2026 has already delivered some big team milestones 🎉

⭐️ Kaitlin & Nick: 8 YEARS with us.

Kaitlin continues to help our patients stay steady on their feet, confident in their movement, and independent at home. Stay tuned for an exciting announcement on new services Kaitlin will be offering in 2026 👀

Nick is our lead physio and has built incredible rapport with a wide range of patients, supporting them every step of the way through their rehab, strengthening, and getting back to doing what they love.

⭐️ Hannah: 1 YEAR with us.

In this short amount of time Hannah has already made a massive impact. The way she has expanded the ONERO timetable in under a year is seriously impressive; from February we will have 15 ONERO classes per week and counting.

We’re incredibly grateful for a team that applies care and passion to their job every single day.

ONERO™ is a program designed for people with osteoporosis or osteopenia (low bone mineral density). The program is supervised weight and impact training which is brief but at a high intensity. The evidence-based program is designed to stimulate bone development and reduce the risk of osteoporotic fractures and falls.

⭐️ What does it involve?
Our physiotherapist Hannah first assesses the patient’s current health, DEXA (bone mineral density scan) and functional capacity + a follow-up lifting assessment prior to joining a class. If the patient is willing, Hannah can add them to the worldwide research data.

Your GP can provide you with a referral to have a DEXA scan at your local imaging company.

Following the assessments, the classes are completely supervised by Hannah with a maximum of 4 clients in each class.

Depending on the coverage per individual, this can be covered by
▪️Private Health Funds - for one on one assessments and classes
▪️Home Care Packages - for one on one assessments and classes
▪️DVA - for one on one assessments and classes
▪️GPCCMP referrals (formerly EPC) - only for one on one assessments as GPCCMPs do not cover any group sessions / classes.

The only ONERO clinic between Newcastle and Laurieton!

If you, or someone you know, are interested in joining our ONERO program, please call our admin team to find out more.
