March is MSA Awareness Month.

Multiple System Atrophy (MSA) is a rare, progressive neurological condition that affects movement, balance, coordination and the body’s automatic functions such as blood pressure control. It’s often mistaken in the early stages for Parkinson's disease, but it progresses more rapidly and affects multiple systems in the body.

MSA affects approximately 3–5 people per 100,000. Because it’s rare, many people have never heard of it.

Over the years, supporting individuals living with MSA has become something very close to our hearts. We’ve seen the challenges it brings — not just physically, but emotionally and for families too.

We’re sharing this to help raise understanding and awareness.
Rare conditions deserve to be recognised. 💙

If you feel comfortable, please share this post to help spread awareness.

✨ Hello March ✨
Lighter nights and brighter mornings with the Spring flowers creating beautiful displays for us all to enjoy

Here’s what’s coming up at My Core Wellbeing:

🌙 Yin Yoga with Si
🗓️ Wednesday 25th March
⏰ 5:30 – 6:30pm

Yin Yoga is a slow-paced style of yoga that focuses on holding deep, passive stretches for an extended period, typically 3 to 5 minutes. Unlike more dynamic forms of yoga, Yin encourages stillness and mindfulness, allowing you to target the deeper connective tissues like ligaments, joints, and fascia. The practice helps improve flexibility, joint mobility, and overall relaxation. By holding poses for longer periods, Yin Yoga also activates the parasympathetic nervous system, promoting a sense of calm and reducing stress.
It’s perfect for anyone looking to enhance their flexibility, ease tension, and cultivate a peaceful state of mind. 🌿

🌀 Sound Bath with Anna
🗓️ Friday 27th March
⏰ 5:30 – 6:30pm or 7:00 – 8:00pm

A sound bath is a therapeutic experience in which you are immersed in sound waves produced by various instruments, such as gongs, crystal bowls, Tibetan singing bowls, tuning forks, and chimes.
During a sound bath, you typically lie down nice and cozy while the sounds are played, allowing the vibrations to resonate through your body and encourage deep meditation, emotional release, and overall wellbeing.
Experiencing a sound bath will help promote relaxation, reduce stress, and restore balance in the body and mind.

✨ March Class Highlight: Phsyio Pilates
A unique blend of Pilates-based movement and the most effective physiotherapy exercises designed to keep your whole body moving. Each class focuses on strength, flexibility, balance, and coordination — helping you build resilience, improve posture, and move with confidence. And yes… it’s good fun too!

A simple daily routine of stretches and gentle movement can help ease stiffness and achy joints. Whether it be first thing after you get up in the morning, or after a days work, this movement sequence can make a difference to any-body.

Seated Side Stretch:
Lengthen the muscles along your spine for full-body relief. This simple stretch can even be done at your desk to instantly ease the stiffness in your neck and shoulders

Thread the Needle Stretch:
is a gentle, beginner-friendly yoga twist that releases tension in the shoulders, neck, and upper back. Starting on hands and knees, you thread one arm under the opposite armpit, resting the shoulder and ear on the mat. It stretches the thoracic spine and improves spinal mobility

Seated Cat-Cow with Arm Stretch:
The muscles in your upper back and chest often become tight, pulling on your neck and shoulders. This variation opens up your chest and relieves that built-up tension.

Child’s Pose with Side Stretch:
Child's pose with a side stretch is a gentle, restorative yoga posture that opens waist, sides, and lower back. From a kneeling position, sit hips back to heels, extend arms forward, then walk hands to one side, stretching the opposite side's ribcage, holding for 30–60 seconds while breathing deeply.

Cat-Cow Stretch:
Your neck is part of your spine, so it’s important to get the entire spine moving! This gentle flow helps release tension from your neck down to your lower back.

Cat-Cow with Leg Lifts and Curls:
Cat-cow with leg lifts and curls—is a dynamic, full-body exercise that enhances core strength, spinal mobility, and balance. It combines the traditional spinal flexion/extension of cat-cow with the core-strengthening movement of bringing a knee to the nose.

