We’re celebrating another trip around the sun for Slava today and since this guy doesn’t eat sugar, what says Happy Birthday better than a sirloin? Only downside? I don’t think he’s sharing 😋

Al Cabone is one lucky guy, he has a WATSU session booked today at Balance Physiotherapy. Looks like he’s ready to get into the warm 95C pool. Enjoy!

I think someone at the clinic has been having a bit too much fun with Al Cabone in the wee hours of the night. 😂

We love that our staff has passions outside of physiotherapy, it’s what makes them such interesting people. Vanessa is following one of her passions and changing directions altogether, moving into a new career in UX Design. We will miss you, your talent, your smile, your practical jokes, your snack delivery and basically everything that makes you you Vanessa! We all want to wish you luck in this new adventure!
