Joel’s Birthday Blog

Why do you love Pilates?

I enjoy being able to strengthen and stretch out my body….. any chance to take off shoes is welcome!

I have had first hand experience with immediate relief.

What is the best thing about being a physiotherapist?

I enjoy the mental Challenge of problem solving with clients in a vulnerable situation, helping them understand whats going on ans what we can do to assist.

De – escalating someone who has thought the worst of their situation, Instilling in them optimism and confidence is a great outcome and good feeling.

Why work at Pottsville and Cabarita physio?

I have grow up in a small coastal village – I enjoy the friendly village feel. The vibe around town and in the clinic is fantastic.

Over the past 4 years I have watched the growth of the town with this and the advancements in technology, The Clinic at Cabarita has come into its own.

Best relaxation tip

To relax I enjoy Surfing and gardening. I also enjoy spending time with my wife and Chocolate Labrador Raz.

Our Fruit trees are pumping out the good stuff at the moment, when I get home I wander outside (after taking off my shoes!) and pick the fruit and enjoy. Its a great way to slow down and switch off after a full day.

Best lifestyle tip

Many people will know that I have been studying for my Masters in Physiotherapy, I have been practising during this time to take time out and have a surf or do something I love. If you are going to do post graduate study, my advice is to do it slowly, take your time.

Favourite activity

To go for a sunrise surf with friends.
 

Favourite recipe

My  Nachos and Tacos .. I cook – however I’m the only one who likes it!

A typical Sunday

An early morning surf, followed by a bike ride with my wife to go and have Mexican!.. I do this every day… except for the Mexican… So wonderful living and working in paradise!
