Why seating matters more than you think

Our team recently took part in an OT training session with Seating Matters, deepening our understanding of how the right seating can support comfort, safety, and overall wellbeing.

Seating isn’t just about sitting, it plays an important role in everyday function.

The right support can help with:

✔️ Posture and alignment
✔️ Comfort for longer periods
✔️ Safer swallowing and breathing
✔️ Pressure care and skin protection
✔️ Greater independence in daily activities

At MET Phys, we’re always learning and refining our approach so we can provide care that is practical, personalised, and meaningful for each individual.

Because sometimes, small changes - like the right seat - can make a big difference.

Quick responses can support everyday safety and reduce fall risk.

Gentle, guided movements help improve stability and body awareness.

Understanding swallowing support (dysphagia)

Swallowing is something many of us don’t think about, until it becomes difficult.

Dysphagia is a term used to describe difficulty with swallowing, which can affect how safely a person eats or drinks.

That’s where a swallowing assessment can help.

It looks at how a person swallows food and fluids, helping identify the safest and most comfortable ways to eat and drink.

👉 What are thickened fluids?

In some cases, drinks may be thickened to slow down how quickly they move.

This can help make swallowing safer and easier to control, reducing the risk of choking or food/drink going down the wrong way.

👉 How are they used?

Thickened fluids are recommended based on individual needs and are often used as part of a personalised care plan following a swallowing assessment.

At MET Phys, we focus on providing practical, supportive strategies that help people feel more confident and safe during everyday activities like eating and drinking.

If you have questions or would like to learn more, our team is here to help.

You might be wondering, “What do people actually do in LEGO® Serious Play®?”

Here’s a peek:

✅ Each person receives LEGO bricks and builds a model based on a question or theme.
✅ Everyone shares their model and explains what it represents.
✅ The facilitator guides reflection and discussion.
✅ Models are adapted and connected to explore ideas, solutions, or goals.

It’s hands-on, reflective, and collaborative. There’s no right or wrong, just a space to express yourself, learn from others, and gain new insights.

For our veterans and DVA clients, life after service can bring lots of changes and challenges. Sometimes it’s hard to put your experiences, thoughts, or goals into words.

That’s where LEGO® Serious Play® comes in.

It helps participants:
✅ Express ideas visually through LEGO models
✅ Work through transitions, identity, and wellbeing
✅ Engage in a supportive, structured group

Because sometimes building a model is easier and less stressful, than trying to explain everything verbally.

It’s not just about the bricks, it’s about helping you reflect, communicate, and set goals in a safe space.

CTA: Term 2 starts 21st April, our 9:30–11:30 am small group for DVA clients has just 4 spots. Express your interest now to secure a place!
