Foot pliability is essential for good balance. Keeping the feet mobile helps them stay responsive, which supports comfort and stability as you move.

If your feet feel stiff, gentle daily movement can really help. Ease into these exercises, move slowly, and work within what feels comfortable for you - they can even be done sitting down with a cuppa!☕🌿

We’re often asked whether back braces actually help.

Used occasionally they can be a helpful support - especially for tasks your body isn’t used to, like gardening, lifting, or long days on your feet.

The key is using a brace as support, not a long-term fix. Movement, strength, and posture still matter.

If you’re unsure what’s right for your back, we’re always happy to advise 🌿

A gentle reminder for desk work and phone use.
Try to keep your ears stacked over your shoulders, rather than drifting forwards. Small posture changes like this can make a big difference over time 🌿
