The Peninsula Osteopath

20/11/2025

This week Osteopath Elizabeth was lucky enough to complete the first ever Perrin Technique course ever run in Melbourne. It was a phenomenal experience to learn directly from Dr Perrin himself.
Elizabeth is now a qualified and licensed level 2 Perrin practitioner. This means she can use the treatment protocol to assess, diagnose and treat Myalgic encephalomyelitis (commonly known as chronic fatigue) as well as a number of other conditions such as fibromyalgia and long COVID.

Osteopathy is practised all over the world and as you all know, it’s something we are very passionate about.

Many people still don’t really know what an Osteopath does. Are you one of these people? Or do you know someone who is?

Feel free to get in touch with us anytime and we will gladly have a chat to you about what we do and why we are so passionate about osteopathy 😊

Have you heard of Mitochondrial Disease?

🧬 Mitochondria are the power houses of the cell providing the body with over 90% of the energy it needs to sustain life. Mitochondria take in sugars and proteins from the food we eat and produce energy called ATP that our bodies use to function properly.

🩺 Mitochondrial disease (mito) is a debilitating and potentially fatal disease that reduces the ability of the mitochondria to produce this energy. When the mitochondria are not working properly, cells begin to die until eventually whole organ systems fail and the patient’s life itself is compromised.

🏃🏾‍♀️This Sunday one of our very special friends is doing The Bloody Long Walk to raise money for research into Mitochondrial disease. This is in support of her beautiful little niece who has been diagnosed with mitochondrial disease.

🌈If you have the means to show your support with a donation, every single dollar will make a difference to those families suffering. ❤️

The appearance of this small spot on Morgan's ear was the beginning of a battle she heartbreakingly lost her life to. In 2018, at only 25 years old, Morgan died from melanoma. Today would be her 28th birthday, and now marks Check4Spots Day. Today, Morgan's family are urging everyone to book a skin check or at the very least ask a partner to check for spots not easily visible - because we don't want to lose any more people to melanoma.
