Physical activity is not only for those who are considered 'medically fit', but equally for individuals who regularly see a medical practitioner or who have a long term illness. Physical activity can improve your quality of life and potentially aid recovery.

"Physical activity not only contributes to well-being, but is also essential for good health. People who are physically active reduce their risk of developing major chronic diseases - such as coronary heart disease, stroke and type 2 diabetes - by up to 50%, and risk of premature death by about 20-30%" Chief Medical Officer - Department of Health

If you are living with, or recovering from a medical condition, or suffer with symptoms that prevent you carrying out everyday activities, Full Body Fit can design a programme unique to you. A structured exercise programme can deliver increased energy levels, relief from symptoms and move your life in the right direction.
