Exercise and Happiness: An Under-Discussed Secret

The link between exercise and happiness is already well established, but the importance of this link is not.

For those interested in understanding what contributes to a joyful life, I would argue an absolute imperative is regular exercise as the scientific literature seems comprehensive in its findings.

Often, we discuss philosophical principles, habits of thinking, and daily practices that happy individuals consistently engage in to lean towards more long-term joy. Eons of religious and spiritual traditions have discussed the psychology of an awakened or ‘realised’ individual, none of which have pointed to this secret.

The secret of exercise.

I was referred to Crawley Physiotherapy Clinic through my employer after suffering a back injury whilst trampolining. After the initial assessment, Kulraj was able to devise a programme to address the root cause of my back problem. I had 8 sessions in total - the treatment included exercises to be completed at home. Kulraj was friendly and professional during every session and I would recommend his services. After 8 weeks, my back is feeling better thanks to the treatment!

Crawley Physiotherapy Clinic was an absolute God send, not only did Kulraj help me with simple exercises that I did daily to realign my hips and shoulder but he gave me my life back. I never thought I would be pain free again, but I am. Thank you so very much, you have been AMAZING and I will most definitely recommend you to everyone I know!

Highly recommended! I had problems with my back and neck after car accident. After my first appointment with Kurlaj I knew that I have finally found someone who genuinely cares about me and my wellbeing. Treatment received was very effective and enabled me to resume weightlifting in a very short time.What I liked the most is his holistic approach to health and the fact that Kurlaj doesn’t limit himself to treating obvious symptoms, he actually examines your body structure in depth and looks for the root causes so there are greater results!

I had such a great experience at Crawley Physiotherapy Clinic. Kulraj was fantastic with pin pointing what caused my injury and making sure I was stronger overall and treating my imbalances rather than just focusing on the injury itself. A few weeks later I'm pain-free and back to my training.

Crawley Physiotherapy clinic were excellent in helping me recover and alleviate the pain of a hip joint problem I had suffered from for 2 years prior to their treatment plan. I had seen many physios about this problem with no joy, the holistic approach by Kulraj was the only treatment that worked for me. I would highly recommend their professional and friendly service.

Crawley Physiotherapy Clinic offered a very friendly & professional service. Assisted with my lower back issues, giving great advice including exercises to continue at home. Symptoms have improved massively!

Crawley Physiotherapy Clinic - Kulraj is a highly competent and professional therapist. On the two occasions I have needed to see him they were complex conditions, resulting from years of neglect and a very intensive sports life as a teenager. With both conditions he quickly assessed and analysed the issue, identified what needs to be done, building a programme to address the issue, and then guided me through the programme execution. If you have a condition that you believe physio will help/resolve then do not hesitate to reach out to him.

I'd highly recommend.

After injuring my back / Rt sacroiliac joint I could barely move and even after a month I was in constant pain with no relief resting. My family were concerned so I checked out Physio clinics and trusting the reviews of Crawley Physiotherapy Clinic I made an appointment to see Kulraj and after just one session there was a remarkable improvement - I was able to bear weight again through my Rt leg and managed a night’s sleep.Kulraj suggested an exercise regime to follow between treatment sessions. I am now pain free and able to enjoy walking, gardening and even shopping!
