Co-manager Elisabeth Leal, with 20 years' of physiotherapy experience and able to work with clients in 6 languages, comments;
"By pinpointing exactly what individual clients require, on a case by case basis - for example with golf injuries - we develop tailored programs that are specific to their problem.  We  offer short and long term solutions, making the gym ideal for everybody."

Elisabeth's partner, Valter Luz, heads up exercise programmes at the gym. He comments:
