Is it the done thing to say “I’m proud of myself?”

Well today I’m going to step out of my comfort zone and say “yes, and I am”.

Wind back the months to September 2020 and I had just returned from maternity leave after my 3rd child in 6 years and moved to a new community team, all whilst in the middle of a world pandemic.

Fast forward 7 months and I have gained a qualification in Sports Massage, passed my APPI Matwork series, left the NHS after 13 years and started my own domiciliary Physiotherapy service, specialising in rehabilitation for the older adult.

I have met some of the most fantastic , inspiring and generous health care professionals along the way who have pushed me to work towards my goals.

Sometimes it is so important to celebrate the small wins and look back to allow you to understand where you started.

TUESDAY TIPS!

Checked your footwear recently?

Poorly fitting slippers or shoes can contribute to your risk of falling.

Looking at your feet and footwear could ensure that your toenails and slippers don’t affect your mobility, and subsequently restrict your ability to remain as independent as possible.

- is your footwear the right size for you?
- are they loose or ill fitting?
- have they got enough grip?
- do your slippers have a back to them?
- are your toe nails causing your footwear to rub?

Small things can make a big difference.

A review from a recent client. Makes me love my job even more when I know I have improved someone’s pain and assisted them in maintaining their activities.

Some clear and important information provided by Age UK about Falls Prevention.

The sun was shining here in Leeds today and with more people trying to get their daily dose of exercise, it’s so important to consider how we can minimise the risk of falls.

Lockdown has affected the elderly population massively with de-conditioning, isolation and decline in function being major side effects. It’s so important to keep these patients safe and maintain their mobility, function and independence. As health care professionals, we all have a role to play.

Are you at risk of falling or do you have any friends/ relatives that are at risk?
Could you consider discussing any of the points included by Age UK with them?

What better time than the new year to introduce the face behind . I’m Alex and I’ve been a physiotherapist for over 13 years treating patients in both the NHS and private sector. I’ve recently taken the plunge and started my own ‘mobile physiotherapy service’ bringing my services to you. I specialise in musculoskeletal conditions and elderly rehabilitation. I’m trained in sports massage and on my way to gaining my APPI Pilates instructor certification so get in touch if you feel I can help you with improving your pain or regaining your function. When I’m not treating patients, I’m spending my time running after these 3 little humans so I understand how hectic life can be. AKR Physiotherapy offer flexible appointments to suit you.
