    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. Located in the Beaverton Th

    What is the ketogenic diet, and can I really butter my bacon?

    By now you’ve surely heard of the ketogenic diet. But if you haven’t, it’s the reason people are smushing up avocados and putting it on everything. People have also taken to putting coconut oil on just about everything, including in their coffee to make bulletproof coffee. But I think what has attracted people the most, is the chance to consume a lot of bacon without the feelings of remorse that usually accompany devouring inordinate amounts of bacon. What exactly is the keto

We look forward to another great season of training, racing, and having fun on bikes! Happy tra

    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

    Move like a baby.

    We learn a lot as we develop and grow. Many things that are common sense to us now were not innately understood as babies. Rarely do I eat rocks these days, and for the most part I can use words to express myself as opposed to simply screaming and crying. However, one area where we regress as we age is in our movement patterns. We pick up bad habits, and we lose the ability to move effortlessly and with proper control of our muscles. Developmental kinesiology refers to the de

    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

    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,

    ORHG now offers massage therapy!

    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

    Cycling and knee pain - The role of the foot/ankle complex

    Part 3 of a multipart series on cycling and staying healthy. Last time we talked about cycling and knee pain we discussed how the hip could be the cause of the problem. In this post, we’ll talk about the foot/ankle complex and the role it may play in knee pain. Excessive pronation, or rotation of the foot can cause internal rotation of the tibia, which in turn, alters the way the patella (kneecap) tracks, leading to knee pain and a condition called PFPS (patella femoral pain

    Cycling and knee pain - the hips don't lie

    Part 2 in a multi-part series on cycling and staying healthy. In part 1, we discussed low back pain, and how some simple core endurance exercises could decrease your back pain while cycling, and increase your fun. We will update that post in the future with some other areas to consider when dealing with cycling related back pain. Today, however, we are going to delve in the knee – more specifically, how problems at the hip can impact the knees. Much like the back, the knee is

    Biking a pain in the back?

    Part 1 in a multi-part series on cycling and staying healthy. If you’re like me, you may think the bicycle is one of the most simple, and beautiful of all humanities’ inventions. Sometimes though, our love of cycling leads to pain and discomfort. Non-traumatic injuries (those not sustained in a crash) make up the bulk of injuries experienced by cyclists – particularly recreational cyclists, as we don’t have the luxury of a full complement of bike fitters and coaches at our di
