SUPPORT DURING COVID - 19
Alert Level 2
The clinic may now operate in a more normal fashion. Please ensure you are punctual, wash your hands and observe physical distancing in the waiting areas. The clinic will be observing Covid – 19 protocols where necessary. You may now book in online but please consider the following:
Do you answer “YES” to any of the following questions:
- Have you or someone in your household returned from abroad in the last 14 days?
- Do you have any of these symptoms: sore throat, cough, tight chest, runny nose, and headache, loss of sense of smell, temperature or are feeling unwell in any way?
- Have you been in contact with anyone who has any of the above symptoms?
- Have you been asked to self-isolate? Or is there someone in your house hold self isolating?
If you answer “YES” to any of these questions, we ask you to remain at home. Please book a TELEHEALTH appointment with Liz instead who will guide you through this time.
Telehealth with Liz Stroud:
- Telehealth is video conferencing at its best on a secure platform developed for healthcare practitioners.
- It will never replace the benefits of face to face or hands on therapy but as an interim it will help us get through these challenging time.
- Telehealth has been around for a long time and is evidence based as a reliable model of rehabilitation for musculoskeletal conditions.
- Once you have made an appointment you will receive an email with a link to a telehealth video. At the time of the appointment you just click on the link and the video will open with me on the other side. If you are a new patient I will send you a form to fill in and if it is covered by ACC I will also send you a form.
- Like a normal osteopathic appointment we will talk about your health. I will ask you to point to the pain, I may ask you to show me your range of movement, which is why wearing active wear or shorts can be helpful. Also having space to move and a yoga matt or carpet for added comfort would be beneficial.
- The treatment will be a series of movements, stretches, exercises, directed muscle release techniques and advise.
- I will send you an email with advice on stretching and an exercise plan and together we can get through Covid-19 restrictions in the comfort of our own homes.
- If this sounds like something you would be interested in, Telehealth appointments are available to book online here or you can contact Liz directly [email protected].
If you have an injury, back or neck pain, headaches, or a chronic health problem such as asthma; Kelly, Alf, Brian Liz, Jim, Andre and Bronwyn can help restore you to health.
We’ll identify and treat the cause of your problems, rather than just focus on the symptoms.
We use a variety of techniques and are known for getting fast results.
