❗️Cancellation Policy Reminder❗️

Your appointment time is reserved just for you. A late cancellation or missed visit leaves a hole in my day that could have been filled by another patient. As such, we require 24 hours notice for any cancellations or changes to your appointment. Patients who provide less than 24 hours notice, or miss their appointment, will be charged a cancellation fee.

I have a busy schedule and a wait list of patients that would like to get in to see me, with appropriate notice we can contact them to get them in for the treatment they require. Furthermore, most private healthcare clinics work on a model that each practitioner is paid per person that they see. If you do not attend your appointment, or we are unable to fill that spot, the practitioners do not get paid. Please give us as much notice as possible so that we may try to fill gaps in the schedule.

Thank you 🥰

❌ Did you know that you can breathe wrong? ❌

If you've ever watched a baby breathe, it's all through their stomach. But as we get older and the world forces us into a forward slouched position 🧑‍💻 it's harder for us to belly breathe and we start to chest breathe instead.

While you chest breathe 20 000 times a day, your neck muscles are going to get very tight and your mid back joints are going to get very stiff.

Roll your shoulders back and sit up tall, and take a deep breath in. Feel how that is different from how you usually breathe (when you're sitting like a 🍤).

Re-learning how to breathe is harder than you'd think. You have to really think about it until it starts to become second nature again. But your body will thank you in the long run, your joints with move more freely in your mid back, your neck will be more relaxed, and your body will get more oxygen easily as you may be able to take a deeper breath.

If you still find it difficult to belly breathe, book an appointment so we can work on your joint mobility, relax your muscles and help you cue the movement. 🌬

Pain can limit your ability to work, care for your family, and enjoy other daily living and recreational activities. Some exercises that you might find on Youtube could be doing you more harm than good.
