Spring, 2013 

Greetings!


Welcome to my newsletter! This fancy little guy is intended to keep you up to date with what's going on around the office. Enjoy!
 
Welcome to spring!
Well. It looks like we finally have a bit of spring! Hallelujah!

With the warmer weather, we are all starting to shed layers here and there - and some of us are starting to think about shedding some winter weight. While that's all well and good, I just want to remind everyone to please APPROACH WITH CAUTION.

If you have behaved more like a hibernating bear this winter than anything else, please do approach your new exercise regime carefully. Make sure you are sufficiently warmed up before exercise (a brisk 5-minute walk is enough), stretch as needed - after - warming up, and don't push yourself harder than you should. Remember, you didn't get out of shape overnight, and you won't get back in shape overnight. The good news is that you will get back in shape, if you work away at it slowly but surely.

Remember - if something hurts, send me an email and ask about it. I might be able to give you some advice over email without you having to come into the office. I've seen just about everything at this point, so odds are I will have a pretty good idea what it is that you are talking about if you can describe it properly to me. :) 

 

IF YOUR INSURANCE CARRIER IS BLUE CROSS, YOUR ORTHOTIC COVERAGE IS CHANGING AS OF MAY 1st.
As of May 1st, Blue Cross will no longer pay for orthotic claims prescribed or dispensed by a chiropractor (or physiotherapist).

What does this mean to you? For those of you who have Blue Cross coverage and already have orthotics, if it's been 12 months since your last pair and you would like me to make you a new pair while you are covered, we need to do it before May 1st, or they won't be covered.

If you have Blue Cross coverage and I haven't made you orthotics but you think it's something you might be interested in, talk to me asap and we can get them done before the deadline.

APRIL ORTHOTIC PROMOTION
Because of the changes to insurance coverage, our orthotic lab, Footmaxx, has lowered their lab fees on orthotics for the month of April. From April 1-30, with the purchase of a pair of orthotics, your second pair of orthotics is only $250 (normally $500).  Give us a call or send us an email if you would like us to give your feet a little TLC.
As always, I'm always accessible by email: sarah@drsarah.ca or you can check out my website www.drsarah.ca for more information.
 
Ciao for now,
 

Dr. Sarah
