May is a great month for trying something new. Last year I started doing some landscape photography and with the lighter evenings it’s great to take the camera out and get some great sunset shots! For me there’s something magical about the sun rising and setting every day.

On a professional note, I am continuing to further my knowledge and hands on skills by starting a part-time degree in Osteopathy in September. I am very nervous but also buzzing to get started!

This month also sees a slight change in clinical hours:

Monday- St.James Chiropractic Clinic, Southampton

Tuesday- Seafront Clinic, Milford-On-Sea

Wednesday-Friday- Lymington Health and Leisure

Welcome everyone to the new website! And Happy Easter! #Chocolate #MoreChocolate #NoGuilt

April sees the brand new website going LIVE!!!! EEEKKK… I have been very excited to show you all and I hope you like it and makes booking your appointments easier. I would love to hear your thoughts on the site and even better if you would be kind enough to give a small testimonial please email [email protected]

#NFSM is back doing more training courses this month. Gaining more understanding of how anatomy reacts to pressure and massage strokes and cover more advance work within medical acupuncture and using electrotherapy to increase healing to more acute injuries where massage may not be appropriate.

Recently in clinics I am seeing a few more back issues because everyone is starting to work on their gardens. Great form of exercise but can irritate the back and knees especially. Tip- Try doing 20/30 mins gardening then sit down or lie down for 10 minutes before doing some more weeding. Speak to #NFSM during your treatment for strengthening exercises or stretches to help those aches and pains.

This month see’s the final of the Rugby Six Nations Championship. This is without doubt the greatest Rugby tournament! Quite a few of our patients watch rugby and are involved within local club settings, so this has been hot topic within out treatment sessions over the last few weeks. And a massive congratulations to England for winning!

On #NFSM front this has been a very busy month working on the new website as we aim to go LIVE with the new improved site. This will be introducing online bookings! Those of you that have made future bookings for the year they have been added to the new system- Do not panic! If it’s in your diary it’s in mine!

Time to be happy this year it’s spring! And the lighter evenings are finally here J time to be more active and get to the beach.

Seriously, blink and it’s already February! Count down now towards the English spring where we see the bright colours emerging again.

A big month for #NFSM as I completed my Diploma in Osteopathic Articulation TM, which will help all patients to gain more joint mobility and a great way to start treatments for those that find massage too much.

February is known as one of Britain’s worst months as it’s cold, dark and everyone is working long and hard hours after the Christmas break, however It’s PANCAKE MONTH! And we all love a pancake. For me, it’s the only time I actually make and eat them so unfortunately I didn’t take a picture for you as they were in my belly very quickly!! My favourite topping of chocolate ice cream- Yummy! That all makes up for the British weather.

Happy New Year to everyone! I hope you’ve had a lovely break from work and spent quality time with your family and friends.

I got a book that I had pre ordered ages ago. ‘The Chemistry of connection’ by Patrick Holford. I would read all his nutrition books while I was personal training and this book moves more in to the way I view health now- A great read for anyone who is interested in Psychology and Health.

A new and exciting venture as I am returning back to Lymington Health and leisure this month to take over from Lymington legend Marion Turner. I started my fitness career at the leisure centre in 2005. It’s now great to be returning and running my own business- Happy days!

What are your challenges and aspirations for this year? Whatever they are I hope you get one step closer in 2017.
