We've included these news items to keep you informed about developments in the practice.

**London Marathon**

With the marathon only 5 weeks tomorrow, today was a big one for training. Time to finally get past the 30km barrier that keeps defeating me!!

I felt quite good the whole run and not only did I smash the 30km, but I also managed to break the 20 mile barrier!!! It wasn’t fast, it wasn’t pretty, but it got done!!

Just 6.2 more miles on the day!!

If anyone is feeling generous and would like to give me a boost, sponsorship for the amazing MS Society - a cause very dear to our family, would be greatly appreciated. Link below.

*Changes to pricing*

Effective from 2024 the cost of Osteopathic treatment will be £42 per session.

Keeping pricing low is important to me but due to recent changes to my costs I have had no choice but to increase my prices. However, hopefully you'll agree, it's still offering a fantastic service and great value for money!

**Website Update**

Those of you who have been to my website before will notice that it has had a full makeover!

Thank you to my son, Lewis, who has helped his computer novice mum, by fully updating and modernising the website. Thanks also go to my whole family for getting involved in the clinic renovation which is also well underway!

More exciting update to follow soon! 

*Changes to pricing*

Effective from 1st August 2022 the cost of Osteopathic treatment will be £39 per session.

I always try to keep my price as competitive as possible, but a small rise has become necessary. However, hopefully you'll agree, it's still offering a fantastic service and great value for money!

*Changes to Pricing*

Effective from 1st May 2021 the cost of Osteopathic treatment will be £37 per session. 

Sessions are approximately 30 minutes long and include discussing your reason for visiting, completing an assessment, carrying out treatment (where appropriate), and completing essential medical records. 

There will no longer be a reduced fee for patients aged under 18 years of age.

EXCITING NEWS!!!!!!! A NEW VENUE!!!!!!

Unfortunately, due to ongoing building works at Millwood Surgery, I have to leave my current practice on Friday 19th February 2021.

However, the good news is that I am pleased to announce that i will instead be working at Move PT Studio from 1st March 2021!!

Move PT studio is NOT a gym. It is a personal training studio which only provides trainer led programmes. This means having only small numbers of people using the studio at one time; a much more personalised service.

I have worked alongside some of the trainers at Move PT previously, and I am excited to be working more closely with them to offer both their clients and my patients a comprhensive program of recovery and rehabilitation.

My booking system has been updated and is now offering appointments at my new clinic from Monday 1st March 2021.

Where to find me:

MOVE PT Studio

Unit 8 Jones GC Way

Great Yarmouth

Norfolk

NR31 0GA

I look forward to seeing you there!!

UPDATE!!! FRIDAY 1ST JANUARY 2021!!

Firstly, HAPPY NEW YEAR to you all! I hope that 2021 will bring yourselves and your family great health and happiness.

Sadly, the next part of my update is the post I've not wanted to have to write. 

Due to the government placing the area under Tier 4 restrictions, my clinic at Nirvana fitness has been closed.

I will be continuing to work from my clinic at Millwood Surgery in Bradwell as I have during the previous lockdown, but obviously with the extra demand, appointments will be of limited availabiltiy.

Since there is currently no end date to the restrictions, I will continue to review the situation on a regular basis as further announcements are made.

My deepest apologies for the disruption caused, but I will continue to work my hardest to continue to offer the best service I can. 

Thank you for your understanding at these tricky times.

UPDATE!!!!! MONDAY 2nd NOVEMBER 2020

I'm very sorry to report that following the announcement of another national lockdown beginning on Thursday 5th November, my clinic at Nirvana Fitness will have to close.

I will be continuing to work at my clinic at Millwood Surgery in Bradwell, and have managed to open some extra appointments at Millwood on a Thursday to try to meet demand.

All patients whose appointment is affected should have recieved a text confirming the cancellation, and detailing my new clinic hours and how to re-book.

Thank you for your patience and understanding at this difficult time.

UPDATE!!! 22ND JULY 2020

Im so sorry but my clinic within Nirvana gym remains closed due to Coronavirus.

At this time I have taken the difficult decision to keep my clinic at Nirvana closed for safety reasons; due to the lack of ventilation. I have instead put on some extra clinics within Millwood surgery in Bradwell. 

All patients whose appointment has been cancelled at Nirvana will have priority until Friday 24th July.

Please keep an eye on my website and my facebook page for further updates.

COVID-19 update!!

Finally, after several weeks of waiting - I have re-opened my clinic at millwood surgery!!
