FALL INTO HEALTHY HABITS THIS AUTUMN

Just as spring is a time for rebirth, autumn is also considered a transitional season. For many of us it is a favourite time of year, but for others it can be a trigger to falling off the health and fitness wagon. After all, how can you be expected to ignore pumpkin spice lattes?!

Autumn is a great time to start a fitness programme because you are going to create good habits for the festive season and the upcoming winter months. We have got plenty of support, guidance and motivation for you over the forthcoming months.

Take a look at the newsletter. We are here to help!

Kind Regards,

The Wellbeing and Fitness Team

DO YOU SUFFER FROM FOOT, KNEE OR BACK PAIN?

BOOK YOUR FOOT & GAIT SCAN NOW!*

A comprehensive gait assessment allows your Wellbeing Coach to determine if your feet are having a negative impact on the way that you stand, walk, run and move especially if you have foot related problems such as knee, hip and back pain.

The assessment includes a foot scan using the GaitScan Computerized Analysis.

A report will be generated by the GaitScan software that your coach will review and recommend a treatment plan. Performance custom orthotics may be recommended as a non-invasive treatment of foot-related problems such as knee, hip, and back pain.

They also may be helpful in treating bunions, corns, hammertoes, sore arches, plantar fasciitis, sore ankles, shin splints and more.

Sign up before the end of October to receive your complimentary Gait Scan

SPECIALIST THERAPIES ON ZOOM

CLAIRVOYANT READINGS - £85 for 50 minutes

Sandi Clark Mayes is currently available for Zoom readings which can be booked at Fitness in Tring– she has been doing clairvoyant readings at Champneys Tring, and the other resorts for over 16 years She also works in person and on Zoom in Dubai, Australia, New Zealand and France. She was trained in mediumship at the Arthur Findlay College in the UK. Her readings are tailored to the needs and requirements of each client. She also teaches mediumship at both foundation and advanced levels.

Sandi has the ability to sense the mental, emotional and physical processes of people. In that way she gathers information about the past, present and future potential of her client (categoric future telling is illegal in the UK) in order that they have a clearer understanding of themselves, how they are affected by other people, what is going on in their lives, their calife purpose and their potentials and abilities. She can look at specific areas of a person’s life if that is wanted. If it is acceptable to her client, Sandi is also able to connect with those who have passed on, identifying them and passing on any messages or answers to client’s questions.

Sandi lives with her husband Mike on the Roseland in Cornwall and so was only available once a month pre-pandemic. Due to lockdown, she has discovered that all elements of a reading work equally well on Zoom and a big advantage is that clients can have a video recording of their reading included in the price. Zoom means that she is now able to be available five days a week for Champneys clients.

DEEP ENERGY HEALING - £85 FOR 50 MINUTES, £ 45 FOR 25 MINUTES

Mike Mayes is now available for Zoom deep energy healing which can be booked at Fitness in Tring - he has been doing Deep Energy Healing sessions at Champneys Tring and the other resorts for 9 years– he also works in person and on Zoom in Dubai, Australia, New Zealand and France. He was trained at the Arthur Findlay College attending several courses a year for ten years. Each session is carried out based on the healing needs of the individual client. He carries out this all-encompassing therapy which - mentally, physically, emotionally and energetically - relaxes, re-conditions, repairs, rejuvenates, re-energises and balances. You stress and anxiety levels will be reduced, your quality of life improved and you will experience better sleep patterns. The effects of this treatment are on-going, and you will be given information about what healing was needed, why it was needed and what action you can take to avoid re-occurrence of the blockages and imbalances.

Mike lives with his wife Sandi on the Roseland in Cornwall, and pre-pandemic was only available to Champneys clients once a month. However, during lockdown he discovered that his healing worked equally well on Zoom – healing energy knows no limitations of distance. His treatments are now available five days a week to Champneys clients.

Foam rolling involves applying your own body weight to a foam cylinder, using small repetitive undulating movements to exert pressure on the muscle.

TRAINING

With whole-body vibration, you stand, sit or lie on a machine with a vibrating platform. As the machine vibrates, it transmits energy to your body, forcing your muscles to contract and relax dozens of times each second.

TRX is a form of suspension training that uses body weight exercises to develop strength, balance, flexibility and core stability simultaneously.

LEARN TO... STRENGTHEN THE CORE

Strong core muscles make it easier to do most physical activities....

Strong core muscles are also important for athletes, such as runners, as weak core muscles can lead to more fatigue, less endurance and injuries.

LEARN TO USE... KETTLEBELLS

Revamp your workout and build strong and toned muscles with kettlebell training. The dynamic nature of the kettlebell will give you an all-in-one workout of a lifetime, combining both strength and cardio aspects.