Add these to your routine and feel the tension ease

As with any type of exercise or movement, only do what feels right for your body, if you have any concerns, please get in touch to speak with a physio

Today is Lunar New Year 🌙

February 17 marks Lunar New Year, the annual celebration beginning with the new moon and concluding with the Lantern Festival. This year, it welcomes the Year of the Horse; a symbol of strength, freedom, perseverance, and energy. Letting go of the year of the snake 🐍

🐎 Horse is this year’s zodiac (2026), and the 7th animal in the 12-year cycle of the Chinese zodiac signs, coming after the Snake and before the Goat.

Today is also PANCAKE DAY! 🥞
But did you know it’s origins?

Pancake Day, or Shrove Tuesday, is today, February 17, 2026, marking the final day of indulgence before the Christian fasting season of Lent. Historically, it was a day to use up rich foods like eggs, milk, and sugar, resulting in the tradition of eating pancakes. It is celebrated in the UK, Ireland, and Australia.

Key Facts About Pancake Day:
Date: It falls on the Tuesday before Ash Wednesday, 47 days before Easter Sunday.

Significance: It is the last day to eat rich, fatty foods before 40 days of Lenten fasting.

Why Pancakes? Traditionally, it was a way to use up dairy and eggs. The ingredients symbolise 4 points of significance: Eggs (Creation), Flour (Staff of Life), Salt (Wholesomeness), and Milk (Purity).

Traditions: Besides eating, traditions include pancake races (popular in the UK).

Popular Toppings: Lemon and sugar are traditional in the UK, but many variations exist.

What toppings do you enjoy on your pancakes? 😋

🧠 Fibromyalgia affects more people than you might think
Around 2–4% of adults worldwide live with fibromyalgia — a long-term condition that causes widespread pain, fatigue, sleep problems and brain fog. It is diagnosed far more often in women, but it can affect anyone.

The good news? Research shows that movement-based and hands-on therapies really can help.
✨ What the science says:
• Physiotherapy & tailored exercise can reduce pain, improve strength, stamina and daily function
• Acupuncture has been shown to help relieve pain and fatigue for some people
• Tai chi & yoga improve pain levels, sleep, mood and overall quality of life — and in some studies work as well as traditional exercise programmes

These approaches don’t “push through pain” — they work by calming the nervous system, improving circulation, reducing stiffness and rebuilding confidence in movement.
Fibromyalgia is real. The pain is real.

And so is the evidence-based support available 💙

If you’re struggling, you don’t have to do this alone — a personalised physiotherapy-led plan can make a huge difference.

Yoga isn’t about stretching yourself into sleep 🌙
It’s about telling your nervous system: you’re safe now.

Your yoga practise can help towards sleep and deep rest in various ways:

🧠 Calms a racing mind
Slow, mindful movement paired with breath helps shift the brain out of “doing mode” and into “it’s okay to rest now.”

🫁 Regulates the nervous system
Gentle yoga activates the parasympathetic (rest-and-digest) response, lowering stress hormones and easing that wired-but-tired feeling.

😌 Releases physical tension
Hips, shoulders, jaw, and lower back often hold stress. Soft stretching before bed can reduce discomfort that otherwise keeps you tossing and turning.

💤 Improves sleep quality
Regular bedtime yoga has been linked to falling asleep faster, fewer night wakings, and more restorative sleep overall.

❤️ Supports emotional regulation
Yoga can help process the day—especially helpful if you replay conversations, worries, or to-do lists at night.

🕯️ Creates a sleep cue
Doing the same gentle sequence each evening becomes a signal to your body: this is our wind-down ritual.

Slow movement + steady breath activates the body’s rest-and-digest response, making it easier to soften, unwind, and let go of the day.

Even 5-10 minutes is enough to make a difference.
Rest is not something you earn — it’s something you deserve 🤍
