Cheltenham ladies day has been in our diary for the last 6 months! Many of our clients go year on year to glam up in their classiest outfits and join a stylish crowd to enjoy the very best in horse racing. Here are our top tips to get well and truly race ready…
4 weeks to go:
Cut down on refined sugars, excess carbs, and alcohol. No one wants to feel bloated and heavy on race day, so banish those foods that make your body hold on to extra water. If you struggle to stay disciplined, book a free consultation with our Registered Nutritionist, Rosie Letts, to help guide you in the right direction. Rosie offers a free initial 20-minute phone consultation to delve into your health history and explain what actions you will need to take to achieve your goals. Find out more >

More top tips:
- Remember to de-fuzz! Wax a day or two before or book your laser appointment 2 weeks before race day so your hairs are falling out!
- Don't forget to exfoliate and moisturise your body regularly. This will stimulate blood circulation for healthy looking skin.
- Body brush twice a day, everyday! This will increase removal of the toxins in your body and help with any dimpling in the skin.
- Epsom salt baths, once or twice a week, can really help to detoxify your body. Its great for aches and pains too!
- Drink lots of water (flavour it with fruit if you need to!) Your body is made up of over 70% water, boost hydration levels in your body and every organ will thank you! Especially the largest one, your skin.
