25.01.2022 Some interesting information from Queens Hospital in London. Wishing everyone a blessed and quiet Easter long weekend.

24.01.2022 So.....hasn't it been quite the amazing year! It is rapidly coming to a close though and as such, today is our last day in the clinic for 2020. We will return to normal hours from Monday Jan 11th. We wish you all the happiest Christmas and New Years and I'm quite sure we are all hoping for a much better 2021 as the world slowly returns to some normality.

23.01.2022 Today is World Spine Day so remember to #getspineactive ! World Spine Day highlights the importance of spinal health and wellbeing. Promotion of physical activity, good posture, responsible lifting and healthy working conditions will all feature as people are encouraged to look after their spines and stay active. With an estimated one billion people worldwide suffering from back pain, it affects all age groups, from children to the elderly. It is the biggest single cause of disability on the planet, with one in four adults estimated to suffer from back pain during their lives. Prevention is therefore key and this year’s World Spine Day will be encouraging people to take steps to be kind to their spines. http://www.worldspineday.org/ #parkinsonchiropractic #toowoombaalliedhealth #spine #health #wellbeing

22.01.2022 We are now closed this afternoon as well as weekend as I am off to attend a continuing education seminar. Hope we never stop learning new things. See you Monday.

22.01.2022 Rain gratefully accepted and so is the sunshine this beautiful morning.

20.01.2022 I’ve arrived extra early to clinic today as this is our last full work day of 2019 and likely to be the busiest of the year as well. Sitting quietly with a morning coffee before it all begins. Only two remaining appointment times left.

19.01.2022 While I don’t see patients on Wednesday morning it doesn’t mean I’m not at work to do all the other jobs to keep Toowoomba Allied Health beautiful. Finally mowed after all the rain. Boy is it lush and green!

19.01.2022 Next week will be the final full week of work for us in 2019. It’s been a full and amazing year. If you’re thinking of a visit next week please give us a call our final pre-holidays last week will be a busy one. We will then be back for 2020 on January 6th.

15.01.2022 Among all the many and varied patients that we treat, farmers of all persuasions have always been strongly represented. I know that the rains we are now enjoying aren't blessing all equally and they aren't alone going to break this drought but this morning as I sit in the clinic hearing the rain on the roof I feel thankful and am particularly hoping that it will me a help to all farming families especially.

15.01.2022 I have to endorse these thoughts from Healthy Lifestyles Australia who are tenants within our Toowoomba Allied Health facility. They do amazing work and these thoughts are spot on.

14.01.2022 Some good advice from The Smart Chiropractor page.

14.01.2022 Can’t believe that it was a year ago that we closed the door on the old Campbell St clinic. The first year in the new Scott St Centre has been awesome and we love it so much. Couldn’t have predicted the weird COVID19 world we are living in though.

11.01.2022 Be active! Be healthy! Be happy!

10.01.2022 Hello everyone. Apologies for any inconvenience but I am away in Brisbane this afternoon and as such we are closed this afternoon. Back to normal from tomorrow.

09.01.2022 Hello everyone. As most of you know, a standard inclusion of the treatment we give is to receive heat packs as well as a lovely massage before any manual therapy or chiropractic work is done. This obviously has me seeing a lot of moles and marks and also the odd amazing tattoo. I leave this here today for you all to have a look at and think about your own moles. This is basically the process I go through when noticing any moles that I will see during my day. I am not a dermatologist by any means but I have sent more than a few patients to their GP in the past as I considered a mole questionable and it turned out to be a skin cancer needing removal. So check your moles today. It may save your life.

08.01.2022 I love that this is an image of a strong and vibrant older body. I hear all the time patients saying things like "oh well, I'm getting old and should expect problems" and I think, these aren't problems because you're beyond 50 (not old by the way!) but are happening because you hardly move and maintain no fitness. Use it or lose it! Your body is a wonder and it's never too late to get moving and reap the health benefits. We at Parkinson Chiropractic love helping people on their journey to improved health and movement. #parkinsonchiropractic #toowoombaalliedhealth #pain #movement #ToowoombaChiro

08.01.2022 When I was planning the new clinic building, I knew that I wanted best standards in all areas. I consulted with a good friend who also happens to be an expert in hand hygiene. She advised and we followed. So this is what we do at Parkinson Chiropractic simply as a matter of course. We’ve already been doing this for over a year anyhow but in the current COVID-19 situation it is even more front of mind. Both I and my staff wash our hands with Chlorhexidine between seeing EVER...Y patient and treatment tables are disinfected after every use. For 80% of people who develop Covid19, the latest evidence is that symptoms will be mild......however amongst those who are elderly, infirm or immune compromised, the risks are greater and those groups of people are well served to stay home as much as possible to reduce exposure in the community. Here at Parkinson Chiropractic we are doing all we can to keep you, as well as ourselves healthy. Hand washing is our number 1 step.

06.01.2022 Important information regarding our hours of operation during COVID-19. We are still open and seeing patients in need of our services as are the other allied health services within Toowoomba Allied Health. We have however altered our hours such that we are only taking patients typically within each afternoon. We are booking patients in a way that reduces numbers in the building as well as continuing with all the hand washing and linen changes that we were already doing before. It does seem thus far that the curve representing new infections has slowed, so that is encouraging news for us all as we continue to work through this crazy situation together.

06.01.2022 Our latest Clinic Blog on posture & headache. #headaches #tensionheadache #chiropractic #parkinsonchiropractic

05.01.2022 We live in a very "flexion based world". What does that mean? When we sit for hours at the computer. When we relax on the couch. When we look for ages at our screened devices. They are all flexion based positions. Take a little time out every 30 minutes to just stand up and place your body into extension. You'll feel great because of it and your posture will thank you. www.parkinsonchiropractic.com.au #posture #parkinsonchiropractic #toowoombaalliedhealth #toowoombachiropractic

02.01.2022 And here we are in 2020 and today is our first day back in the clinic. We are refreshed and so ready for a great year. We now have from our 8 Scott St facility, businesses offering Chiropractic, Dietitian, Exercise Physiology, Naturopathy, Diabetes Education, Acupuncture and also Counselling services. We still have room for growth so are looking forward to who else will join us in 2020 as we additionally start to offer movement based exercise classes on site.... It's going to be an exciting year I believe.

01.01.2022 Hello everyone. Something different this afternoon. I am not off at a Melbourne Cup function.......however......the clinic will be closed this afternoon and we will return to normal hours again from tomorrow.
