Worth a read as long term dehydration will adversely affect your long term health

When did you last have a decent drink of water? We all know we should down more H₂O, yet the average Briton sips less than half the recommended six to eight glasses a day, shows recent research by PureGym. This doesn’t just leave us feeling parched, it can put us at risk of dehydration and long-...

When you sleep deeply, your brain turns on a special cleaning system called the glymphatic system. It's like a drain that washes away waste and toxins that build up in your brain during the day.

One of the harmful things it clears out is beta-amyloid, a sticky protein that can pile up and is linked to Alzheimer’s disease.

So, getting enough good sleep helps your brain stay clean and healthy—just like washing dishes after a meal!

Sugar is as addictive as coccaine, apparently. I should know as I've had a sweet tooth most of my life. What I never considered is the effect it was having on my body. Overloading the liver with sugar is the same as overloading it with alcohol. After a recent blood test, my GP asked if I drank alcohol as my liver was showing the same damage as if I had been drinking 4 pints of alcohol per day, 7 days per week - I rarely drink so this is purely the effect my sweet tooth is having on me. Food for thought...

Where it all started

A fairly average sunny afternoon several years ago..... I slipped on some wet grass and landed on my side with arm pinned underneath me, to add to this the person I was with also slipped, but landed on top of me. When I finally got up I couldn’t move my wrist - a trip to A&E confirmed “nothing broken, just a soft tissue injury, you’ll be fine”. How wrong they were. Fast forward approx 3 years and I could barely move my wrist, arm, shoulder and neck. I bounced between my GP, NHS Physio, A&E and a Chiropractor until someone I worked with recommended a Sports Massage Therapist. After a few visits I felt much better but still not 100%.

After some soul searching, I took voluntary redundancy from my day job and decided to use the funds to retrain. Quite a leap from being an Exec PA for an Insurance Company but I decided I wanted to help people stuck in the same situation I’d been in (still in pain after conventional treatment ended) and believed I could make a difference.

I got my Holistic Massage ITEC qualification in 2009, Sports ITEC qualification in 2010, Reflexology ITEC in 2013, and haven’t looked back. Through researching the various problems that people presented with I came across Fascia (I bang on about it a lot - but that’s because it’s important!) and quickly realised this was the missing piece not only in my treatment but also in other people’s. I completed my treatment myself!

One thing I always believed, and still do, is that everyone is different so “one size will definitely not fit all”.
