This is an appreciation post for the fabulous Ciara at Physio Éireann 💕
Six weeks ago I was terrified to start lifting weights, but at 41 I knew I had to. Future me is depending on it!!
I have pins in both my arms, three mesh insertions in my tummy, I’ve had a disc replacement in my neck, gallbladder surgery and a pituitary tumour that messes with my hormones on a daily basis - trust me when I say that I didn’t think I could do this 😂😂
But here I am lifting weights that 21 year old me would be proud of 💪 and 61 year old me will thank me for!
Physio Eireann do trojan work for our community. Physiotherapy services, Pilates classes, StrongHER classes, chair Pilates classes, women’s health services…. The list goes on! But I want to highlight the incredible knowledge and care that those services are provided with - it is second to none.
Studio S are beyond proud to have these guys as part and parcel of the furniture here 😂 and we’re all so lucky to have such a service locally.
So guys, take it from me… I was scared of hurting myself, scared of how weak I was, scared of not doing it…. Scared of everything 😂😂 And here I am now in a few short weeks feeling more proud of myself than I have been in a very long time.
Ciara, thank you for your knowledge, encouragement and support for me personally and to the team at Physio Eireann - thank you for being here for our community 💕
