Cold weather can worsen the symptoms of arthritic conditions... painful swelling and inflammation of the joints. Many of Helen's Bowen and Reflexology clients - both therapies help to keep stiff joints more flexible - have said that a warm bath seems to help, improving circulation which in turn soothes aches and pains.

Helen suggests adding a handful of Bexters Bath Crystals, with extra magnesium and essential oil of peppermint, to enjoy more restful sleep... good advice for us all even if we don't suffer from stiff joints! www.bowensuppliesbyhelen.com

This week radio and print media have started to talk about that sense of dread which affects some people as the nights draw in and the clocks go back.

Known as Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) this feeling ranges from the 'winter blues', wanting to hide away when it's cold and grey outside, right through to a genuine form of depression which can be truly debilitating.

Helen sees this in her clinic when clients complain of lethargy, persistent low mood, joint and muscle pain and difficulty in concentration... common SAD symptoms. Her advice reflects that of medics who recommend:
- walking outdoors to benefit from natural light (even on a grey day!) and exercise
- eat balanced meals rather than reaching for carb-heavy comfort foods
- keep warm with hot drinks, hot bath and thermal clothing
- maintain social activities despite the inclination to hibernate

For more information please read Helen's blog 'Light is a Right' and share your tips on how to overcome this seasonal affliction https://www.bowensuppliesbyhelen.com/blog/

Great Eastern Run... are you prepared?
We've been supporting local runner Helen Spivak since July when she rolled her ankle during training causing a soft tissue injury resulting in painful swelling.

Through a combination of to loosen hamstrings and aid calves and Achilles tendons plus regular use of award-winning Bexters crystals to prevent swelling and fluid build-up in ankles and feet, Helen is facing the Run in good shape.

She is running on behalf of PSPA, a charity close to her heart after her mum died from the rare neurological disorder progressive supranuclear palsy.

As the date gets closer (October 12th) she is well stocked with two of our purpose-designed applicator wraps to use with Bexters on each ankle after training, to prevent fluid build-up and relieve any swelling. We also advised her to bathe in Bexters to replenish lost minerals and ease aching muscles... especially important after the Run to aid recovery, as well as post-training.

Please get in touch if you would like us to help you out too! It's easy to order via our online shop https://www.bowensuppliesbyhelen.com/ or you can message us here and we'll get right back to you. Great Eastern Run Good Running Events Ltd.
