23.01.2022 Launched our Healing Well 2020 vision and planning meeting in style tonight! A fun fitness session with Alister or resident Sports Chiro, shared food and a mind map of our year ahead. Grateful for the dedicated and experienced practitioners that make up our team.

23.01.2022 At Healing Well, the Chiropractic and Osteopathic team want to let you know that our focus is on keeping our practitioners and you healthy. At this stage, we are keeping our doors open. We are, of course, keeping up to date with public health recommendations and, if the situation changes, we will let you know. Following Health Department guidelines, we have adopted practice-wide measures such as increased sanitation and cleaning.... The best options are for you and your family are: Wash your hands Stop handshakes and hugs Continue to eat well and stay hydrated, ensuring you get an adequate supply of vitamins and minerals, especially B and C vitamins. Exercise and get plenty of fresh air and sunlight. Connect with nature. Stay informed but take breaks from the news and social media to give your mind a rest. Be mindful of the older people in your life. Check-in on them, but if you’re sick, keep your distance. Please do not attend the practice if you have a fever or respiratory illness, or if you fit the recent criteria for self-isolation for 14 days. Weather permitting, consider waiting in the courtyard for your treatment. Please use the hand-sanitiser provided at the entrance to the clinic before your treatment. We all have a role to play during this time. Look out for your neighbours, family, and friends. Be kind to yourself and to one another. Also remember we live in one of the best places in Australia, with a clean environment, open-air, sunlight, fresh food, and a strong community. Stay well, and we look forward to seeing you.

23.01.2022 Welcome Mary ...... Mary’s journey into health care began as a young mother when her son had chronic tonsillitis and sinusitis. As his condition did not improve with medical care, Mary began to search for alternative forms of healing. Mary learned the principle that the body has an innate capacity for health and wellness. This led her to return to university to study Chiropractic. Mary was a registered school teacher prior to her Chiropractic studies and now combines her are...as of knowledge to support children in their families in learning and growth. Mary uses gentle, low force techniques and brain-stimulating exercises and programs to support children to reach their full potential.

18.01.2022 Massage offer for CFA (Country Fire Authority) volunteers! In the light of the tragedy that is unfolding, I decided to offer half price remedial massages to all fire fighting volunteers.
