go through so much In the watch and wait and see. They each have hopes and doubts and tears, Survival is the key. The survivors come so far each day With progress, there's no doubt, But sometimes it's slow and frustrating And hard to figure out. All TBI's are so different; Our caregivers are so strong. The survivors are so thankful For those who've come along. Our PT's, OT's, counselors, Vision therapists and Speech Push us towards our goals each day So every one we'll reach. Rewiring the brain they say To relearn the things we've lost Striving, praying, working hard No matter what the cost. Our injuries can be invisible Or sometimes they are not, But no matter what you see in me, TBI changes a lot. This battle is so difficult No one wants to fight alone. It's time to stick together, For our journey's never done. Wear your green to show this March That you are very aware That TBI can effect anyone, It isn't often fair. So help me spread the word So awareness will increase, And TBI will be well known And ignorance will cease. Wendy Harron 2/28/2014 #TBIAwareness

A little reminder to help you stay safe

We often get calls wondering if we take new clients. Yes we do because we focus on helping clients recover. As well as the regulated professions of Massage Therapy and Acupuncture we have a wonderful classroom where our health care providers who are also trained as movement educators, teach students practices of self care including Somatics, Somatic Yoga and Tai Chi Gong. By engaging in self care, health improves faster and can easily be maintained with less frequent visits to our practitioners.
