Q&A with Nic

What do you do in your downtime?
Catch up with friends, girls night and go paddle boarding.

What’s one thing most people don’t know about you?
I love playing darts.

What advice would you give to anyone starting their own fitness journey?
Keep at your goals, never give up! Lastly make yourself accountable, do what it takes. If that means having an accountability buddy, letting people know of your goals or hiring a trainer.

Did you know Dry Needling/Accupuncture is available from the Compass Allied Health team, located in our Allied Health Suites

Dry needling is a technique where a very fine needle is gently inserted into tight or painful muscles to release “knots” (trigger points). These tight spots can cause pain, stiffness, and reduced movement.

The goal? It help muscles relax, move better, and feel less painful.

Who can benefit?
• Athletes & active people
• Anyone with tight or stiff muscles
• Desk-related neck or back pain
• Headaches, sciatica, jaw pain (TMJ), or joint issues

Curious if dry needling is right for you? Get in touch with Compass Allied Health to book an initial consult with Jack (Giac).

⭐️ Swimming for a cause: Meet Clinton Hosie ⭐️

This February, PARC Aquatic Access member Clinton Hosie is taking on a new challenge – swimming 14km to raise funds for the Starlight Children’s Foundation as part of their Super Swim.

Every minute of every day, a child in Australia is admitted to hospital. Clinton is diving in to help bring joy, laughter, and comfort to sick kids when they need it most.

We love seeing you at PARC putting in the laps, Clinton – your dedication in and out of the pool is inspiring.

Good luck, have fun, and thank you for swimming for such an important cause!
