Do you feel like your dog takes you on a walk, not the other way around!? 🐩

If your four-legged friend is a puller (Rocky, put your paw up!), it’s not just your patience that’s tested — it’s your back too.

Repeated pulling strains your spine, twists your posture, and creates tightness you’ll feel long after the walk is over.

If you want some advice on how to walk your dog without wrecking your back then please reach out!

With love,
Richard & Rocky 🐾

Thank you for your review Gary, we are thrilled to hear about your progress and that shockwave therapy has made such a positive impact on your recovery. It's wonderful to know that Jack's support and the exercises he's provided have contributed to your journey back to running. Thank you for recognizing Sophie's efforts in accommodating your schedule as well. We're here to support you every step of the way as you work towards being 100% again. Your feedback is greatly appreciated! ❤

This weekend we were out in the local community to give advise on good posture and information on getting on top of those aches and pains that people so commonly get stuck with, not knowing what steps to take to resolve.

It was lovely meeting lots of new people and saying hello to many people that we already know 🙌

Luckily the weather came good and we just dodged a few showers under the gazebo 😀

Problems with Posture? Read This!

Most of us have a posture problem — whether we admit it or not. Sitting at the desk, scrolling on the phone, and driving are slowly reshaping our spines, leading to stiffness, tension, and long-term joint wear. 😬

One of the best things that you can do for your back is to get a proper desk setup.

✅Start with a proper, supportive chair so that you can sit upright.
✅Ideally the height of your knee is below the height of your hips
✅Sitting upright in the chair, adjust your monitor so that the top of the screen is at eye level.
✅Keep your keyboard, mouse and notepad/pen close to you so that you aren't reaching out.

With a good desk setup, it's still a good idea to get up regularly and move about, to give those muscles and joints a breather!

Best wishes
Richard, Jack, Lawrence and Danielle

Did you know that sitting for long periods can be just as bad for your back as heavy lifting?

Keeping your spine moving is key to preventing stiffness and pain!

Regular breaks, getting up every 20 minutes to stand up and move around can make a real difference to preventing aches and pains.

Best wishes,
Richard, Jack, Lawrence and Danielle
