So true isn't it 💛

30/11/2025

Bit of an update - - - sorry, it's a little medical 😳😷

November is finishing with just as bad as it started, so personally, I'm glad to see the back of it!

I have still got flu/covid/virus/ chesty/sinusitis symptoms, in fact not been good at all.

It is my birthday tomorrow and we'd booked to stay in Windermere, we have still come away, Charles & Cassie have had lovely walks out and taken some fab photos.
Russell my brother and his family were joing us on Saturday for 2 days and 1 party night 🥳, but they are all poorly with the same problems 😷, so they stayed at home.

I managed to go out to a lovely garden centre this afternoon just to get some fresh air, we picked up a few Christmas decorations and Cassie had loads of fusses 🐶

I doubt very much that therapies will go ahead next week as I don't see this disappearing that quickly. I really hope I am wrong!!

I have a doctors appointment tomorrow night to discuss existing issues and then with the hand clinic on Friday, where I can hopefully get booked in for a steroid injection🤞🏻

Take care

I'm sorry to say, that it has arrived 😷

Unfortunately all appointments for tomorrow will be cancelled too!

I wouldn't care but I only had my flipping covid & flu vaccinations last week 😳

Take care everyone and I'll keep you updated

Happy Monday and hello November 😍
Hope you all enjoyed Halloween 🎃

Sorry, but this is an All About Me post! 🙈

As you know over the past few weeks, I've struggled to do any reflexology. I did one client last week, just to see how I got on.

Based on that session, I am going to start again with limited appointments. I hate cancelling, so hopefully this will minimise it. I am waiting for some test results relating to inflammation and fatigue and I have a hand xray next week.

I was desperate, in pain and absolutely wiped out, I filled in a triage form online, listing absolutely everything and requesting to have an appointment with only one of two doctors. I got a GP appointment for 6.30pm a few days later. He was great, he listened, suggested and referred etc, explaining so much. I was there for just under an hour! I felt better just by talking about it and getting off my chest.

Don't be worried about contacting the GP surgeries and being specific about who you want to see. Sometimes you may have to wait a little.

Don't be bothered about listing everything, on their own, symptoms to you may not seem like anything, but combined with each other, they may lead to one thing.

The main thing is, speaking to the surgery in the right way or tone as you would to anyone really, filling out the triage form is a great way of doing it, you can write as much as you want and sometimes it's easier that speaking to someone.

There are a few slots available online for you to book or you can message me.

We also had some devastating news, my close cousin, only 2 years older aged 57, suddenly passed away on the 24th October 💔. We're just waiting on a funeral date 😢. Just shows how life can be whipped away in a second!

Take care all and I'll look forward to seeing you back in the therapy room, all be it a 'phased return' 💛

How good is it that finally Menopause, Peri-Menopause and all that comes with it, is now talked about more openly 🩷

Happy Menopause Day!

Honest post 💗

Well, that was a waste of time posting this availability at the weekend!!
Unfortunately I'm still not great and have got an appointment on Monday night and blood test on Tuesday. There are parts on my iron levels which are still really bad, causing me to be iron deficient, which doesn't help anything. I am permanently exhausted, all my joints hurt, certain clothing hurts my skin, so I really don't know what's going on - everything is such an effort, showering, getting dressed etc
So, I’m going to pause treatments until Wednesday. I hate cancelling on you, you’ve all been so lovely booking in.

Meanwhile, I’ll be pottering about in The Cubbyhole Gift Shop, surrounded by candles & wax melts, where I don't have to get dressed or talk to anyone and just trying to look after myself.

Thank you for listening and I hope you are all ok 💛
