🍁 Your Autumn Tune-Up: Stay Well This Season 🍁

As the days grow shorter and the weather turns crisp, it’s the perfect time to give your body a little extra care. Here are 5 simple ways to boost your immune health this autumn 👇

1️⃣ Get Outside Daily – Even when it’s grey or drizzling! Fresh air, daylight, and movement all help your immune system thrive. 🌧️🚶‍♀️

2️⃣ Prioritise Restorative Sleep – Your body does its best repair work while you rest. Early nights = stronger defences. 😴✨

3️⃣ Eat for Energy & Immunity – Think colourful, seasonal foods like butternut squash, sweet potatoes, and beetroot. Nature’s way of fuelling your immune system. 🥕🍠

4️⃣ Keep Your Body Moving – Gentle stretching, walking, yoga, or even dancing in the kitchen — movement keeps your circulation flowing and your spirits high. 💃🧘‍♂️

5️⃣ Book Your Body a Reset – Osteopathy helps support circulation, lymphatic flow, and the nervous system — three key pillars of immune strength. 💆‍♀️💪

Whether you’re feeling a bit run down, stiff, or simply want to stay ahead this season, now’s a great time for an osteopathic check-in.

✨ Resetting Your Routine After Summer✨

As September winds down, it’s the perfect time to reset and bring some structure back into your days. A few small changes can make a big difference:

✅ Set a sleep routine – Try to go to bed and wake up at consistent times, even on weekends. Your body thrives on rhythm.

✅ Plan your meals – Prepping ahead helps you avoid those last-minute choices that leave you feeling sluggish.

✅ Prioritize your health – Don’t wait until you’re in pain to book your next osteopathy session. Regular check-ins keep things ticking over and help prevent problems before they start.

👣 Hi, I’m Abbi!

I’ve been a Podiatrist at The Richards’ Centre for the past 5 years, working alongside an incredible team of colleagues who support each other every step of the way.

Before joining the clinic, I worked within the NHS for over 20 years, gaining valuable experience and a deep passion for patient care.

🚗✈️💺 Four Ways to Keep from Getting Stiff on Your Travels 💺✈️ 🚗

1️⃣ Sit smart: keep your back straight & feet planted for comfort & stability 🪑

2️⃣ Support your back: pack a small lumbar pillow or roll up a jumper 🧘‍♀️🧣

3️⃣ Move often: stretch, stroll the aisle, or walk during pit stops 🚶‍♂️🛣️

🎒 Choosing the Right School Rucksack for Your Child 🎒

The right bag can make a big difference to your child’s comfort and health. When shopping, keep these points in mind:

✅ Supportive Straps – Look for wide, padded, adjustable straps to reduce strain on shoulders and back.
✅ Size Matters – The bag should sit comfortably on your child’s back, not hang below the waist.
✅ Durability – Strong stitching and quality zippers mean the bag will last the whole school year.
✅ Compartments – Multiple sections help organize books, lunch, and water bottles while distributing weight evenly.
✅ Lightweight Design – The empty bag shouldn’t be heavy before it’s filled.
✅ Water-Resistant Material – Protects books, tech, and homework from unexpected rain.

A well-fitted rucksack helps your child stay comfortable, organized, and ready to learn. 💡
