Royal Rehab LifeWorks Cairns

The Royal Rehab LifeWorks Cairns team had a great time connecting with the community at Carnival on Collins this past Sunday. It was wonderful to meet so many people and share information about our new health and wellbeing programs.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by. We look forward to seeing you all again.

Today marks one year since we opened our doors at Royal Rehab LifeWorks Cairns!

It's been an incredible year of introducing high-quality allied health services to Cairns and the surrounding community. Thanks to the positive response, it's been exciting to expand our offering to include health and wellbeing services.

We’re extremely proud of our team and appreciative of the support from our clients and referrers. Here’s to the year ahead!

This week is Speech Pathology Week and we wanted to highlight the essential role of speech pathologists, particularly within our services at Royal Rehab LifeWorks. Our dedicated team is committed to supporting and enhancing communication for all individuals.

Communication takes many forms—spoken, signed, digital, or written. It’s more than just words; it bridges gaps, fosters understanding, and builds meaningful connections. Everyone communicates differently, and our goal is to help each person express themselves in their unique way.

In Australia, approximately 1.2 million people have communication support needs. Our speech pathologists are here to ensure that every voice is heard, and every message is conveyed.

Let’s celebrate the incredible work of our speech pathologists and the impact they make every day.

Come and visit our stall at the CDN on 27th.

It was fantastic to be part of the Tanks Cairns Markets today. It was our first time at the markets, and we had a great time talking to people in the community about their health and wellbeing and undertaking free health checks.

We look forward to seeing you all next time.

National Pain Week is Australia’s annual event dedicated to raising awareness about chronic pain. It takes place during the last week of July each year, and in 2024, it will run from July 22nd to July 28th. With 3.6 million Australians living with chronic pain, Royal Rehab LifeWorks Cairns acknowledges the challenges they face and the barriers they encounter. Chronic pain often leads to a cycle of stigma, isolation, and mental health challenges.

Let us break this cycle and advocate for all Australians living with chronic pain to receive Triple AAA standards of care: Awareness, Accessibility, and Affordability.

At Royal Rehab LifeWorks Cairns, we are uniquely positioned to offer a multi-disciplinary approach, including physiotherapy, psychology, hydrotherapy, and clinician led exercise classes for people living with chronic pain. Our specialised teams provide comprehensive care and education to those who need support.

Let's empower those with chronic pain to break free from silence and fear. Together, we can transform lives and build a supportive community.

When you visit us at Royal Rehab LifeWorks Cairns you can be sure to receive a warm welcome and experienced, caring staff who listen to you and put together activities to help you improve and reach your goals - whether in speech, mental health, exercise, daily living or independence.

🔸 Physiotherapy

This month, we are proud to recognise NAIDOC Week – a time to celebrate the history, culture, and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. NAIDOC Week not only highlights the rich heritage of Australia’s First Nations people, but also serves as a reminder of their ongoing contributions to society. This year, the theme is ‘Keep the Fire Burning! Blak, Loud and Proud’ – which is about the celebrating the endurance and resilience of Indigenous people and culture.

At Royal Rehab LifeWorks Cairns, we acknowledge the importance of cultural diversity and inclusivity. This NAIDOC Week, we encourage everyone to take part in events and activities that promote understanding and respect for Indigenous cultures. It’s a time to learn, reflect, and celebrate the stories and traditions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities.
