Sandy's Peruvian Adventure!
Many of you have been wondering what our very own Sandy has been doing on her travels, and we're thrilled to share some updates! Sandy has been fully immersed in the rich cultural diversity of Peru and its breathtaking mountains.
Here's a message directly from Sandy:
"Well, I made it! All I can say is Machu Picchu is more amazing than I imagined. The Inca Trail was the most physically challenging thing I have ever done, but it was absolutely spectacular and so worth every step. I hope you are all going well!"
We're so proud of Sandy for embracing such an incredible adventure and challenging herself physically. We can't wait for her to bring back her renewed energy and experiences to the practice!

It was truly moving to see so many people come together to say goodbye to Pete Barrett, a local legend. His dedication to our community through his physiotherapy work was extraordinary. Friday was a bittersweet moment, marking the end of his incredible career. We'll miss his caring presence and skill in the clinic, but the turnout showed just how much he meant to everyone.
