Au cœur du bien-être : Une histoire inspirante
Solutions-Cliniques

At the heart of well-being: An inspiring story

Tommy Paré-Thibault

In the heart of the picturesque village of Saint-Sauveur-des-Monts, nestled in the Laurentians, there was a charming log house where Émilie, a passionate massage therapist, resided. Her expert hands and kind soul relieved the aches and tensions of her clients, providing them with deep and lasting well-being. Émilie had not inherited her skills from her grandmother but had acquired her massage techniques at a recognized massage school in Quebec. Fascinated by the art of massage and its benefits on the human body, she had rigorously studied various techniques, including biomechanical massage, which aimed to relieve muscle and joint pain by rebalancing the body. True to her convictions, Émilie selected her products with the utmost care. She favored long-established Quebec suppliers known for their expertise and commitment to quality. Each essential oil, balm, and cream was chosen with care for its unique properties and recognized benefits. Among her favorite suppliers was a Quebec family business that shared her philosophy of natural well-being. She particularly appreciated their pharmaceutical-grade ingredients, pure essential oils, and innovative products, the result of rigorous research and development. Émilie's house was much more than just a place for massage. It was a haven of peace where everyone could recharge and reconnect with their body. Émilie took the time to talk with her clients, understand their needs, and offer them a personalized massage tailored to their ailments and aspirations. One day, a new client crossed her threshold. It was Léa, a dynamic and stressed young woman, overwhelmed by a demanding job and crushing family responsibilities. Her body was tense, her muscles knotted, and her mind in constant turmoil. Émilie welcomed Léa with warmth and kindness and offered her a biomechanical massage with lavender and eucalyptus essential oils. Her expert hands glided over Léa's body, releasing tensions, soothing pains, and rebalancing muscles and joints. Gradually, Léa let go, relaxing under Émilie's precise touches. Over the sessions, Léa regained a sense of calm and serenity. Émilie's massage was not just physical relief but also an invitation to reconnect with her body and mind. Léa learned to listen to her physical needs and take care of herself. The story of Émilie and Léa illustrates the transformative power of biomechanical massage and the importance of choosing quality Quebec products for an optimal experience. By partnering with responsible and committed local suppliers, massage therapists like Émilie can offer their clients exceptional care, contributing to their physical and mental well-being while supporting the local economy. The story of Émilie and Léa is just one example among many of the experiences lived by the clients of Clinique Lafontaine. Every day, our passionate and dedicated massage therapists welcome clients struggling with pain, stress, and tension, and offer them personalized massages that help them regain well-being and vitality.

Track your package closely to protect your online purchases

  You're eagerly awaiting your package ordered online, but the reality is that package thefts are on the rise, according to a recent FedEx survey. With 28% of respondents reporting they have experienced package theft from their doorstep in the past two years, it's more crucial than ever to meticulously track your tracking number to ensure the safety of your valuable purchases. A large portion of these customers who were robbed did not closely track their package via the tracking number, leaving the package unsupervised for several hours.   Growing risks of home theft “Stoop hackers” are becoming increasingly bold, with a 4% increase in reported package thefts compared to 2022. This threat becomes particularly concerning during the holiday season, when online shopping increases and risks thefts are intensifying. James Anderson, spokesperson for FedEx Express Canada, points out that this concern is pervasive in consumers' minds, with 70% of those surveyed expressing concern about the theft of their packages left unattended after delivery.   Use tracking for secure delivery A simple, but effective solution to protect your packages is to carefully track your tracking number that you receive by email once the order has been shipped. An update from the carrier is made daily to update the status of the order. This practice allows buyers to stay informed about the location of their package and take steps to prevent theft, including reducing the time the package is on the porch unattended. It's also a good idea to ask the retailer to deliver the items to a more discreet location, such as a back porch or storage box. This simple precaution can make all the difference in preventing theft. You can add this note in the comments during your purchase. If you are uncertain about being present or are often absent during deliveries, adding a signature to the delivery process can be an extra measure of protection. Otherwise, you can also have it delivered to another address where someone can receive the package quickly. By adding an extra layer of protection, video doorbells or surveillance cameras can provide additional peace of mind by monitoring deliveries and deterring package thieves. In conclusion, By meticulously tracking your tracking number and adopting secure delivery practices, you can significantly reduce the risk of package theft. Don't let stoop pirates ruin your online shopping experience. Stay vigilant, use tracking and protect your valuable purchases.

Connaissez-vous les 5 liens historiques entre le massage et Halloween ?
Massage

Do you know the 5 historical links between massage and Halloween?

