If you love running, strength training isn’t optional — it’s part of your training.

This is one of the biggest game-changers I see for runners who keep getting niggles.

So many women tell me they thought these were just part of motherhood — something to accept and move on from.

The truth? They’re common, but they’re not something you have to live with.

Pelvic health support can make a huge difference, even years after having children.

Which one surprised you the most?
Or did you think all of them were normal?

Feel free to comment or DM — you’re not alone.

Back at the clinic after a really lovely Christmas, and wow… the return to routine has been a bit of a shock for all of us.
Cold, dark mornings aren’t helping, and the kids are definitely not enjoying being back at school.

Life feels busy in that full-on January way — work, ferrying children around, and a few weeks into marathon training now so the mileage is creeping up. Safe to say I’m feeling tired.

I keep reminding myself that this time of year the body wants to hibernate, so it’s okay to feel slower, heavier, and a bit flat. We’re not meant to be firing on all cylinders in the depths of winter.

The lighter days are coming though — the evenings will slowly start stretching out over the next couple of months, even if it doesn’t feel like it yet.
For now, taking it one week at a time feels enough.

If you’re feeling the same, you’re definitely not alone 🤍

January can come with a lot of pressure.
New goals, new routines, new expectations — often when energy is low and life already feels full.

If New Year’s resolutions don’t feel helpful for you, that’s okay.
Winter can be hard on our bodies and minds, and starting something new when it’s cold and dark isn’t always realistic.

Instead of “new year, new you”, perhaps this year is about a gentler intention.
Listening to your body.
Letting go of comparison.
Making choices that support you — without pressure or guilt.

We are past the shortest day, and there is more light coming, even if it doesn’t always feel like it yet.

However this year looks for you, I hope it brings what you need most 🤍

There’s something really special about Christmas with young children 🎄
The excitement over the tiniest things.
The magic they still believe in.
The way everything feels bigger, brighter and more joyful through their eyes.

Honestly… it might be even better than being a child at Christmas yourself.
Messy, noisy, chaotic — and completely magical ✨

Wishing everyone a Christmas filled with small moments that feel huge 🤍

Merry Christmas 🎄

That’s me wrapped up for Christmas now.
I’ll be back in clinic on 31st December, then off again until 7th January.

Wishing you all a very lovely Christmas — I hope it brings some rest, warmth and joy, whatever this season looks like for you.

✨ A quiet update from me ✨

As we head towards Christmas — a time that can feel joyful for some, but incredibly heavy for others — I wanted to share that I’ve completed additional training to support parents following pregnancy and infant loss.

Loss doesn’t pause for the festive season. And for many, this time of year can bring grief to the surface in a way that’s hard to put into words.

In my work as a women’s health physio, I’m committed to holding space for your physical recovery and the emotional weight that can come with it — with care, compassion and without pressure.

If you’re navigating this, you’re not alone. And if you ever need support that feels gentle, respectful and led at your pace, I’m here 🤍

Sending love to anyone for whom Christmas feels complicated this year.

If this resonates, you’re welcome to reach out privately.

Christmas is magical… but it can also be stressful — and your pelvic floor feels it too. 🎄💛

If you’ve noticed more tension, heaviness, leaking, urgency or even constipation this month, you are absolutely not alone. When life gets busy or emotional, our bodies shift into “fight or flight”, and the pelvic floor often tightens right along with us.

Here are a few simple ways to soften your body and your stress levels over the festive season:

✨ 1. Breathe low and slow
3 minutes of rib + belly breathing can calm your nervous system and help your pelvic floor relax.

✨ 2. Support your bowels
Water, fibre, a footstool and no straining. Christmas constipation is very real!

✨ 3. Protect your back when lifting
Exhale as you lift, keep the weight close, avoid twisting. Trees, children and shopping all count!

✨ 4. Add a 5-minute reset
Cat–cow, hip circles, gentle twists, then a long exhale. Perfect between school runs and wrapping presents.

✨ 5. Give yourself permission to rest
Less pressure. More boundaries. More softness. Your pelvic floor loves calm.

If you’re feeling pain, heaviness, leaking or discomfort, you don’t have to wait until January — support is always here. 💛

Save this for later + share with another woman who needs a calmer Christmas.
