# was full today, so I pushed myself to the gym and for a run. Wasn't motivated AT ALL but got on with it, and yes enjoyed myself. Plus exercised the mutt 🐕.

Once you take that initial strp it's much easier.

Neck Pain is a very common problem that can affect 2 out of 3 people at some point in their lives. Recent studies have shown that neck pain is most common in those who may be desk based workers, or those that sit for longer periods of time.

Most neck pain can be a short lived inconvenience and sorts itself out naturally over a short period. However if it is niggling get yourself booked in and get it eased out. There are gentle exercises too that can be used to help stretch your neck and upper back.

With the cold temperatures, snow, and wet leaves - the frozen surfaces will make trips, slips and falls very likely. If you have to walk outside, then please walk like a penguin 🐧 🐧 🐧.!

Today I undertook the CHAD 1000 Hero Workout. What is that you may ask :-) .......

It is a high-volume workout of 1,000 box step ups onto a 20 inch high box, with a weighted vest (if you're a bloke). As quickly as possible. It was designed to honour U.S. Navy SEAL Chad Wilkinson, who served for 22 years and died by su***de on 29 October 2018. It's a chance for reflection and deference, but it was also designed to raise awareness about veteran su***de and mental health issues.

On paper and written on the wall it's an incredible straightfoward workout. However its mentally and physically demanding. 42 minutes later 💪 💪 💪.

Was it easy - NO
Did I want to stop - Never an Option
Was it tough - Hell Yeah 😳
Did I succeed - YES 😀😃

So when I lecture at clinic about Glute Stength LISTEN TO ME, when I say nothing is impossible BELIEVE ME, and when I say do as I do FOLLOW ME.

I'M AWESOME. WHO KNEW🤩!

"Just a quick update since my last appointment. On Wednesday I felt a big difference in my hip and on Thursday a difference in my calf. Almost pain free, just occasional twinges. You're awesome!"

Feedback is vital - both in terms of how your treatment has gone, but also on how your session has been provided to you. Sometimes an issue requires more than one appointment - this client persevered with Sciatic-symptom pain and look at the result. She's booked in for maintenance appointments going forward to be proactive to her health rather than reactive.

Can't wait to see you in clinic x

Today is World Mental Health Day.

It’s in the breaks of this life that we grow into our true selves. You are not here to be perfect every day - You are here to feel. You are here to love. And you are here to grow. And you should feel broken sometimes, if you are doing all of those things.

The analogy is Kintsugi - a Japanese art and philosophy of repairing broken ceramics by mending the fractured pieces with lacquer dusted with powdered gold. It is a technique that highlights, rather than hides, the breakage.

A "golden repair" - transforming breakage from a negative event into an opportunity to create something new and more beautiful. By mending the cracks with gold, the object becomes stronger and more beautiful, a metaphor for personal growth through past trials.

Take care of yourself. Fill those cracks with gold.

It's a great privilege to work with Oncology Cancer patients, terminal or in recovery, offering support at such vulnerable times.

Being invited into their journeys, even briefly, is an honor and brings a deep connection and quiet understanding. Each session becomes more than physical relief - it's a shared space of compassion, dignity and care. To walk alongside these clients, if only for a moment is a humbling and rewarding experience.

Sometimes their journeys end, as has happened this week, but a connection still remains - a quiet reminder of the power of presence and I'm so grateful for the privilege of walking alongside someone at the end of their life.
