    We're in the news!

    We're excited to be featured in the Brock Citizen! Check out the article below: Life-long Brock Township residents, Dr. Colleen Woodward and Dr. Lee Brotherston, owners of Oak Ridges Health, have opened their second chiropractic and sports injury clinic. Following the successful launch of their Uxbridge location in 2016, the business owners say they knew they wanted to offer the same level of care to residents of Beaverton and the surrounding area.

    An unhealthy fear of healthy movement

    Different people have different phobias. Some are perfectly rational – like the fear of heights, the CRA, and clowns. These are well-founded fears, which help to keep us safe. Some phobias, however, do us a great disservice. Today we’re going to talk about kinesiophobia – the fear of movement. The actual definition of kinesiophobia is, “an excessive, irrational and debilitating fear to carry out a physical movement, due to a feeling of vulnerability to a painful injury or re-

    Hey Beaverton! We're open and accepting patients!

    It’s been a long time coming, but we’re delighted to say that our second clinic is up and running. Having grown up in Beaverton myself, it was a natural choice for our second location. Beaverton and the surrounding area have long needed quality chiropractic care, and we couldn’t be happier to be the ones to bring it there! We know we have something great to offer, and we’re sure you’ll agree too. If you are in pain, have a sports injury, or just want to keep yourself in tip-t

    We are coming to Beaverton!

    That’s right, we are opening a second clinic in the Beaverton Thorah Health Centre. Beaverton has long been in need of high-quality chiropractic care and we couldn’t be more excited to be the ones to fill that void. Beginning in April you’ll be able to schedule an appointment by phone, or online with either Dr. Colleen Woodward, or Dr. Lee Brotherston. Whether you’re suffering from a sports injury, or chronic pain, we’re here to help! We look forward to serving this great com

    Chiropractic is a profession not a treatment.

    You can use the analogy of not all cars are created equal, or not all coffee is great. But it probably makes more sense to compare ourselves to another profession – teachers. Within the teaching profession, you have those who posses that something ‘extra’ that makes them truly amazing teachers. You also have those who teach according to the curriculum, and yet the students don’t come away with the same understanding of the subject matter. After 9 years of post-secondary educa

    Understanding Pain

    What is pain and why does it hurt?! In trying to think of the easiest way to explain this, I thought it best to first learn a bit of neuroanatomy. I’ll try and keep it simple and painless (admit it, that’s funny). You can divide our nervous system into two separate regions: The central nervous system - brain, brain stem, spinal cord; and the peripheral nervous system - all the nerves that leave the spinal cord and innervate everything in our bodies. We also have an enteric ne

    Pillow Talk

    What type of pillow should I use? Patients of ours know that we ask a lot of questions about sleep such as, do you get a good night sleep? Do you wake up throughout the night? Do you have pain in the morning? Are you a side/back/stomach sleep? etc. That’s because sleep is incredibly important to not only how we function throughout the day, but it also plays a huge role in our perception of pain. If you’re in pain, and you’re not getting a good nights sleep, you’re headed into

    What makes us different? Glad you asked!

    Something we get asked a lot is, "I've been to a chiropractor before. What makes you different?" We love this question because it gives us an opportunity to explain what we do and how we can help you. Using feedback from patients, I’ll try and highlight what we think sets us apart. First and foremost, our appointment times are longer. Typically, a treatment takes 30 minutes, sometimes less, sometimes more. This gives us enough time to work on your muscles and joints, but also

    Hurt in a car accident? You're entitled to treatment.

    If you have been hurt in a car accident, here are some things you should know: 1. You are entitled to treatment to help you recover from your injuries. It’s true, if you were injured in a car accident, your automobile insurer will pay to help get you back to being you. 2. Most injuries associated with motor vehicle accidents (MVAs) are classified as minor injuries. Minor injuries include most injuries commonly associated with car accidents such as sprains, strains, whiplash,

    Oak Ridges Health Group is excited to offer massage therapy! It took us a long time to find a registered massage therapist that we felt would complement the clinic and offer something of value to our patients. But the wait is over – Ashley McMillan is the latest and greatest member of the ORHG team. She shares the same passion and commitment to patient care as we do. Whether referencing her skills, knowledge, or personality, the feedback we have received from patients has bee

    When life makes your head hurt

    Posture series: part 1 Humans are remarkably adaptable creatures – our bodies are constantly changing to match the demands placed on them. Maybe the simplest example is when you run you get better at running. You can run further, faster, or both depending on how you train. We are efficiency machines, and anything that is no longer needed gets thrown by the wayside to make room for what we do need - we build tissue where we need it, and get rid of tissue where we don't.
