This week we are talking about bra fitting #8 does the centre of your bra sit flat against your chest?
If the centre panel of your bra gapes and does not lie flat then your bra cup may be too small and the band size too big.

This week we are talking about bra fitting #7 is your bra riding up or moving when you lift your arms?
When you lift your arms, the band of your bra should move minimally. If yours does, you probably need to change your band size.

This week we are talking about bra fitting #6 is your band size too tight?
This is something I see quite often when people come in for massage.
Your bras want to fit but not be too tight - do you have deep red marks when you take your bra off? If yes, then it is probably too tight
Ideally, the band should be done up on the middle clasps.

Menopause changes the rules, but you can still win the game! 🕊️
Hormonal shifts mean we lose muscle and bone density faster, increasing the risk of injury. But Pilates acts as your internal safety net:
✅ Joint Support: Strengthen the muscles that protect loose joints.
✅ Bone Density: Resistance work tells your bones to stay strong.
✅ Mojo Fix: Forget the gym, small sessions are enough to reclaim your energy.
This week we are talking about bra fitting #4 is regular fitting and buying of new bras.
Apparently over 80% of women are wearing the wrong size of bra
It is recommended to have a bra fit at least every year

This week we are talking about bra fitting #3 are your bra straps falling off?
Your bra straps should give you support, although the main support should come from the band.
If your straps keep falling down, tighten them or consider changing to a different shape bra

This week we are talking about bra fitting #2 are your bras comfy without digging in, especially with the wires?
Your bras should not be digging in. I know I have had a couple of bras where the wires were digging in my arms pits. This is not great for your breast and armpit health
There is a balance between a well fitting bra and being too tight - do you have the balance right?

The power of touch! Massage can help make changes to our physical health as it can cause a reduction in blood pressure and heart rate.
