Hold Onto Hope and Love!
I hold onto hope and love… I hold them close to my heart and soul — always.
This is our family’s story.
As someone who lived with infertility and secondary infertility for 10 very long years, my heart and soul go out to every woman experiencing infertility, subfertility, pregnancy loss, or the often-lonely journey of IVF.
Why share this story? Because today, we are counting our blessings as we celebrate our daughter Alexandra’s 2nd birthday — our sweet, sensitive, cuddly, pixie-girl miracle. Our little IVF blessing, who lights up our life and fills our hearts completely.
She completes our family. And when I look at this beautiful, mischievous toddler, I still can’t believe the journey we went through to have her in our lives.
Every single day I thank God, the Universe, and the unwavering love of our family and friends for our children.
Holding Onto Hope and Love: A Family’s Journey Through Infertility to Miracles
I count my blessings every day. Our journey to becoming parents of three beautiful children was nothing short of an emotional, decade-long rollercoaster.
Holding onto hope and love, Andrew and I always knew in our hearts that we were meant to have children. We are passionate about supporting and caring for families — and we knew we were meant to raise a family of our own.
As someone with autoimmune issues (and what I lovingly refer to as a “cranky uterus”), the road to motherhood was filled with challenge after challenge:
- 4 years of heartbreaking miscarriages — each one the loss of a much-loved baby
- 6 surgeries
- 2 years of IVF treatment
- 8 full IVF cycles
- Over 100 injections
- More than 40 blood tests
- 23 internal pelvic ultrasounds (aka the infamous “magic wand up your hoo-ha”)
- A total of 7896 hours in labour — yes, that’s 47 weeks of contractions every 10–20 minutes with no pain relief!
So why didn’t we give up?
Because the answer is simple: follow your heart.
We did. And just look at our children. Look at your children. Look at all children — they are love. They are hope. Hold them close. Always.
Happy Birthday, Alexandra! Hold onto hope and love, beautiful girl — forever and always.

LBHC supports your journey to better health through holistic and personalised treatment.
A chiropractor is a healthcare professional trained to assess, diagnose, and treat neurological, orthopaedic, and structural issues related to the spine, joints, muscles, and nervous system.
At Life Balance Health Centre in Padbury, our chiropractors use gentle, low-force techniques to help realign the spine, improve mobility, relieve pain, and support your body’s natural healing ability.
We focus on restoring brain-body communication through neurological and chiropractic care, treating the whole person — not just the symptoms.
We’ve cared for babies from 36 weeks to centenarians who’ve received letters from the Queen, supporting people of all ages and stages of life — from babies to grandparents, tradies, professionals, business owners, families, weekend warriors, and professional sportsmen.

Chiropractic care at LBHC is designed to support your entire well-being.
Our clients often experience relief from back and neck pain, headaches, sciatica, and postural issues.
But the benefits go beyond pain relief — improved spinal alignment enhances neurological communication, boosts energy levels, supports better sleep, and promotes overall health.
Because we use gentle, neurological, orthopaedic, and chiropractic techniques, care is suitable for everyone — from babies to grandparents, tradies, professionals, business owners, families, weekend warriors, and professional sportsmen.
We may refer you for X-rays or other imaging (like CT or MRI scans) when clinically necessary to get a full picture of your spinal and neurological health.
At LBHC, we use imaging responsibly — typically for adults with a history of trauma, chronic issues, or structural concerns.
Children rarely need imaging, thanks to our gentle, paediatric-based approach.
Safety, precision, and personalised care are always our priorities.
Poor posture is commonly linked to spinal imbalances and modern habits like extended sitting or screen use.
At LBHC, we use specific, neurological and orthopaedic assessments combined with gentle chiropractic adjustments to realign the spine and retrain postural patterns.
We also provide simple home exercises to help you maintain upright, healthy posture long-term.
With consistent care, clients often notice less tension, improved appearance, and greater ease in daily movement.
Yes — we accept most major private health funds and offer on-the-spot claims through HICAPS for your convenience.
Chiropractic care is usually included under extras cover, but rebates vary depending on your provider and level of cover.
Your first visit to LBHC is all about understanding your health holistically.
We’ll begin with a thorough neurological, orthopaedic, and chiropractic assessment to determine how best to support you.
For adults, this may include referrals for X-rays or imaging if needed.
We aim to create a calm, informative experience — and depending on your case, care may begin on the first or second visit.
You should allow about 40 minutes for this appointment.
The CKP™ Method — combining Chiropractic, Kinesiology, and Pilates — addresses the whole body, not just the symptoms.
It’s particularly effective for complex or chronic conditions where multiple systems are involved, including:
- TMJ (Jaw Dysfunction) – balancing the jaw, neck, and cranial system to relieve pressure, tension, and bite misalignment.
- Scoliosis – improving posture, symmetry, and muscle tone while reducing spinal tension and discomfort.
- Orthotics and Foot Alignment – assessing how foot structure affects balance, knees, hips, and spinal posture.
- Headaches and Migraines – reducing nerve irritation and restoring neurological balance.
- Pelvic or Core Weakness – restoring strength and function through targeted Pilates rehabilitation.
Every CKP™ program is tailored to your body’s structure and function.
We Align your body, Activate your muscles, and help you Adapt with stability and strength work inspired by Clinical Pilates.
