On Saturday 6 June, Luck’s Yard Clinic in Milford hosted a taster day from 11am-1pm to celebrate its second anniversary.  The therapists were there to offer treatments as well as introductory talks on posture and acupuncture to support MS Therapy Group (Guildford).

The trouble started with a sharp and persistent shooting pain in one side of my head - from the base of the skull at the back to just behind my left eye.  It was continuous, but became even more acute if I bent forward, or tried to pick things up from the floor.  Coughing or sneezing was devastating.  I couldn’t think, read, or drive.  I couldn’t even put my shoes on.

Whether it’s forcing them into those oh-so-beautiful shoes that are just a bit too tight or simply neglecting the most basic of maintenance tasks, sometimes our feet take a right old battering.  As part of the annual Feet for Life month in July, the Society of Chiropodists and Podiatrists is raising awareness of all aspects of foot care and foot health, with a special focus on the issue of Diabetes and Foot Care.

This is a great time of year to be eating seasonal and locally produced vegetables and fruits. Our changeable climate provides us with a wealth of nutritious and delicious fruit, vegetables, meat and seafood all grown or produced in the UK.
