Gentle Parenting

What is Gentle Parenting? Does it mean no disciplining, scolding and being lenient?

Marie Soh shares more about her personal experience raising three children in her household.

Gentle parenting is a parenting approach grounded in four central elements: respect, understanding, empathy, and boundaries. It’s rooted in research that shows strong and healthy bonds with their parents can improve a child’s long-term mental health and resilience.

Are you looking to tighten, firm, and tone your sk

Are you looking to tighten, firm, and tone your skin? Skin laxity often occurs as a result of pregnancy, weight loss, environmental factors and menopause-related hormonal fluctuations. Fortunately, there is a wide range of solutions available to help women tighten and firm their skin: 1. Firming Creams
Some firming creams can act as good moisturisers to plump up the skin. However, results are often temporary and do not tackle the root cause of the issue. It is unlikely the results will be sustainable or highly visible. 2. Massage
Massages can promote blood circulation and stimulate collagen, naturally promoting the skin to repair itself. However, it is more of a preventive solution rather than a treatment. 3. Cosmetic Surgery
Highly effective when it comes to tummy tuck, arm lift or excess skin lift, surgery is often a viable option however it comes with some level of risk (e.g. poor wound healing, infection) 4. Non-Invasive Solutions
These treatments typically involve the use of ultrasound & radiofrequency technology to penetrate into the deeper layers of the skin. This helps to promote the production of collagen, giving the skin an instant plump and lift after the session, without any downtime or surgery. If you’re looking for the perfect Skin Tightening solution, send us a DM and our friendly professionals will reach out to you. #looseskin #skinlaxity #postpartum #mummytummy #diastasisrecti #menopause #skintreatment

As we transition to perimenopause, we worry about

As we transition to perimenopause, we worry about a myriad of symptoms including: 1. Sleepless nights 😴 2. Skin and mood changes. ☹️😫😩😵‍💫 3. Another thing that’s at the top of our minds? Weight gain of course! A great way to maintain a healthy weight during this stage is to have a regular exercise routine. Nevertheless it’s important to be mindful that high impact exercises can contribute to the weakening of muscles and bones. Instead, you can opt for lower-intensity cardio, resistance and strength training or gentle weight lifting. Additionally, you can enhance your journey with our signature tummy toning technology for a leaner, more toned you! 💪 DM us for solutions. #perimenopause #menopause #sculpt #bellyfat #sgmummy #sgmummies

Senior Consultant, Janna Chan, doles out important

Senior Consultant, Janna Chan, doles out important tips on maintaining muscle strength as women navigate through hormonal changes. “As women naturally transition to various stages of life including perimenopause, the decline in estrogen levels may lead to a loss in muscle strength. This decline can often lead to conditions such as incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse and weaker core muscles.” Lifestyle modifications can go a long way in helping our bodies maintain strength. Additionally, we get to see more efficient and lasting results the earlier we start preparing.

We are all familiar with common symptoms of perime

We are all familiar with common symptoms of perimenopause such as hot flushes, mood swings and night sweats. However, have you heard of these 3 unusual symptoms? While quite common, many women often find themselves surprised when they start to notice skin changes, digestive issues, and loss of muscle tone during perimenopause. Here are some tips to help manage these conditions: 1. Skin Changes: Loose skin occurs with the loss of collagen, and is a natural part of ageing. It commonly occurs around the tummy, thigh and butt area. At Orchard Clinic, we use advanced treatment technology to tighten skin, remodel collagen, and improve skin quality and connective tissues. 2. Digestive issues: Simple lifestyle modifications can help to alleviate bloating and stomach discomfort. Avoid foods that can trigger digestive issues such as caffeine, alcohol and oily food. Meanwhile, increase intake of green vegetables and foods that are high in fibre to help with digestion. 3. We offer a combination of Floorwork sessions and advanced treatment technology to help tone, tighten and strengthen your muscles. Our services can be used to strengthen the pelvic floor muscles to prevent incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse, or to tone and tighten the abdominal muscles. Do DM us if you’re looking for a non-surgical, no injection, no down time and pain-free solution. #perimenopause #skinhealth #menopause #incontinence #sgmoms #sgfit

Have you been finding difficulty in strengthening

Have you been finding difficulty in strengthening and toning your abdominal muscles recently? As women transition into perimenopause, their metabolism levels decrease as oestrogen levels fall leading to a loss in muscle mass and for some, what is known as the menopause belly. Here are some routines for women to strengthen and tone their muscles. We recommend for all women to prepare for menopause by building muscle mass and ensuring positive lifestyle changes, well in advance! If you’re looking for effective solutions to help with muscle strengthening, learn more about how we can help at www.orchardclinic.com/treatments/menopause or DM us to find out more. #menopause #perimenopause #fitforlife #fit40s #reshapingwellness #journeywithoc
