Group | Cure Eczema Forever

Here we have an amazing bunch of people who inspire me each and every week.Westbrook Wellness is very pleased to work with and see the self help support group Live Well with COPD achieve very encouraging results in their bi-annual, 6 minute walk test.
In the video clip you see part of one training protocol I have developed for the group, designed to be challenging yet achievable to the majority, while maintaining functional relevance to improve or maintain cardiorespiratory fitness.

If you know of anyone who suffers with COPD this groups are local to Gosport, hold regular social events, have a great sense of humour and are very welcoming. I would highly recommend them to anyone with COPD.

My sessions are Fridays 1200-1300 at Gosport Leisure Centre. Please feel free to pop by.

The results.

50 total participants tested.
- 27 of which had experienced 1 or more exacerbations this past winter.
- We had previous data for 19 of the total 50 participants.
Of these 19 participants
- 11 covered a significant greater distance
- 6 covered the same distance as before
- 20% of participants had less than a 5% increase in heart rate over the 6 minutes.

Happy New Year and look forward to this year’s first session on the topic of Skincare for Kids.

22 Jan Friday Eczema talk lunch on skincare for kids

Skincare for young children is important as they are able to understand skincare, and have to take care of their own skin for those who are schooling. Young children may also resist moisturizing and parents have to teach children how to moisturize and understand its benefits. Children who are in primary school also have to be aware some of the school activities that may trigger their eczema flare-ups and learn the basics of managing their eczema in school.

The speaker for this session is dermatology nurse Sister Wong, who is the Senior Nurse Educator at National Skin Center and trained in Dermatology and STI (Sexually Transmitted Infections) Nursing in UK. She had spent many years in the inpatient nursing care in CDC and currently based in outpatient services in National Skin Centre. She is also in charge of training programmes for the nurses in Dermatology.
