25.01.2022 Sandra did a course with this dance physio Sue Mayes and learnt a lot! She is doing great work!

25.01.2022 WE ARE CLOSED TODAY, Friday 14th August 2020. It is Ekka holiday, so for a little taste of Ekka, enjoy this video, made by my son 7 years ago! https://youtu.be/MjMvql1xhAA

25.01.2022 Movement is one of the best ways to warm up on these chilly days! Check out our first series of exercises using everyday equipment, thanks to Ally and her socks. All you need is polished timber or tile floors and a pair of socks!

24.01.2022 Dont be afraid that well make you stop your favourite exercise- come and see us and well work it out together. Book online or phone 38575815.

24.01.2022 What's your favourite knee and glute (buttock) exercise? Try these and post down below! Knee pain? You should be doing at least 2 of these exercises on a regular basis to strengthen, restore good leg alignment and reduce your pain! Which important exercise is missing?

24.01.2022 Sleep is not the only thing to take a hit once a new baby arrives! Your body and physical capabilities are affected also If youve been a runner before, or even during, pregnancy you might be wondering when its safe to start running again once bub is here. Check out this blog post from Lucy for some top level advice, or book in to see one of our physios for personalised care.

23.01.2022 It's common to struggle to find the motivation to exercise as the weather starts to cool down. And now we're faced with the challenges of coronavirus as well - social distancing, working from home, gyms closed and social sports cancelled! Check out Megan's tips for staying healthy and active over the next few months and remember - we're open and here to support you!

23.01.2022 COVID-19 UPDATE JULY/AUG 2020 This week an older patient asked me why we werent wearing masks. My answer was that Queensland has no community spread at this time. If we were to go into a second wave like Melbourne or Sydney, then we would start wearing masks and also ask our patients to wear masks. So what are we doing? We are continuing with our enhanced hygiene procedures which includes asking each patient to wash or sanitise their hands on arriving and leaving. We are not... seeing any unwell patients and none of our staff have been unwell. We continue to wipe down surfaces on treatment beds, chair arms, exercise equipment and door handles. We ask that patients keep 1.5m apart. Thanks to all of you who have kept away when you had a sore throat or a runny nose, even though none of our patients have been tested positive at any time during this pandemic. Thanks to all of you who have come back to see us when you felt comfortable to do so. You can be assured that we are doing our best to keep all our patients and staff safe. We have a policy in place should Queensland numbers of new cases start to increase. We already have masks at the practice. We are keeping a close eye on the recommendations of the government, Qld Health and the Australian Physiotherapy Association. It is exhausting, so thanks also for the great conversation, the jokes, the recommendations for Netflix, books and restaurants! Thanks for the kind words and the support.
