Hi 👋 I’m Haley Veronyak a therapist looking to help you live a happy and fulfilled life.

1️⃣ I love camping and being in nature. For me, nature acts as a way to decompress from the week and reground myself! One of my favourite places to camp is Bon Echo Provincial Park.  
2️⃣ I have a BSc in Medical Science and a masters in Counselling Psychology. Coming from a science background, I ensure that I use data and evidence backed methods in my practice.  
3️⃣ I work at @cornerstonehealthcentre downtown with other health providers like naturopaths, chiropractors, and massage therapists. Most of my clients see more than 1 provider to help with their mental and physical health as well!

Interested in therapy? Book a free 20 minute call with me (follow the link in my bio).

It is arguably the most valuable organ in the huma

It is arguably the most valuable organ in the human body, the very foundation of our emotions, decision making and personality. Despite this, the brain is still very much the final frontier of science. There is much that remains unknown and understood about this vital structure.

“5.5 million Canadians have been diagnosed with a chronic brain condition, and within the next 20 years, brain conditions will become the leading cause of death and disability in Canada. “
https://www.abilities.ca/organizations/march-is-brain-awareness-month/

These stats make it clear that prioritizing, maintaining and/or improving the health of our brains will have a significant impact on our quality of life. While we may have no control over any genetic predispositions we might have to brain disorders, there are steps we can take in order to reduce our risk of developing Alzheimers and other diseases.

Kelsey Kidd is a nurse practitioner in Neurology in Mankato, Minnesota. Here are her six recommendations to patients in order of importance:

1. Exercise regularly
2. Get plenty of sleep.
3. Eat a Mediterranean diet.
4. Stay mentally active.
5. Remain socially involved.
6. Keep your blood vessels healthy.

This can be accomplished by getting your cholesterol, blood sugar and blood pressure checked regularly and keeping those numbers within normal, healthy ranges.

In honour of International Women's Day, we at Corn

In honour of International Women's Day, we at Cornerstone would like to draw attention to something we feel strongly about: the inequity in healthcare for women. According to the World Economic Forum, "despite healthcare advances in the past few decades, we still face wide gaps in research and treatment ability for areas that are unique to women, such as maternal and menstrual health, as well as for conditions that present differently in women than men. These gaps can result in major health issues and disparities in treatment that are largely preventable.” A common example of this is endometriosis diagnosis and care. This very common chronic inflammatory disease impacts up to 12% of women in North America. It takes on average 8-12 years to secure a diagnosis of endometriosis. If you are under the age of 20, it can take up to 15 years to be diagnosed. This is completely unacceptable.

Gender bias drives a major portion of this inequity. A 2018 study found that doctors often view men with chronic pain as “brave” or “stoic,” but view women with chronic pain as “emotional” or “hysterical.” The study also found that doctors were more likely to treat women’s pain as a product of a mental health condition, rather than a physical condition. In 2023, we can do better.

At Cornerstone we are committed to taking your health concerns seriously and doing everything we can to get you back to wellness.
