Newsletter: December 2024

Patrick Campbell • 28 November 2024

We’re into the Christmas countdown as the year draws to a close. Here’s the final update for the year from the team at Kube Medical.

Black Friday

Our special Black Friday Physiotherapy offer closes at 8am on Saturday 30th November. Book a New Patient, Reactivation or Review Physiotherapy appointment for just £30 via our online diary.


Advent Offers

If our Black Friday offer isn’t for you, you won’t have to wait long for our next special offer. We’ll be launching a special offer or giveaway on our Facebook and Instagram pages daily from 1st-24th December. Follow us to see the offers.


Opening Hours

We’ll be closed on Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, Boxing Day and New Year’s Day. The rest of the holiday period, we’ll be open during our normal working hours. However, many of our practitioners are taking time off, so please book your treatment in early to make sure you get your appointment.

Kube Medical | Late 2024 Students

Student Physiotherapy

We’re a little over half way through Will, Jennely (pictured with Pearl, and Worcester University Lecturer, David) and Charlie’s placements. It’s not too late to book appointments with the students for £10 via our online diary.


We’re expecting our next cohort of students to arrive on 20th January 2025. Register your interest and we’ll let you know when their availability goes live.

Product of the month - Bottle of Vitamin D3 & K2 Liquid 30ml

What does Vitamin D3 do?

Vitamin D3 plays a vital role in our bone health. Without this vitamin, we cannot absorb calcium from our diet which is essential for strong bones and teeth, as well as a healthy, balanced immune system.


Low vitamin D levels are very common in the UK population during the winter months. Strong sun (over UV3 index) to exposed skin with no sun lotion on can produce up to 20,000 iu in 30 mins. This can only happen in the UK in the summer from April to September, 11AM-4PM (your shadow needs to be shorter than you to make vitamin D). Our 4000 iu sub-lingual tablets are like a daily dose of 5 minutes of strong sunshine. 


Why is vitamin K2 added?

When vitamin D levels are optimal you maximally absorb calcium from your diet. Vitamin K2 effectively turns on bone cells which then pull calcium into the bone, which is critical for long term bone strength and density.


All the best,

Sam, Patrick and the Team at Kube Medical

Kube Medical | Clinical Integrity
by Patrick Campbell 14 June 2025
Like many businesses in healthcare, we sometimes receive feedback that is difficult to read — not because it challenges us, but because it doesn’t reflect the care and intention with which our team works every day. Recently, a negative review was shared online that has been mentioned by both current and prospective patients. While we always value constructive feedback and use it to review our processes, I wanted to take a moment — from my perspective as a non-clinical Director — to clarify how we work, and the values that guide our decisions when it comes to patient care.

As a Physiotherapist with over six years of experience working with athletes, I've encountered a pattern that’s all too familiar — the dedicated, driven sports person who finds themselves stuck in limbo after an injury. One particular case stands out, and it’s a scenario I see frequently, especially with individuals recovering from sports injuries in Swindon.

Every so often, I come across someone who’s been told, or believes, they have cervical kyphosis. It’s a term that sounds serious and often sparks fear, confusion, or a sudden identity shift: “I have a curved neck; I must be broken.” Today, I saw just that—someone on social media seeking help after self-diagnosing with cervical kyphosis.
