As a physiotherapist, Racine’s advice is
simple. “Straighten up! Be conscious
about good posture. Try to stand ‘tall’ all
the time, sitting or standing, more when
reading,” he says, adding that it is impera-
tive to consult a doctor or physiotherapist
at the onset of health issues. “The tiniest
rattling noise from our car and we run to
see a mechanic to get it fixed. However,
when it comes to our health, we endure
small pain months before consulting.
Many times, long-term damages could
have been prevented or avoided early on.”
In fact, PhysioExtra is challenging the
whole community to be fit … for a good
cause. Every year for the past five years,
the company has been sponsoring a run
in Terrebonne, Quebec to support triath-
letes from the area. PhysioExtra’s mascot,
PHYSED, can be seen mingling amidst the
1,000 participants who attend this event.
SUCCESS AND CHALLENGES
With his passion for the arts, Racine’s clin-
ics are always esthetically pleasing to the
eye. It doesn’t need to look like a “clinic”,
“Straighten up! Be conscious about good posture. Try to stand ‘tall’ all the time,
sitting or standing, more when reading.”
