I have been enjoying the tele - health sessions during the COVID lockdown. It is a convenient and motivating way to continue to stay fit. What works is I get expert advice on any injuries or soreness that may be preventing me getting the most out of my fitness regime. I also enjoy the accountability of having to show up, as it helps me to continue to keep my health and fitness in balance during this challenging time.

I had been suffering from radicular pain down my leg due to a bulging disc for a long time and this was interrupting my day to day life as well as my sleep. After consulting Health in Balance over a three week period, pain had significantly reduced and my function is about 90% better than what it was previously. Three months into my exercise rehab i continue to improve in strength, function and am enjoying uninterrupted sleep. I am amazed at the improvement and am virtually pain free now.

Working with my exercise physiologist over the past 10 months has been a challenging but a rewarding experience. He has helped me gain greater insight into my chronic fatigue syndrome while instilling me with strategies to manage it. Heath in balance's environment has been one of support, encouragement and guidance which has aided in times where my chronic fatigue has exacerbated. They have been consistently positive and continue to provide me with much strength and optimism. My exercise physiologist is patient and understands my need to maintain my training which is vital to my recovery process. He has been truly committed to working with me and I look forward to continue to work with him while focusing on overcoming my current health/training restrictions.

I have been plagued by back problems over many years and more recently by a recurrence of neck soreness and swollen and painful knees. Health in Balance has provided a comprehensive program to address all these issues compared to the ‘piecemeal’ interventions that I have received in the past. The exercises have been carefully selected and graded to meet my current level of fitness while gradually extending my strength. I am enjoying a noticeably increased range of movement throughout my body and feel confident to attempt exercises that I previously regarded as beyond my ability.

It was with some reservation and anxiety that I agreed to attend Health in Balance to see an exercise physiologist. However these feelings disappeared fast as my exercise physiologist conducted my initial assessment. His professional and approachable manner put me at ease. Over the past 6 months, his encouragement and his firm yet non-judgmental approach has given me the confidence to work on my exercise program and make adjustments to my eating habits. He works with my strengths and with his constructive positive feedback he pushes me to want to do better I wouldn’t hesitant to recommend Health in Balance.

Hi, I’m Jenny - I have been doing the zoom group sessions for some time now. Each time we have a lockdown (and we have had our fair share!) I’ve been more than happy to continue our group sessions via zoom. I do two sessions a week and my sessions are usually with my fellow clinic buddy. It’s always great to see a familiar face and smile and catch up with what’s been happening with each other. Of course it’s great to see our EP as well and find out what he’s been up to. When not in lockdown, as well as doing my clinic sessions, I play golf once a week and bowls a couple of times a week, so having a zoom class twice a week is a great way to get the exercise that I would usually do with golf and/or bowls. One of the benefits of doing the zoom sessions is that it gets you going in the morning and I always feel much better afterwards. I really look forward to doing my zoom sessions each week.

I have suffered with a great deal of stiffness and intermittent pain in my neck and back for some years now, owing primarily to my poor posture and lack of physical exercise. Health in Balance have provided me with a series of exercises which I complete once per week at the clinic, and a separate program that I can complete at home on a more regular basis. The result has been a very marked improvement, and I am able to once again sleep uninterrupted, free of pain. I also feel more energetic!
