We are planning to move office in 2021 so watch this space for future announcements. We have recently won an ACT Smart small business grant and can highly recommend any local small business organisations needing advice on options to reduce energy and water consumption. #ActSmart #energyefficientbuilding #solarenergy #carbonneutral .https://www.actsmart.act.gov.au//business-energy-and-water

06.01.2022 Canberra’s newest podiatrist owned speciality shoe store catering for children and adults in Tuggeranong.

05.01.2022 Many of our patients are fitted with a knee brace for injuries or post operative rehabilitation. Here is a instructional video with information about fitting the X-act from brace. Dr Porter will advice you/or physiotherapist about the ROM settings and timeframes to adjust. Generally we advice not to cut the straps (as shown in video) as you can fold the end over and re-attach the velco end straps over the fold. This will give you more options later when needing to adjust for clothing under brace or if straps stop sticking to one section. https://www.djoglobal.com/products/donjoy/x-act-rom-knee
