About Us

PBworks is an independent Australian publishing site about health, wellbeing, and education.

We write for everyday readers who want clearer language, better context, and fewer confusing claims. We are curious people who like learning, not a medical service and not a substitute for professional care.

What PBworks Is

PBworks publishes plain-language articles that explain common topics people search for, including fitness, nutrition, wellbeing, healthcare careers, and study pathways. We aim to make public information easier to understand and easier to compare.

PBworks developed from earlier educational material produced under the name Performance Body Works. The publication now operates as an independent informational website covering everyday health, habits, and life experiences for general readers.

What PBworks Is Not

PBworks is not a clinic, hospital, helpline, or medical provider. Our content is general information. It is not designed to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent disease, and it is not written as personal medical advice.

How We Approach Health-Adjacent Topics

When we cover health topics, we treat them as public knowledge topics. That means we focus on general explanations, risk context, and what reputable organisations say, rather than telling readers what to do about their own symptoms.

Where relevant, we reference established public sources such as government health pages, professional bodies, university material, and peer-reviewed research. We prefer sources that readers can verify for themselves.

Editorial Principles

• Clarity over cleverness. We write in straightforward language and define terms that are often misunderstood.
• Reader-first framing. We avoid sensationalism and avoid overstating certainty where evidence is mixed.
• Separation of roles. Our role is explanation and context. A clinician’s role is individual assessment and treatment.
• Continuous improvement. We update pages when key facts, guidelines, or course information changes.

Corrections and Feedback

If you spot something outdated or unclear, we appreciate hearing about it. We review genuine corrections and update pages where appropriate, including clarifying wording that could be misread as personal advice.

Supported by Unicurve

PBworks is supported by Unicurve, an Australian digital publishing company founded by Dr Andrew Lancaster. Unicurve provides the publishing infrastructure and editorial systems that help keep content consistent, readable, and well-maintained across topics.

Support from Unicurve does not turn PBworks into a medical authority. It means the site is operated as a structured publication with editorial standards, content maintenance, and clear accountability.

Our Aim

We want PBworks to feel like a helpful reference point. Not a textbook. Not a clinic. Just a well-organised place where readers can understand a topic faster, ask better questions, and navigate the wider world of health and education information with more confidence.
