Lizzy and Tammy were privileged to have the opportunity to train in The Perrin Technique with Dr Raymond Perrin.

The Perrin Technique developed by Dr Perrin over the last 30 years is a gentle, targeted osteopathic approach developed specifically for those living with ME/CFS (chronic fatigue syndrome) and Fibromyalgia.

This method supports the body’s natural ability to regulate the autonomic nervous system, improve lymphatic flow, and ease the physical strain associated with chronic fatigue and pain conditions.

Our Osteopaths are passionate about helping you take proactive steps to protect your bones, whether you're 25 or 65.

Did you know that Osteoporosis affects over 2.1 million Australians and 2 out of 3 women with osteoporosis will experience pain from an osteoporotic fracture. ⁠

Osteoporosis weakens bones, making falls and fractures more likely.
But here’s the key..... prevention starts earlier than you think.
Bone density peaks in your late 20s to early 30s, and begins to decline naturally from around age 35. That’s why building and maintaining strong bones early in life is essential for preventing osteoporosis later on.

Our Osteopaths are passionate about educating and supporting our clients to prevent reduction in bone density. Osteopaths help by encouraging and advising on safe, weight-bearing movement and improving posture and balance to keep your skeleton strong.

Read our blog to find out how you can maintain good bone health or chat to one of our Osteopaths for more information. Link in bio.

Hormonal shifts during perimenopause and menopause can affect joints, sleep, and energy.

Up to 60% of women going through menopause report joint aches, especially in the neck, shoulders, hands, and knees. This discomfort can be compounded by sleep disturbances, low energy, and emotional changes all tied to the hormonal shifts your body is navigating.

Osteopathic care targets aches and stiffness, boosts circulation, and supports your body's natural healing processes, helping you feel more balanced through this transition.

Our Osteopaths understand how complex this stage of life can be — physically, mentally, and emotionally. We’re here to help you move through it with greater ease, comfort, and confidence.
