Doctor - Dr Patricia Bishop

I have been a massage therapist at Fitness on the Park since 2001 offering both remedial and sports massage.

I have been involved in athletics for 45 years and have been coaching for the past 15 years, specialising in middle distance and distance running. I am also a keen runner myself.

As a special offer for Fitness on the Park members I am offering your first half hour massage for only $20 (normally $30).

PETER ROWE - PHYSIOTHERAPIST

I have 21 years experience as a Physiotherapist, a great deal of that being in Aldgate in the Adelaide Hills. My key interests include active rehabilitation from injuries, sports injuries and postural awareness.

I am very excited to be starting sessions at Fitness on the Park. The advantage of being on site with a gym facility will be the integrating of alignment correction with a measure of fitness and strength to maintain it. I look forward to seeing you.
