August is Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) Awareness Month, a time to focus on this genetic disorder affecting motor function. SMA causes progressive muscle weakness and can impact mobility and respiratory function. Early diagnosis and intervention are crucial. Physiotherapy plays a vital role in managing SMA, helping to maintain muscle strength, flexibility, and overall function. Regular physical therapy can improve quality of life and slow disease progression. If you or a loved one is affected by SMA, consult with our specialized physiotherapists for a tailored exercise program. Let’s raise awareness and support those living with SMA this month.

Hearing Loss? Seek Help Now!
Sudden Hearing Loss (SHL) is a condition where hearing loss occurs suddenly or within a few days, often affecting only one ear. Annually, about one in 5,000 adults experience SHL, though the actual number may be higher due to unreported cases. Known medically as sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSHL), this condition is often idiopathic, meaning its cause is usually unknown. SHL is a medical emergency. If you or a loved one experiences sudden hearing loss, seek medical attention immediately. Early treatment improves the chances of recovery. Don’t delay; consult a healthcare provider for a thorough evaluation and timely intervention.

Empower Independence with Valuable Supports
As we celebrate self-care this month, consider the value of in-home care when individuals are no longer able to manage aging conditions and family caregivers realize the need for extra support. Personalized care provides one-on-one attention, ensures dignity, and fosters independence. In-home care allows individuals to remain in familiar surroundings, improving mental well-being and reducing stress. Investing in long term care at home isn’t just about addressing immediate needs, it is a commitment to honoring a loved one’s autonomy and quality of life for the long term. This month, make care for yourself and care for your family member a priority.
DTC With Type 2 Diabetes
Living with Type 2 diabetes presents challenges that impact daily life and finances. The Canada Disability Tax Credit (DTC) provides financial assistance to those with disabilities, including Type 2 diabetes. Proper documentation is crucial for the DTC application. Applicants must have their condition documented by medical professionals, highlighting specific limitations and challenges. This increases the chances of qualifying for financial support. Receiving the DTC can help indi-viduals manage their condition and improve their quality of life. Understanding the requirements and submitting thorough documentation is key to accessing this valuable assistance.
What is Your Mouth Telling You?
The state of your mouth can offer valuable insights into your dental, oral and overall health. Here are some things to watch for: 1) Bleeding when you brush your gums could be a sign of gum disease. 2) Sugar sensitivity usually indicates a cavity, but cold sensitivity might just indicate that a change of toothpaste is needed. Heat sensitivity could be more serious. 3) Bad breath can be caused by poor oral hygiene, but sometimes by a throat infection. A good electric toothbrush, flossing and scraping your tongue all help, and be sure to see your dentist regularly!
