Have you thought about what you’ll eat in the days after surgery? 🍲

In this snippet from our most recent Surgery Ready workshop, nutritionist Tracy Davies shares a few simple tips for preparing meals ahead of time, so you have one less thing to worry about while you recover.

We really enjoyed bringing people together for this workshop, and it’s something we want to keep doing, giving people the chance to ask questions, learn from our practitioners and feel more prepared.

Our next workshop is coming up in December, and we’ll be talking about osteoporosis and bone health. Tracy will be joining us again to chat about nutrition and how it fits into the bigger picture of looking after your bones.

More details coming soon! ❤️

Osteoporosis is often associated with women, but did you know that around 1 in 5 men over 50 will experience an osteoporotic fracture, too?

Bone loss can happen without obvious symptoms, meaning many people don’t realise there’s a problem until a fracture occurs.

So, what can you do now to protect your bones? Strength training, weight-bearing exercise and balance work can all play a role in supporting bone health, maintaining strength and reducing the risk of falls.

At MD Health, we’ve seen encouraging changes in bone density among our over-50s clients who combine clinical Pilates with strength training three times a week, including clients living with osteoporosis.

That’s why our Stronger Bones Program focuses on more than just exercise. Each program is tailored to the individual, helping people with osteoporosis or low bone density build strength, improve balance and feel more confident in everyday life.

A 5% increase in bone density in just 12 months. 💪

When MD Health client Sian was diagnosed with osteoporosis, she started looking into what else she could do for her bone health. After introducing strength training and impact exercise, her bone density increased by over 5%, surprising both her GP and endocrinologist.

In this episode of The Confident Body Show, Sian and Michael Dermansky discuss why the right type of exercise matters, how to build strength safely, and why an osteoporosis diagnosis doesn’t mean you’re powerless to make a difference.

🎧 Listen to the full episode (Via our website) to hear Sian’s story and learn more about what you can do for your bone health.

Living with osteoporosis and not sure where to start?

Listen to MD Health's senior physiotherapist and founder, Michael Dermansky speak with Ahron Young at Ticker News about the role of strength training in supporting bone health, particularly for women going through menopause and people living with osteoporosis or low bone density.

Hip replacement surgery can make a huge difference when it’s the right option for you, but the work you do before and after surgery matters just as much.

Building strength, improving your fitness and preparing your body beforehand can help you feel more confident going into surgery. And afterwards, progressive rehabilitation helps you rebuild the strength, balance and function you need for everyday life.

Recovery looks different for everyone, so it’s not about comparing your progress to someone else’s.

That’s why, at MD Health, we build personalised clinical Pilates and strength training programs tailored to your body, your needs and your goals.

Even when you’re training in a group, your program is still tailored to you. You might make new friends along the way, but instead of comparing your progress, you’ll be there to support and encourage one another!

If you have hip arthritis or a hip replacement surgery coming up, send us a DM to find out whether our Surgery Ready Program or the Strong & Confident Joints - Arthritis Program is for you.

It’s always nice to hear how exercise is making a difference in someone’s everyday life.

Being able to feel stronger, steadier and more confident in your body can make such a difference, especially when back or joint pain has started getting in the way.

And you don’t have to do it alone. Sometimes having someone there to guide you, adjust things when needed and keep you moving makes all the difference.

If you’ve been feeling a little less confident in your strength or balance lately, it might be time to do something about it. 😊 Send us a DM to find out more!

Are you really getting the results you want in your group classes?

Research shows that women over 50 need enough resistance to stimulate bone growth, something generic programs often miss. Without personalised guidance, it’s easy to plateau, risk injury, or miss the results you want.

At MD Health, we personalise your program, combining clinical Pilates for core control with strength training for functional power — tailored to your body, your goals, and your long-term health.

❌ Stop settling for generic programs in 2026. Invest in your personalised path to strength and confidence.

This is what happened to one of our clients who came with persistent hip pain.
She’d tried everything, stretches, massage, even another practitioner, but nothing seemed to help.

On the surface, it looked like a hip issue. But when we did a Full Body Assessment, the real story appeared: a new lumbar disc bulge was actually the source of her symptoms.

Her hip was strong and stable, it wasn’t the problem this time.

Without assessing the whole body, we might have treated the wrong area and missed what was really going on.

That’s why every new client that comes to MD Health starts with a Full Body Assessment.

Because sometimes… it’s not where it hurts, it’s what’s connected to it.
🩻 Understanding the full picture means getting the right diagnosis and a plan that truly works.
