Beating the Heat with HVAC technology

Hi guys!
Lately the weather has been getting a lot warmer; which is always a bit of a weird feeling to me, and to a lot of Canadians I imagine, because of how used to the blistering cold we are. It is definitely starting to feel like summer.


As the temperature rises, the need for lots of business and families are turning to HVAC technicians for help with installation and maintenance of their air conditioning, refrigeration, and heating technology.  Places like Arctic Air, which is a Calgary HVAC and Refrigeration company, focus on installing, maintaining and servicing different type of HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) equipment.

As the summer blazes on, it's important to make sure that you are getting your cooling systems installed correctly and professionally, whether it's an air conditioner, a walk-in cooler, an exhaust fan, or an ice machine. The same token applies to servicing and upkeep of your HVAC units. According to their website, all air conditioning systems need regular maintaining in order to run efficiently.

Physiotherapy in Calgary

Hey everyone!
My mom is a very sick woman, and recently has had to access the services of a physiotherapist. She is an amputee as well as a diabetic, so getting her mobile again is a very complex and long term journey.

After finally visiting a Calgary physiotherapist, I realized just how hard it is to find one. I wasn't sure exactly what my mom needed, what her problems were, and what treatment I was even looking for. I knew that it was important that I find a clinic with a range of specializations so that the chances of getting my mom the right treatment plan would be better. 


This clinic had two locations, which gave us the option to drive less, since it's already a bit of a challenge getting around. The staff helped with setting up direct billing, which is something that I didn't even think of right away. When we arrived they were very friendly to my mom, which I say is a very good thing considering the years of medical problems she has gone through have made her a bit of a handful at times to deal with.
They let me know that she was in good hands, and that the physiotherapists there had over 10 years of experience; this gave me confidence knowing that they would most likely have seen a case like my mom's before.
Because my mom had pre-existing conditions, her treatment plan was personalized and they took into consideration the amount of exertion she could handle at each session - and kept this in mind for her future scheduled visits. I am glad that clinics such as AlbertaPT.com are around so that my mom can find the help she needs and get walking again.


Calgary Dental Office visit

Hey everyone!
A few weeks ago I had a bad run in with a rock and ended up slipping and chipping my tooth on the sidewalk; it was incredibly painful and most of all extremely embarrassing. I was a bit confused about what my options were after that, and that's why I want to let you know what I learned from reading around a bit about the subject and my own personal experience.

A lot of dental offices cover a wide range of services such as teeth cleaning, braces, dentures, cosmetic surgery, and fillings. After meeting with a Calgary dentist, I was happy to learn that due to my school's insurance plan, I could have my tooth fixed in a matter of weeks.

Step one was the consultation where they met with me and assessed my mouth. They made some initial guesses about what they could do and took a lot of pictures. After that, my next appointment was a few days later. I went in and received a root canal to get rid of all of the nerves in my tooth that were currently exposed do to the chip. I felt so much better leaving the office, because the pains from eating and breathing were now gone.

I was fitted for a crown and color matched at an office in the city, and after that was able to go in for a crown placement. They used a special type of glue adhesive to make sure that the crown was on stable and would not break off from things like chewing and movement.
It looks great, and I'm happy that there are dental offices in Calgary like DynamicDentalCalgary.com that made me feel at home during my entire experience and left me smiling as they promised.
