Your health is important! Join the staff of the Al and Malka Green Artists’ Health Centre (AHC) at Toronto Western Hospital for a unique workshop focusing on your health and well-being.  

From dealing with stress, to repetitive strain injuries, use of harsh chemicals and demanding schedules, artists put a lot of strain on their physical and mental well-being. Join us to learn tips to take care of your body and mind.

Come and meet Dr. Dugoua (Naturopathic Doctor), Ruth Bittorf (Nurse Practitioner) and Susan Lucas (Psychotherapist) as they guide you through self-care strategies including tips for managing stress, naturopathic medicine to heal the body and a guided meditation. The workshop will include an introduction to the services of the AHC, tour of the clinic and a Q&A.
