I know I have many patients that do local races. Here is one that is upcoming in October. It benefits the The Windsor Youth Centre

No Youth Left Behind, Moving Forward Together

On Saturday, October 24 2026, Windsor's waterfront will come alive with costumes, community spirit, and a shared commitment to supporting local youth.

The WYCked Run is not your typical fundraising run or walk! It's a celebration of community, creativity, inclusivity and giving back.

Whether you're an experienced runner, a casual walker, a family looking for a fun morning together or someone who simply wants to support a great cause, there is a place for you at the WYCked Run.

Costumes are encouraged, but not required. Come dressed as your favorite Halloween character! Show off a homemade creation, coordinate costumes with your team, or simply come as yourself. All are welcome, and welcome are all!

Participants can register as individuals or create a team with friends, family members, coworkers, classmates, or community groups.

Every participant has the opportunity to create a personal fundraising page and help make a meaningful difference in the lives of local youth.

The event features a scenic 5K run or walk along the beautiful Detroit River waterfront. It will begin and end at the Great Canadian Flag in Dieppe Gardens.

The course is mostly flat, making it ideal for runners, walkers, families, and participants of all experience levels. If you are feeling competitive, join the timed 5K Run and compete for awards presented to the top three male and female finishers. Every runner will receive a unique finisher medal to commemorate their achievement.

Participants in the 5K Walk will receive a commemorative event pin and can enjoy the riverfront at their own pace while supporting a worthy cause.

Families are encouraged to bring their children and enjoy the Kids Trick-or-Treat Trail, featuring candy stations, entertainment, family activities, and a special treat bag for every child.

The fun continues with our annual costume contest, featuring awards for Best Individual Costume and Best Group Costume.

Every dollar raised through the WYCked Run supports the Windsor Youth Centre and helps provide vulnerable youth with access to a safe place to connect, nutritious meals, essential resources, encouragement, and opportunities to build brighter futures.

Our mission is simple: No Youth Left Behind, Moving Forward Together. When you participate in the WYCked Run, you are doing more than crossing a finish line.

You are helping create hope, stability, and opportunity for young people in our community.

September is Arthritis Awareness Month. We’re sharing four examples of how a chiropractor can provide you with drug-free, non-invasive ways to manage your arthritis and its pain.

Following an initial assessment, history, and physical examination, your chiropractor can recommend which treatments are appropriate for your specific arthritis management needs.

1. PATIENT EDUCATION: Education builds confidence.
Chiropractors provide guidance on pacing, flare-up management, and self-care strategies that help you stay active and in control.

2 SPINAL MANIPULATION: Spinal manipulation may offer short-term pain and mobility improvements for patients with some forms of arthritis.


3. SOFT-TISSUE THERAPY: Soft-tissue techniques may reduce muscle tension and help improve your mobility.

4. EXERCISE GUIDANCE: Exercise is the foundation of arthritis care. Chiropractors guide patients toward safe, effective movements that improve strength, mobility, and daily function.

Looking for a spine, muscle and joint expert to help you prevent or manage your arthritis? Visit your local chiropractor!

In Ontario, you can visit a chiropractor without a referral from a family physician or other health care professional. Hands on Health Windsor 𝔻𝕣. ℝ𝕖𝕖𝕟𝕒 ℙ𝕒𝕥𝕙𝕒𝕜, 𝔻ℂ Ontario Chiropractic Assoc

Keeping a superstar running smoothly takes continuous care. Even Ed Sheeran needs a regular tune-up to handle the physical demands of high-energy stage performances! (NOTE: image created with AI from online reference images).

⭐️Tour Health Routine: Long travels, heavy guitar setups, and hours on stage put serious strain on an artist’s back, neck, and voice. Professional adjustments keep the body balanced and pain-free.

Alert from Windsor Regional Hospital

Emergency Department Volumes At High Capacity; Public Asked to Consider ED Alternatives

Windsor Regional Hospital is seeing higher than normal Emergency Department volumes at this time.

We kindly remind our community that our Emergency Departments are here for urgent and emergency care needs. Critically ill patients are the priority. Patients attending the Emergency Department at WRH for non-emergency issues could experience much longer wait times than usual.

Both EDs at WRH are experiencing higher patient volumes. If your condition is not life-threatening, please check each organization’s Emergency Department Wait Time Clocks before deciding which campus to visit. The clocks provide estimated physician wait times and current patient volumes. Please remember these are averages only, and patients with the most urgent needs are always seen first.

Visit WRH’s clock here - https://www.wrh.on.ca/EmergencyWaitTimes

In an emergency, always call 911 or go to the nearest Emergency Department.

Alternatives to Hospital Emergency Departments:

It should also be noted, the public has an important role to play in helping to reduce hospital and ambulance wait times. For non-emergency situations, the public can phone 811, go to a walk-in clinic or make an appointment with their family doctor. More information about alternatives to the ED can be found here: https://wrh.on.ca/ED-Alternatives

Virtual Urgent Care may be the right fit if you or a loved one has a medical issue that is NOT life-threatening but requires urgent medical attention and you’re unable to access timely care through a primary care provider. Learn more and book an appointment here: https://www.urgentcareontario.ca/

Patients and families can also visit the Windsor Essex Ontario Health Team online - https://www.weoht.ca/resources/i-need-a-family-doctor-or-nurse-practitioner/ - for links to medical assistance as well as primary care and clinic options in our region and beyond.

If you’re unsure whether you require emergency or urgent care, please visit the Essex-Windsor EMS Make The Right Call web page at https://www.countyofessex.ca/emergency-services/ambulance-and-paramedics/make-the-right-call/ for helpful information.

This Migraine Awareness Month, we’re helping shine a light on migraine as a serious neurological disease that affects millions of Canadians. By increasing understanding and reducing stigma, we can help those living with migraine feel seen, supported, and empowered. ⁠
⁠
While migraine triggers vary from person to person, common triggers can include stress, poor sleep, dehydration, hormonal changes, certain foods, and neck tension. ⁠
⁠
Chiropractors are trained to assess the spine, muscles, and nervous system to help identify factors that may be contributing to headache pain, rule out serious concerns, recommend appropriate treatment options, or refer when necessary. For some people, chiropractic care may play a role in managing migraines and recurrent headaches as part of a broader care plan. ⁠
