Christmas can be magical - but it can also be stressful 🎄💛

Chronic stress doesn’t just affect your mood; it can show up in your body as headaches, poor sleep, muscle tension, fatigue, and lowered immunity.

Here are a few gentle ways to protect your peace this season:
✨Lower the pressure: Everything doesn’t have to be perfect.
✨Set boundaries: It’s okay to say no to plans that drain you.
✨Take mini breaks: A short walk, deep breaths, or quiet time can calm your nervous system.
✨Stay present: Focus on moments, not expectations.
✨Ask for help: You don’t have to do it all alone.

Taking care of your stress is taking care of your health. Calm is a gift too 🎁

Tanya, one of our Physiotherapists, took time away from the clinic to attend the Chartered Society of Physiotherapy National Conference in Newport a couple of weeks ago.

It was inspiring to hear about the incredible Physiotherapy work happening across the UK, and she was proud to share the journey of our Senior Strong classes 💪

Our short film received fantastic feedback. Delegates told us that while the research and stats were interesting, it was the film they’ll remember most - one facilitator even said it made her cry!

Have a watch and see for yourself! 📽🌟

Huge thanks to Kathryn and Candy for driving the growth of the Walnut Grove Wellbeing Community Interest Company. You’re making such a positive impact in our community.

We had such a lovely evening at Cafe Marina UK last Friday celebrating the start of the Christmas season. Great food, lots of laughs, and a brilliant Secret Santa that brought out everyone’s festive spirit.

A special shout-out to Kathryn for her short but sweet speech - the perfect reminder of what a fantastic team we have at Walnut Grove 💚

Here’s to another great year ahead! 🌟

Our Story

The Clinic was established in 1992 by Zara Ford B.Sc (Ost), Lic Ac. Since then it has grown into a multi-disciplinary medical centre of excellence. Zara is on the board of directors at the British School of Osteopathy she also teaches on the sports masters degree course for doctors in Bath. She was one of a group of healthcare professionals who looked after the British Team at both the Sydney and Athens Olympics. She also looked after our athletes at the Manchester Commonwealth Games. Clinic facilities include four treatment rooms and one of the very few Pilates gymnasiums in the west country. It is used by everyone from Olympic Athletes to the man in the street to help the body relearn normal function and enable patients to recuperate from injury much quicker.

We are also one of the very few clinics in the South West to offer Shockwave treatment, also known as Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT), it is a clinically proven and highly effective treatment for chronic soft tissue injuries.
