Great talk at Kendal Mountain Festival with Andy Mcvitie, Max Milne and Molly Thomson- Smith. Great to hear elite athletes stories about coping and recovering from injury. Interesting to hear Andy, a fellow physio, experiences of working with climbers.

🧡 A Message from Kendal Physio 🧡
We want to take a moment to sincerely apologise for a recent post promoting our menopause event. While our aim was to bring some light-heartedness to a serious topic, we understand that the message missed the mark and caused offence.
We’re truly sorry.
Menopause is a significant and personal journey, and we deeply regret that our wording didn’t reflect the respect and sensitivity it deserves. Thank you to everyone who reached out - your feedback has helped us reflect and learn, and we’re committed to ensuring our future messages are more thoughtful, inclusive and empowering.

✨ The key is to ensure your spine stays in a natural alignment while you sleep.
Don’t just go for the firmest mattress because you think it’s the best; listen to your body’s needs.

Unpacking new pieces of gym equipment is like unpacking presents from your gran at Christmas, massive box, lots of unwrapping then the disappointment of another piece of black metal. 😟

Did you know that the way we breathe can sometimes contribute to back pain?

It might seem surprising, but shallow breathing can lead to increased tension in your neck and upper back muscles.

When we breathe deeply, using our diaphragm, it promotes relaxation and helps reduce muscle strain.

Many of us take quick, shallow breaths, especially when we're feeling stressed.

This doesn’t just impact our lungs; it can also affect the muscles connected to our back and neck.

By practising deep, diaphragmatic breathing, you can help ease tension, improve oxygen flow, and potentially reduce discomfort in your back.

Next time you’re feeling tense, take a moment to focus on your breath.

✨ Try inhaling deeply through your nose, allowing your abdomen to rise, and then exhaling slowly.

This simple technique can be a gentle yet effective way to support a healthy spine and keep you moving comfortably.

Remember, small changes can make a big difference!
