Welcome our newest addition to the @361clinic family! Our 2nd RMT!

/0 Comments/in /by

We would like to welcome Predrag Drzaljevic (referred to as “Pred” for short) as our newest Registered Massage Therapist [RMT] @361clinic! He will initially be working on Tuesdays and every other Saturdays to start with, as of March 3rd.

Pred graduated from the University College Birmingham (in the UK) with a Foundation Degree of Science in Sports Therapy in 2015. He has experience working as a Personal Trainer and Sports Therapist treating a vast array of clients, ranging from professional athletes to weekend warriors. In 2017, he graduated from the RMT program at the Canadian College of Massage and Hydrotherapy. He has since worked in chiropractic & physiotherapy clinics, in hospitals, corporate settings as well as sporting events.

Currently, Pred is involved in treating patients with acute, chronic and autoimmune conditions, as well as post-operative care. The focus of his practice is preventative care, rehabilitation, education and empowering clients to take charge of their health, wellness and quality of life!

Pred balances life as a RMT with enjoying time with his wife and 2 kids (10 years old and 2 months old).

Pred’s first day will be on Tuesday, March 3rd! If you would like to book in for a massage, feel free to contact us: www.361clinic.com/contact/

We are happy to see our @361clinic familia grow to help us continue to provide the ONE degree of difference!

Not enough time in the day to stretch?

/0 Comments/in /by

Have you ever been given exercises to help deal with an injury or prevent one from happening? The real question is, do you take the time to do those exercises? Do you feel like there’s not time in the day to do them?

One of our patients shared a photo of herself stretching while waiting for her flight at the airport. This was a nice reminder that we wanted to share with everyone, that you too can find a few minutes here and there to implement some movement in your day!

Here are some examples of times/places in your day that you may have not considered as a great place to stretch & move:

*waiting in line at the grocery store

*while enjoying a nice hot shower

*waiting for the bus/TTC

*waiting for your flight and/or if you’re in transit at the airport

*sitting in a meeting or in the classroom

Where are you squeezing in your movement during your day?

MOTION is LOTION!

How often do you SMILE?

/0 Comments/in /by

Do you need to practice smiling more often? One of Dr. Lopes’ classmates, Dr. Adam Bletsoe created a guided meditation entitled “Smile Practice [with music]”.

“Embody the naturally creative and healing energy of an authentic smile. From whatever state you may be in we can use a deep remembering of the inborn sense of contentment and peace to create that in our lives right now. Grow and nurture that sense in every cell, tissue and organ of the body. Take it with you into your day to help you summit the situations and circumstances before you.”

Enjoy the benefits of SMILING!

We hope this brings a SMILE to your face!

What brings you JOY & HAPPINESS during the holiday season?

/0 Comments/in /by
 As we kick off this holiday season @361clinic, we wonder what bring you joy & happiness during this season?
*Ice skating *Volunteering to help others in need. *Celebrating the deeper meaning of the holiday. *Taking a nap. *Smiling.
*Cracking a joke. *Getting a massage. *Playing in the snow.
@361clinic we enjoy having hearing the wood crackling, seeing the fire burning, along with holiday tunes in the background with our handy “fireplace”.🔥🔥🔥
They don’t necessarily have to be holiday-related, but they are things that “… help you let go of stress, nourish yourself, and bring out your best, so you can be a shining light during the holidays instead of a wretched wreck.”

.
Try to make a commitment to engage in one of those activities that bring you joy & happiness each day of the holiday season till January 1st.

We’re not sure if you realized that we have just 8 weeks left in 2019. How crazy is that!?!? What’s even crazier is that we only have 7 more days left between now and the end of December that have massage therapy spots left.
 
Treat your body well with chiropractic, massage therapy and/or acupuncture.
 
Spots are booking up FAST! Please plan ahead and help your body feel it’s best to end of the year with a bang!
