Frame member · Torn leg muscles, one horse waiting
A fall last year tore the muscles in her leg and she could hardly walk. She found the assessment online and started the classes. She lifts weights now, walks better, and her horse is waiting in the paddock.
I had an accident about twelve months ago where I fell on my side and ripped all my glutes and my quads. I also have a very severe scoliosis with a twist at the bottom, so I was already struggling a bit, but that made it worse. I could hardly walk. I went to the doctors and finally got to a physio who was giving me exercises. He was really good, but I was not doing them at home. I was not getting time and I did not feel confident. I started looking around to see if there were any classes I could go to, and luckily I found this one online. I thought I would go and do the assessment and see what I think. Naser and Karen were really good. They made the assessment very easy to do. I was a bit worried because I knew I was not going to be as strong or steady as I should be, but they talked me all the way through it, so that was great. Then I thought I will start the classes and see how I go. Since I started the program I have become more aware of what my body is doing. I already had issues, but I am more aware of my balance and my strength. I knew I was not very strong, and after my fall I was a bit worried about my balance. My balance has started to improve because I am aware of what my body is actually doing. I can do weights and things I never thought I could do. It is helping build up the muscles in my legs which were damaged, and I think with my spine it is helping those muscles become stronger too. Every day I feel a bit more confident and I can walk a lot better. I can hop up and down on things. The reason I want to get stronger and steadier, besides the normal things like the shopping and jobs around the house, is that just before the accident I had bought a new horse after my previous horse died. I had only ridden him once and then I could not move, could not walk, could not do anything. So it has been twelve months and my horse has been sitting in the paddock with my donkey, and my goal is to be able to get back on and ride. I could not lift a saddle. I could not get up on the horse. I am getting to the stage now where that soon will become a possibility, which will make me really happy. I would tell my friends the same age as me, or younger or older, to come and do the assessment, because even if you only do that, at least then you have an idea of where your body is and what needs building up. But I am pretty sure that, as I did, once you come and do the assessment and see what is going on around here, you keep going, because it is so much easier to do it with other people and have the physiologist here guiding you, helping you to move up, or if something is too hard, move down. So I would say just do it, because at home it is very hard to do the exercises on your own. You forget to do them, you get too busy. Here it is a commitment, and it is fun, and everybody is really nice.
Frame member · More confident and planning a trip
She fell at home and it took her half an hour to get up. Her doctor sent her to Frame Physiology. She started one on one with Naser, she moves better now, her bone scan came back stronger, and her big trip is booked.
I went to my doctor because I had a fall in my house and it took me half an hour to get up, and it really worried me. I went and saw my doctor and she said I am going to refer you to a physiologist. I came to Naser and at that time I was walking with a bad limp and I had used a walking stick, and I have had both my knees and a hip replaced. I broke my hip in a fall. My biggest fear throughout the whole thing has been falling. I started with Naser one on one in November 2024. I had goals that I needed to do. I needed to improve my mobility and moving around. I now find I am much more confident with what I am doing and how I am going. I have just had a bone density scan and my bone density has improved to the point where my doctor is really pleased with how it has gone. It worked. It has taken a while and I have had to really work at it, but what I am doing does work, and for me that means a lot. Yesterday I went to a committee meeting for a club I am with and I mentioned to my friend that my bone density had come in and my improvement was fantastic. She struggles to walk too and she has a lot of problems with her mobility, and she looked at me and said really, who do you go with. I said Frame Physiology. She looked it up on her phone. I am really hoping she will come and have a look, and she was very keen when I said I had improved so much. I have booked a trip to Antarctica, which has been number one on my bucket list, and I am a little apprehensive but I am really looking forward to it. I am 78 years of age. I will be 79 when I do the Antarctica trip. I have gone for 15 days, which will be great. Next year I hope to do a lot more in Australia. I am booked to go on a six day tour of the Murray River.
