After deciding to start a family, I was experiencing difficulty with managing my weight and getting…read moreback into pre-pregnancy shape. I was previously quite athletic and active and quickly became frustrated with my body shape and at times felt quite depressed. I thought for a while about seeking professional personal training, but was very uncertain as to who to contact. I found Trillium Fitness through a work colleague who had great things to say about their service. I was attracted by how Trillium had both health care and fitness qualifications as it gave me the reassurance and confidence that the training I would receive would be accurate and safe. A major benefit to working with Trillium Fitness was the personalised nutrition and education. I thought I was a fairly health conscious eater, but after working with Trillium, I realised I had much to learn. After making small changes to my eating, I rapidly saw and felt positive changes in my body shape and mood and it simply changed my life. I would highly recommend Trillium Fitness to anyone wishing to better their health or fitness. The confidence they instilled in me was invaluable and I feel that I can now maintain my health practices for the long term and pass these on to my family to better their health.

I moved to Edinburgh in September 2014 to begin working in one of the cities hospitals. Once I had…read moregot myself settled I set about joining a gym. I was fairly new too training in gyms and in the past most of my exercise would have come from training for the various sports that I played in school, university and recreationally. So I thought it would be wise to take up with a personal trainer for a bit of guidance, education and motivation. I searched the internet and although there were endless amounts of PT's offering their services in the Edinburgh area, Trilliums Fitness' ad was the only one that really appealed to me. Their focus on a person centred approach and consideration of all aspects of their clients lifestyles being the main reasons for this. I contacted Jonathan both via email and text message saying that I was interested in Trilliums ad and in no time at all he had replied with a very welcoming message asking if i would like to meet up and talk further about what himself and Trillium fitness where about. We met and he talked me through what the process would involve and the commitment I would have to make to achieve my goals. He told me to take some time to think it over but by the time we had finished spoken I knew this is who i wanted to learn from. Trillium really do leave no stone unturned. They not only look at the obvious areas such as diet and exercise, they also target other important aspects of their clients lives such as sleep, occupation, work shifts and other sports you take part in. With the information and feedback they are provided from clients, they tailor-make diet plans and work-outs, going into such incredible detail and effort that all those who train with them need to do is turn up, be willing to learn and be committed. I think it is important to highlight that Trillium do not force this lifestyle on anyone and do their utmost to work around their clients and their lives. I have been training with Trillium Fitness since October 2014 and have already gone above and far beyond my initial goals in half the time that I had expected. Its not only the physical goals that I value but with every session I learn something new about training, my diet or lifestyle and feel that little bit more confident about training independently (which was a clear aim set out by Trillium on day 1). I have done and will continue to highly recommend the Trillium Fitness team.

I am a seasoned client of several massage and physiotherapy places. I have had quite a range of…read moreOsteopaths and Massage Therapists. Every place has its own group of therapists, some specialise in one area of physical and personal well-being. Active Health has been on my radar for a long time now. I made the step today to pay them a visit. Mainly for one reason: Briana Eades. Back in 2010 she was one of the leading masseuses that was treating my Sciatica and lower back problems. Her approach was novel, personal and very effective. She introduced me to new ways of experiencing Massage Therapy. The Deep Tissue Massage sessions are done with clear expertise and skill. Clearly she does give it her all, but stays bright and joyful throughout! I suspect that Briana has possibly 'used' me to expand her knowledge during my treatment as on her suggestions I was introduced to the G5 Machine (deep tissue) and Manual Lymphatic Draining (a type of massage that helps the lymph nodes drain and is incredible relaxing!) and this only makes her a very versatile member of the Active Health Team. From their website: "Briana is qualified in a number of massage therapy techniques including Remedial, Sports, Deep Tissue, Swedish/Relaxation, Manual Lymphatic Drainage and Aromatherapy including Raindrop Technique." She takes detailed notes during the sessions and will adjust the therapy to suit the current need and wants of the client. On arrival I was asked to fill out the personal contact details and the physical issues you need assistance with. Some medical details and insurance details are also asked for. The massage room I had was of an adequate size, heated and no distractions. (well there is some classical music in the background). The table was comfortable and had an warming pad to avoid getting cold. Nice touch. After the initial consultation - as we shared a history it wasn't that long of a chat- we got straight into it. Working on some problem points on my legs and lower back, some tension release around the neck & shoulders and to finish with the Lymphatic Drainage. I felt reborn! I will definitely make another appointment, and as I understand they have evening times available too. This session was an hour and cost £42 - well worth every penny!
