Female Focused Offerings for Health & Wellbeing

I offer a number of specific programmes specifically for Women at every stage of their Pelvic Health.

I have a number of pre and post natal offerings which will help you stay strong, pain free and fit before and after childbirth. In addition, I can help in your recovery from hysterectomy and also offer a pelvic floor and core strengthening programme.

Why don’t you take a close at one of those below:

*** Is Your Mind Overwhelmed Right Now? *** With all this time inside, would it be possible to take some time to practice mindfulness and start to look inside ourselves? As a sports massage therapist I know how important this is to reducing pain, keeping positive when injured and even for performance! But it also has a big impact on our mental health too. I am sure we could all do with creating some headspace so this week I am going to focus on Mindfulness even for those of you who think you 'cannot do it!'. If you are unconvinced here are just some of the benefits: • Reduces Stress • Reduces Pain • Improves Sleep • Increases Productivity • Helps to Focus • Reduces Anxiety • And more!

Walking - A Powerful Health Tool! I have heard so many people moaning about not being able to get to the gym I get it, I am a crossfit ADDICT! But I think we have also forgotten just how good an exercise walking is for our health and wellbeing Walking has so many health benefits but I really like this evidence based article from the Harvard Medical School on 5 surprising benefits: 1. It counteracts the effects of weight-promoting genes. 2. It helps tame a sweet tooth. 3. It reduces the risk of developing breast cancer. 4. It eases joint pain. 5. It boosts immune function.

Vitamin D - Use that Outdoor time! It is a crazy time right now across the planet but for some reason we have been blessed with an unseasonably sunny March here in the UK and lets make sure we get out there and absorb all the vitamin D we can: Vitamin D Facts: - It boosts brains function - It helps our muscles stay strong and powerful💪 - It may help improve Heart Health - It helps maintain Bone Strengh - It may stave off Gum Disease And given we get 90% of our vitamin D from sunshine I have one piece of advice - LET THAT LIGHT IN! Throw open your windows, sit in the sunlight and that once a day pass for exercise? lets walk in the sunshine and bathe in its goodness Good for body and soul and we all need that right now :-) #fitness #fitfam #mobility #muscle #fascia #connectivetissue #massage #massagetherapist #sportsmassage #wellbeing #health #power #health #wellbeing #stayathome #vitamins #vitamind #sunshine #sunnydays #happydays #crazytimes #healthypeople #healthandwellness #heart #bones #body #mind
Injured While Social Distancing? Know what to do! Forget Rice, Mice and all the rest. When you get injured it is all about Peace & Love, science has moved on - get your self some optiomal healing: PEACE - For The First 2-3 Days/Acute Stage of Injury P for Protect Restrict movement for the first 1-3 days but do not completely rest it. Rest can compromise tissue strength and quality so rely on pain signals to tell you how much is enough when it comes to load and movement. E for Elevate Elevate the limb higher than the heart to promote flow of interstitial fluids. A for Avoid anti-inflammatory modalities. Anti-inflammatory medications may potentially have a negative impact on long term healing of damaged tissues. As with ice, although mostly helping to reduce pain we do not want these things to hamper inflammation as this is a key part of the healing process. C for Compress External mechanical pressure using taping or bandages help to limit swelling helping ensure we have some but not too much, studies have also shown it can help promote healing and improve quality of life in those early days of injury. E for Educate We, therapists need to help educate our clients that they need to take an active approach to their own recovery. Manual therapies can help reduce pain and improvement movement but their impact is minimal compared to active movement when it comes to pain and function. We can help reduce your pain to get you moving but you will get you better much quicker! Stay tuned for the LOVE. After those first 2-3 days of acute injury it is time to give that injury some love 😊 Reference - https://blogs.bmj.com/bjsm/2019/04/26/soft-tissue-injuries-simply-need-peace-love/ #sportsmassagetherapist #massagetherapy #injured #anklesprain #quadstrain #strains #pains #running #lowerback #fitnessuk #mobilityujk #movementismedicine #bmj #evidencbased #injury #peaceandlove #hamstringstrain #sprainedwrist
