Ready for a day in the clinic now! 😆
So many people ask: “How do you get through a long day in the clinic?” And “Do you get a massage yourself?”

Self care is a priority these days.
In a day at the clinic:
✔️ A pre-work coffee at my favourite coffee establishment. A luxury but it sets up the day.
✔️ Warm up stretching before first client
✔️Plenty of fluids (I try for 2L over the day)
✔️Snacks! Massage is tough work when you have a fast metabolism. Fruit and protein for the win!
✔️Regular breaks
✔️A brisk walk outside at some point in the day to clear the head and get the blood pumping.

Outside of the clinic:

✔️Regular massage and osteopathy treatments
✔️Lots of walking (my happy place, for tension release)
✔️Yoga and stretching most days
✔️The occasional “Mental Health Day” where I get away on my own and do my own thing.

I was just talking with a client about her needing a “Mental Health Day”. Do you ever take one?

A Mental Health Day, for those not familiar, is a day where you can put the phone on silent, and go and do whatever it is that de-stresses you. That might be reading a book in the sun, going fishing, going to the gym followed by a coffee with a friend: whatever!
A day to recharge your battery and chill out. We all need it at some point. I had one yesterday, I went for a big walk at Walhalla. Just me and the birds and some steep-as hills.

Look after your mental health, make it a priority! Taking a “time out” should not be seen as a luxury.

There’s so much to love about walking: so go get out there! On you own, with a mate, or with a group. Walk the dog, take the kids either on foot or on bikes/scooters if they like. Even a short walk is enough to give you health benefits!

21 reasons why walking works and is a great form of exercise for all round body health and wellbeing. Oh... and it's free too!

Back in the clinic tomorrow after the most amazing adventure, hiking solo for 7 days in Tasmania!
106km walked on mountains, rocks, mud, tree roots, and in old growth rainforest. I saw roaring waterfalls, historic huts, alpine lakes, wildflowers, funghi, and met some wonderful people along the way.
Camped in my tent every night, and spent lots of time walking on my own in the spectacular Tassie mountains.
I set myself a goal to get out of my comfort zone, get off my backside and get a bit fitter, and tick something off the bucket list. Tick, tick, tick and tick ✔️
And for the record: no blisters!😉

As some of you may already know, I will be on leave for the next two weeks. I will not be responding to calls or messages until Wednesday 4th March, and will be back in the clinic from Tuesday 10th.

The best camping spot!
But holidays are over, back to the clinic this week. I’m fully booked for the next couple of weeks, but text or leave a voicemail to arrange bookings further into the month.

I think this sums it up well!
Merry Christmas to my clients and colleagues, I hope you are all on the couch now with full bellies and loose waistbands. Enjoy a happy and safe break, and see you all in the new year.
