Tarneit Chiropractic Story …
From Dream to Reality: The Birth of Meridian Chiropractic. Welcome to Meridian Chiropractic.
This first blog post offers a glimpse into the journey that led to our doors opening in September 2019.
The Seed is Sown:
The saying “experience is the best teacher” rings true. Since my graduation in 2015, working at various clinics exposed me to valuable approaches to chiropractic care. However, it also revealed areas for improvement, which became the foundation for our first clinic named ‘Tarneit Chiropractic and Sports Clinic’. It was about creating a space aligned with my vision of delivering the best possible chiropractic care to patients.Taking the Leap:
Starting a business from scratch is daunting. Questions like “Where do I begin?” and “Am I doing this right?” swirl in your mind. Back in 2017, owning a clinic seemed like a distant future. But things have a way of changing quickly.
The Vision Takes Shape:
By January 2018, the idea of ‘Tarneit Chiropractic and Sports Clinic’ was blossoming. During breaks between appointments, the idea of establishing my own clinic, built on the principles I believed in, kept recurring. It was time to act on these persistent thoughts.Opportunity Knocks:
March 2018 brought an unexpected turn. My role at the existing clinic ended, coinciding with a new opportunity in Gippsland. During this transition, I identified Tarneit as the ideal location for my practice. My goal was to become the most trusted local chiropractor for the community.
From Paper to Progress:
A plan was drafted, a draftsman consulted, and the layout was submitted for approval. February 2019 brought a sigh of relief- the plans, after some initial revisions, were finally approved! The real work could begin.Building the Dream:
Driven by a sense of achievement, we decided to do the renovations ourselves. Our weekends were spent transforming the space. With the help of a skilled carpenter friend, we laid flooring, built bulkheads, plastered and painted walls, and even installed carpet and floating floorboards. While we had professionals for installing the glass doors and A/C unit, the core of the work was a collaborative effort. Even with challenges and long days, our dreams propelled us forward.
From Thought to Reality:
September 2019 marked the culmination of this journey. The renovations were complete, and Tarneit Chiropractic & Sports Clinic proudly opened its doors!
The Second Step: Meridian Chiropractic and Sports
The Year 2024 marked the opening of Meridian Chiropractic, a second location serving the communities of Wantirna, Bayswater, Boronia, Vermont, Ringwood, Wantirna South, and the surrounding areas.
This opportunity was perfect, and as with our first location, was also just a thought that may be a reality one day. When this opportunity arose, I jumped on it thinking if not now, then when!? We open our doors with genuine care, and desire to help and serve all those who require it!
