💙 Amputee Awareness Week 💙
Almost a year ago to the day, Stacey found herself fighting for her life in ICU — facing a sudden and unexpected major health crisis that would change her life forever.
Amongst a myriad of health challenges, Stacey underwent a lower-limb amputation. What followed has been a journey of rehabilitation, resilience and redefining what’s possible. 🦿✨
Today, the goal is bigger than simply getting back on her feet. It’s about returning to high-level mobility, work capacity, travel and the recreational activities she loves. 🌏🏃‍♀️💪
Life with an amputation is hard, and some days are much harder than others. But through this whole journey, Stacey has never failed to show an incredible level of positivity, strength and resilience. ❤️
It’s an absolute privilege to be part of her journey and to witness the determination she brings to rehabilitation, week after week.
This Amputee Awareness Week, we want to do more than highlight the challenges faced by people living with limb loss. We also want to celebrate the strength, courage, progress and achievements of people like Stacey — who continue to push their boundaries and strive towards the life they want. 🙌✨
Stacey, you are an absolute inspiration. Keep going — we’re cheering you on every step of the way!🦿💪❤️

🧠 Lately I’ve really been enjoying integrating Functional Patterns (FP) principles into the rehabilitation work with my clients.

🔗 FP allows me to bridge the gap between traditional rehab—which often focuses on isolated muscles and movements—to a more holistic, movement-pattern-based approach to strength 💪, function 🏃‍♂️, and long-term physical resilience 🌱.

🏥 In the studio, I work with people facing a wide range of movement challenges, each with unique goals and circumstances.

🎥 Check out these three client journeys, each with very different movement challenges:
🔹 Parkinson’s Disease 🧠
🔹 Limb Amputation 🦿
🔹 Postpartum Prolapse 🤱

✨ Different presentations. Different goals. ➡️ One common outcome: addressing the body as an interconnected system and building strength through better movement. 🤸‍♀️💪

The past few months have been a whirlwind! ✨
Between developing a new university subject 📚, keeping a business going 💼, and supporting my amazing clients on their journeys ❤️, it’s been a season of hard work and long hours.
This week, I finally gave myself permission to step away and recharge the batteries 🔋☀️.
The two things I was looking forward to most? Soaking up some sunshine 🌅 and moving my body more 🏃‍♀️💪.
I couldn’t resist sharing this view!
A reminder that exercise doesn’t have to feel like a chore. It should be enjoyable, rewarding, and something you can take with you wherever you go 🌎✨
How’s this for a workout location?! 🌅🌊
Sorry I can’t offer this backdrop in the studio, but targeted corrective movement retraining I certainly can!😃

Posture is that dreaded word people hate physios talking about😩

But honestly, we should embrace prioritising our posture🙌…for so many reasons✨including our cognitive 🧠 and emotional ❤️ health! Not to mention reducing the strain on our joints 🦴

Many studies show upwardly orientated and expansive postures are linked with higher self-esteem 💪, more arousal ⚡, increased positive mood 😊 and lower fear 😌 when compared with slumped postures.

Studies have also shown improved cognitive performance 🧠📈 such as increased task persistence, faster processing speed ⚙️ and improved rates of speech 🗣️

So how do we get and maintain good posture?
Well, it’s simply a skill 🎯

Just like an athlete 🏃‍♀️, we need to learn it 📚, train it 🏋️, make it automatic 🔁, and then use it or lose it ⏳

So if the old “shoulders back and down” cue isn’t working for you 🤷‍♀️, come do a session with me in the studio 🏢 to learn real posture and create long-term change 🌱

🕸️ Fascia is a web of connective tissue surrounding all our muscles, bones, tendons, nerves, and organs. It is one continuous network throughout our bodies.
It used to be thought of as a “filler” substance… but we now know fascia is alive! ✨

🧠 It is full of nerve endings and even contractile tissue! Fascia is innervated by millions of sensory receptors, making it even more sensitive than our skin. It is also intimately connected with our central nervous system, having a huge impact on many of our bodily functions.

🔄 Stimulation of the mechanoreceptors in fascia can change muscle tone, fluid dynamics, and the sympathetic tone of our nervous system.

⚠️ Stress, trauma, emotions, poor posture, and inefficient movement patterns can cause our fascia to become dehydrated, stiff, and develop adhesions… limiting its ability to slide and glide with movement.

🤲 Fascia responds well to the deep, sustained-pressure techniques of myofascial release (MFR). Regular MFR helps restore the integrity, hydration, and pliability of our fascial network—allowing improved movement and reduced pain and stiffness.

🧍‍♀️🧍‍♂️ Everyone’s body structure is different and movement patterns are unique, so key areas of fascial release may vary from person to person.

📩 If you’re unsure where to start or what MFR should look like for you, drop me a line and we can assess your individual needs.

🚶‍♂️The way we move and hold ourselves contributes to the stress load on our bodies ➡️🧠😬. We can unload our mind and remove external stressors, but if we don’t change the way we move, we’ll remain stuck in a stress-laden state😩.

Misalignment and poor posture mean your body has to work harder to stay upright during daily life🤕. This leads to chronic compensations and a constant state of physiological stress in your body—and subsequently your brain ⚠️🧠.

So how do we address this? 🤔
✨ Use release techniques to help your body find better alignment
✨ Then teach your system to actively return there more and more often

Admittedly, there are a few finer details, but this is essential for creating the foundation of a strong, efficient, pain-free body🤸‍♂️💚.

If you don’t know where to start this year… I suggest beginning with some myofascial release 🧘‍♀️. Then talk to someone who can assess your body and create an individualized movement plan just for you📋.

If you think myofascial restrictions or inefficient movement might be contributing to your chronic pain and stiffness, please reach out 📩.
In the studio, I offer 1:1 physiotherapy sessions, movement retraining, and physical wellness coaching 🌟💫.

Let’s get your 2026 off to a great start 🚀
Stay tuned for more on fascia! ✨

The weeds were creeping in, it was looking overrun and I felt like the only way was to dig it all up and start afresh. As I was just about to stop digging, right at the bottom of the garden bed these golden gems appeared ✨ 🌟
It was a timely reminder that there’s often so much growth beneath the surface…..even when you can’t see it yet and even when the results haven’t quite blossomed yet. Keep planting and nourishing those seeds and one day the garden will bloom🌱🌼 🌹
