A little belated but I was on RTV Marbella radio – the Mi Marbella show with Nicole King. You can listen to the show here! (My bit starts at about 14 minutes in) and in case the technology fails me (come on, you know me and technology by now right?!) here is the link to someone else’s page to listen to the show. You can follow Nicole and find out…

Do you get pain you can’t explain? Tingling and strange sensations throughout your body? Do you have hormone imbalances, digestive issues or often “just don’t feel right”? Has this been going on for some time and getting progressively worse? Your nervous system may be to blame. Every single action in your body is controlled by your nerves, from your lungs inflating to your digestive system producing the right enzymes to…
Just briefly, and this is fair warning, I’m going to jump on my hobby horse. It’s one I feel really passionate about. When looking for medical help in the UK, no one would think to check their practitioner’s qualifications. The UK is well regulated and many professional titles are legally protected from misuse. Here in Spain however it is a different story. There is less legislation and therefore it is…
Gardening has to be one of the quintessential British pastimes. And while the heat and dryness here make it quite different from the “green and pleasant land” in the UK it is certainly easier to spend time outside. But rolling lawns and terrace pots require physical work. Those gorgeous terracotta pots weigh a tonne when empty! Put soil and a plant in them and you can feel like you need…
This ladies (and it really is only ladies!) is the $64,000 dollar question. And I realise that the future of my mortgage payments and any hope I have of upgrading my Golf to a convertible rides on the answer to this question! And the answer is . . . . . . Yes. But it helps it doesn’t cure. So this is how it works – underneath the skin, all…

Here is an A-Z of everything you need to know about the knee Arthroscopy An operation to “clean” inside the knee joint. Only about a 3% success rate but…
Just like your brain you need to keep your feet active to keep them in the best health. The more flexible your feet the better your balance and the less likely you are to fall. Here in Spain most of us spend at least some time walking on sand which is fantastic for getting your foot muscles (and calf and thigh!) working. But, if you can’t feel the sand…
Back by popular demand! If you have to wear flip flops these are the ones to wear. Obviously my favourite is still trainers with your orthotics in them but . . . . these are a close second. Please give me a call or send me an email for prices and delivery schedule as it depends a little on the demand.
Try exercises to strengthen your Pelvic Floor A recent survey of 3,000 women in doctor’s waiting rooms found that almost half had experienced incontinence in the past month. 80% of teenage girls wet themselves while trampolining! It doesn’t have to be that way, exercise your Pelvic Floor. Your pelvic floor is a sheet of muscle that is like a hammock between your legs. This hammock supports the contents of your abdomen…
