✨ What a year it’s been! ✨
I just want to say a heartfelt thank you to all of my amazing patients for your continued support this year. It’s been wonderful catching up with familiar faces and meeting so many new ones 🤍
I truly appreciate the trust you place in me and love being part of our local community — you really make my work so rewarding.
The clinic will reopen on 6th January, and I can’t wait to see you all again in the New Year.
Wishing you and your families a happy, healthy Christmas and a fantastic start to 2026 🎄✨ Enjoy the festivities, look after yourselves, and thank you again for such a brilliant year!

Last week I picked up a foot injury playing netball (huge thanks to Karen @forthphysio for her brilliant treatment and taping that kept me moving 🙌).
It was also a reminder of how our bodies change as we move through midlife. With lower levels of oestrogen and testosterone, our soft tissues naturally stiffen—meaning injuries can become more common.
The good news? There’s so much we can do to support our future health. One powerful tool is eccentric strengthening (training our muscles while they lengthen under control). It helps maintain elasticity, resilience, and strength—so we can keep doing the things we love for years to come.
This week I’ve been focusing on just that, and here’s one of my favourite exercises. This season of life isn’t about slowing down. It’s about moving smarter, building resilience, and creating the future we want for ourselves. 🌟 #QueensferryChiropractic #ChiropracticQueensferry #ForthWellness #ScotlandHealth #QueensferryLife #StrongInMidlife #WomenSupportingWomen #HealthyMidlife #MidlifeStrength #FutureYou #kirkliston #winchburgh
💪✨ Today I hit a big milestone, a 100kg deadlift!
This was a goal I set at the start of the year, and it feels incredible to see the hard work pay off.
🎯 Goals are so important. When they’re achievable, measurable, and time bound, they give you something to focus on and work towards. Without them, life can feel a bit overwhelming. But when you have a clear target and you reach it the sense of accomplishment is priceless.
At the clinic, I love seeing patients set goals too – whether it’s reducing pain, improving movement, or getting back to doing the things they love. With the right plan, support, and consistency, amazing results happen.
🙌 Here’s to setting goals, chasing them, and celebrating the wins – big or small.

Hi guys, just thought I would briefly introduce myself. I ran out of time to say everything I wanted to, so just to add I absolutely love travelling, exploring new cultures, tasting diverse cuisines and embarking on exciting adventures which often involve Adrenalin inducing activities! #southqueensferry #edinburghchiropractor #kirkliston #winchburgh #backpainedinburgh.
Happy New Year! After an incredible couple of weeks off that’s me back feeling refreshed a ready to go. Just a couple of photos of the beautiful scenery up north this weekend, nothing like a bit of nature to help revitalise us. Looking forward to seeing you all soon. #southqueensferry #wonchburgh #kirkliston #edinburghbackpain
That’s me finished up for the year. I want to wish you all a wonderful Christmas and to thank you for trusting me to help you look after your bodies this year. Roll on the festivities 🥳 and I’ll see you in 2025 #southqueensferry #kirkliston #winchburgh
I’m donating 10% of all new patient appointment fees throughout October to @make2ndscount as it’s a brilliant charity supporting the patients and families of those diagnosed with secondary breast cancer. I have one new patient slot next Friday afternoon so how’s a great time to book as you’ll also be giving back to this wonderful charity.

It’s been a busy week of CPD for me. The pelvic floor is so important for both function and support of the core and your pelvic organs. Look out for new knowledge coming your way, I really enjoyed this course. #pelvicfloorhealth #chiropractoredinburgh #backpainedinburgh #pregnantedinburgh #womenshealthedinbburgh #southqueensferry #kirkliston #winchburgh
None of us are super humans it can happen to us all. I’ve hurt my back… yep that’s right a Chiro with a bad back! It was my own fault, but thought I would use it as a little reminder to you all, listen to your body it knows what it can do. If you’re not feeling up to something don’t push yourself, be kind. #backpain #southqueensferry #kirkliston #winchburgh #edinburghchiropractor #fifeislife
Who does any resistance strength training? It is so important for us and has so many benefits. I try to fit in 30-50 mins 3 x a week. For us women it helps build stronger bones which can protect our future bone health but that’s not all it does. Other benefits include improved heart health, better management of blood sugar levels, improved mood, increased metabolism so you burn more calories, makes you stronger, increases your flexibility and balance reducing your risk of injury and falls. I’m always happy to discuss exercise as it benefits our bodies in so many ways. If you’re unsure where to start just ask away. #southqueensferry #boneheath #resistancetraining #backandneckpainedinburgh #kirkliston #winchburgh #westlothian #fifeislife

