Our Story

“YES - that’s it, well done!” says an excited Shelly when Alice is able to squat keeping her knees in alignment. Alice is excited too, she never thought she would be able to squat without searing knee pain.

Moving over to Jim, Shelly discusses the exercise plan they put in place to better manage his diabetes. “I feel that I have more energy since I have started walking for 30 minutes every day. Now my wife is joining me and it is a pleasure, not a chore. Interestingly my blood glucose levels are looking really stable” says Jim. They high five his success in changing his daily habits before starting the fitness test to measure just how much Jim’s fitness has improved.

Later that morning, the music for the group exercise class is energetic and Loris is singing along while riding the exercise bike as Mary tackles the balance challenge with the focus of a gymnast. Loris is looking forward to their usual coffee after the class and starts pedaling a little faster. “Come on Anthony - you can do it”, Shelly encourages Anthony to reach 10 minutes walking on the treadmill. That will be his personal best and when he reaches the 10 minute mark, everyone in the group gives him a cheer as he steps off the treadmill beaming.

It is the welcoming and supportive environment at North East Exercise Solutions that keeps people moving and motivated. Helping people discover greater control over their body and the benefit of regular exercise is what gets Shelly, our Exercise Physiologist jumping out of bed every day.
