Dear patients,

It’s with a heavy heart that I tell you I’ll be closing the doors of Aether Health at the end of the year.

I have been offered an opportunity that I can not pass on!

This isn’t a decision I have made lightly, but taking it all into consideration it’s what is best for me and my family.

So, to all my patients Thank you!!
Thank you so much for making coming to work something to look forward to.
I was discussing with a patient the other day about work and the best way to describe it is catching up with all my friends. And I think that’s what I’m going to miss most; the Aether community.
I will truly miss you all.

Working at the Hub with all the girls and building a business here has been the dream.
I can’t imagine having done this without them. The smiles and hallway chats, the unwavering support and community feeling of the Hub is irreplaceable. Ellie and Britt have done a beautiful job creating a space where we can all thrive.
I will miss you all so much!

When one door closes, another will open!

With all my love
Jaci

What to expect after the appointment?

Most of the time you will walk out of your appointment feeling better. However it is not uncommon to have post-treatment tenderness and tiredness as we sometimes need to provoke the tissues to find the source of the pain or to create a healing response.

I like to think of this as ‘DOMS’ - delayed onset muscle soreness - that we experience at the gym all the time when you are pushing yourself and trying new exercises. It takes a while for your body to adjust.

This post treatment soreness should only last a day or two. If these symptoms persist please contact us! We are here to help and advise.

Here are some things to help you post treatment:

• drinking lots of water

• avoid strenuous exercise 24 hrs post treatment

• follow management advice from your health care professional

• getting a good night's sleep

• magnesium or arnica cream on the sore/treated muscles, heat packs or ice packs can help too.

What is involved in an Initial Appointment?

First of all thank you for booking in, we understand that finding a new clinic and meeting a new osteopath can be a huge step in your health journey.

The initial appointment is a longer consultation as we take the time to get to know you. We ask lots of questions to make sure we understand all aspects of your concern and dive into your past health history so we have a well rounded view of how you have gotten to where you are today.

After taking your case history, we will explain to you what assessment will need to be done and what treatment plan we believe will best suit you. Once you are fully informed and happy to proceed we start the assessment of your body.

An assessment will involve you following basic instructions so we can see what is moving well and what isn’t moving optimally. We analyse where the pain might be coming from and take a holistic view of the condition you are presenting with.

Then we start treatment. The treatment will be tailored to what your assessment has presented, with a goal of finding the root cause and not just treating the symptoms.

After the treatment we will explain more of the management plan; how long we believe it could take to feel 100%, what some of the barriers might be, how many appointments you might need and what you can do at home to help with the progress.

Throughout the whole of your consultation with the Osteopath you have autonomy over your body. We try our hardest to make sure you are comfortable at all times but if for whatever reason you have the control to withdraw your consent. This is your time.

What is Osteopathy?

At its core, Osteopathy is a manual therapy (similar to physio, Chiro or myo therapy) that assesses, treats and manages health complaints.

Osteopathic Medicine utilises many techniques to influence the systems of the body; Musculoskeletal, Fascial, Lymphatic, Neural, Circulatory, Respiratory and Visceral (to name a few). It is because of this holistic view of the body that we can get to the cause of your problem and not just treat symptoms.

Aether is founded on the following principles…

• The human being is a dynamic unit of function.

• The body possesses self-regulatory mechanisms that are self-healing in nature.

• Structure and function are interrelated at all levels.

• Rational treatment is based on these principles.

What do I bring to the appointment?

Not a lot is required for the appointment.

If you have any relevant scans or doctor letters, referrals or test results please bring them along, the more information the better. However, it is not required for us to be able to help you.

Wear loose fitting or flexible clothing, this will help us see the full range of your body.

Bring your Health Insurance card as you can claim on the spot and a bank card or cash to pay the gap.

✨Managment✨
Management of conditions is a core belief at Aether Health.

Treatment is only a small percentage of your care.

We dive into lifestyle changes, professional and ergonomic restructuring, prescribe exercise and stretching programs, looking into possible referrals for a multidisciplinary approach and collaborate with other health professionals.

At Aether Health we pride ourselves on digging deeper to really understand your condition and help you on your health journey.

After your initial appointment we will discuss with you a management plan.

This will include

Working Diagnosis: A professional opinion of what is happening in your body
Prognosis: How long we expect for you to feel 100% better
Goals: Your personal goal to aim for and keep us on track
What you can do at home: Exercises and stretches that will help your prognosis
Plan for review: When your next appointment will be, this includes expectation of upcoming appointments as well.

✨ Indirect osteopathy ✨
Indirect osteopathy, also known as Osteopathy in Craniosacral Field or Biodynamic Osteopathy, utilises a more subtle and refined approach to treatment.

A common analogy to describe this technique is by imagining you have a knot in a hair tie; the more you massage and stretch that knot, the tighter it gets! But if you slowly bring the ends of the hair tie together it is much easier to undo the knot. Finding ease rather than forcing tension.

All physical treatments, such as massage, cracking and joint mobilisation, aim to improve blood flow to enact healing. Indirect osteopathic techniques are no different in this respect.

It’s with this delicate approach of treatment, that Osteopaths can affect change in systems of the body, which allows us to treat complex cases and patients of all ages, from infants though to the elderly.

✨ Structural osteopathy ✨
Structural osteopathy is referring to the techniques we use to help your specific complaint. You may be quite familiar with some of these techniques, such as Soft tissue (massage), Articulation (joint movement), HVLA (joint cracking), MET (joint movement with patient resistance), Stretching, Dry needling, Cupping, Exercise prescription and so much more.

These types of techniques can address complaints within the muscles, joints, ligaments, visceral and lymphatic systems.

The aim of osteopathic manipulation/treatment is to relieve pain, tension and discomfort of symptoms while diving deeper to find the cause.