The history of massage and Halloween seems like a strange combination at first glance. One evokes ancient therapeutic practices aimed at relieving the body and mind, while the other is associated with macabre festivities, frightening disguises and sweets. However, deeper exploration reveals historical and cultural connections between massage and Halloween that may be intriguing. The soothing connection between massage and Halloween anxiety Halloween is traditionally a holiday marked by spooky elements, horror films, ghost stories and haunted house tours. For many people, this atmosphere can cause stress, anxiety and even nightmares. That's where massage comes in. Massage sessions are known for their ability to reduce stress, relax muscles and promote a state of well-being. So, massage can be a welcome breath of fresh air for those looking to unwind after a stressful evening. The origins of Halloween and healing rituals Modern Halloween has its origins in ancient Celtic holidays, particularly Samhain. Samhain, which occurred in late fall, marked the end of the harvest season and the beginning of winter, a time considered the time of spirits and the dead. The Celts believed that the boundary between the world of the living and the dead became thinner during this time, allowing spirits to manifest. Interestingly, the Celts had their own healing practices, some of which involved massage and body manipulation. These rituals were intended to balance the body's vital energy, soothe the mind, and promote healing. Thus, Celtic ancestors may have associated therapeutic massages with celebrations like Samhain to relieve stress and bodily pain, while connecting with the spiritual world. The importance of relaxation during dark times Autumn is a season characterized by shorter days, colder temperatures and a darker atmosphere. So the need to find ways to relax and comfort yourself during this time is greater. Massage, as a calming practice, can be particularly beneficial at this time of year. Massage as a means of recovery after festivities Halloween is also a holiday known for its excesses, especially when it comes to eating sweets. After a night of trick-or-treating and costume parties, many people may feel tired and overworked. Massage can be an ideal way to restore balance, relieve body tension from walking or dancing, and promote better digestion. Halloween Specials in the Massage Industry Many spas and massage practitioners offer Halloween specials to attract clients looking for relaxation during this time. Halloween themed massages add a fun twist to the massage experience. In conclusion, although the association between massage and Halloween may seem strange at first, it is based on historical and cultural connections. Massage has always been a method of healing and relaxation, and its role during Halloween can be to provide a calming respite in a season marked by anxiety and festivities. So, the next time you're planning to celebrate Halloween, don't overlook the opportunity to add a little feel-good factor to your spooky night with a good massage.

How long does an essential oil last?

Did you know that your essential oils can be preserved at least 5 years? Citrus essences are more fragile therefore they are given a shorter lifespan d'about 2 years, and for essential oils obtained from the needles of conifers, such as Scots pine or balsam fir or black spruce, they can be preserved about 3 years. Essential oils contain, among other things, alcohols. It is therefore impossible for bacteria to develop in pure essential oils. They will not become dangerous when used externally, in a bath or when applied topically. However, the quality of an essential oil gradually declines with the oxidation process, therefore the aging process of an oil. Their characteristic odor gradually declines, as do their benefits.   All essential oils expire Since now, essential oils are more and more known to the general public, their clinical applications based on scientific evidence have proven themselves and the different daily or therapeutic applications are multiplying, it is rather rare to see someone one, let alone a wellness professional, throw away essential oils or massage oils because they are no longer good.   For massage oils, the addition of cloves as a natural preservative greatly extends the life of a massage oil since they are composed of more than 15% essential oil and 70 to 90% eugenol. , an antibacterial, antiseptic and antifungal compound. The multiplication of applications in care or in daily life is increasing the use of essential oils. Their 15 milliliter format also limits losses.   There are many factors that affect the shelf life of an essential oil, just like massage oils The quality of the original plant. Conditions of certain batches (sunshine, rain, etc.) meant that the essential oils did not reach Olympic yields in the chromatogram, but minimum yields. This will influence the lifespan, but also the active ingredients. Harvest conditions can influence. Distillation (for essential oils) The traffic jam must follow certain protocols. Handling of the oil by the client, the therapist or even the company which packaged the essential oils. Oxygen: When oils are exposed to air, they gradually oxidize and their volatile components evaporate, as does their odor. This is often due to the fact that the oil bottle remains open during treatment, for example. It is therefore important that the bottles remain tightly closed when essential oils are not in use. The light : When essential oils are stored in sunny places, they deteriorate. This is why essential oils are sold in dark colored bottles, usually smoked glass. The latter prevents UV rays from penetrating the bottle and altering the quality of the oil. Exposure to heat : Due to their flammable nature, essential oils should never be stored near open flames or any source of heat or fire. Being exposed to heat accelerates the deterioration of an oil. Where to keep your essential and massage oils to protect them? We should keep our essential and massage oils in dry, cool and dark places, preferably. Places like the bathroom, near a stove or on a window sill are totally not recommended. Temperature variations cause our essential oils and massage oils to age prematurely by oxidizing them. When you buy your essential oils and massage oils, different formats are offered to you. Buying large formats allows you to save money. Purchasing small formats allows you to better manage your inventories of products that you do not use often. It’s worth stopping there!   How to recognize expired massage oil? The main characteristic of expired vegetable massage oil is that it loses effectiveness with oxidation and that it risk of becoming comedogenic. Oxidation can also cause the texture to vary. The fatty substance protects them from the air and prevents certain microorganisms from breathing and developing. The oil becomes sticky to the touch and often the client has to work extra hard to remove all the oil from their skin after the massage. The rancid smell of expired vegetable oil is very significant and a motivator to stop using it. Moreover, this smell is very recognizable in certain massage clinics whose towels have been encrusted with massage oil for a long time.   To avoid this unpleasant odor in the towels and massage sheets as well as the heavy appearance of the latter, it is important to add to the washing loads, a professional degreaser at the height, combined with laundry soap or precisely the Pro-textile + organic which combines the two functions. Another most important element is the wash water temperature. It should be remembered that washing towels and sheets in cold water promotes the fixation of oil in the fiber of the fabric. The fat therefore accumulates from one wash to the next and makes the fabric heavier. This is why the choice of washing in warm or hot water is required.   Now let's talk about drying Dry hot towels or sheets in which the fibers of the fabric have stored oil over time is fire hazardous.   You therefore have two major reasons to properly maintain your supplies. Of good storage conditions, a proper handling as well as specific maintenance as described above are important for conservation, efficiency and safety.

