Dr. Lopes will be away for a work trip Nov 1-12th, 2022 in Argentina

Dr. Lopes didn’t think she had any travel plans for the rest of 2022 after we did our refresh at the clinic.  But an opportunity came up last minute, and knowing her and her love of travel & adventure, she had to say yes! She will be volunteering as the Sports Chiropractor with @ASSCCDSA Canada’s Men’s Basketball team at the “Pan American Deaf Basketball Qualifications” in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
🏀 The top best teams from the competition will be selected to take part in the 6th World Deaf Basketball Championships 2023, Heraklion Greece and 25th Summer Deaflympics in 2025.
🏀 Dr. Lopes will be leaving the night of Tuesday, November 1st, so she will be working till early afternoon on departure day.
🏀 She will return to @361clinic effective on Mon. Nov 14th.
🏀 After almost 2.5 years during the pandemic where she didn’t have any sports event coverage, she’s more than excited to make up for lost time!
🏀 She’s excited that she gets to use her ASL + Sports Chiro skills + First Responder skills plus continue on with her travels through South America this year!
🏀 There’s exactly 1 month till she heads out, so please plan ahead to get in your chiro appointments!

Find out why Dr. Lopes is on STAND-BY duty between mid-Sept to early October!

As you may know Dr. Lopes has been working towards getting her full Birth & Postpartum Doula certification.  Part of the requirements is supporting at least 3 births.  We just wanted to give you a heads up that she has 2 patients who are due at the end of September, so she will be on stand-by!  If either of the patients go into labour, we will notify you ASAP to let you know that your appointments have to be cancelled, and we will reschedule at your earliest convenience.
➡ WHAT IS A DOULA?  
◾️ A Doula provides physical and emotional support to the pregnant person and their partner during pregnancy, childbirth and the postpartum period.
➡ Did you know that you can have a Doula present as one of your support people, in addition to your Midwife, Obstetrician or Family Physician?
➡ We are all here to work together to make sure that you, your partner and your baby are fully supported throughout pregnancy, labour, birth and the postpartum period.
➡ Dr. Lopes will be still be booking appointments as per usual, but she will be on standby from now till early October, depending when the 2 babies decide to make their appearance.  Fingers crossed they don’t decide to enter the world on the same day!
🥰 Thank you for your patience and understanding! Stay tuned for any updates!

➡His background also includes pharmaceutical studies from the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia, and MassoPhysiotherapy which he attended at the Enrico Fermi Institute of Perugia, graduating in 2013.
➡Enrico has worked as a Massage Therapist since 2017 and his treatment philosophy is to identify and address the root cause of the dysfunction, while relieving symptoms and also working towards long term improvements. He implements functional assessments, manual therapy and modalities such as therapeutic ultrasound where beneficial.
