One of our smaller visitors recently hopped on the treatment table with Roger for some work through his hip & leg - and apparently the experience met his very rigorous toddler standards 😂

Appointments with kids can look a little different to appointments with adults. Sometimes that means adapting what you're doing, working around wriggles and conversation, and generally meeting them where they're at on the day.

Roger Bull is one of our osteopaths here at Bank Street and has plenty of experience working with people at different ages and stages of life.

He's in clinic every Tuesday for both ACC and private osteopathy appointments.

One of the things you don't necessarily see when you come in for an appointment is how much learning happens outside the treatment room.

Our practitioners regularly spend time sharing techniques, talking through different approaches and learning alongside each other - and sometimes our friends from other local clinics too.

Recently our osteopath Roger, and Tessa, an osteopath from just down the road, had both been completed some interesting professional development. So we all got around the treatment table to learn from them, try things out, and take turns pretending to be the patient 😅

For us, this is one way we do kotahitanga in practice; different practitioners bring different knowledge and experience to the table, and there’s always something we can learn from each other and share with one another too.

Plus, the mean feed afterwards always helps 😋🍴

No emails. No “Muuuum”. No one asking what’s for dinner or where the thing is that is exactly where you told them it was.

Just an hour where your only job is to lie there.

Sounds pretty good, actually.

𝗙𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝘄𝗵𝗼 𝘀𝗮𝘆 “𝗶𝘁’𝘀 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗯𝗮𝗱”... But reversing the car now requires your shoulders, upper back and a decent rotation through the hips because your neck has decided it's not participating 🥲

We see you 😂

It's pretty easy to get used to stiffness when it creeps up slowly, especially when you can still technically do everything you need to do. You just find increasingly creative ways to do it instead.

If this is feeling suspiciously familiar, it might be time to give your neck a little attention.

Our little community library has had a few good reads pass through it lately, so we thought we’d show you some of what’s currently on the shelves.

The best part? You don’t need to be coming in for an appointment to use it.

If you’re passing our Bank Street clinic, stop for a nosey. Take a book that catches your eye, swap it for one you’ve finished, or drop off a few that are ready for their next home. We’ve got books for the little readers too.

No library card. No due dates. No judgement if you take three.
Just good books being passed between local people 💚
