The Olympic Torch visits our North London neighbourhoods and ends up in Alexandra Palace close to Muswell Hill on July 25.

With the Olympics just around the corner, the Olympic Torch is due to make its way from Finchley, in the Borough of Barnet, to Alexandra Palace, near Muswell Hill on July 25.

People in different boroughs will dress in different colours while the torch travels through their area – and in Haringey the colour is white.

The Torch will pass through some well-known local areas around Muswell Hill Chiropractic Clinic including Finchley, Frien Barnet, Southgate, Palmers Green, Winchmore Hill, Edmonton, Tottenham,  Wood Green and Crouch End before winding its way through to Alexandra Palace. More than 4,000 people are expected to enjoy an Evening Celebration at Alexandra Palace to round off the day.

With such a great sporting event coming to London this summer, it may encourage more of us to include exercise in our daily lives. While the benefits of exercise are widely reported many of us struggle to find the time or sometimes the necessary motivation to do any.

If you’ve been struggling to get active, here are some tips for incorporating more activity into your daily life:

The amount of activity you need to do each week depends on your age. Here’s a useful link to the NHS choices website which will help you work out what your optimum activity level needs to be. http://www.nhs.uk/Livewell/fitness/Pages/Activelifestyle.aspx

Remember, if you have a particular condition, before you start any new exercises, always check with your medical doctor, chiropractor or other appropriate registered healthcare professional to make sure the exercises are right for you.
