Being in constant pain and discomfort, being limited in what you do everyday and paying for it the next day is exhausting. That's where we come in. Our mission at Unity is to give everyone the life they want and deserve. How we do it? Through hands on therapy utilising sports massage, through physiotherapy and through osteopathy. Most importantly? Through education.

When back pain strikes, it’s natural to become cautious — to avoid lifting, bending, or loading the area for fear of doing further harm. While this protective instinct is understandable, avoiding movement altogether can actually contribute to longer-term issues. In many cases, progressive strength training is not only safe — it’s essential for improving function and reducing recurrent flare-ups.

Head over to our website (link in bio🔗) to read more of our educational articles, to help you understand what you can do to get yourself out of pain and stay there.

What an incredible year it has been as we're unbelievably grateful to everyone we have met this year.

2025 has really been a blessing for us, as individuals and as a company. This year we have helped over 150 patients start their pain free journey, relieving long term chronic issues that prevented them from enjoying everyday activities such as playing with their children, picking them up off the floor or the sport that they've always loved.

We've grown as a team as well! We've brought on Callum, our student Physiotherapist who is just awaiting his registration with the HCPC, and Maria, our Sports Therapist who has helped countless individuals get out of acute pain.

We're grateful to have been able to help so many people this year, and we're looking for to continuing our mission of getting people out of pain in 2026.

We've only just over a week left on our 50% off initial acupuncture appointments offer, celebrating our approval by the local authority to provide acupuncture. So far we've had a great response and there's only a few appointments left between now and the 7th Jan.

What is acupuncture? It involves inserting thin, sterile needles into specific body points to relieve pain and treat various conditions by stimulating nerves, muscles, and connective tissue, promoting the body's natural painkillers.

What are the benefits of acupuncture?
*Pain Relief: Acupuncture is widely recognized for its effectiveness in treating various types of chronic pain.
*Chronic low-back pain (recommended as a first-line, non-drug option by the American College of Physicians).
*Neck pain.
*Osteoarthritis of the knee, hip, and hand.
*Headaches and migraines (acupuncture may reduce frequency and be more effective than some medications with fewer side effects).
*Myofascial pain (muscle tension and trigger points).
*Postoperative and dental pain.

Today marks the 1 year anniversary of the incorporation of Unity Health & Performance - happy anniversary, everyone.

What a year it has been! We started with just Jessica practicing her Osteopathy Done Differently, and Jonathan handling marketing and strategy, to opening a clinic and growing to a multidisciplinary team consisting of a physiotherapist, osteopath and sports therapist. It has been a massive roller coaster, with ups and downs, hardships, Jonathan being deployed with the Army to the Falklands, laughs, smiles, tears of joy and heart felt wins.

To everyone that has been a part of this journey,that has helped us along the way, that has put their trust and health in our hands, we just want to say thank you. Thank you for believing in us, that we would be able to make a difference to your life, your health and your chronic pain.

We hope that we can continue to deliver for you, our patients, and make a difference to your lives. Here's to many more years of us helping people.

A new study 'Acupuncture treatment improves disabiling effects of chronic low back pain in older adults' by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) confirms what many of us knew all along - reduced disability, lower pain intensity, better mobility and daily function, and that improvements that last for up to 12 months.

Subjects in the study received a course of medical acupuncture with a few top up sessions and the results were consistent: less pain and better mobility. Furthermore, acupuncture remained safe, even for older adults who may be unable to tolerate stronger medication or invasive treatments.

Unity is currently offering 50% off of our 1 hour initial acupuncture appointment, which includes a comprehensive medical assessment, followed by treatment. Get in touch and start your pain free journey with us.

Unity is so excited to announce that we have been granted a licence to perform medical acupuncture by Braintree Local Authority!

After displaying the highest standards of patient safety, clinically guided treatment and hygiene, we've been granted a licence to practice acupuncture.

Acupuncture offers benefits primarily in managing chronic pain, such as back and neck pain, osteoarthritis, and migraines, and also aids in managing symptoms like nausea, stress, and insomnia.

We're excited to be able to offer this treatment to our patienrs to help them on their pain and injury rehab journey.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas... at Unity!

Our favourite time of the year is upon us once again and we're super excited for it. Christmas is a time to spend with the family, friends, to recharge and rest.

To celebrate Christmas, we're offering double Loyalty Points when booking a Unity Recovery Session. Our Recovery Session blends sports massage with sports therapy. We undertake a movement assessment at the start of the appointment to identify the root cause of your pain and discomfort, before treating it with sports massage techniques.

We hope you all enjoy this Christmas period with your family and friends. Merry Christmas and God bless.

A big shout out to the handymen at Prested Hall Health Club for getting the work done so quickly and professionally in anticipation of our inspection from Braintree Local Authority!

Tomorrow we're having an inspection, in line with the Essex Act 1987, in order to launch our acupuncture service! Wish us luck!

Our acupuncture service, once launched, will be provided by our student Physiotherapist, Callum. We can't wait for him to start helping people get out of and stay put of pain!

Welcome to the team. Callum! What a first week it has been. Callum has been getting to grips with, and settling in at Unity Health & Performance.

Here's what Callum had to say: "What an incredible start! I’m absolutely delighted to have completed my first week with the team at Unity and to officially integrate into the vibrant community at Prested Hall. This initial week has been hugely successful, allowing me to align my expertise in the journey from acute injury to full return to play with unity's excellent standards.

Crucially, I’ve also had the pleasure of meeting so many members across the facility—from the dedicated Real Tennis and Padel players to the regular gym-goers and, of course, the fantastic Prested Hall team. Understanding the specific demands and goals of this active community is essential to me, and I look forward to applying my experience (honed in professional sport) to help everyone achieve their recovery and performance goals.

I'm ready to hit the ground running and dedicated to helping you move better and stronger. If you see me around, please say hello".

If you see Callum out and about, say hello and if you're suffering with pain, he's always happy to provide help and advice.

From everyone at Unity, welcome to the team, Callum.

We've finally got the new mats laid!

After a lot of hard graft, cutting and lugging around 20kg rubbers mats, we have finally laid every last one.

We're constantly finding way to invest, give back and provide our clients and patients with the best possible service. By ensuring the studio is in the best possible condition it could be, we're able to accommodate more people at our Mobility and Core Done Differently classes.

Not only are the classes led by highly qualified registered Health Care Professionals and Sports Therapist, they're highly competitive on price.

Join us on Saturday for our Mobility Done Differently class where pur osteopath helps improve your mobility, but where we come together as a community afterwards for a tea, coffee and pastry.

Unity would like to welcome home our Director of Marketing & Strategy, Jonathan. Jonathan is an Army Reservist serving with 36 Signal Squadron, 71st (City of London) Signal Regiment and has just completed a 6 month deployment to British Forces South Atlantic Islands (BFSAI).

Working alongside his regular counterparts in the Army, Royal Navy and Royal Air Force, Jonathan was part of RADCON which delivers TacCIS and OpCIS to British Forces and supports the Falkland Island Government (FIG) providing secure radio communications during major incidents.

Of his deployment, Jonathan said "My deployment to BFSAI was one of the best experiences of my military career. Being able to work alongside my regular counterparts, such as the Parachute Regiment and HMS Forth, providing real world value, was such a privilege. Putting the skills I had trained for into use in such an arduous, albeit breathtakingly beautiful part of the world, was extremely rewarding and watching typhoons passby overhead on my 36th birthday will always be a memory I'll cherish. That being said, I am excited to get back home and to see all of my colleagued at Unity. I look forward to getting stuck in and taking the company to new heights."

From everyone at Unity, welcome home Jonathan.
