New Direction
For years Vicki and Clive have been working side by side in their own practices, first of all at Paddington and now in leafy Chapel Hill. During that time they have assisted a variety of clients from all walks of life and from all over Brisbane and surrounding areas. There are even a few out-of-towners who book themselves in for a check-up when they are visiting.
At last they have joined forces to become Powell Natural Therapies. This partnership acknowledges the complementary nature of their natural healing practices. Vicki and Clive believe that when clients are actively involved in designing their own health plan much better results are achieved. They take a collaborative approach to your health issues.
Clive mostly treats the body systems to assist the proper functioning of the whole person and Vicki aligns the structural so everything works more easily and efficiently in a pain- free manner.

Introducing the Therapists
Clive Powell has been a qualified Acupuncturist, Naturopath & Homeopath for over 18 years. His training in all three disciplines gives him a broad knowledge and deeper perspective of all health issues.
For over 7 years Clive taught Homeopathy, Naturopathy and Iris diagnosis at the Australian College of Natural Medicine in Brisbane.
A detailed history is taken by Clive, from each client to determine any pre-disposing health factors that may be contributing to the current health problem.
A sophisticated computer program is used to search for the exact remedy and the best method of treatment to ensure success for each and every client.
Vicki Powell first trained as a nurse and followed that profession for nearly 30 years until injuring herself at work. She commenced training in Ortho-Bionomy in 1997 and has completed both a Basic and Senior Practitioner Training Programs of Ortho-Bionomy.
Many clients are surprised at how gentle and relaxing the sessions of Ortho-Bionomy are. The most amazing aspect of the treatment is the effectiveness of the work with the "pain and stiffness just disappearing " during the session.
Recently Vicki has been contracted by the Department of Veterans Affairs to facilitate workshops for Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and F1-11 De-Seal Re-Seal Servicemen and their families.

FLU SEASON
The approach of Winter brings the cold and flu season back again. Each year they seem to be worse and harder to resolve. The reason for this is uncertain but many authorities believe it to be related to the massive over prescription of antibiotics, often for viral conditions where they have no action. The antibiotics are in the food chain as well being used to fatten chicken and beef stock leading to an even greater load on the body. There is considerable evidence that the over exposure to these substances weakens the immune system over time.
Homeopathy is extremely effective in treating colds and flu, often resolving the problem in 24-36 hours and not leaving the patient with a long-term exhausted feeling. The immune system is also strengthened, not weakened, so the likelihood of a second dose is much less likely.

WEBSITE
After several years of resisting the "Web" we have decided to have a presence on the Internet. On our website you can find interesting articles on many health related subjects such as Hormones and ADD. Sometimes it is hard to find relevant material when trawling through Libraries and the Internet, hopefully you will find this resource useful and keep returning to view what has been added as it will continue to grow. www.powelltherapies.com

"HEALTH-CARE" SYSTEM
In China the Physicians used to travel through the villages maintaining the health of their patients with dietary and lifestyle advice, herbs and acupuncture, The villagers paid the physician while they were well and stopped paying him if they got sick. How would our current "health-care" system look today if it operated on the same principles? Would we have the same number of prescriptions written or elective surgeries performed?

HELP FOR SCOLIOSIS
Scoliosis is an "incurable" disease involving a curvature of the spine. It generally effects more women then men and is commonly known as hunchback. The medical model treats this painful disorder with physiotherapy, surgery and back bracing.
With the gentle movements and home care exercises of Ortho-Bionomy the spine begins to straighten and the hips and leg length become balanced. The process is simple, gentle and has visible results. It also resolves back, knee, shoulder and rib pain experienced by these clients.
Recently a young man was referred with scoliosis that was causing him back, knee, foot and shoulder pain. He was also very weak in his upper body, which was a handicap at work where he does a lot of overhead lifting. After only 4 sessions of Ortho-Bionomy he visited his parents whom he had not seen for several weeks. They were amazed and delighted to see his shoulder and hip height were almost equal and he walked smoothly.
