✨ A Heartfelt Thank You as 2025 Comes to a Close ✨

As we come to the end of 2025, I want to take a moment to say thank you to every client and patient who has trusted me with their movement, rehabilitation, and health journey this year.

It has been a privilege to walk alongside you through the wins, the challenges, the hard days, and the moments of progress that don’t always get celebrated enough. Your commitment, resilience, and trust are what make this work so meaningful.

I am incredibly grateful for the conversations, the effort you bring to each session, and the courage it takes to keep showing up especially when it isn’t easy.

As we head into the Christmas period, I wish you and your loved ones a safe, restful, and happy Christmas. Please take care of yourselves, move gently, and enjoy the moments that matter most.

Thank you for being part of the Enhance Movement community. I look forward to supporting you again in the year ahead 💚

Warmly,

Natasha

💬 Important Update: Exercise Physiology and the NDIS

You may have seen recent news about the NDIS Evidence Advisory Committee (EAC) reviewing several allied health supports — including Exercise Physiology.

👉 What does this mean?
The EAC is currently assessing the evidence and value of Exercise Physiology services under the NDIS. This does not mean services are being removed right now — but the review could influence how Exercise Physiology is funded or accessed in the future.

At Enhance Movement, we see every day how tailored exercise programs improve strength, confidence, and independence for people living with neurological and physical conditions. The benefits are real, measurable, and life-changing.

💪 If Exercise Physiology has made a difference in your life or your loved one’s life, you can help make sure your voice is heard.

Your lived experience matters — the more stories shared, the stronger the case to protect and support Exercise Physiology within the NDIS.

Thank you for your continued trust and support. We’ll keep you updated as more information becomes available.

HARD TRUTHS...
Being honest with clients is not about being harsh or mean; it's about being honest, real, and raw. Sometimes, having those difficult and challenging conversations with a client helps to understand what they are navigating at the time, how they manage stress, and what their expectations are, both of themselves and of you as the clinician.

What might be some HARD TRUTHS that you have had with clients, and what did you learn from them? If you are a client who has recieved a HARD TRUTH (even from me) was it helpful? Did it open further discussions that helped you understand where you were in your journey or recovery?

Helping people since 2004 has taught me a great deal, both as a person, a trainer, and a healthcare professional, and really, as a human being.
As Healthcare Professionals, we need to be learning and challenging what we knew 5, 10, or 15 years ago as new evidence presents itself.
It's then about translating that into clinical practice, or what we call best practice. In addition to being an Exercise Physiologist and Exercise Scientist, I am passionate about bridging the gap between evidence, clinical guidelines, and best-practice application, a field known as 'Translational Science'.

If any other healthcare professionals want to know more about this topic, or anyone wants to learn more about research, the evidence and how to make active change in their clinical practice, DM or comment and we can start the conversation that is 'Translational Science'

My hands bow down to this amazing woman and athlete! She is been consistently showing up for herself and her training plan. Her goals and accomplishments this year have been fierce, and truly such as privilege to be apart of. She has been disciplined throughout our journey and she has grown so much with her understanding of strength training and conditioning. I am so proud of you 🙌🏼💚🙌🏼💚🙌🏼💚

🧠 What Shapes Your Health?
When we talk about health, it’s easy to focus on personal choices—what we eat, how much we move, whether we smoke. But the reality is far more complex. Our health is shaped by the conditions in which we live, work, learn, and age. These are called the determinants of health, and they include:
🧬 Biological factors: genetics, age, s*x
🧠 Behavioural factors: physical activity, nutrition, substance use
🏘️ Socioeconomic factors: income, education, employment, housing
🌏 Environmental factors: air quality, access to green space, urban design
These determinants interact in dynamic, non-linear ways. For example, someone living in a low-income area may face limited access to fresh food, safe walking paths, or quality healthcare—factors that compound over time and increase risk for chronic disease.
📌 Real-world example: Access to green space has been shown to reduce stress, improve mood, and lower blood pressure. It’s not just about aesthetics—it’s about cardiovascular health, mental wellbeing, and social connection (Egger, 2020).
This systems-based view challenges the idea that health is solely an individual responsibility. As Rose, Khaw, and Marmot (2008) argue, “the major determinants of health lie outside the reach of medicine.” That means prevention must go beyond the clinic—into policy, urban planning, education, and equity.
💬 What’s one thing in your environment—physical or social—that affects your wellbeing?
