Whole Woman Physio

15/08/2021

Hi All.
Hoping everyone is getting by okay in these crazy crazy times.
Letting you all know that I have very limited bookings during this lockdown period and will only be seeing clients via telehealth.
I understand this is not ideal and won't work for everyone. If you are needing to see a physio face to face, please let me know and I can direct you to some fantastic colleagues through the mountains.

We are all needing to do our own risk assessments when it comes to work and family life at the moment. As well as working within the rules and recommendations from Government and professional bodies.

These are not easy times.
Stay safe.
Get vaccinated if you are able to.
Reach out for support.

Thank you Lyz Evans for some great evidence based info to help women make informed decisions around vaccination. Please read all the info below.

They found there to be an average of 13.5:1 cost benefit ratio!!! HUGE!! see the info graphic below for more details.
