Seniors - Disability Rehabilitation Gym

Not like other gyms. People come here for their own personal rehab or fitness goals, not to show off how much they can bench.
The staff are very supportive and they regularly update your personal program that is tailored just for you and your needs.

Wonderful staff, always willing to help and advise. From the first time I trained at Inner Soul I have felt very comfortable, great community atmosphere. Thank you Donna!!

Supportive, friendly staff. We were first timers at the gym, and were made to feel comfortable and relaxed. Treated with dignity and respect!

Donna and her staff are professional and helpful, the atmosphere is friendly with a personal program designed for you by Donna to suit your needs.

Diagnosed back in 2016 with Ataxia Myelitis

Which I was unable to walk and effected my hand eye coordination.

Being an avid golfer, this was a huge impact on my life and not being able to work.

After 7 weeks in hospital, I was walking around on a walking frame due to still shuffling when walking.

I started with Donna at Country Health Connect then transferred to Inner Soul, with Donna’s assistance and programs over the past 6 years, I have now progressed back to playing golf winning 2 interclub pennants, while taking up darts and table tennis along with starting my own car detailing business.

In 2018 I experienced a life changing event that started with an innocuous knock to my thigh. 

I lost my right leg (up to and including part of my hip), and the induced coma I was put in to save my life caused other catastrophic injuries from lack of blood supply to the extremities of my poor, broken body.

I was in hospital (with a cast on my left lower leg) for over a year. My remaining left leg was unable to be used to walk comfortably due to the injuries sustained.

The feelings of loss, helplessness, frustration and anger washed over me like crashing waves. I tried so hard to be positive, but it's a really hard thing to force.

My life had changed forever, and I didn't know what the future would look like!

Inner Soul became like a warm, safe embrace at a time when I was desperate! I was physically weak, mentally spent and emotionally drained.

Donna and the team worked with me to build trust and form a relationship where I could see a positive future - as broken and bereft as I was, there was a glimmer of a spark at the end. I just had to get started.

Setting goals and achieving them, being involved in the fun activities, being competitive, making new friends, crying when needed, talking to get things off my chest.....Inner Soul, Donna and the team are always there for me.

Since having further surgery to amputate my remaining leg, and unexpected hip replacement surgery, the professionalism and care from Donna and the team has been exceptional. 

I am well on my way to achieving my goals of walking again and riding my horse! And it's all thanks to Inner Soul and Donna.
