🇭🇺 A little city break to Budapest to recharge my batteries. My feet ache from all the walking but I certainly got a good intake of vitamin D ☀️

🏊🏻‍♀️ A perfect city for open air pool geeks! Our hotel had a stunning 50m outdoor pool and we went to the Hungarian national pool to swim there too.

💦 Lots of mineral rich thermal springs mean there are plenty of spas to enjoy. Hot pools, cool pools, cold plunges, steam rooms, saunas, salt rooms, Budapest has it all in abundance!

💆 I’m fully booked the rest of this week but I do have limited availability left next week on:

Monday at 5pm
Tuesday at 12pm
Thursday 12pm

📱 Call or text on 07967 370 768 to book, send me a DM or you can book online using the link in my bio 🙏

What is cramp?

😣 A sudden and involuntary tightening (spasm) of a muscle/muscles that causes pain and makes it hard to continue moving that muscle. Muscle cramps occur mainly in the leg and foot muscles but any muscle can be affected. Cramp can last a few seconds or several minutes depending on the severity.

🙋 What should I do if I get cramp?

💪 Gently stretch the muscle and massage the area to encourage it to relax. Move around to get your muscles working.

😴 You can get cramp when you are asleep (nocturnal cramp).

🙋 What causes cramp?

🏃 It could be too much high intensity exercise, holding a position for too long, stress, losing body fluids through sweat, involuntary nerve discharges, side effects from some illnesses and medications, deficiencies in potassium, calcium or magnesium…

🙋 How can I prevent cramp?

💦 Stretch well and stay hydrated. Get a massage to help your muscles stay in tip top condition.

👩‍⚕️ Seek medical advice if you have severe discomfort when cramping, you cramp often, you have leg swelling or redness or if you are concerned.

💆 My treatments are always tailored to each individual clients needs. Some clients are recently injured, some have long term issues, some come for maintenance treatments to avoid injury and some people come because it’s part of their self care routine and they enjoy a great massage.

🏃 I treat clients that seriously compete at sport and clients that do sport just for fun and fitness. Some clients come with work or hobby related injuries and some clients just have tight achy muscles that need a bit of TLC.

💰 I charge £62 for an hours treatment. In your first session we assess your muscular issues so that we can make the best plan of action to help improve your mobility and reduce muscular discomfort.

🚗 I work from a lovely treatment room from Move Chiropractic Clinic in Rodney Road, Cheltenham. There’s lots of parking on Rodney Road and in Rodney Road car park.

🦶 This week is National Feet Week. How amazing are feet? Well, here’s a few foot facts for you…

🦶 Each foot has 26 bones, 33 joints and over 100 muscles, tendons and ligaments. The foot and ankle is a complex mechanical structure.

🦶 There are approximately 8,000 nerves in the feet—that’s more per square centimeter than any place else on your body.

🦶 Balance nerves (mechanoreceptors) are responsible for our balance. They send messages to the brain letting us know how feet are working and where they are in space. Not getting this feedback can reduce our balance and put us at greater risk of having falls.

🦶 Rarely are two feet on a person the same size.

🦶 In an average day of walking, your feet experience forces totaling hundreds of tons—the equivalent of a fully-loaded cement truck.

🦶 Podophobia is an intense fear of feet.
