Your bones are quietly supporting you every single day.

But are you supporting them?

Bone density naturally decreases over time and the habits you build now really matter.

The good news? You don’t need extreme workouts. You need consistency, smart movement and supportive habits.

I’ve written a short blog explaining why bone health matters and how you can start improving it today.

Head to the website to read the full article. Link in bio.

Have you ever been advised to think about your bone health?

Do you, or someone you know suffer with a chronic illness or mobility challenge e.g.: MS, scoliosis or a problem caused by an injury?

If so, have you ever considered visiting us at the studio?

I support a number of people in these situations who have tried a number of approaches to improve or support their mobility and the results they've been able to achieve here have been really impactful for them in their day to day life.

My studio is full of state of the art, full-motion, large scale Pilates equipment and I've got extensive experience as a PT as well as a Pilates instructor and sports massage therapist, meaning I can support you in a unique and powerful way. We also offer scar therapy massage to help minimise the impact of scarring on your comfort and movement.

If you'd like to chat drop me an email to info@feelgoodfitness.org or DM me with your or their name, contact details and some background info and we can talk about what you're looking to achieve and how I could help.

Wow!! You lovely lovely lot - I just had this message from Mandy 😄

A huge thank you to all those who recently donated to Bristol Rabbit & Friends - the total raised was £68.80 which is amazing! If anyone is ever interested in adopting or fostering ( rabbits, guinea pigs or hamsters ) do get in touch. We always have a long list of animals people want to surrender and we rely entirely on foster homes as a stepping stone to forever homes. Again a big thank you from the Charity and from me. X

Week 7 class is all done for you. Enjoy❤️
