As usual, there are lots of things happening. This year we are focusing on several things: expanding our service locations and hours, adding new services, increasing the skill levels of our current staff and practitioners, and beginning a series of educational programs (free to our patients) on all sorts of topics. We will be teaming up with others, kicking off with a combined effort with Sure EyeCare: “Screenagers & Zombabies. More Green Time & Less Screen Time”. This talk will be focused on the increasing eyesight and postural problems seen by Chiropractors and Optometrists, and what can be done to reduce the negative impact caused by increasing time spend on iDevices. Read below for more information.
NEWS
Our New Clinic in Wyong
We are now open in Wyong! This is great news for the nearly 1000 patients on our books who come from the Northern end of the Central Coast. Our Chiropractors Dr Angus and Dr Bryce are already seeing patients! Bryce is available in Wyong on Monday and Friday, while Angus is available Wednesday. We have been joined by Riverside Podiatry on Thursdays and we will be offering Dietitian services from May.
Our Wyong clinic is situated within the Wyong Reliance Medical Practice at 9c/1-10 Amy Close, Wyong. If you can’t find it, just search for Reliance Medical Practice, Wyong. It’s opposite the Wyong Golf Club, and right next to the Discount Chemist.
Riverside BodyScan News
Riverside BodyScan is excited to announce that our very own health & wellness coach Leanne Faimalie is now our lead DEXA Body Composition Technician. If you come in for a scan during the week you will more than likely be seeing Leanne for your scan. Leanne has a wealth of knowledge in the area of fitness, wellness and health promotion. Nicole Saliba and Ellie Fowler, our resident Dietitians and Sport Nutritionists, continue to offer their outstanding DEXA results consultations and are able to assist clients with whatever their goal is, whether it’s gaining lean mass, losing that pesky extra fat mass, or just a healthy-eating tune-up.
We are also very excited to announce that we now offer regular weekend scans, every second Saturday. If you would like to experience a body composition scan, or if you are ready to track your progress since your last scan, please call the girls at our reception on 4323 9200.
Welcome Riverside Podiatry & Bradley Moodie
In January, we welcomed Riverside Podiatry and Brad Moodie to our services. We are so happy to be able to offer Podiatry within our integrative clinic, and we are very lucky to have Brad as part of our team!

Brad looks after a range of conditions in the foot and leg such as plantar fasciitis (heel pain and heel spurs), orthotics, fungal infections, painful ingrown toenails, skin conditions, strains/sprains and pains, as well as sports podiatry and orthotics. He also assess
