Hello to all current and future clients, I want to give you a heads up that I am having to increase my prices. I have been charging well below market value for a long time and need to ensure my business remains viable. I tend to give long appointments- my initial is an hour and 15 and my follows ups should be 45 mins but are usually an hour! You are always at the heart of my treatment. I have been benchmarking local therapists and will still remain at a competitive rate. I will always be transparent about costs!

Why does an appointment cost what it does?
🙈Tax man takes 20%
😎Paying for heating, electric, gas, towels and washing of.
💻 Paying for equipment, servicing of equipment, re upholstering of plinth.
💪 Weights, subscriptions, accountancy fees, online banking fees!
🧑‍🎓 Courses - mandatory- and cost thousands
💰 Insurances with the chartered society, for the business and health professional society.
📄 Subscriptions to exercise programmes and payment card machines…
🏃‍♀️ Theraband is £75 a roll!! Daylight robbery!

The list goes on. I was absolutely clueless of costs involved when I started. I want to make sure I don’t run an elitist service but also need to make sure I make a reliable income to continue.

Thank you for your ongoing support

Initial assessment £75 for 1 hr 15
Follow up/ massage appt £55 for 55 minutes

Happy New Year to everyone! I have started the year with aiming for consistency and to continue my fitness journey. I always break down goals into small, achievable ones. We all know that some gyms work on the basis that people sign up in January for a year and burn out by February! What if we all just set a goal for one workout a week, any more is a bonus. At the end of the year you might have done 52 workouts with ease- instead of 20 workouts in Jan and then giving up! How different would you feel in a year if you realised you committed to doing something each week? James Clear, Atomic Habits is a great book to read if you want to change a habit.

As a type 1 diabetic I’m also working on reducing sugar- just one day at a time!

What small, achievable goal could you set?

On another note- someone graffitied my car over Christmas and I can’t believe I never spotted my registration before! Found it funny!

Happy Christmas! A huge thank you to everybody who has supported my business this year! I appreciate everybody who attends clinic and classes and recommends the clinic. It makes a huge difference. And a special thanks to my husband who washes a million towels a year for me 🤣. Have a wonderful festive time and I will see you in the new year, Kate

I love this bunch who turn up at 6.30 a.m. on a Friday morning to workout! Sometimes in their pjs 🤣.

I am closing the clinic for a week from the 22nd December. Working the 29th and 2nd and am back into the full swing of it from the 5th January!

I am fully booked until Christmas and looking forward to seeing everyone! Please message me if you would like a consultation from January!

One of my offerings is a chair based yoga class. This is great for everyone, we work on mobility, strength and balance and it can be a very challenging class. It really does suit most people as there are variations to make it easier or harder depending on what you want from the class. Some of my regular mat students have come along and said that the chair class is more challenging! Three classes a week in Nottinghamshire…

🗓️Mondays - 1.15pm - Elston
🗓️Tuesdays - 11am - Normanton on Trent
🗓️Fridays - 11am - Norwell

You can book online to join or contact me for more information or just a nice chat!!

A recommendation and shout out for this running coach Sam Roberts. An incredible runner who you will often see pacing the streets in our area. A volunteer coach at Retford athletics but also offering private coaching. Sam is a talented athlete, often competing and winning races that I could only dream of taking part in! If you or a teenage child want to better your running please get in touch with him.

Feeling part of a community when you work out can be hugely encouraging. I look forward to running my circuits classes and seeing everyone who attends. Sometimes I can’t stop people chatting and have to use my firm mum voice 🤣🤣. Last night it poured with rain half way through the class but it didn’t stop this lot!
