Concussions, like other sports injuries, should be properly managed and rehabilitated. While complete physical and cognitive rest is the mainstay of concussion care, having a health professional trained in concussion treatment and management guide you through this step-by-step may prove to be invaluable. Recovering from a concussion can be a difficult and frustrating time. Each athlete is affected differently and as such, requires individualized care. Management strategies are used to limit the amount of impairment as well as expedite recovery as much as possible. These strategies may include resting strategies and home instruction, school and/or accommodations, or a return to play protocol. It is important to see a health professional trained in concussion management to guide your child through the recovery process. My son just fell and hit his head in hockey, does he need to sit in a dark room until the concussion symptoms are gone? a: 905-702-7891 Jenni Veneruz Owner/ Registered Physiotherapist 81 Todd Rd, Suite 201, Georgetown Marketplace Mall Advanced Therapy, Trusted Care Q: 71 Mountainview Rd N Georgetown 905-873-8729 www.healthspan.ca Q: : I am struggling to get pregnant and heard thatAcupuncture can help a: Acupuncture has gained much positive attention for itsability to enhance fertility. Whether you are trying to conceive naturally or are using assisted fertility techniques, Acupuncture andTraditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) can help you prepare for conception as well as a healthy pregnancy. The ways in which Acupuncture can enhance fertility include:reducing stress, improving circulation to the ovaries and uterus, and balancing hormones. This is evidenced in medical research that supports the incorporation of Acupuncture into IVF protocols and other assisted reproductive technology techniques. The Ontario government has recently agreed to fund in-vitrofertilitzation for 5,000 families trying to conceive a child. This is good news for IVF candidates, as one round of IVF costs approximately $10,000. An estimated 1 in 5 Canadian couples will experience infertility at some point in their lives.
