Balanced Edinburgh

A brilliant evening at the Murrayfield Spire Hospital Q&A dinner with neurosurgeon Jothy Kandasamy discussing “The Confident Back.”

Our team had the opportunity to submit questions in advance, all of which were answered on the night, leading to some really interesting discussion around back pain, treatment and recovery.

A really informative evening with great food company. Thank you for having us!

Our acupuncturist Clare, recently led an in-house CPD session for the team on all things acupuncture, sharing her knowledge, experience and the role acupuncture can play alongside physiotherapy and rehab.

It was a really informative session and a great opportunity for the team to develop their understanding and ask questions…while also generously volunteering their knees to be needled!

Thanks Clare for a brilliant session.

Braid Hills Taster Classes

Due to the success of our first set of taster classes, we are running more Reformer Pilates taster sessions at our Braid Hills clinic. Led by Nina, these sessions will take place on Thursday 14th May at 10am, 6pm, and 7:05pm. They’re a great opportunity to try Reformer Pilates in a small-group setting before committing to a full block of classes. Suitable for complete beginners or for those who have done Reformer before. Come along and try a class!

We’re pleased to say that following her success at our Stockbridge clinic, Ailis Buchanan is now offering Osteopathy appointments at both our Braid Hills and Colinton Road clinics.

Osteopathy can help with a wide range of musculoskeletal issues through hands-on treatment designed to improve movement, reduce pain, and support overall wellbeing.

Booking is now open online.

Say hello to Becca Freeden! Our new women’s health physio who has started at our Braid Hills clinic on a Wednesday.

As well as being an experienced women’s health / pelvic health physio, Becca has a special interest in osteoporosis and is currently working towards a PhD which explores bone health in perimenopause, a time of life when bone density is known to reduce.

Becca will also be speaking at the Queen Margaret University Lydia X Osteoporosis symposium on 20th May.

Booking is now open online to see Becca at The Braids clinic.
