Ive had a great experience here with the health program and working with the NP. They went through a transition phase and handled it so well and make sure I was taken care of through the whole thing. They have been quick to respond and get me appointments. 100% recommend.
Dr. Christine Rad assessed me then put me on a stretching and exercise routine that had me back on my feet in no time.
I was very impressed with her knowledge of the anatomy. But the handiest thing had to be the app, which demonstrates each exercise using a video.
Excellent medical clinic. Dedicated, knowledgeable staff who are focused on their patients’ health, well-being and improved quality of life.
Metabolic rate refers to the amount of food or calories that is converted to energy in a day. Resting metabolic rate (RMR) is the measurement of how much food, or energy, is required to keep essential bodily functions running throughout your day. Some of these functions include maintaining body temperature, heart beat, breathing, digestion, and more.
An RMR test will tell you exactly how many calories you burn at rest, doing nothing more than just sitting. We are pleased to offer this service to our Ottawa Health: Performance and Rehabilitation patients.
Our practitioners can calculate the amount of calories your body is using by calculating the amount of oxygen used during each breath. In order to “burn” 1 calorie (kilocalorie) while at rest, you need 208.06 milliliters of oxygen. This is a direct relationship between the amount of calories being burned and the amount of oxygen being consumed.
The test usually takes between ten and twenty minutes. You will be asked to dress comfortably while you breathe directly through a breathing tube that is connected to our metabolic testing device. During the test, you’ll be watching a calming show while you relax. All you need to do is breathe!
There are a variety of factors that influence your metabolism, such as the amount of exercise you perform, body temperature, fat-free mass, and more. Your metabolism will most likely change as you improve your level of fitness. Use these results before making any significant dietary changes. By knowing your resting metabolic rate, you’ll know exactly how many calories your body needs per day. Now you can begin changing your diet!
Each test includes a one-time use breathing tube and nose clips. These are non-reusable and cannot be recycled for re-testing.
