Also referred to as “hands-on therapy,” manual therapy is a specialized treatment method performed by physiotherapists without the use of intimidating equipment or machines – it is performed by manipulating joints and soft tissue with nothing more than the hands. This effective treatment method is used as a way to relieve pain, reduce swelling, decrease restriction, improve range of motion, and mobilize joints. There are a variety of techniques associated with manual therapy that work to move your tendons, ligaments, and joints in a very specific way that generates pain relief and healing. Our physiotherapists are highly-trained medical professionals who understand both the capabilities and limitations of your body. Many of our patients even notice relief after just one manual therapy session!

HEALTHY RECIPE GRILLED ZUCCHINI WITH PARMESAN

Ingredients

• 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped • ¼ tsp crushed red pepper • ½ cup whole-wheat panko breadcrumbs • ½ cup Parmesan cheese, grated • 1 tsp lemon zest

• ¼ tsp salt • 1½ teaspoons fresh thyme or 1 tsp dried thyme, crushed • 2 large zucchini, halved lengthwise

Combine oil, garlic and crushed red pepper in a small skillet over low heat. Cook, stirring often, about 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat; let cool for 5 minutes. Stir in panko, Parmesan, thyme, lemon zest and salt. Preheat grill to at least 500°F. Oil the grill grates, using tongs to hold an oil-soaked paper towel. Place zucchini, cut-sides down, on the oiled grates; grill, uncovered, until tender-crisp, about 5 minutes per side. Flip the zucchini so they are cut-side up; spoon the panko mixture evenly on top. Grill, covered, until the topping is golden brown in spots, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a serving platter. Serve with lemon wedges. LEAVE US A GOOGLE REVIEW: SHARE YOUR 5-STAR EXPERIENCE!
