What did you get up to at the weekend? Doynton Hard Half was brutal on another scale. Adventure around every corner (and through every pond filled gateway). Slip and slide sound effects were in full swing.

So many climbs and descents and even more fun. Didn't take enough food with me and started really struggling at mile 11 but met the wonderful Martin and Maria who were helping tail runners get to the finish.

Martin offered me a cheeky biscoff biscuit which saved the day for me today, along with great company from both gently encouraging me to keep going. Knowing there was only 2 more fields/ponds to get through made the world of difference when you are that cold.

And then crossing the finish line with my wonderful kids Nathan Anscombe thank you for all your love and support today. My new Ronhill Reverence trainers are the business and totally saved me.

Wish to take a moment to say how much I have enjoyed helping everyone this year. As we celebrate this season of joy and gratitude, I am reminded just how lucky I am to work with such lovely people.

Wishing you a happy, healthy Xmas & New Year.

Lots of love,

CLIENT SPOTLIGHT - James C

I have trusted Kim and her ‘magic hands’ to help keep me fit and healthy for over 10 years. 

Whether race preparation for maximum performance, injury diagnosis and rehabilitation or a simple body MOT before an event or increase in training load, Kim is my go-to professional. 

Even after all these years I am still astonished at her ability to find and fix whatever is going on – I know I will be better afterwards and am always in safe hands.

Just in case you are wondering if I can help. I work with all ages, backgrounds and fitness levels and love helping as many people as possible heal and recover quickly and successfully.

I first met Kim 9 years ago after one of my many falls due to hypermobility and weak ankles. Only this time I damaged the peroneal nerve in my left leg which led to drop-foot and neuropathy. 

I saw a physio but after a few sessions she felt she could no longer do anything for me. As you can imagine this impacted greatly on my life, but luckily a friend recommended Kim who transformed everything. 

She quickly identified what was needed and with her amazing skills, dedication and care I’ve overcome those hurdles and even started Nordic Walking every week, climbed Sugar Loaf in Wales and did the Race for Life in 2018. I could never have dreamed of doing any of this, even before my fall! 

I also have back problems and tried various chiropractors, pilates etc with no success and so now go to Kim as she always sorts it out. And at the moment she is helping me with my recovery after a very difficult knee operation! 

I really don’t know what I would do without her. She has amazing skills and compassion and really cares about her patients’ recovery, which can be so hard to find. I cannot recommend Kim highly enough.

Over the last 25 years I have seen thousands of different presentations of pain across all ages and have been on a mission to get people back to their life before pain took hold.
