Summer is here - stay cool
It has been super hot outside this summer! My grass is already brown and the sunburn's continue. Make sure you hydrate and reapply sunscreen to avoid being a summer disaster!

Hydration 101
Why Hydrate?: It's important because your brain needs it! As does the rest of your body such as your muscles, joints and organs, not to mention digestion and vascular systems.
How to Hydrate: Carry a bottle around with you - its easier if it's in your hand!
Take a sip every time you look at your phone/device. Think about how much water that will add up to!
When is enough: Look at your urine - pee check - it should be clear to light yellow. Anything darker and you are dehydrated. If your urine is green, you either had too much asparagus or you need to follow up with your doc... yikes!

A baseline test is a battery of tests that measures every area of brain function that could potentially become affected following a concussion. It is a “baseline” because it is done BEFORE the athlete gets injured.
OPEN BASELINE DATES
July 25th Billed as Chiropractic with Liv Chiarelli
August 23rd Billed as Physiotherapy with Jordan Katz
September 14th Billed as Physiotherapy with Nejin Chacko
Baseline testing can be done at anytime; during the open dates we offer the same discount for individuals as we would for a team.
