🎀 October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month

Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers affecting women, but early detection can make a meaningful difference.

This October, take a moment to prioritize your breast health:

🔹 Know what’s normal for you. Become familiar with how your breasts normally look and feel.

🔹 Don’t ignore changes. A new lump, change in breast size or shape, skin changes, ni**le changes, or unusual discharge should be discussed with your healthcare provider.

🔹 Stay up to date with screening. Mammograms can help detect breast cancer before symptoms appear. Talk with your healthcare provider about when screening is appropriate for you.

🔹 Know your family history. A family history of breast or ovarian cancer may affect your screening recommendations.

💗 Early detection matters. Don’t put off your breast health.

If you notice a change or have concerns, speak with your healthcare provider.

This October, take care of yourself — because your health matters. 🎀

🧡 September 30 | National Day for Truth and Reconciliation 🧡

Today is an opportunity to pause, reflect, and recognize the history and lasting impact of residential schools in Canada.

Reconciliation is an ongoing journey—one that calls on all of us to listen to Indigenous voices, learn from the past, and contribute to a future built on respect, understanding, and meaningful change.

We remember. We listen. We learn. 🧡

September 21 is World Alzheimer’s Day. 💜

Today is an opportunity to raise awareness, challenge misconceptions, and show support for the millions of people living with Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia — as well as the families and caregivers supporting them.

Alzheimer’s is more than memory loss. It can affect thinking, communication, behaviour, mood, and the ability to manage everyday activities. While there is currently no cure, early recognition, medical support, and access to appropriate resources can make an important difference.

A little understanding can go a long way.
Be patient. Be kind. Listen. Support caregivers. And remember that behind every diagnosis is a person who deserves dignity, compassion, and connection.

If you or someone you care about has concerns about memory or cognitive changes, speak with a healthcare professional.

Learn more and find resources through the Alzheimer Society of Canada.

💜 Remember. Support. Act.

🏒⚽🏐 Fall sports are back! 🍂

Whether you're returning to hockey, soccer, volleyball, football, basketball, dance, gymnastics, or another sport, taking a few simple steps before the season begins can help reduce your risk of injury and keep you performing at your best.

Swipe through for tips on how to stay healthy this season 👉

🏃 Ease back into training gradually after a summer break.

🤸 Always warm up before activity and cool down afterward.

💧 Stay hydrated—even in cooler weather, your body still loses fluids during exercise.

⛑ Wear properly fitted protective equipment and replace anything that's worn or damaged.

🩹 Listen to your body. Pain, swelling, or ongoing discomfort shouldn't be ignored.

🛌 Prioritize recovery with adequate sleep, good nutrition, hydration, and rest days. Recovery is just as important as training.

👩‍⚕️ Know when to book an appointment.
If pain lasts more than a couple of days, you're unable to bear weight, notice significant swelling, or an injury is preventing you from returning to your sport, it's a good idea to be assessed by a healthcare provider. Early evaluation and treatment can often prevent a minor injury from becoming a longer recovery.

At Sunalta Medical Clinic, we're here to help athletes of all ages stay healthy, recover from injuries, and safely return to the activities they love.

Here's to a fun, active, and injury-free fall season! 🍁💪

September is Acne Awareness Month!

Acne is one of the most common skin conditions, affecting people of all ages — not just teenagers. It develops when hair follicles become clogged with oil and dead skin cells, leading to blackheads, whiteheads, pimples, and sometimes deeper, painful lesions.

And acne is not a result of poor hygiene or being “dirty.” Hormones, genetics, inflammation, medications, and other factors can all play a role.

Acne can also have an impact beyond the skin. For some people, it can affect confidence, self-esteem, mental well-being, social relationships, school, or work.

The good news? Acne is treatable. Treatment depends on the type and severity of acne and may include topical medications, oral medications, skincare recommendations, or other treatments. Starting appropriate treatment early can also help reduce the risk of long-term scarring.

If acne is affecting your skin or your confidence, you don't have to manage it alone. A healthcare professional can help determine the right approach for you.

"Did you Know Series", Fact #3

Walking isn’t just good for your physical health—it can also have a positive impact on how you feel.

Regular walking may help:

🧠 Improve mood — Physical activity can stimulate the release of endorphins and other brain chemicals associated with improved mood and well-being.

😌 Reduce stress — Movement can help regulate the body’s stress response and may reduce feelings of tension and stress.

❤️ Support circulation and heart health — Even moderate-paced walking gets your heart pumping and helps improve cardiovascular fitness over time.

😴 Support better sleep — Regular daytime activity can contribute to healthier sleep patterns and improved sleep quality.

⚡ Boost energy — A short walk can help combat feelings of fatigue and give you a natural energy boost.

🌿 Create a mental break — Stepping away from your desk, routine, or screen—even for 20 minutes—can give your mind an opportunity to reset.

And you don’t need to walk for hours to benefit. Start where you are. A 10-minute walk is still movement, and gradually building toward 20–30 minutes a day can be a realistic goal for many people.

💙 Small steps can make a big difference.
