Someone's been in the wars today. Had us both a little worried but he'll be fine, although a bit mardy.

Three hours later, and Darth Vader's chin is finally taking shape! 🛠️ Taking some time away from work to dive into creativity and give my mind a break. Sometimes, stepping back and focusing on something entirely different is the best way to recharge. 😅

"Here's a fascinating fact: the word 'diet' actually comes from the Greek diaita, which means 'way of life' or 'lifestyle.' 🌿 Originally, a diet wasn’t just about food—it encompassed a whole approach to living well. This ancient concept reminds us that wellness is not just about what’s on our plate but also about how we live day-to-day.

Instead of focusing solely on eating restrictions or quick fixes, let's try to embrace a more comprehensive view. This means integrating nutritious foods, regular exercise, adequate rest, and stress management into our lives. 🥗🏃‍♀️🛌

By adopting this balanced approach, we honour the true meaning of 'diet' and cultivate lasting health and happiness. 💫 "

Someone's feeling a bit clingy today. No reason why, he just wants to be close.

Manual therapy is a hands-on technique used by physiotherapists and other healthcare professionals to alleviate pain and improve musculoskeletal function. It involves the skilled manipulation, mobilisation, and massage of the body's soft tissues and joints. By applying specific pressures and movements, practitioners aim to reduce tension, enhance mobility, and restore normal movement patterns. Manual therapy can be effective for treating various conditions, including back pain, neck pain, and joint stiffness, promoting overall physical well-being and aiding in the recovery process.

Some examples of Manual Therapy

- Soft Tissue Mobilisation: This technique involves massaging and manipulating the muscles and connective tissues to reduce tension, improve circulation, and enhance tissue flexibility. It's commonly used for conditions like muscle strains and tendonopathies.

- Joint Mobilisation: Practitioners apply controlled movements to joints to restore normal motion. This technique is often used for treating joint stiffness and pain, such as in the case of osteoarthritis or frozen shoulder.

Myofascial Release: By applying gentle, sustained pressure to the myofascial connective tissue, this technique aims to relieve pain and increase range of motion. It's particularly beneficial for conditions like chronic pain and fibromyalgia.

Trigger Point Therapy: This involves applying direct pressure to specific points within a muscle that are causing pain and tightness. It's effective for treating conditions like tension headaches and chronic muscle pain.

Myofascial Cupping: Using cups to create suction on the skin, this technique helps to lift and separate soft tissues, improving blood flow and promoting healing. It's often used to treat muscle tightness and chronic pain.

A fragility fracture is a type of bone fracture that occurs from a low-energy trauma, such as a fall from standing height or less.

These fractures typically happen because the bones have been weakened by osteoporosis or other conditions that compromise bone strength and density.

After life-altering spinal surgery my wife Joanne, was left with severe limitations in sensation and mobility of her legs. It made an incredibly active person into someone who couldn't get out of a chair or climb the stairs.

Yesterday we climbed Bickerton Hill as part of our training to climb Snowdon. Joanne has been receiving care from the Walton Centre NHS Trust ever since and is now giving back for all the incredible work they do in neurology and neurosurgery. Below is a link to our charity page.

This person is so inspiring, in my very biased opinion and we appreciate any sponsors big or small that may come our way.

I'd be very grateful if anyone could support my wife. We're raising money for the fantastic, well deserving Walton Centre hospital. My wife had life-changing spinal surgery that left her unable to walk unaided and she is now looking to climb Snowdon. Any donation would be appreciated. Read more attached.
