That's (almost) all folks. The building is empty. The board is up. The auction is set for March 15th at 2pm.
And Drs Robert and Amanda are formally retiring on March 27th. You'll find us at Inline Health Essendon on Tuesdays and Thursdays for six more weeks. After 40+ years practising together it's time to...hmm...read books, see the world, get that organic garden established, read more books, go for a walk, sort out the photographs, go to the gym, learn something new, and yes, read some more books.

👷‍♂️🧑‍🏭WELCOME TO WORKSPACE WEEK! 🧑‍💼👩‍⚕️

EveryBODY deserves to work in a safe and healthy environment. Whether you’re on-site, on the road, at a desk, on your feet or working from home, it’s essential to take steps to prevent work-related injuries which can cause Work-Related Musculoskeletal Disorders (WMSDs).

The Australian Chiropractors Association’s annual WorkSpace Week (21-27 October) aligns with Safe Work Month's ‘Musculoskeletal Injuries’ week to highlight WMSD prevention and benefits of early intervention to improve the spinal health and well-being of all Australian workers.

According to Safe Work Australia WMSDs are the leading work, health and safety issue impacting Australian workers in terms of cost and frequency with Deloitte finding they cost the Australian economy over $55billion annually across health, lost productivity and reduced quality of life.

Get moving and mobilise your body and team by joining the challenge to boost your workplace’s health and productivity.

A note from Lana, our TCM doctor.

Hi everyone
As you would have heard, either through email or me personally, I am taking a 12 month sabbatical from end of November to reevaluate and regroup after 17 years in this business and career.

But what does that mean for acupuncture and me?

I’ll still be working and treating for the months of September October and November this year, but then I will pause my AHPRA license as a registered acupuncturist and doctor of herbal medicine, and become a non practicing acupuncturist and doctor of herbal medicine for the 12 month sabbatical.

During these next 3 months I am not taking on new clients, I am able to refer you to other local practitioners with an accompanying referral letter. I have been trying to secure a short term lease at another venue, however nothing has been finalised as yet. I’ll also be offering a house call service only, that is I come to you (with pins and my equipment) at a mutually agreeable time. The cost for this will be based on standard consultation fees plus a travel fee, as distance travelled from the ascot vale clinic. My last day at the clinic is September 7 2024. House calls available from week beginning September 16. Please contact me via email tcm.dr@hotmail.com

I am very grateful for each of you that trusted me as we used ancient theories with modern science and research to find a better you. I am thankful for the patients that trusted me to treat their various ailments especially the women that trusted me to take part in their fertility and menstrual journeys, for the countless babies that were born, and the hot flushes extinguished, and I will always be humbled by the fact that 100% of my business came from word of mouth. Thank you and don’t forget to make time for you, practice self care and know that you ARE worth it.
