Why Buy Local Produce? 🌱🍎 Support your health + the planet!

✔️ Fresher = More Nutrients – Locally grown foods are picked at peak ripeness and packed with vitamins.
✔️ Fewer Chemicals – Less travel means less need for preservatives or packaging.
✔️ Supports Immunity – Eating in tune with your local environment boosts resilience.
✔️ Lowers Emissions – Cuts down food miles and CO₂ from transport.
✔️ Strengthens Communities – Keeps money in the hands of local farmers and producers.

Hey everyone,

Been awhile between posts and that has mostly been to the fact that we have been working hard on our next phase of business growth and are excited to confirm we will be opening up some more clinic time in a new clinic space at:

- 148 Smith Street, Collingwood

We will be commencing in this space on Mondays and Thursdays, with Wednesdays opening up in the hopeful near future dependent on therapist availability.

Just wanted to do a quick post about a sticking point I have seen this year in the health and wellness space.

Alot of people adopting the latest health trends, influencer lead interventions or even evidence-based literature and not getting the benefits from these interventions or strategies that they feel they should be.

There is no suprises here, the number one rule with health and wellness optimisation and treatment is that everyone is different and you can't simply just adopt something that has worked for someone else and expect the same results.

Not trying to put anyone off adopting any health positive behaviours here, just saying some nuance and individualisation is needed.

There is no way a post can tell you what that looks like, but engaging with a health practitioner can assist in guiding you towards your ideal or at least better health management plan.

Get in contact to see if we can assist in your physical rehabilitation or movement strategies today.

Stronger Joints, Smarter Movement 💪🏽✨
Your joints weren’t designed to thrive on high-intensity workouts — they need low-impact movement to build resilience, restore function, and reduce sheering forces across the joint surfaces. 🏃‍♂️➡️🚶‍♀️

When you engage in low-impact exercise like walking, swimming, cycling, or controlled bodyweight movements, you:
✔️ Strengthen connective tissue (ligaments & tendons need gentle loading to adapt)
✔️ Improve joint lubrication (motion nourishes cartilage & keeps joints mobile)
✔️ Enhance stability (slow, controlled movements activate deep stabilizers)
✔️ Reduce inflammation (lower-impact activity supports recovery & longevity)

🔹 Think of movement as medicine—but the right dose matters. If your only exercise is high-intensity, you might be missing out on foundational joint health that protects you long-term. Balance is key. ⚖️

How to incorporate more low-impact movement?
🌿 Start your day with a morning walk 🚶
🌊 Swap a HIIT session for a swim or yoga 🧘‍♂️
🦵 Focus on slow, controlled movements in strength training

Remember: Longevity in movement starts with sustainability. Build strong joints without breaking them down. 💯

What’s your favorite way to add low-impact movement into your routine? Drop it below! ⬇️✨

How are those New Year's Resolutions going?

Are you finding it difficult to implement new behaviour change or is change not even on your radar?

Showing up for yourselves is one of the hardest pursuits of being a human being and although we may have the best of intentions, our actions can regularly fail to achieve what we really desire.

Also, this is not designed to be a triggering post but more to get you thinking about how little actions, behaviours, thoughts and words can assist in setting down the foundations of achieving greatness.

In the turbulent times that we are currently witnessing, the saying " Health is Wealth" couldn't be any more important. Now, there isn't going to be any practical advice in this post but more a thought provocation.

How will you show up for yourself this year? What small and seemingly insignificant actions and behaviours will you change to follow your true purpose and desires.

Looking forward to growing together through 2025 and beyond to a happier, healthier and sustainable future.
