Baby massage is a beautiful way to support bonding, relaxation, and settling — and it’s also a practical skill you can use at home as your baby grows.

Monica Moreno offers baby massage classes designed to teach parents simple, gentle techniques in a calm, supportive environment. You’ll learn easy routines you can use to help your baby feel comfortable and relaxed, while building confidence in reading your baby’s cues.

Interested in joining a class with Monica? Please contact us for dates and sessions. Events for 2026 are currently being organised.

Looking for something gentle but targeted? Monica Moreno is trained in Bowen Therapy — a precise, light-touch technique that many people choose for a wide range of musculoskeletal and functional complaints. Ideal if you prefer a softer approach to care.

Bowen Therapy (also called Bowen Technique) is a gentle, hands-on manual therapy that uses light, precise soft-tissue moves, often with short pauses between sets. Sessions are typically calm and are tailored to how you’re feeling on the day.

At Tuggeranong Chiropractic Centre and Tuggeranong Therapeutic Massage, Bowen Therapy is offered as a standalone appointment or as supportive care alongside other evidence-based treatment and exercise plans, where appropriate

Defence Health Claiming Issue – Update

We’re currently seeing some Defence Health claims decline when processed in-clinic. We’ve been advised this is due to a known internal Defence Health issue relating to their provider records. They’re working on a fix, however there’s no confirmed timeframe at this stage.

In the meantime, some claims may need to be submitted manually.
✅ After your appointment, we can provide an itemised invoice/receipt so you can claim directly with Defence Health.

Everything appears to be working correctly on our end. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the practice.

Update: Our Bupa claiming now appears to be working normally. 😀

Have a great day and long weekend — it’s our honour to care for veterans and their families, as well as our wider community.

22/01/2026

A few quick updates for today –

1. Some Bupa online systems are playing up this morning, so extras claims for some Bupa members might not go through straight away as they normally would.

If you’re with Bupa and your claim won’t process:
✅ No need to worry — you can usually submit your claim later once their systems are back online
✅ Hang on to your receipt/invoice (and if you misplace it, we can re-send a copy to you)

In the meantime feel free to go ahead and book as normal — we’ll help sort out the admin side afterwards and hopefully this is working well again shortly.

2. Please also note we’ll be closed on the Monday 26th January of this upcoming long weekend.

There are still limited appointments available for today and tomorrow, so if you’re needing some help, be sure to book in before the break. Otherwise, from our team we hope you have a lovely weekend!