Finding time to do rehab can be tough but it’s so important especially after an injury. Here’s some of my program which I’ve managed to squeeze into my routine (not every day, we’re all human, but most days). It’s a mix of mobility balance and strength. Have you been doing your rehab exercises? Or would you like to learn some more. Clink on my website link on my bio or call Forth Physio on 01313311296 to learn more. #southqueensferry #muscleinjuryedinburgh #rehabexercises #kirkliston #winchburgh #westlothian #fifeislife #chiropractoredinburgh
So we get injured too!! Follow my journey from limping to hopefully being back on the netball court with the Ferry flyers as soon as possible. I will try and keep running the clinic as normal so there shouldn’t be any disruption to your appointments. Any advice or if you are wanting to book in please dm me or check out the webpage www.Queensferrychiropractic.co.uk or give @forthphysio a call. Massive thank you to the netball girls for helping me home last night (anyone looking for a team to join I highly recommend checking the Ferry Flyers out) and to Forth physio for the loan of the crutches. #chiropracticedinburgh #calfinjury #southqueensferry #kirkliston #winchburgh #edinburghneckpain
Happy Sunday everyone. I’m going to be adding an extra session, so from August 1st I’ll be available for appointments on a Tuesday morning @forthphysio. Send me a dm, check out my website @www.queensferrychiropractic.co.uk or give Forth Physio a call@to book in. #southqueensferry #chiropractor #edinburghchiropractor #kirkliston #backpain # winchburgh #smallbusiness
This is an activator. Sometimes manual adjustments (what you may think of as clicking) aren’t the appropriate choice of treatment so we use this instead to gently mobilise the joints. It is a very effective yet gentle method. I often use this on my pregnant patients, those with osteoporosis or for people who just don’t like the idea of being cracked. Chiropractic is about so much more than being about the CRACK. If you want to find out more or want book in for an appointment then DM me or give @forthphysio a call. #southqueensferry #kirkliston #winchburgh #edinburghbackpain #backpainin pregnancy #osteoporosis #edinburghpilates #westlothian #fifeislife
What a lovely email to receive today. I am always happy to be able to help people out, but messages like this are why I love my job. If you’re suffering with headaches, back pain, neck ache, shoulder problems or anything else musculoskeletal why don’t you see if chiropractic could help you and book in today. Either call @forthphysio or send me a message to arrange an appointment. #southqueensferry #kirkliston #winchburgh #edinburghbackpain #neckpainedinburgh #edinburghpilates #westlothian #smalbusiness
The well known RICE protocol by Dr Gabe Mirkin is something we often use when we injure ourselves. However we need to stop this if recovery rather than pain relief is our goal on DR Mirkin said this himself in 2015. Both ice and rest have been shown to delay healing. Inflammation is the bodies way to heal and so blocking it is counter productive, however we do not want to let it hang around for too long so movement prevents that from happening by bringing in the blood flow to the injured area. In short a healthy inflammatory response is one that we want to happen. So let’s get moving within a pain free range as soon as we can. Don’t worry if at the start you can only manage a small movement, this will increase over time. #southqueensferry ##kirkliston #winchburgh #edinburghbackpain #edinburghpilates #neckpainedinburgh #sportsinjuriesedinburgh #westlothian
We’re open on Friday. So if anyone is looking for an appointment then I’d be more than happy to see you at Forth Physio. #southqueensferryhighstreet #southqueensferry #edinburghchiropractor #edinburghneckpain #edinburghbackpain #edinburghpilates #newton #kirkliston #westlothian #winchburgh
So it’s been a while since I did a video. So I thought why not on such a beautiful day. If you’re interested about booking an appointment but not sure what to expect then have a little watch of this. As always if you’d like to book in, send me a DM or contact forth physio and we’d happily arrange that for you. #southqueensferry #backpainedinburgh #pregnantedinburgh #edinburghchiropractor #chiropracticedinburgh #westlothian #kirkliston #winchburgh #fifeislife #smallbusinessuk
