Terrace Clinic

Terrace Clinic Terrace Clinic is an AGPAL accredited practice. This clinic would provide a spacious yet warm and welcoming environment to all that entered.

Terrace Clinic came about as an idea between Dr George Pillay and Dr Andrew Jeyaprakash, our principal founders back in November 2004 who envisioned a new clinic to be purpose built adjacent from the Port Pirie Regional Health Service. We moved into our temporary clinic and were joined by Dr Santhosh Vellaiah-Retnaswamy, until the construction of our purpose built premises became a reality in May 2006.

This is Cola... she can dish out many oral health complications if you're not careful. ⚠
One 375ml can of cola can contain up to 10 teaspoons of sugar!
The high sugar content plus acidic properties in soft drinks, can create a tragic recipe for decay, and enamel weakening to occur (which does not sound delicious).
We recommend drinking soft drinks sparingly to reduce your risk of tooth decay and erosion, and next time you're thirsty, reach for the classic water instead. ✔

Sinusitis is when the hollow spaces behind the eyes, nose, forehead and cheeks become inflamed.
This can make it difficult to breathe through your nose, smell properly, or cause pain and pressure in your face.
Sinusitis is usually caused by a viral infection, or by a bacterial infection that develops after a viral infection.
Steam inhalations, saline nasal sprays, and pain relief medicines can help clear your sinuses.
If you're experiencing frequent episodes of sinusitis, speak to a health professional.

Did you know hands spread 80% of common infectious diseases?
Touching your nose, mouth, eyes or any broken skin with unwashed hands can transfer the germs into your body.
You’re much less likely to spread germs and infect yourself or others by washing your hands regularly and thoroughly.

There is no single cause for any one heart condition, but there are risk factors that increase your chance of developing one.
What you eat, how much you move, and whether you smoke can have a big impact on your heart.
Some risk factors for heart disease are beyond your control, like your age, gender, and family history.
That’s why it’s important to get a heart health check with your GP to understand your risk of heart disease and what you can do to prevent it.

Did you know at least 47,300 people in South Australia are living with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)?
Common COPD symptoms include:
• shortness of breath
• a cough that doesn’t get better
• regularly coughing up mucus (phlegm)
• feeling more tired than usual
• frequent chest infections.
While it cannot be cured, COPD is highly preventable and manageable.

We would like to introduce you to the pets of Terrace Clinic and show you proof that therapy sometimes has four legs and a wagging tail 🐶🐱

Pets don’t just steal your spot on the couch. They can boost your mental health too.

From helping you unwind to giving you a reason to get up and out each day, pets can:
- Reduce stress and help you feel calmer
- Provide companionship and unconditional love
- Help ease feelings of loneliness or isolation
- Create routine and a sense of purpose
- Encourage physical activity — hello walks and fresh air

The amount of time you spend on your screen can build up without you realising it.
If you find that your relationships, mood, studies, or work are being impacted by your screen use, then it might be useful to talk with someone you trust.
This could be a parent, teacher, school counsellor, family member, Elder, or friend.
These simple habits can help if your screen time has become out of balance:
✔️ not checking your phone first thing in the morning
✔️ enabling ‘Do Not Disturb’ when you need to focus
✔️ making mealtime screen free
✔️ setting time limits on distracting apps
✔️ charging your device outside of your room

Life’s worries can easily weigh you down, we’ve all been there! If you start to feel overwhelmed, it’s okay to pause and take a breather 👋
Stress doesn’t just affect your mind it can show up in your body too, with changes in mood, sleep, appetite and headaches.
Simple things like slow breathing, stretching or a quick walk can help you better manage the day-to-day stresses of life 🫶
