Leaving with a Full Heart from Staff Member Nessa

After 15 amazing years at Green Apple Wellness Centre, it’s time for me to begin a new chapter. What a journey it has been! I have loved every minute spent with our wonderful Team and with you, our incredible Members. You’ve made this place feel like home, and I’ll always treasure the laughs, stories, and special moments we’ve shared.
You’ve also shown me something truly special: with hard work and determination, you can achieve almost anything. Watching you set goals, push through challenges, and celebrate your wins has been inspiring - and a privilege to witness every day.
A huge heartfelt thank you to the Team - your support, friendship, and passion have made coming to work each day such a joy. I couldn’t have asked for a better group of people to share this journey with.
If you know me, you know I wear my heart on my sleeve - so yes, saying goodbye is tough! But I’m leaving with a full heart, feeling grateful for everything Green Apple has given me.
Please keep doing what makes this place so special - encourage each other, laugh often, smile big, and enjoy the Green Apple as much as I always have.

Sending big hugs to you all,
With love and gratitude,
Nessa

National Pain Week - this week
How can helping yourself with the right exercise help you with the pain - our Exercise Physiologists can help you

Dealing with pain? You’re not alone, and structured exercise might just be the game-changer.

It’s National Pain Week, a moment to shine a light on the millions living with chronic pain — and a reminder: exercise isn't just for fitness; it’s medicine.

Prescribed exercise can help you manage persistent pain while improving your wellbeing. Here’s why this works for YOU:

- Strengthens and protects - building muscle around stiff joints makes everyday movement less painful.
- Calms pain signals - exercise helps rewire how the brain perceives pain, releasing natural pain-killing chemicals.
- Boosts your mood and energy - less fatigue, better sleep, and a happier mindset all help take the edge off discomfort
