Tai Chi – moving with grace
“Tai chi is an ancient Chinese tradition that, today, is practised as a form of exercise. It involves a series of movements performed in a slow, focused manner and accompanied by deep breathing”.

Due to its low impact, putting minimal stress on muscles & joints, Tai Chi is generally safe for people of all ages & fitness levels. Its benefits can include:
- Increased Muscle strength
- Increased Flexibility
- Stress reduction
- Improved balance, decrease in falls
- Enhanced overall sense of well being
Pardon the pun, but the other great flexibility of Tai Chi is that it can be done by yourself, with a partner, in small or large groups, with an instructor, in person or online, at home or in public, indoors or outdoors. Also, the cost is minimal or free, the time invested is your choice, no special equipment or clothing. What’s not to like about Tai Chi?
Exercise is one of the critical areas that the carers from InPlace Care can assist clients. Contact us today to find out more.

Caring for a loved one also means caring for yourself.
Many people in unpaid roles do not identify themselves as carers & may not fully understand the need for self-care. Carers may experience feelings of loneliness, isolation & even resentment. Carers can feel that their needs should be secondary to the person requiring care & will not seek advice, assistance or additional support.
When the carer’s needs are ignored, it can have a significant impact on their wellbeing.
