Creatine: beyond sports supplements?

Creatine is a naturally occurring compound found in muscle and brain tissue. It plays a role in cellular energy production.

It has traditionally been used in sports settings to support high-intensity physical performance. More recently, it has also been studied in relation to muscle health and brain function as people age.

Some studies have explored whether creatine supplementation, when combined with resistance exercise, may help support muscle strength in older adults. Other research has examined its role in brain energy metabolism and possible effects on cognitive function. Findings to date are mixed, and research is ongoing.

Creatine is generally well tolerated in healthy individuals, but it may not be suitable for everyone. Individuals with underlying medical conditions should seek medical advice before taking supplements.

Healthy ageing is supported by regular physical activity, balanced nutrition, adequate sleep, and stress management.

If you have questions about supplements, you may wish to consult a qualified healthcare professional. Patients under our care can also discuss this with their attending doctor.

This post is for general information only and should not be considered medical advice or a recommendation for any specific supplement.

Mental Health Awareness Month is an opportunity to reflect on overall wellbeing and consider how we are feeling day to day, as well as how we support those around us.

Many people experience periods of increased stress, low mood, or feeling overwhelmed in daily life. Our psychologists often encourage small, practical habits that can support general mental wellbeing, such as:

📅 Keeping a consistent daily routine where possible
😴 Prioritising rest and sleep hygiene (e.g., regular sleep and wake times)
⏸️ Taking short breaks during the day to reset and recharge
🌿 Practising simple grounding or breathing exercises when feeling overwhelmed
🤝 Staying connected with supportive friends, family, or community
📵 Reducing excessive screen time or news exposure if it feels draining
📝 Writing down thoughts or worries to help organise them

If you are finding things difficult or would like additional support, speaking with a qualified healthcare professional can help you explore strategies suited to your individual needs.

To learn more or arrange an appointment, you can contact us via our website.

This month is a reminder to make space for your wellbeing in ways that feel manageable and supportive for you.

Thinking about removing a wart or skin tag?

Cryotherapy is a commonly used in-clinic procedure that uses controlled cold (liquid nitrogen). It may be suitable for treating certain skin concerns, subject to medical assessment, including:
• Warts
• Skin tags
• Calluses
• Molluscum

The procedure is performed in a clinical setting by a trained healthcare professional.

After treatment, some redness or a small blister may occur as part of the normal healing process. You’ll be advised on how to care for the area, including keeping it clean and avoiding picking.

If you’re considering cryotherapy, you can speak with our team to learn more or book an appointment with a doctor via our website www.imc-healthcare.com
or call 6733 4440 to determine if it’s appropriate for your condition.

Treatment suitability and outcomes can vary.
