I'm a little bit different...
Some of you may know my journey, others maybe not.
In my career, I've been fortunate to work for 2 of the largest health care providers Nuffield Health and the NHS - CNWL.
I've been privileged to work with a vast array of clients with such varying needs.
Till this day, one of my greatest achievements is being part of this particular ladies journey and her battle with MS. We started our journey at the point where she was a few months on from losing feeling down the left side of her body. At then end of the year we worked together, she was able to walk un aided and on some really good days, was even able to jog! That year my team at Nuffield held a PT awards ceremony to celebrate and reward all of our clients. I put forward my nomination for this wonderful lady and she won PT client of the year 🏆. It was a little gesture for all her commitment, but meant soo much to her and also me.
Currently I apply my skill set at a mental health hospital within CNWL.
Day to day I am in a position to support patients make better physical health and nutritional changes to their lifestyle. For some patients, this is first time they've been able to focus and work on themselves.
A significant moment for me here was supporting a gentlemen lose weight so that he was able to tie his own shoes. I know, this is not a common 'fitness' goal most people have, but for this gentleman it meant gaining independence again.
I still thoroughly enjoyed supporting people to lose weight, get fitter, get stronger, it's still a big part of my day to day. I just wanted to highlight that being physically fit and healthy means something different to us all. We don't have to be the next fitness model or world's strongest man or women. But having optimal health, improving the quality of our lives and in some cases life expectancy, exercise can play a huge role.
You owe it to yourself to be healthy, so go out there and do it in whatever form you most enjoy.
