welcoming, calming atmosphere greets guests when they walk into the beautifully designed offices of Whole Body Health. Outfitted with soothing, natureinspired colours and applications, the new offices of Dr. Shaelyn Osborn and her team of dedicated health and wellness practitioners are a perfect complement to the holistic, healing mandate of Whole Body Health. Clients are cheerfully greeted by name, helping to reduce any stress or anxiety they may have felt prior to their visit. “Our main focus is health and wellness, looking at holistic, natural means to allow the body to be at its best,” Osborn explained. “Our goal is to educate, empower and inspire people to live a life of optimal health and wellness.” Whole Body Health accomplishes that by offering a wide range of programs and services to compliment the family wellness chiropractic care offered by Osborn. Through gentle adjustments, Osborn helps optimize nerve system function. “The body is great at being able to adapt and deal with stress, but when the body is overwhelmed it needs to do something, so it will shut down as a protective mechanism,” Osborn said. “Then we need to get those nerves turned back on so that the body can heal and function at 100 per cent. “The nervous system not only controls muscles, it also controls organs, gland systems, hormones and immune systems. We’ve also seen with nerve

system irritation, a lot of changes in brain function, so with correcting the nervous system it optimizes the full system potential.” With special pre-natal and pediatric certification Osborn assists clients ranging from newborns to seniors. A check-up is first completed to determine if there is any irritation or blockage to the nervous system before chiropractic care is undertaken. Her holistic approach to care is echoed through other Whole Body Heath services, including massage therapy, osteopathy, Body Talk, a weight loss program, supplement recommendations, bioenergetic assessments, reflexology, stress management and wellness workshops. Yoga classes are also offered. “I always look at what I am referring people out for and then look for a good fit to my team,” Osborn said. “I have very high standards so people know once they’ve gotten to know me that if I brought somebody on the team, they can trust they are going to get the same high level of service and high quality care.” Clients will receive honest, straightforward advice about how they can optimize their health. “We treat people how we would like to be treated,” Osborn said. “We want them to walk out of here and say ‘wow, that was a great experience.’” People are invited to drop by to learn more about Whole Body Health, to pick up vitamins or supplement, or stop in for classes. ❱ 2013 PROFILES OF SUCCESS ❱ PAGE 5
