Gah.
Hello. I’m typing this feeling just a little bit sheepish. You see, yesterday, I sneezed. A Lot. And when I sneeze it’s not your usual achoo, it’s ACHOO, ACHOO, ACHOO….. complete with startled neighbours. I sneeze loud and violently.

Hello. Last week I had three pregnant clients mention they had back pain sitting at their computer. Here’s the tip I gave them.

Hello. I tell nearly all of my clients about this piece of kit. I was told about it by a wonderful physio when I was pregnant so I figured I’d share with everyone I met. Unfortunately, sometimes it’s a little difficult to find. But I’ve got some…. Here’s my vid introducing the Dentons Pregnancy Pillow. [...]
