Historical information
On Saturday the 28th of May 2005, the Arthritis Foundation of Victoria (AFV), incorporating Osteoporosis Victoria (OV), held a Fibromyalgia Seminar and Expo at the Melbourne Town Hall. The event was attended by more than 350 people. Presenters included rheumatologist, Dr Daniel Lewis, and Dr Craig Hassed from Monash University, who specialises in mind-body and integrative medicine. Also available on the day were 30 minute break-out sessions covering topics such as Feldenkrais, Food for Life (nutrition), Pain Management, Psychosocial Aspects, Relaxation, and Yoga. This photo depicts Natalie Savin & Gillian van der Drift on the stage during the seminar.
