✋ Carpal Tunnel Syndrome: Did You Know Surgery Isn't Your Only Option?
Many people are told that surgery is the next step when they develop symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome. While surgery can be appropriate in some cases, it is not always the first or only treatment option.
If you're experiencing:
✔️ Numbness or tingling in your hands or fingers
✔️ Wrist pain, especially at night
✔️ Weakness or reduced grip strength
✔️ Symptoms that interfere with work, sports, or daily activities
There may be conservative treatment options worth exploring before considering surgery.
At Sirius Health Centre, Dr. Calvin Crichton, Registered Acupuncturist and Doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine, has extensive experience supporting patients with carpal tunnel syndrome and other nerve, muscle, and repetitive strain conditions. His treatment approach focuses on reducing pain, improving function, and helping patients return to their daily activities.
Early intervention often leads to better outcomes, so don't wait until symptoms become severe.
📅 Book online through our website or call us with any questions about whether treatment may be appropriate for you.

Every patient is different. Treatment recommendations depend on the severity and cause of symptoms, and some cases may still require medical or surgical assessment.

Jaw Pain? Clicking? Tension Headaches? Acupuncture May Help.
TMJ (temporomandibular joint) dysfunction can affect much more than your jaw. Many people experience jaw pain, clicking or popping, facial tension, headaches, neck pain, ear discomfort, difficulty chewing, or limited jaw movement.
TMJ symptoms may be related to muscle tension, stress, teeth grinding (bruxism), clenching, postural issues, or irritation of the jaw joint and surrounding tissues.
Acupuncture is commonly used to help reduce muscle tension, promote relaxation, improve circulation, and support the body's natural healing processes. Many patients seek acupuncture to help manage:
✔ Jaw pain and tightness
✔ Clicking or popping sensations
✔ Teeth grinding and jaw clenching
✔ Tension headaches and migraines
✔ Facial pain and muscle tension
✔ Neck and shoulder tension associated with TMJ dysfunction
At Sirius Health Centre, our experienced acupuncturists provide personalized treatment plans tailored to your individual symptoms and goals. Treatment may be used alongside recommendations from your dentist, physician, or other healthcare providers.
If TMJ symptoms are affecting your comfort, sleep, eating, or daily activities, acupuncture may be worth exploring.

Thinking About a Tummy Tuck or Already Recovering?
A tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) is a major procedure, and proper recovery can make a significant difference in your comfort and healing experience.
Swelling, bruising, tightness, fluid buildup (seroma), fibrosis, and discomfort are common after surgery. Appropriate post-surgical lymphatic care may help support your recovery and improve overall comfort.
At Sirius Health Centre, our skilled MLD and Lymphedema Therapist, Irina, works daily with plastic surgery patients recovering from tummy tucks, liposuction, mommy makeovers, BBL procedures, breast surgeries, and other cosmetic surgeries.
Manual Lymph Drainage may help:
✔ Reduce post-surgical swelling
✔ Support lymphatic drainage
✔ Improve comfort and mobility
✔ Help manage fibrosis and tissue tightness
✔ Assist with fluid management
✔ Support the body's natural healing process
Irina is Dr. Vodder Academy certified in Manual Lymph Drainage and Combined Decongestive Therapy, with advanced training in post-surgical recovery and edema management.

🩵 New Research Supports Early Lymphedema Prevention After Cancer Surgery 🩵
Exciting new research published in PeerJ suggests that starting Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) early after gynecologic cancer surgery involving lymph node removal may significantly reduce the risk of developing lower-extremity lymphedema.
At Sirius Health Centre, we strongly believe that lymphedema care should not begin only after swelling appears. Early assessment, education, and treatment may help support healthy lymphatic function and improve long-term outcomes for patients recovering from cancer treatment.
Our Dr. Vodder-certified Manual Lymphatic Drainage therapists provide evidence-informed care for:
✔️ Cancer-related lymphedema
✔️ Post-surgical swelling
✔️ Lipedema
✔️ Venous insufficiency
✔️ Post-radiation edema
✔️ Compression garment fitting and education
If you or a loved one are preparing for surgery or experiencing swelling after cancer treatment, we are here to help.

Why Fascial Work Matters
Fascia is a continuous network of connective tissue that surrounds and supports muscles, bones, nerves, blood vessels, and organs. Because fascia connects the entire body, restrictions in one area can affect movement and comfort elsewhere.
Fascial restrictions may develop from injury, surgery, repetitive movements, poor posture, stress, inflammation, or scar tissue. These restrictions can contribute to pain, stiffness, reduced mobility, postural imbalances, headaches, and ongoing tension.
Osteopathic fascial treatment aims to identify and gently release these restrictions, helping improve movement, reduce tension, enhance mobility, and support the body's natural ability to function efficiently.
At Sirius Health Centre, Osteopath Anastasia provides individualized care using a whole-body approach. Depending on your needs, treatment may include fascial techniques, cranial osteopathy, visceral work, postural assessment, and nervous system regulation.
Whether you are recovering from an injury, experiencing chronic discomfort, or looking to improve mobility and overall wellness, osteopathic treatment may help.
Anastasia is currently accepting new patients.
