Replying to @WestJet
@WestJet cancelled our direct flight to Vancouver and rebooked us to an overnight flight with a 9.5 hr layover. We need to cancel for a refund but their online chat and phone number is down. All channels of contact are blocked. How is this even possible? Worse customer service.

call center said it wasn’t accepting calls. Now getting through but on hold for over an hr. Links in emails go to error page. Online chat is turned off. Seriously - how are customers supposed to get in touch with you?

Culture is an important social domain that clinicians should consider in the treatment of chronic pain. It is important to adapt bio-psycho-social assessments and treatments to a culture before using it in clinical practice. @link_physio doi.org/10.1016/j.bjpt.2018.…

Why patients don’t stick to home programs: 1) the programs don’t make sense to them 2) there was not connecting the dots to why the exercises will help them 3) no thought was put into picking them (paper handout?!?!) 4) no trust was built between the provider and patient

Does #CovidVaccination cause changes to #periods? Biggest and best study so far... In summary: on average, periods are delayed by ~half day by dose 2 of the vaccine, and delayed by ~2 days if you get both doses in the same cycle. But it's temporary! 🧵 journals.lww.com/greenjourna…

The longer I study healthcare, the more I realise that getting the basics right - sleep, food, stress management - is the essential foundation for good health. Everything else is gravy 😉

More than 41,000 new Covid cases in France in past 24 hours.
Trauma-informed care alongside #postpartum care is incredibly important but unfortunately not discussed enough!

Any other #pelvichealth #womenshealthphysio finding that there seems to be a lot more #trauma for women in relation to the labour and births? I am finding lack of follow up care is taking its toll! #postnatal #covidbabies #antenatal #butnotmaternity #thishurts

For every person eulogising about home working, I guarantee there are many more who don’t have a suitable space to work in, aren’t able to detach themselves from work at home and their mental health is being massively impacted by never seeing anyone or going anywhere.

While #workingfromhome can provide more balance & flexibility, there are extra risks including: - Increased risk of Burnout. - Loneliness & Isolation. - Ergonomic Issues (neck & back). - Difficulty Detaching from Work. 🙏♥️🦋📘 #MentalHealthAwareness #Health
