It takes less than 20 seconds - but it makes a big difference to a small, local clinic like ours 💞

We hear from so many of you in person: “I saw your post!” But if no one engages, Facebook hides it not only from your feed, but from the rest of our community too.

If you love what we do, flick us a 👍🏽 or say hey.
Every little bit of awhi helps keep our clinic doors open 🫶

Thanks for keeping it local, Whangārei 🫶

This one move will greatly improve your walking. It doesn't fix everything but it fixes a lot!Start slow and deliberate and only speed it up when you think ...

Finally remembered to take photos 𝘣𝘦𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘦 treatment instead of cursing myself afterwards that it would’ve made a great post 😂

This client came in with 18 years of ongoing ankle pain - seen multiple therapists, tried all the things, and was told surgery (ankle fusion 😬) was the only option left.

We always consider that a last resort. Always.

She was struggling with pain at the front of her ankle and couldn’t properly lift her foot (aka dorsiflexion). At the start, she could only get her knee 2.5cm past her toes - after one session of shockwave therapy?
➡️ 𝟱.𝟱𝗖𝗠. That’s more than double the movement, and with way less pain!

Super exciting results - and this is exactly why shockwave is my go-to for stubborn, long-term injuries. Quick change, solid outcomes.

I'm excited to see where this one goes, if you (or someone you know) are in a similar situation, flick us a message or book in. These are the cases that made me want to be an osteopath.

Shoulder, shoulders, shoulders. Not only to they give patients nightmares, but often practioners too!

My #1 rules is get motion back into them. Then they're on the road to improvement. However this is easier said than done, a lot of people struggle with what to do, or how to do it. Here's a couple of easy cheats to try and trick that should back into moving!

Can’t get in to see me, but still need an osteo?
Lucky for you, I’ve handpicked a team that are just as good.

Booking in with one of the other guys helps keep this place ticking - and gets you started on your hauora journey sooner! ✨🙌🏼

Same quality care, probably slightly more appropriate stories - but equally good banter 👌🏼

Still working on that Shrek Crocs conversion though 😭

Truly disappointing when we go up and beyond to help some people. Then for some reason I'll never understand they lash out.

I've seen this time and again in all industries for front of house, and it really needs to change.

🏡 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝘀 𝗮 𝘀𝗮𝗳𝗲 𝘀𝗽𝗮𝗰𝗲 where we welcome open discussions, questions, and even frustrations - but abuse in any form will not be tolerated. Let’s keep our space a place of care, for both our clients and our team.

📢 𝗟𝗲𝘁’𝘀 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗱𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀, 𝗮𝗹𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀 - and If you have a concern, we are more than happy to kōrero in a way that uplifts and work towards a resolution.
