New for January 2022.

A complete post holiday detox programme,, consisting of:
• An initial consultation – about 60 mins
• A full package of all required supplements
• Ongoing Q&As via email / social media

NutriClean Programme is a complete 14-day package to help clients by reducing their exposure to toxins and supporting clearance pathways.

The NutriClean programme has been upgraded as we are replacing the antioxidant formula Celapro, which will still be available individually, with our new formula Glutathione Plus. Glutathione can play an important role in supporting removal of toxins throughout the body and can be depleted in times of additional toxin exposure.

Since its introduction Glutathione Plus has proved itself to be very popular, so much so that we couldn’t let the NutriClean programme go ahead without including this formula. Glutathione Plus contains 250mg of Setria® glutathione which has been combined with a synergistic blend of milk thistle, curcumin, alpha lipoic acid, green tea and selenium. Together they provide a unique, targeted formulation that may help protect the body from oxidative damage.

Please get in touch for further information or to book.

Latest News From Sports Relief and Pamper Relief.

Ab Stretching – The Back Rotators

Had a few clients at the  clinic lately presenting wit this one.  A pain or soreness in the sides of the Abs as a result of a strain in the rotator muscles, the Obliques or even the QL.

Usually a result of an awkward loaded reach sch as bending to pick up a child – or even picking up a baby whilst lying down.

Here’s a gentle stretch that we do for it.  The video#’s not my work, but the site has done such a good job that I thought I’d link you across to it!

You may need to ease up on the strenuous training for a while too and/or have short course of massage.

Essential Oils – Peppermint

In sports therapy we are not quite as relaxing as they are over in the Aromatherapy department.  But we do appreciate the benefits of essential oils.  Mike uses a special blend of oils that produce a muscle relaxing, pain reducing, restorative effect.

Following on from last episode’s article on AllSpice, another ingredient in Mike’s ‘secret’ pain relieving combination is Peppermint.

Peppermint essential oil gives a cooling sensation and has a calming effect on the body, which can relieve sore muscles when used topically.  Clinically speaking, peppermint oil is recommended for its anti-nausea benefits and soothing effects on the gastric lining and colon because of its ability to reduce muscle spasms.

Not only is peppermint one of the oldest European herbs used for medicinal purposes, other historical accounts date its use to ancient Chinese and Japanese folk medicine. It’s also mentioned in Greek mythology the nymph Mentha was transformed into an herb by Pluto who had fallen in love with her and wanted people to appreciate her for years to come.

The health benefits of peppermint oil as well as peppermint oil uses have been documented back to 1,000 BC and have been found in several Egyptian pyramids.

In future letters I will go through the others contents in Mike’s Sports Therapy Oil.
