New Year - Another Round of Resolutions
Whether or not you’ve slacked or splurged over the holidays, the beginning of a new year is a great time to commit to making changes for better health. Unfortunately, by February, many of us have forgotten about, or given up on these resolutions. If you are serious about making positive lifestyle changes, whether minor or more significant, it’s important to set parameters for yourself that will help make your goals achievable and easier to maintain. Set realistic and attainable goals, and take time to consider a plan for maintaining them. Don’t be discouraged by setbacks – remember, the best time for change is today!

Dennis Talks Acupuncture
Dear friends and clients of Lifewise Health & Wellness,
I am pleased to announce that I will be adding a new treatment modality to my existing massage practice: Contemporary Medical Acupuncture.
During the fall of 2009, I was a student in the Contemporary Acupuncture program at McMaster University in Hamilton. It was a wonderful learning experience: not only did I receive certification in acupuncture, but I gained valuable tools in assessment and anatomy, due to the broad scope of the training.
For those of you unfamiliar with contemporary acupuncture, this evidence-based approach uses fine needles to stimulate peripheral nerves throughout the body for the purpose of relieving pain and other symptoms associated with acute and chronic injuries or dysfunctions. The needles are often stimulated by electricity to increase the therapeutic benefits.
Treatments are generally painless, and needling can be incorporated directly into a massage therapy treatment plan. I am excited to begin using this technique and as always, I am available to answer any questions you may have regarding this or any other technique.
Wishing you a safe and happy 2010!

Better Health for the New Year
January is naturally the time of year when we reflect, make plans and inevitably want to live a healthier lifestyle. Change can be daunting but we are all capable of making changes if we have a reasonable plan.
It is no secret that drinking more water, eating more whole foods, fruits, vegetables, whole grains and getting exercise are the habits we should form to be healthy, just read any TOP 10 list in a health magazine. The key is to make sure that the changes you are making are realistic based on your current lifestyle. You need a plan that works for you.
As a new member of the Lifewise team I would like to invite you to pop in, introduce yourself and talk to me about your health goals in a complimentary 15 minute session.
I am in the office Wednesdays and Fridays from 12-7pm. Call the front office for an appointment. I look forward to meeting you.

Welcome to Lifewise, Nicole Zingel & Sarah Dobec!
I would like to take this opportunity to extend a warm welcome to two new practitioners who have recently joined our clinic: Registered Massage Therapist - Nicole Zingel, and Holistic Nutritionist - Sarah Dobec. Welcome to Lifewise girls, we are excited to have you on the team!
On another note, as some of you already know JoAnn has been offered a teaching position with the Shiatsu School of Canada, and will be leaving Lifewise. Although we are sad to see her go, we know this is a great opportunity for her and we wish her the best success in her new roll. JoAnn, be sure to come visit often!
To all of our patients, we would like to wish you a safe and enjoyable holiday season!
