September is just around the corner — which means it’s time to ease back into routines.

🧒 Got kids starting school?
🎒 Check that backpacks are no more than 10% of their body weight
🪑 Encourage good posture when studying or on screens

🧍♀️ For adults: post-summer = time to recheck your posture, mobility, and any niggles that flared over the holidays.

Let’s help you and your kids start the new season pain-free and moving well.

Sore after a hike or summer 5K? How do you know if it’s just muscle soreness or something more serious?

Here’s a quick guide:

❓ Soreness feels better after a few days and usually eases with movement
⚠️ Injury may feel sharp, worsen with activity, or come with swelling or bruising

If in doubt, a quick physio assessment can save you weeks of discomfort.

DM us or call to chat through your symptoms.

Long car ride or flight this summer? 🚗✈️

Sitting for hours can tighten your hips and leave your back feeling stiff. Try these travel-friendly stretches at a rest stop:

🦵 Seated knee hug (great for hip mobility)
🤸♂️ Standing quad stretch (hold on to the car!)
🚶♀️ Take a short 5-minute walk every 1–2 hours

Your body will thank you when you reach your destination.

💙 A message from the team at Godalming Physio

From 15th September 2025, we’ll be making a small update to our appointment fees.

We want to be completely open with you about why — and how — we’ve come to this decision.

🧾 Every year, we review our pricing to ensure it keeps pace with inflation and reflects the rising costs of running a modern physiotherapy service. This includes clinic overheads, ongoing staff training, and the time we dedicate to each and every patient — not just during your session, but in the planning and support we offer between appointments.

🕒 This year, we’ve also taken a closer look at how our appointment durations are priced. We realised that our 45-minute appointments were significantly underpriced per minute compared to 30-minute sessions. To keep things fair and sustainable, we’re adjusting those rates a little more than the others.

What’s not changing is the care we put into every session.

✅ You’ll still receive personalised, hands-on treatment
✅ You’ll still see experienced clinicians who genuinely care
✅ And we’re still committed to giving you time, attention, and expert support every step of the way

If you’d like to book in at our current rates before 15th September, feel free to get in touch — we’re here to help.

Thank you so much for continuing to trust us with your care. We never take it for granted.

With warmest wishes,

The Godalming Physio Team

Quick Quiz Time 🧠

💭 TRUE or FALSE? Applying heat is usually better than applying ice immediately after an acute sports injury?

👇 Drop your guess in the comments before you swipe to reveal the answer!

Need help managing an injury? Get in touch — we’d love to help you recover faster! 💪

🏷️ Hashtags:


✅ Correct answer: FALSE.
In the early stage of an injury, ice is your friend — it helps control swelling and pain. Applying heat too early can make inflammation worse. Save heat therapy for later in the healing process or for tight, aching muscles.
