Adrian is the ultimate “go to” man when in need of some friendly advice, whether it is in regards to an injury, career path, a personal situation or simply his footy tips for the weekend. Nothing puts a bigger smile on Adrian’s face than seeing his old clients in the reception area and having a quick catch up, it definitely makes all of the hard work and long hours, WORTH IT! ________________________ Shivam Prakash, Clinical Service Co-ordinator (Senior Physio) (Wednesday 6.20pm – Muscles in Motion Class Leader) Shiv is Back in Motion, Wantirna South’s most experienced treating Physiotherapist.
