It's #WalkToWorkDay today.. Set the car keys down, set the alarm early, pack yourself a breakfast you can eat on the go, and plot your route. Those are the first steps to your Walk to Work Day experience. After that, you might want to grab a second set of shoes to throw in your bag so you arenŌĆÖt trying to walk in heels or dress shoes, both of those are just going to lead to a day of woe for you with blisters the size of pancakes. If itŌĆÖs particularly warm out, you might even pack your work clothes into your bag and give yourself a little extra time to change when you get there. Walk to Work Day helps you reduce carbon emissions, add some healthy movement to your day, and generally appreciate the world around you more. So get out there and get to steppinŌĆÖ!

We are very proud to receive such great feedback from our patients!

It's #EpilepsyAwarenessDay #WorldPurpleDay today.
Epilepsy is a disorder of the brain in which there is a tendency to have recurring seizures. The fact that seizures can reoccur is key, as a one off seizure does not mean it is epilepsy. It can affect anyone, at any age, from any walk of life. An epileptic seizure results from a sudden electrical discharge in the brain that causes changes in sensation, behaviour or consciousness.
... Seizures can take many forms because the brain is responsible for such a wide range of functions. Seizure symptoms depend on where in the brain this abnormal burst of electrical activity happens. As a result, there are many different types of seizures - most usually last from a few seconds to a few minutes and usually stop without any treatment.
