I had come to accept that I would have lower back pain of some kind for the rest of my life. Having fallen down a set of stairs over ten years ago and suffered a torn disc, countless attempts had failed in finding long term relief.

Due to pain I'd stopped exercising and felt depressed not being able to be as active as I would like with my 4 year old son, so I took my early weight loss into my own hands. I got to a point that I couldn't lose any more weight and I was still in pain and that's when a friend recommended I try Vision Personal Training. We put a plan in place with my doctor for me to be pain free in 12 months and Vision played a huge part in this.

The team at Vision were so supportive of my rehabilitation plan, not once was I made to feel like my situation was difficult or an inconvenience. I was so anxious that I would do something that would re injure my back but my Personal Trainer would watch my every move and never allowed me to stray from perfect form in everything I did.

Gradually we built up strength and confidence and I've been 4 months now pain free after ten years and I've recently returned to boxing as well.

To say my experience has been life changing is nothing short of the truth. It's not only about the weight loss and good nutrition but support and trust in someone that you can achieve anything you put your mind too.
