A super weekend spent at on their Sports and Kinesiology Taping course, a course I’ve wanted to do for a while to enhance my treatments but more importantly to be able to offer my clients extra ‘support’ on their training journeys

Taping can help reduce swelling, improve recovery, provide support, lessen pain and thus improve performance so I’m super chuffed I can now offer this as part of my treatments 🤗

Any questions please just ask away or send me a message to book an appointment 💫

Special post to say a huge Congratulations to two of my amazing clients who took part in the London Landmarks Half Marathon and the Paris Marathon respectively over the weekend with their children 🙌🎉🤩

Through all the niggles, aches, pains, self doubt and nutritional dilemmas, we’ve worked together on a weekly/fortnightly basis and both ladies completed their races pain free, didn’t hit the wall and got the pre race, race and post race nutrition bang on 🙌🎉🥳

I need to share this because I am SO proud of them!!! I’m in total awe 🙌 and they have inspired me to get our training when it’s the last thing i’ve wanted to do! It just goes to show that by looking after your body, doing the correct strength and conditioning and training sensibly (not overdoing it) has great results and finding a sports therapist who works for you can really change your life and mindset, helping you reach those goals you may not have thought possible 🙌

Peek a boo! Summer is nearly out and kids go back to school tomorrow 😭!!!

Part of me is very ready for this but equally I’m always sad when the holidays are over!

We’ve had some great adventures this summer, caught up with so many friends, had our fill of beach time and outdoor adventures and enjoyed lots of family time so my heart is full right now 🫶

Next week is back to a normal working week and getting back into the swing of routine… I’m working Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday so if you’re struggling with those aches and pains and would like an apt - do get in touch!

Happy last day of august peeps 🥲 and roll on September! Hopefully the sun will make an appearance and we’ll get our fix before the winter hits!

The Cirencester summer sizzler last week was just BRILLIANT 🤩

The setting, the event, the course, the spectators, the weather 🥵, the vibe, the food and drinks afterwards (thank you !) it was just awesome 🙌

And I couldn’t be more proud of my friend Kate who I’ve been training this year… her aim was to ‘just get around’, then she got stronger and fitter and the goal was 70mins… then on the night even in the heat she ran around in 1hr 6mins in her first ever 10km 🙌👏🏻!!! (With the biggest ever smile to cross the finish line 😁!

With just 1 session together a week and a couple of set sessions in between, she managed the juggle of a full time job and 3 children, setting aside the time for herself, to achieve what she thought was impossible 🫶

It just goes to show that making the smallest of changes to your routine and mindset, can reset your whole body giving you that zest of life back again!

Thank you Kate for being so determined to achieve your personal goals, it’s been an absolute pleasure to be by your side!

Who doesn’t love an event/race?!

It’s just a great opportunity to push yourself, switch off and race the clock + hunt down as many other runners as possible!!!

Westonbirt 10k was a brilliant event last night… family friendly, great course and just the most gorgeous setting 😍

Thank you for putting on such a fantastic event! We’ll be back next year 💪🏃‍♀️🙌!

Ta da 💫😍 and just like that the stress and anxiety of moving locations, doing up a room, painting, new carpets, new door, new furniture has all blown away and I’m left in a very happy place enjoying a space I’ve created myself (with a little help from hubby!) 💫

I’ve finally created a room that I love, it’s peaceful, calm, offers me the flexibility to work around family life and at last I can share it with my wonderful clients 🙌

For all those who have supported me, THANK YOU so much 🙏 it’s honestly meant the world to me ☺️ - everyone can loose focus at times, self doubt can creep in but when the support and belief is there, anything is achievable 🙌

New room, new chapter and I can’t wait to get started 💫

‘If everyone had a massage every week the world would be a better place’ - very true, but totally unrealistic!
However, there are ways to ‘self care’ and this is a great article which explains how - 100% worth a read to help you feeling as good as you can between your appointments 🥰 or to simply help over comes the daily aches and pains that may drive you down.

If everyone could get a massage twice a week, the world would be a better place. Even if you can't pop in for a massage as often as you'd like, there are things you can do to keep yourself feeling good in between appointments. It's called "self-care," and adding just a couple techniques to

Heeelloooo 🙋‍♀️ and Happy New Year to you all 🥂🎉💫!!!

It’s safe to say I’ve totally stitched off this Christmas. The days have been dark, wet and windy, I’ve snuggled up and watched lots of Christmas films with the kids, cooked, played many a board game, got out running when the weather has been kind and eaten and drank A LOT once I’d finally got over the nora virus 🦠!

The new year can bring a mix of emotions. Some people will be full of energy geared up with New Year’s resolutions and rearing to go… others will be tired, exhausted from the hype of Christmas and craving space… whatever you’re feeling try find time for yourself… self care is vital for physical and mental health and you can only make others happy if you are happy within yourself…

If you’re stuck, struggling to see the light, stressed, exhausted, training for your next event or just need some ‘you time’, my door is open, I have appointments available throughout January and I’d love to help 💕

You only have one body; look after it 💫

I’ve absolutely loved running in the cold this week 🏃‍♀️!!! Reminds me of Nordic skiing days in the Army where we’d be out training in -12 and sometimes even colder which was totally freezing but incredibly exhilarating 🙌

Anyone else loving the snowy cold sunshine?! I don’t want it to end!

P.s Please snow for Christmas 🎅🏻❄️!!!

You could even turn up already in pyjamas and slippers - I wouldn’t mind 🙊!
