The last bank holiday of summer.

You overdid it in the garden.
Slept on an air bed that gave up halfway through the night.
Sat on a plastic chair at a BBQ for hours without noticing how uncomfortable it was.
And now your back is letting you know all about it.
It's easy to write it off as "just a busy weekend."
A body that's been pushed, twisted and slept on wrong has a way of holding onto that tension long after the weekend's over.
The way you bend.
The way you sit.
The way you get out of bed the next morning.
So if the long weekend has caught up with you, maybe this is your sign to give your body some attention before it turns into something bigger.

Just back from Berlin.
A weekend away with Iceni, treating, playing, and being part of something that always reminds me why inclusive sport matters so much.
There’s something about being on the pitch with your team, then patching them up after, that keeps me grounded in what this work is really for. Bodies moving. People supporting each other. Everyone welcome exactly as they are.
And now I’m back in clinic.

A few last-minute cancellations mean I’ve got some appointments free sooner than usual this week.
So if your body has been asking for a bit of attention, that ache you keep meaning to sort, the tension that’s been building quietly, this might be your window.
Book while these spaces are open. Link in my bio, or head to the website alisterboothosteopath.co.uk

A patient asked me last week what actually makes osteopathy different.

And as I explained it, I watched something settle in them, that quiet recognition people often feel when they realise the sore spot was never really the whole story.

Maybe, as you swipe through this, you're noticing something similar.
That the ache you've been working around has been trying to tell you something for a while now. That some part of you already knows it doesn't have to be this way.
Because your body has a way of carrying tension long after you've stopped noticing it, shaping how you sit, how you sleep, how you move through your days.
And you might find, as you read this, that you're already imagining what it would feel like to move a little more freely. To let some of that holding go.
That feeling is worth following.
So whenever you're ready, and perhaps that's sooner than you think, booking in is as simple as tapping the link in my bio or visiting my website.

Your body has waited long enough.

Confession time, I’ve been off the grid.

If it’s been quiet from me lately, that’s why. I’ve been away making the most of some proper adventure and giving myself a much-needed break from screens and tech. Sometimes the best medicine is putting the phone down and getting outside.

Now I am back! Rested, recovered, and recharged.

Here’s your heads-up: I’m off again shortly for a long weekend, heading away to play touch rugby with the brilliant Norfolk’s Iceni Touch Rugby team, and with the bank holiday on top, the diary’s going to be tighter than usual.

So if your body’s been asking for a bit of attention, that ni**le you’ve been ignoring, the back that’s been grumbling, the shoulder that’s not quite right,now’s the time to get booked in before I’m away.

Appointments are filling up. Grab your spot while you can. Book online using the link in my bio.

You’d tell anyone you love to get it looked at. Time to let yourself have the same. That ache doesn’t have to be your normal.
Get yourself booked in today. Hit the link in my bio or visit my website alisterboothosteopath.co.uk

Two spots left and then my diary's shut for a while.

You know that ni**le you've been ignoring? The one that started as "I'll leave it, it'll settle" and has quietly become the thing you notice every time you get out of the car, reach for a seatbelt, or sit at your desk too long?
It rarely settles on its own. It just gets good at hiding, until one wrong movement reminds you it's still there.
I've got two appointments left this Thursday 23rd July, 12pm and 6pm. After that I'm on leave from the 25th, and when I'm back I'm fully booked through to the 10th August.
So these two slots are genuinely your last chance to see me before mid-August. If that ni**le's been nagging, don't leave it three weeks, get it looked at while you still can.
They won't be there long. Grab one now, book at alisterboothosteopath.co.uk

If your back gets tighter as the day goes on, start with your setup.

This is one of the first things I’d check as an osteopath when someone’s low back pain flares at work: Seat, Screen, Soles.

This is for People with low back pain, struggling at work because they sit long periods of time.

Your low back often reacts to the shape you hold all day and the effort needed to stay there. A few small changes can shift the load fast.

Run this audit today:
• hips slightly higher than knees
• screen lifted to eye level
• feet fully supported

Save this so you can come back to it the next time your desk starts talking to your back.

If you'd like further help, advice or to book an appointment please visit my website.

For years I thought if enough people liked me, nobody would look closely enough to see what I was hiding.

Then I found the rule underneath it. And it stopped running me.
