Getting ready for Christmas… do you think anyone’s going to be able to take me seriously today?! 😂😛

News Update! I’ve become a certified fitter for .hq

Have you heard of them before? TheraTogs create orthotic undergarments and strapping products that give patients with sensorimotor impairment a highly effective modality for improving postural alignment, stability, movement skill, precision, joint stability, and prolonged muscle stretch.

We had a really fun and interesting time down in London being trained to fit these garments (as you can see, we got to give them a try on each other!) I’m really excited to start implementing these into my therapy.

Have you used TheraTogs before?

I am so excited to share a before and after post with you for this clinic space but so far all I've got is a before and a during! 😅

So here goes...

The before is obviously the boardroom shot... the during shows the explosion of my clinic equipment that has happened!

It's going to be amazing when it's ready 🤩

I love physio, but I definitely don’t love the initial chaos of organising my stuff in this clinic! 🫠

I don’t want to adult anymore today. Send help!

You’ll find me on the nice rug in the clinic area 😅

I absolutely love working with all my patients and their families. They all welcome me into their homes and schools, make me feel at home, feed me tea and biscuits and even sometimes draw me pictures!

I was so pleased to get this picture made specially for me by one of my patients whilst they were at school 🥰🥰🥰

I went to the RAF Cosford Air Show yesterday with my family. It was windy and a bit rainy but we made the absolute best of it and loved all the displays.

Lesser known fact about me is that I used to be in the RAF Reserves, and not as you might expect as a physio! We have so many transferable skills you know! I absolutely loved it. I signed up after going to my first air show at Cosford in 2009 and then stayed for 4-5 years until my growing family took priority.

Anyone from the West Midlands catch the Red Arrows yesterday??

There’s been lots of talk lately about Turtle Braces, and for good reason.

These clever, mouldable splints can be used for all sorts of orthotic support - from improving range of movement to offering longer, sustained stretches for children with tight muscles or conditions like cerebral palsy.

What makes them exciting is:
🐢 They're removable and remoldable (up to 100 times!)
🐢 They’re quick to deliver
🐢 They can be adjusted at home by trained professionals like me
🐢 They bridge the gap when children are waiting for more permanent orthotic solutions

This kind of flexibility is a game-changer. Traditionally, serial casting or custom splints involve long waits and multiple clinic visits. With Turtle Braces, we can act quickly to prevent loss of range and keep progress moving.
And as always, it's not about replacing traditional methods - it's about having more tools in the toolkit, so we can offer families the best support at the right time.

If you’re another physio curious about these, or a parent wanting to know if it might help your child - get in touch or keep your eyes peeled. This is one to watch.
