Circle Of Life Chiropractic & Natural Therapies

30/06/2025

🌟 We’re Finalists! 🌟⁣
⁣
We can barely believe it… but Circle of Life Chiropractic and Natural Therapies has just been named a FINALIST in the Local Business Awards! 😭💫⁣
⁣
From one tiny treatment room in my home back in 2015 to now—a buzzing, purpose-built wellness centre with five powerhouse practitioners, four admin legends, and over 6,000 visits a year—we are just overflowing with pride (and maybe a few happy tears).⁣
⁣
This isn’t just a business—it’s a community movement. 💛 We’ve built something truly special: a clinic where families feel seen, where kids with complex needs are met with compassion and skill, where women are supported through all stages of life, and where healing goes far beyond the physical.⁣
⁣
We’re not here to do cookie-cutter care. We blend heart and science every single day—offering functional neurology, cranial work, women’s health physio, red light therapy, naturopathy, and more… all with a cup of tea, a toy for the kids, and a team who really cares.⁣
⁣
Our team is the secret sauce. Behind the scenes, we’re constantly learning, growing, laughing (and sometimes crying), leaning on each other, and showing up with everything we’ve got. This nomination belongs to every single one of us—and to the beautiful clients who trust us with their stories, their families, and their healing journeys.⁣
⁣
Thank you for seeing us. Thank you for celebrating us. And thank you for being part of this wild, beautiful ride.⁣
⁣
Here’s to redefining healthcare—with integrity, innovation, and a whole lot of heart. 💫

Health treats for the kids this Easter…. Or lunchboxes all year round?

Gelatin is beneficial for the gut, the skin, the joints and bones, the hair… need we go on? And kids generally love gummies! Add some magnesium rich cacao and we have a treat that’s healthy and fun!

Let us know if you like the look of these 😋

Our bodies have incredible power within them to heal.

We are either in a state of healing and growth, or illness and dis-ease.

Each day you choose what state your body is in, through what you eat, how you move and What you think.

Chiropractic adjustments directly impact your fight or flight response via your autonomic nervous system, allowing you to move into a state of ease, or recovery and healing.

‘In particular, they (spinal adjustments) may activate the parasympathetic system to counterbalance the activity of the sympathetic system (fight or flight).

https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8023121/

So make your adjustment a regular part of your life, just like the gym or your yoga class.

Each time you choose food, ask ‘will this move me towards healing?’

Each time there’s an emotional hiccup, don’t circle into negativity - reframe it positively. For example, a bunch of bills took all of your money? 💸 Don’t think ‘I have no money’. Instead reframe it as ‘I’m grateful I could cover all those bills’. Holding negative emotions will make you just as unwell as eating bad food. Let it go.

Talk to your Chiro at your next visit to get more understanding around healing from the inside out ✨

It’s Autumn - one of the best times of year (in our opinion!). Slowing down after a busy fun filled summer, but not quite retreating from the cold ☀️🍁

It’s a great time of year to reflect on how your year and your health goals are going.

Is there anything you should be doing to arm yourself and your family for winter? It might be simply fresh orange juice, or making an immune boosting tonic rich in turmeric and ginger, or it could be stocking up on vitamins - we live Bioceuticals Armaforce and Armaforce Junior (or the Pregnancy blend for the expectant mamas).

If you had big goals for 2025, do you have a game plan and are you on track? We love using the Eisenhower Matrix (google it ☺️) to work out the urgent and important stuff so you can tick off those critical jobs and start achieving.

Daylight savings also comes to an end, as clocks fall back an hour on Sunday April 6th. Prep your internal clock by going to bed a little earlier each day in the lead up to the change, it’ll soften the blow.

Finally, the change of season brings a change in seasonal foods - look to apples, pears, pomegranates, carrots, onions, leafy greens, sweet potato, beans and pumpkin as your staples.

Let us know if you’d like help with any of these areas 🍂

This is a sacred, beautiful, love-filled and most important of all FUN space for young girls to gather in circle to receive knowledge and tools to start their periods with ease, flow (pardon the pun!) and comfort.
 
The benefit of celebrating menarche as a rite of passage ripples out across whole lifetimes, and generations far into the future.

This week we say goodbye to our amazing chiropractic assistant, Ash. Ash joined us last year on Fridays so some of you may not have met her, but she’s been an absolute star and has helped behind the scenes a lot too.

Ash also owns and has now expanded to offer so will be leaving us to focus on her own projects. Whilst we will miss her, we are so excited for her and love what she has to offer local families.

Meals for mummas has been a favourite of ours for many years, so we can’t wait to watch the new addition of nourishable unfold.

Thanks Ash for your contribution, energy and organizational skills you brought to our team!