S'attaquer au stress durant le retour aux études

dealing with stress while returning to school

Registrations are finished and the start of the school year is now upon us and the stress linked to success is well established. Returning to school is fraught with stress from the fear of missing memory. Improving memory requires a combination of good mental and physical health practices and a holistic approach and some specific strategies to optimize it. Improving memory requires continuous effort. Firstly, we must tackle stress which has a detrimental effect on memory. Essential oils containing linalool, limonene and/or citral are best allies for the control of stress impacting memory. Diffused essential oil of orange, lemon, lavender, mandarin, Indian verbena or neroli at night will have a strong impact on sleep and, in turn, on memory. Then, we tackle the memory itself: The corpus callosum allows the two cerebral hemispheres to share information, coordinate activities, and work together for various cognitive functions. It facilitates communication between the two cerebral hemispheres, which is essential for information processing and memory consolidation. Sensory information and memories are often processed differently in each cerebral hemisphere, then are integrated using the corpus callosum. The corpus callosum then allows this information to flow between the two hemispheres, which can help form a complete picture or coherent memory. When the corpus callosum is damaged, or simply stressed by stress, it can lead to impaired communication between the brain hemispheres, which can impact the brain's ability to process and integrate information. However, memory is a complex process that involves many other brain regions, including the hippocampus and cerebral cortex, which are more directly linked to the formation, storage and retrieval of memories. The best strategy is to tackle stress first. But as specific, effective and recognized strategy, use aromatherapy. Rosemary essential oil (Rosmarinus officinalis) is often touted for its stimulating and invigorating properties, including those relating to memory and concentration. Although the exact effects may vary from person to person, here are some of the active ingredients in rosemary that have been linked to memory benefits: 1,8-cineole (or eucalyptol): This is one of the major compounds in rosemary essential oil. It has been studied for its neuroprotective properties and its potential to improve cognition. 1,8-cineole may help increase focus and promote mental clarity. Antioxidants: Rosemary is rich in antioxidants, such as rosmarinic acids and flavonoids, which may help protect brain cells from oxidative damage. This may contribute to better long-term brain health. The smell of rosemary is often associated with mental stimulation and improved alertness. Inhaling rosemary essential oil can have an invigorating effect on the mind and help with concentration. Rosemary is often associated with mental stimulation and memory improvement. A study published in the journal Therapeutic Advances in Psychopharmacology in 2012 showed that rosemary essential oil had a positive effect on cognition. The active ingredients of peppermint essential oil are also known to increase mental acuity and concentration. Those from hemlock essential oil also promote concentration. Additionally, to significantly improve memory and cognition, it is essential to adopt a healthy lifestyle, including a balanced diet, regular physical activity, adequate sleep, and mentally stimulating exercises. These recommendations apply to broadcasters with blotting pads. However, for new diffusers, you can set the desired intensity according to need. Wording for distribution during the study period: 10 drops - Rosemary essential oil (Rosmarinus officinalis) 10 drops - Hemlock essential oil (Tsuga canadensis) 10 drops - Mandarin essential oil (Citrus reticulata) 1 drop - Peppermint essential oil (Mentha piperita)   Anti-stress formulation for night diffusion: 5 drops - Orange essential oil (Citrus aurantium) 10 drops - Lemon essential oil (Citrus limonum) 10 drops - Neroli essential oil (Citrus aurantium)   To see the Double-ended diffuser: Click here References : Academy of Scientific Massage, Clinical and Scientific Aromatherapy Course, 2023
