We are back! We hope everyone enjoyed the break with family, friends and the good weather! To kick off the year we wanted to remind you of all of our services. Be sure to email info@makingstrides.com.au if you would like to book massage, osteopathy, physiotherapy, hydrotherapy, group sessions or if you're interested in securing a session at the new centre in Ormeau!
Making Strides School of Facts 'n' Stuff is hitting the ground running with their education and entertainment. Stay tuned on Instagram, TikTok or Facebook for the most recent giggle and fact.

Osteopathy aims to alleviate pain, restore movement, and improve wellbeing through manual therapy. Contact Genny or Astrid at info@makingstrides.com.au to book your appointment today!
WELCOME STRIDES NORTH!
You may have seen the hype of the new additional centre on our social media and in your inbox over the holidays! The crew are very excited about the opening of Strides Ormeau in early 2023.
Although we may not have all the details to share yet, we can confirm:
- staff will work across both facilities
- similar equipment will be available (some even fresh newbies!)
- improved parking
- lots of space for activities!
Ensure you share with us where you would like to attend your sessions (Strides North or South or both) upon the opening in the early months of 2023. This will help us to share more information with you sooner! Email Genny and Astrid at info@makingstrides.com.au.
HYDRO HUMP-DAY
We will be reintroducing hydrotherapy into our regular schedule! Bookings will be available on Wednesday's at Miami Pool (Pizzey Park). This pool is both accessible and heated, and our trainers who have hydrotherapy in their secret list of skills, will be taking you through your sessions!
Let us know if you're interested in trading your joggers in for a pool session this summer by emailing info@makingstrides.com.au

"EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE" GALA
Tickets are selling out as the event of the year is closing in fast! You can purchase your tickets here or contact Genny at info@makingstrides.com.au to save your spot at the Strides tables. Please note, seats are very limited.
We are also opening the question to all, do you want to donate a prize to auction at the Gala? In previous years there has been restaurant vouchers, meat platters, wine gift packs, sight seeing and adventure packages, artwork, signed merchandise, holiday packages and many more. If you know of anyone or happy to help us raise money yourself by donating an item, please contact Clare at events@pcsrf.org.au.
FUZZY FOOD FACTS
This year Fuzzy is changing it up and going to share more than just some recipes she uses regularly. Having a few healthier alternative recipes up your sleeve is great, but having the knowledge to get creative and cook your own recipes at home is a more helpful tool. Each month this year, Fuzz is going to educate you about the basics of nutrition and how to ensure you're benefiting your training the most through complimentary nutrition.
First up Fuzz shares some great ideas and information about what food you should eat after training to assist the recovery of yours muscle and energy levels. This will get the ball rolling as we all return from holidays and Christmas pudding.
