For those who have been following the emails with my MP () about the NHS recruitment freezes, particularly affecting newly qualified physios. Sam forwarded me the response from our Minister of State for Health, Karin Smyth, this morning. Sam also promised to continue lobbying ministers and working behind the scenes to ensure that the workforce plan resolves the issue. Fingers crossed, it can't come soon enough.

Our first Parkinson's in the Park class was a lot of fun! A fusion of high intensity training, balance work, PD Warrior exercises, Blaze Pods, the Tidal Tank and mindfulness - it brought a great start to a Monday with all attendees enjoying it. Jess and I enjoyed delivering it too!

What lovely feedback on a Friday!

This treasured client has come on leaps and bounds since we started working together earlier this year.

After being told she had 'no rehab potential' and that she needed to accept using a rotastand (piece of equipment which uses a standing turntable to transfer between bed and chair) she can now push herself up into standing, stand using a stick and transfer her weight between both feet, all in prep for stepping.

Most importantly, she feels like herself. She beams and everyone notices. She now leaves the house in her electric wheelchair and goes wherever she needs to with her 'hareem of taxi drivers'. This woman is back and we can't wait to see where the journey takes her.

If you or someone who you care about has a neuro condition or balance difficulties, and you wonder whether Upton Neuro Physio could help- get in touch. Everyone receives a free 20 minute screening call to see whether we are best placed to meet their needs. What have you got to lose?

Autumn days when the grass is jewelled,
And the silk inside the chestnut shell.
Jet planes meeting in the air to be refueled,
All these things I love so well.

So I mustn't forget,
No I mustn't forget.
To say a great big thank you, I mustn't forget.

Ahh loving my first geek out of this term- an online session by the guru who is Claire Minshull talking about exercise dosing- training high or low for size and strength.

As physios/allied health professionals, we often chronically underload our clients when rehabilitating them, meaning in a lot of situations, people aren't getting the most bang for their buck when exercising.

My clients know this is something I am very focused on (sorry, not sorry 🀭) but there is a strong evidence base behind the clinical decision to train like we do and this was again confirmed tonight! So we will keep calm and carry on πŸ’ͺ🏼πŸ’ͺ🏼πŸ’ͺ🏼.

I may very well be late to the party here but I was very impressed with the toilets available at M&S when I nipped in between clients today.

For some of my lovely clients who use a wheelchair, the direction of transfer is really important and the fact that there are now public loos that take this into consideration, is fantastic.

Well done Marksies πŸ‘πŸΌ.

A message from the husband of a lovely client I had the pleasure of working with.

So much of my job is positive- bringing hope, sharing wins, overcoming hurdles and achieving goals. But working in long-term neuro conditions can be hard too. Because some neuro conditions progress, some are life-limiting and some are downright cruel.

As a neuro physio, my role as always, is to help people to reach and stay at their ceiling of potential - wherever they are and whatever their symptoms/limitations.

The Upton Neuro Physio way is holistic which means that as things progress, and as well as helping people to minimise risk of falls, prevent secondary complications and minimise speed of deterioration - being a listening ear, helping people to come to terms with their difficulties and creating opportunities for fun and joy are paramount. As is involving loved ones and carers so that we are all working together and they feel supported too. For info, I have done Masters level training in CBT and counselling skills, and worked closely with psychologists for a large chunk of my career, so I know my limitations but providing a safe space to talk whilst working on physical goals really does help.

I feel honoured to be able to help people in such difficult times and though I can't help but feel sad when such a journey comes to an end, I wouldn't have it any other way.

If you or someone you care about has a long-term neuro condition and wonders if Upton Neuro Physio could help them- get in touch. Everyone receives a free 20 minute screening call to see if we are best placed to meet their needs. What have you got to lose?

About last night πŸ’ƒπŸ»πŸͺ©βœ¨, the Active Pregnancy Foundation awards 2025 in London.

What a night! I barely took any pics but had a wonderful time, meeting some incredible change makers in the field of activity during pregnancy. I met inspiring women and heard powerful stories about their journeys - including a woman who was weightlifting 90kg the week before she gave birth and an ultra marathon running breastfeeding mum championπŸ¦ΈπŸ»β€β™€οΈπŸ¦ΈπŸ»β€β™€οΈπŸ¦ΈπŸ»β€β™€οΈπŸ¦ΈπŸ»β€β™€οΈπŸ¦ΈπŸ»β€β™€οΈ.

I didn't win any awards myself, but loved the experience and meeting my mentors from the endorsement process. I squeezed in a little catch up with my old friends and colleagues before heading in, hung with my lovely pal and wore the most amazing dress 😍 (it is from if you were wondering). Will be back!
