Behind the scenes at Hazel Grove Health 👀

With all the lovely new followers recently, I thought I’d introduce myself and give you a slightly more realistic version of me 😄

A few random facts:

I love being outdoors — whether it’s a peaceful walk in the woods or enthusiastically choosing to walk up a hill in South Shropshire and questioning my life choices halfway up. But the views are always worth it… eventually!

I used to be into multi-terrain running (yes, even in famously mountainous Cambridgeshire… aka flat as a pancake). These days, my slightly grumbly knees have politely suggested I reconsider — so now it’s PT sessions all the way: strength, HIIT, endurance… and a lot of “why did I agree to this?” moments.

The upside? This time of year I can do it all in the garden and pretend I’m in a fitness ad 🌿

And as many of you already know… I am that cat person 🐾 Not just “likes cats” — full-on mad cat lady. They are my babies.
You’ll often find me cuddling one, and occasionally (true story) one has attempted to join a treatment session uninvited. Clearly thinks they’re part of the team.

👩‍💻About my work:

I genuinely love what I do — helping people get back to doing what they love (without wincing every five minutes).🧡

There’s no conveyor belt treatment here — no “one-size-fits-all” plans. Because, quite frankly, we’re not all built the same.

Your treatment might include hands-on therapy, acupuncture, K-laser, and exercises that actually make sense for your life (not just something I’ve printed off and hoped for the best).🙌

And yes, I will probably ask about your life — but only because it genuinely helps me understand what matters to you… and gets better results (not just because I’m nosy, promise).

✨Top tip for your health:

Invest in your health now — your future self will be grateful.

Strength, mobility, and balance aren’t just “nice to have” — they’re what keep you moving well, feeling confident, and not making strange noises every time you stand up.🤗

And Finally….

Favourite sandwich: cheese and beetroot 🥪

Not consumed at work, after one too many “beetroot incidents” involving a white top…🤣

These are the things I see most weeks.
The subtle patterns that remind me why I do this work the way I do. ✨

A lot of people walk in worried they shouldn’t be here, or that they’ve left it too long, or that what they’re feeling isn’t ‘bad enough’ to need help.

🤩There isn’t a threshold for GOOD CARE. It’s about being heard, feeling safe, and getting the support that helps your body settle.🤩

If you’re unsure, it’s always okay to ask. Send me a message and we’ll talk it through.👍

It always makes my day to hear from my clients, and it’s fantastic to witness the positive impact the treatment programme has had on this lady’s life!❤️

✨No two people are the same, no one size fits all!✨

Thank you for sharing your experience.

It is much appreciated and very humbling.

I am always so grateful to receive feedback like this.

This is what working with people is all about….. helping them to get the results they need.

I became an osteopath / acupuncturist because of a simple idea:

💡 “The body already knows how to heal itself.”

My job isn’t to force or “fix” your body. It’s to listen to what it’s doing, work out where things are getting stuck, or where somethings are not working properly and find out why so that I can help you achieve better function, better mobility and help restore balance so your body can do what it’s meant to do. 💚

Often that means some sort of hands on treatment, whether that be a range of manual therapy techniques, or acupuncture or even K laser.

Sometimes it may also mean giving lifestyle advice such as looking at ways to change what you do, find more ‘me’ time or take up a different form of exercise or hobby.

Or it may mean that we need to look at a form of rehab to help you maintain mobility, or to get you to change a movement pattern that is not working in your best interests and facilitate you in finding a better way forward.

Sometimes it means saying, “this needs a bit more support than my hands can give,” and suggesting you speak to their GP or another healthcare professional.

🙌Good care is about supporting you where you are at and helping you to reach your goal — knowing when to treat, or when to guide people towards the help they need.

Love this concept 🧡

Stop pushing harder at the gym. The fitness trend that is actually extending lives looks nothing like what you would expect.

It is called slow fitness. And it is quietly replacing the "no pain, no gain" mentality that has dominated exercise culture for decades.

Slow fitness is built around controlled strength work, mindful mobility, precision movements like Pilates, low-impact conditioning, and purposeful recovery. It is not about doing less. It is about doing smarter.

A 2025 systematic review and meta-analysis confirmed that progressive exercise training is highly effective for aging bodies. But here is the biological nuance: while your bones do require the mechanical stress of heavier, progressive lifting to maintain their density, your joints, your hormones, and your nervous system do not need to be punished every single day. They thrive under steady, intentional movement.

In my clinical experience, the patients who stay active into their 70s and 80s are rarely the ones who crushed themselves in the gym at 40. They are the ones who found movement they could sustain for decades.

Walking. Yoga. Bodyweight exercises. Gardening. Dancing.

Longevity does not reward the hardest workout. It rewards the one you will still be doing in 20 years.

The question is not "how hard can I push today?" It is "what movement can I love for life?"

What is your favorite form of slow fitness? Share below.

🚨 The Most Important Movement You Probably Never Learned 🚨

Everyone talks about squats, lunges, and crunches…�But there’s one movement that quietly makes all of them safer and more effective 👇

👉 The HIP HINGE

So what is it?
�It’s the simple (but powerful) act of bending at your hips while keeping your spine neutral.
�Think: picking something up off the floor, tying your shoes, or lifting your shopping bags.

It’s not just an exercise… it’s a lifelong movement skill.

💡 Why it matters (especially as we get older):

✔️ Protects your lower back�By teaching your glutes + hamstrings to take the load instead of your spine

✔️ Builds real-world strength�Helps you walk, climb stairs, and stand up with ease

✔️ Supports your knees�Better muscle engagement = less strain where you don’t want it

✔️ Keeps you independent�Everyday tasks become safer, smoother, and more confident

✔️ Improves posture & balance�A stronger “posterior chain” means better alignment and fewer falls.

💬 Bottom line:
�Master the hip hinge, and you’re not just training for the gym…
�You’re training for life.
