💙 MEET ELEANOR! 💙

She’s actually been part of the Core Restore team for a wee while now, but I’ve FINALLY managed to pin her down for a photo! 🙌🏼

So it’s about time we gave her a proper introduction and warm welcome to the team 👋

I first met Eleanor over a year ago when she was an attendee on an APPI Pilates Matwork 2 course I was teaching at Manchester Spire. Fast forward to today, and she’s now teaching alongside me at Core Restore 🤩

Eleanor is a physiotherapist and APPI-trained Pilates instructor with a fantastic background in musculoskeletal physiotherapy and sports medicine.

Her experience includes working with Lancashire Cricket Women’s squads & England Amputee Football, alongside her work in private physiotherapy practice.

She’s now bringing that knowledge and experience to some of our Monday & Tuesday evening Pilates classes, combining her physiotherapy expertise with a friendly, supportive approach to teaching.

One of the things that’s always been important to me at Core Restore is the quality of our teaching. Our classes aren’t just about following exercises or trawling out a prescriptive routine; they’re about understanding & responding to the people in front of us, adapting to individual needs and helping people build strength, confidence and resilience, so that their Pilates experience is a truly positive one.

And that’s exactly why I’m so pleased to have Eleanor join the team; If you’ve already met her, you’ll know what a lovely addition she is. And if you haven’t, please give her a big welcome! ❤️

Welcome aboard Eleanor 😘

Running Cath - Midlife & Menopause Expert might look pretty polished from the outside…

Classes, clinic, workshops, health advice, qualifications, the occasional award…

Behind it?

Not so much. A LOT of admin. A ridiculous number of emails when you take your foot off the pedal and have some time off; constant role switches between instructor, clinician, mummy; smoothies thrown in a blender as it’s quicker to drink lunch; Missed workouts; mum guilt from missing events, bedtimes and knowing I’m never going to have that time back with my babies…

And rather a lot of moments when I’m left wondering how exactly I’m supposed to practise all that ‘balance’ I spend so much time encouraging everyone else to find 🫠

I wouldn’t change it though (mostly 😉)❤️

Somewhere along the way this became about more than Pilates classes and Physio appointments.

Together we built a community ❤️❤️

The conversations, coffees, giggles, familiar faces week in week out, the friendships. The people who have trusted me with their health - and that of their family members & friends, and sometimes the really difficult stuff too ❤️

I’m grateful for it all.
What a privilege to have built a business, but created such an awesome and inspiring community along the way 🥰

This summer we’ve said a very reluctant ‘bye for now’ to the lovely Eva, who has decided to take a step back from teaching to give herself a little more space and balance alongside everything else in life.

It’s been such a privilege watching Eva develop from a new instructor finding her feet into the fantastic Pilates teacher she is today. Knowledgeable, thoughtful, encouraging (and always up for a bit of Core Restore madness 😂), she’s developed her own teaching style and built such a lovely relationship with her groups.

I know how much those groups are going to miss her - I certainly will too ❤️

It’s been an absolute pleasure having Eva as part of the Core Restore team and watching her confidence and experience grow over the last 12 months.

But hopefully this isn’t goodbye forever. For now, Eva is simply doing something we talk about a lot at Core Restore - recognising when life is a little too full and making changes to find a better balance. And I wholeheartedly support her in that.

Thank you for everything you’ve brought to Core Restore, Eva - your time, energy, commitment, friendship and all those hours of Pilates (and dressing up! 😂)

You’ll be very much missed, but there will always be a place for you here if and when the time feels right to come back 🥰

Lots of love from me and all your Core Restore crew Eva Clarke ❤️

Can I prove that being perimenopausal or where I was in my cycle caused this monster reaction?
Absolutely not ❌

Can my science brain consider research and plausibly explain why the reaction might’ve been as strong as it was?
Absolutely ✅

Women’s health researcher and author Lara Briden has written extensively about the relationship between oestrogen, mast cells and histamine during perimenopause.

Mast cells are immune cells that release histamine and other inflammatory mediators. Oestrogen can influence their activity and histamine release - and may also affect how quickly histamine is broken down.

Meanwhile, one of the earlier hormonal changes in perimenopause is often less consistent ovulation and therefore less progesterone; a hormone thought to have a more stabilising effect on mast cells.

So rather than simply “low hormones”, perimenopause can mean dramatic fluctuations in oestrogen, alongside diminishing progesterone exposure.

And that may help explain why some women in midlife experience:

⚠️worsening hay fever & allergies
⚠️ itchy/reactive skin
⚠️ new onset sensitivities
⚠️ migraines or flushing
⚠️ allergies generally behaving very differently

Then add my timing into the mix 🩸
I was right at the late-luteal/early-menstrual transition, with oestrogen and progesterone falling and inflammatory signalling changing.

Did that cause my enormous local reaction?

We simply can’t say.

But could the hormonal environment have been ripe to influence an already very normal immune response to venom?

That’s the fascinating question 👀

And it’s another reminder that perimenopause reaches far beyond periods and hot flushes: our ovarian hormones communicate directly with our immune, nervous, vascular and inflammatory systems too.
