🫠 Sometimes our body just needs a little ‘service’, the aches and pains, niggles, awkward lifting, work positions etc build up! 😅

But that’s ok! We are here for that 🙌🏾

You don’t need to have a specific pain to see us.
A large portion of our patients come for regular maintenance due to the nature of their day to day lives - whether that’s from a lot of exercise, working at a desk, being a tradesperson or a long term health condition (just to name a few) ..

🩷Your body is the most important and complex piece of machinery you’ll ever have - maybe it’s time to give it a little service ? 😉

🫠There’s a few common top causes for neck and back pain in my experience- one of the most underrated reasons is Chronic stress 😩

Chronic stress is ongoing stress which has last over 2 weeks - when we look at how it affects your nervous system and your body.

🫠A hormonal cascade occurs when your body continues to perceive a threat over time, this releases substances including cortisol into your body - which when left to build up can cause tight muscles.

😮‍💨 Your breathing is also different when you’re stressed.
- Notice if you’re holding your breath? Breathe out
- Relax your jaw
- Drop your shoulders

Move your body 💃🏻 Gentle movement will help release muscle tension

🚩 Remind your body - its safe!
Your body cannot tell the difference between a perceived threat and an OBJECTIVELY REAL threat.
Say ‘I am safe’ to yourself until you believe it.

🍁 Take some time for yourself to disconnect (how ever long you have 5 mins/ an hour)
No distractions, allow yourself to be inaccessible for that time. You do NOT have to be on call all the time - essentially putting your body in hyper alert mode.

😊Try it! See how your body feels 🩷

😅Think Pilates is just ‘for girls’ ? Think again 😃

Reformer is a great way to strengthen the core, hips and pelvis as well as improving mobility and flexibility-
Reducing likelihood of injuries !

👉🏽You can catch me teaching reformer on Weds mornings in Gloucester at .studio

👉🏽Or Weds evenings in Cheltenham at

If you can’t make those days/ times - don’t worry 😉 Both studios have plenty of different classes with fantastic teachers - you will be in safe hands 🙌🏾

🧐 Curious to know what an osteopathic treatment with me might be like?

This is a follow up treatment for neck and shoulder issue 😓

Each treatment will be a little different depending on age, medical history and the diagnosis.

⭐ No, not everyone gets ‘cracked’ / manipulated .. it is only used if deemed suitable

⭐ No, not everyone gets taped up! But it is likely I will give you some exercises or stretches to do at home to help speed up your recovery ❤️‍🩹

🎄I know some of you are guilty of this 🙊

This time of year it happens😅

- Move a little more (especially if you’re binge watching a series)
- Try not to cross your legs and sit with your legs straight out or up
- Watch your neck is supported and relaxed not hunched up like Gollum

🧑‍🎄 Remember - if you’ve been a little naughty we’re here to help. You won’t get a lump of coal 😋I promise!

🧊 It’s that icey time of year where slips and falls are more likely to happen 🥲

Practise balance and proprioception exercises to help you prevent falls and injuries 🤕

This is an example of tree pose balance which can be modified for all ages/ fitness abilities.

Remember - keep it fun and if you are a bit wobbly 😵‍💫 always have something next to you to hold on to!

Practise for a 1min every day and you’ll be surprised by how quickly your balance improves 😄

🥶 We are coming into winter, and our bodies may be feeling more sluggish and achey than usual 🥲

Here’s a few simple changes that can help:

⛄️Keep hydrated - it’s easy to not drink water in winter, but things like central heating really do dehydrate us.
Try drinking hot water with a slice of lemon and ginger for extra immunity boosting properties.

⛄️Take a vitamin D supplement.
From October to March in the UK we can not absorb enough vitamin D from our sun.
Vitamin D is really important for mood and energy.

⛄️Go for a lunch time stroll.
The natural sunlight on your face will help to lift your mood and it’s easier to feel more motivated and get some steps/ movement in during the daylight (even if it’s just a quick one)

⛄️Get your iron and B12 tested if your energy is super low - you may have a deficiency. These deficiencies can also lead to you aching more than usual.

⛄️Keep your hands and feet warm 🧤
Arthritis can be aggravated by the cold

Remember we are always here for your winter aches and pains should you need an extra little TLC for those achey muscles and joints 😊
