⭐️Celebrating Success in Stroke Recovery: John’s Journey to Walking Again 🌟

John’s journey is one we’ll never forget.

After his stroke in February 2023, John was unable to walk and relied on support just to transfer at home. In our last update, we shared his first steps—with a quadstick and two people supporting him.

But this week… everything changed.

👏 John took his first independent steps using a forearm walker.

No hands-on support.
Just determination, hard work, and the right rehabilitation approach.

Now walking 12 metres and progressing his transfers, John is proving that recovery doesn’t stop—and that progress is always possible.

He wanted to share his story to inspire others, and to show that your true potential can be unlocked with the right support, in the right place, at the right time.

💛 We are so proud to be part of his journey.

We had a wonderful time being invited along to speak with the Borders in Recovery Group 💜

From the moment we arrived, we were made to feel so welcome. It was a real privilege to spend time with such an open, supportive group, sharing knowledge and having meaningful conversations.

During the session, we focused on fatigue management, menopausal health, and wider women’s health topics—alongside offering one-to-one chats to support individual needs. These personal conversations are always so valuable, allowing us to tailor advice and support each person in a way that works for them.

Something that’s really important to us when working with community groups is starting with a simple question:

“What would you like to get out of today’s session?”

This helps ensure that everything we share is relevant, meaningful, and genuinely makes a difference.

Our goal is always to help people move better, feel better, and live better across the Scottish Borders—and sessions like this are a brilliant reminder of why we do what we do.

Borders In Recovery is a lived experience recovery community offering free peer support, meaningful activities, trips to national dry events, facilitated groups, recovery cafés, signposting, and volunteering opportunities. They currently run weekly recovery cafés, SMART meetings, a music group, and a Saturday family breakfast club. Their support is open to anyone aged 16+ who is in recovery—whether related to substances, mental ill health, isolation, or loneliness—as well as family and friends, with dedicated support available for those impacted by a loved one’s substance use. They also offer a free recovery self-coaching course, yoga and mindfulness sessions, and are developing a Street Soccer group.

They have an active page, a lively WhatsApp group, and are also on Instagram and X. If you’d like more information or support to get involved, you can contact their peer support team or reach them via email at hello@bordersinrecovery.org. There are also great volunteering opportunities available.

If you’re part of a community group and would like us to come along and speak with your members, we’d love to hear from you. Please get in touch at 📧 enquiries@homephysionicola.co.uk

Happy 2 year anniversary, Preethi! 🎉

Two years ago, I met you in Starbucks for your induction, back when HomePhysio By Nicola was run from my bedroom, with a garden shed as our equipment store. It is incredible to think how far we have come since then, from those early days, to our office, and now to our clinic 💙

We truly cannot thank you enough for everything you have brought to the team. Your professionalism, kindness, and unwavering support have made such a difference, not just to the business, but to the many lives you have helped transform across the Scottish Borders.

You embody everything we stand for, and we are so lucky to have you as part of the HomePhysio family.

Here is to you and this amazing milestone! 🌟

Happy Mother’s Day to all the wonderful mums, step-mums, grandmothers, and those who take on a mothering role in our community 💐

Today we celebrate the love, strength and care that mothers give every single day. We’re also thinking of sons, daughters and families who are now caring for their own mums, supporting them with the same kindness and dedication that was once given to them.

Mother’s Day can bring many emotions, and we also hold in our thoughts those whose mum has passed. The love, memories and influence of a mother stay with us always.

At HomePhysio by Nicola, we have the privilege of supporting families both in our clinic and in people’s homes. We see first-hand how much mothers, step-mums, daughters and sons do for others, often putting their own needs last.

This Mother’s Day, we want to gently remind all mums and carers that your health matters too. Taking time for your own wellbeing, movement and recovery isn’t selfish — it’s essential. When you look after yourself, you’re better able to continue caring for the people who matter most.

Whether you’re a mum, step-mum, grandmother, acting as a mum to someone special, caring for your own parent, or remembering a mum who is no longer here, we’re sending you warmth and appreciation today.

Happy Mother’s Day from all of us at HomePhysio by Nicola 💗

🌟 A Wonderful Review for Our Selkirk Clinic! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We were absolutely delighted to receive this lovely feedback from Tina following her first appointment at HomePhysio By Nicola Ltd’s physiotherapy clinic in Selkirk, Scottish Borders.

Tina shared how welcomed she felt from the moment she arrived — from our reception team offering tea or coffee, to the warm and thorough care provided by her physiotherapist. She also highlighted the personalised assessment, hands-on treatment, and the individual exercise programme sent through our app to support her progress at home.

At HomePhysio By Nicola Ltd, our goal is always to provide friendly, professional and personalised physiotherapy in Selkirk and across the Scottish Borders, helping people feel supported and confident in their recovery from pain, injury, or mobility difficulties.

Hearing that Tina felt comfortable, well cared for, and impressed with her experience at our Selkirk physiotherapy clinic means the world to our team.

Thank you so much for your kind words, Tina — we look forward to supporting you on your physiotherapy journey. 💙

Back pain had taken over Lesley’s life.

She told us she felt like her life was over and there were days she could hardly walk. Everyday tasks felt impossible, and she worried she might never get back to the things she loved.

With the right physiotherapy support, a personalised treatment plan, and a lot of determination, Lesley gradually rebuilt her strength and confidence.

Today, she is walking unaided and enjoying life again — something that once felt out of reach.

Stories like Lesley’s remind us why we do what we do.

Move better. Feel better. Live better.

If you are struggling with back pain, you don’t have to face it alone. The right support can make a life-changing difference.
