It's that time of the year!

It's that time of the year - that's right, winter! There is frost around, ice on your windscreen in the mornings, and sickness sweeping through schools and workplaces. This time of year it is important to protect not only ourselves from cold and flu, but also others around us. If you or your child are unwell, have a week off school/work and speech therapy to rest and recover, and to ensure it doesn't get passed around others. We want you guys to be feeling great and motivated for your sessions here!

Over at stuff.co.nz they have put up a great article with some advice for telling the difference between a sore throat and something worse. This can be a really important knowledge to have, as a sore throat can be "just a sore throat", but it could also indicate an infection that could lead to some serious health complications. Head to this link to have a read http://www.stuff.co.nz/life-style/well-good/teach-me/82046055/how-to-tell-the-difference-between-a-sore-throat-and-something-worse

In other clinic news, we have some great new assessments and resources on board that we have been collecting up over the last wee while! We are so excited to use them with our clients over the next few weeks :) That's all from me for now - keep warm and enjoy these beautiful winter days!
