Good Friday next week.

A returning patient reminded me that they had first come for assistance in the early 90s. Events had transpired and they thought of me again for help for a recent acute muscle, spine and joint pain situation. The had partly been triggered into action because they had visited the Through Road shops, saw my 2020s signage and thought ‘wow, the clinic has been there since their teenage years. Then suddenly when they needed my care, they looked me up, read the google reviews which reinforced their decision. Thinking back to the early 1990s, Google reviews didn't exist and Inhadn’t yet computerised the practice in any shape or form. Although I did have a fax machine, mobile phone and pager.
Times change and now I have desktops, laptops and smart phones. Although, I still have a fax machine. It’s there to receive diagnostic imaging reports.
It’s great to hear what brought them in originally. Issues with carrying school books in a bag that only went over one shoulder. We laughed how that was about the time that the Crumpler brand of messenger bags appeared in a shop near the corner of Smith and Gertrude Streets in Fitzroy. You don’t see as many messengers these days now that many businesses accept electronically signed documents or have ways of sending documents electronically. Funnily enough, another patient has been walking long distances with one of these bags and I have recommended they swap to a back pack to rebalance the loads over their shoulders. They may pass the now vintage Crumpler messenger bag over to their son. Some things change and others do not!

Our Story: Your Story

The picture above tells a story. It is the daphne odora plant in the back yard of the clinic. By virtue of where we chose to place it, the tree has thrived. Notably, you may make out where it was cut back. We chose to trim it at a particular point in it’s annual cycle. Nurtured it and it was able to produce lovely growth. In some ways it is symbolic of the treatment in the clinic. working out the plan of care for the plant and implementing it at the right time. This is similar to how we help clients manage the pain that affects their muscles and joints. Especially, in the case where medications don’t seem to be helping any more and surgery is not on the cards for them yet.
