Health Update: Health Update: Knutsford health and wellness event hailed huge success – What Experts Say– What Experts Say.
The town’s health and wellbeing specialists teamed up to offer residents and visitors a varied programme suitable for all ages, needs and abilities.
The event, now in its third year, brought the community together.
This year’s theme was ‘Nurturing mind, body and soul’.
The week began with Re-Fresh Knutsford, a vibrant community fair at St John’s Church and Knutsford Methodist Church.
Visitors explored a variety of local clubs, groups, volunteer opportunities, and wellbeing businesses and discovered new ways to get involved in the community.
People took part in a programme of free and discounted taster sessions, including Pilates, yoga, boxing, circuit training, massage, sound baths, and hypnotherapy.
Health checks and screenings were also available, covering dry eye care, oral health, osteopathy, cardiovascular wellness, hearing tests, and musculoskeletal assessments.
Specialist talks covered nutrition, menopause, infant and child food, posture, and relationship coaching.
