As we enter a lovely long family weekend, parents remember when your children as having a massive meltdown over nothing, it is a hypo-glycemic crash from all the chocolate their grandparents gave them and then went home. The grandparents are secretly paying you back for the meltdowns you had, you’re welcome. On the plus side cacao is a rich source of magnesium which it turns…
Folate, folic acid, pretty much the same thing right? Wrong, oh so wrong. Luckily for you, we have a video lasting all of 2 minutes and 40 seconds, to explain it all.

If there is one thing in clinic with babies and kids that makes me nervous, it is when they are floppy with low tone. The implications are not good, but one thing that is more common now than before as a cause, is our old friend vitamin B12 deficiency. The reality is people’s diets are awful, loaded up on highly processed junk food. Plus, we…

You’ve been at work all day, you’re tired, you have managed to get to bed early, you’re asleep and then……. Your legs decide to go for a walk. Restless leg syndrome is no laughing matter. Good quality sleep is critical for healing and energy in the day. Tired in the day = poor food choices (too much sugar and carbs plus caffeine), less exercise and…
hese simple videos help you understand why our supplements are not your average supplements compared to high street and other practitioner brands that do not understand the needs of the Neuro-mechanical practitioner.
