Even our own team takes time to get on the table! 💆‍♀️

Here’s our Clinic Manager, Elyse, having a session to ease her upper back, shoulder and neck tension — a reminder that we all need a little maintenance from time to time.

At AAC, we look after our own so we can continue supporting our community in feeling their best! 🌸
