When you feel overwhelmed your body can become very warm as it starts to prepare for the threat response.
Try holding some ice or ice packs on your wrists to support grounding your nervous system.
Ice can calm the nervous system both by signalling to the brain to slow down your heart rate , distracting you from feelings of panic and focus your feelings onto your body and immediate surroundings.
We love these sensory water bead packs as they can double up as a fidget toy as they begin to warm after being held. These are reusable ice packs for injuries but work so well in our therapy rooms.

CK Therapy was proud and thankful to feature in Ashby Life magazine this month; keep an eye out for the September issue page 48. We can’t believe it’s been 4 years of CKTherapy, 3 years based in Ashby de la Zouch and 1 at our wonderful base on north street. Thank you for all the support and a beautiful town to work from.
