You may not have heard yet, but our wonderful DEXA Technician Melissa is expecting a baby! Today marks her final shift with us for a while as she prepares to begin her journey into motherhood.

Her expertise as a Clinical Naturopath and her dedication as our Marketing Coordinator have made a lasting impact.

Imagine your body is a house that needs energy to function properly and glucose is the electricity that powers the house. Insulin, which is a hormone produced by the pancreas is the key to unlock your front door, to let glucose into the house (cells) so it can be used for energy.

Sometimes the locks on the doors can become rusty and stiff, which makes it harder for insulin to open the door to glucose and eventually over time, the door stays closed and this may lead to diabetes mellitus (type 2 diabetes).

Is strength training the solution?

Strength training (also known as weight lifting or resistance exercise) increases muscle strength by making muscles work against a force or weight. Whilst building muscle and strength has traditionally been associated with body building, or for women “getting bulky” … the metabolic benefits is remarkable.
