🌺 Remembrance Day – Two Minute Silence 🌺

Tomorrow, we will pause to observe a two minute silence at 11:00am to honour and remember those who have served and sacrificed.

Please note that our 11:00am Oxygen session will begin a few minutes later to allow time for this moment of reflection.

Lest we forget. ❤️

🏃‍♂️ Great to see local athlete and Smart Performance Coaching coach Darren back in action today! After 8 weeks post-op, he completed his first run using our anti-gravity treadmill 🙌

Starting cautiously, Darren soon found his rhythm — safely supported while reducing load on his lower limbs and rebuilding confidence with every step.

💪 Fantastic to see this amazing piece of kit helping athletes get back to fitness. We look forward to seeing Darren again soon and following his recovery journey!

🌿 Meet Lara – Our New Reflexologist 🌿

Earlier this week we gave you a little teaser about our new reflexologist. Today we want to give you the opportunity to get to know her a little better.

With over 20 years’ experience in reflexology, aromatherapy, and holistic wellness, Lara brings a deeply nurturing, intuitive approach to every session. Having run a busy practice on the Norfolk/Suffolk border for two decades, she now calls Herefordshire home — and we’re so excited to have her joining us.

Lara specialises in supporting clients through stress, overwhelm, hormonal changes, sleep and energy concerns, pregnancy, and emotional wellbeing. Each session is beautifully tailored — combining expert reflexology with carefully chosen essential oils to gently rebalance body and mind.

What truly sets Lara apart is her calm, grounded presence. She believes in creating a safe, nurturing space where you can slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect with yourself. Her aim is simple yet profound — to help you leave each treatment feeling lighter, more centred, and restored from the inside out.

✨ “I believe in listening to what your body is telling you — and supporting you gently to return to a place of calm and balance.” – Lara

📅 Lara joins us next week and is now taking bookings!