Frame member · Two breaks in one year
She broke her kneecap, then broke her foot while it healed. Her left leg was weak and she tripped a lot. Under eight weeks in, her balance is better and she feels steadier on her feet.
I joined here because last year I broke my kneecap, and while I was recovering from that I broke my foot. My whole left leg was quite weak. I stumbled a lot and I would trip a lot. I want to stay strong enough to play with my grandchildren and get up off the floor without looking ridiculous, and I travel a lot as well. I found this to be the best fit for me. Since starting the program here my confidence has increased a lot, because my balance is a lot better. I am a lot more steady and a lot stronger already, and I have not even been here eight weeks. I am really looking forward to my next assessment to see how well I am doing. I have already been recommending it to people my age, especially if they have had some physical problems. It is just the best. It is all tailored to your individual needs. We work as a group, but individually on our own strengths. It is much better than a normal gym. You do not just jump in and have to catch up with everybody. It is tailored for you.
They work with each person to ensure that the exercises meet individual needs.
I have been going for about 14 weeks now. They work with each person to ensure that the exercises meet individual needs. My balance has improved, fitness levels increased and overall health is so much better. I look forward to going to my sessions and we always have a good laugh. Thank you Naser and Karen.
Naser and Karen take the time to individually assist and make changes where needed during the session .

I have booked a trip to Antarctica.
I came to Naser after a fall at home that took me half an hour to get up from. I was walking with a bad limp, using a walking stick, and I had already had both knees and a hip replaced. My biggest fear was falling again.
I started one on one with Naser in November 2024. I had goals. I needed to improve my mobility and just move around more freely. I can honestly say it worked. It has taken time and I have had to work at it, but what I am doing does work.
I have just had a bone density scan and my results have improved to the point where my doctor is really pleased. A friend at my committee meeting asked who I go with. I told her Frame Physiology and she looked it up on her phone on the spot.
I have booked a trip to Antarctica. That has been number one on my bucket list. I will be 79 when I go. I am also booked on a six day Murray River tour the following year.
I am 78. I came in with a walking stick. Antarctica is booked.
Every day I feel a bit more confident and I can walk a lot better now.
About twelve months ago I fell and ripped all my glutes and my quads. I also have a very severe scoliosis with a twist at the bottom, so I was already struggling before the fall made everything worse. I could hardly walk.
I had a physio who gave me exercises but I was not doing them at home. I did not feel confident and I never found the time. I started looking for classes and found Frame Physiology online. I thought I would just go and do the assessment and see.
Naser and Karen were really good. They talked me all the way through it. I was worried I would not be strong or steady enough but there was nothing to worry about.
Since starting the classes I can do weights I never thought I could do. My balance is improving. My legs are getting stronger. Every day I feel a bit more confident and I can walk a lot better now.
My goal is to get back on my horse. I bought him just before the accident and had only ridden him once. He has been in the paddock with my donkey for twelve months. I could not lift a saddle. I could not get up on him. That is starting to change.
If you are thinking about it, just do the assessment. Once you see what is going on here, you keep going.
We work as a group but on our own strengths and at our own level.
Last year I broke my kneecap, and while I was recovering from that I broke my foot. My whole left leg was quite weak. I stumbled a lot and I would trip a lot.
I want to stay strong enough to play with my grandchildren and get up off the floor without looking ridiculous. I travel a lot as well. Frame Physiology felt like the right fit.
I have not even been here eight weeks and my confidence has increased a lot. My balance is a lot better. I am a lot more steady and a lot stronger already.

I have already been recommending it to people my age who have had physical problems. It is just the best.
I can now push my daughter in her wheelchair at a two day expo and feel energised the whole time.
When I started coming I was stumbling when I went out walking and I was really sore all over. I knew it was time to do something about it.
Since starting I do not stumble anymore, which is a big thing because I was genuinely worried about breaking a hip. My confidence has gone up, I am so much more active, and I am down two sizes in clothes because my muscles are toning up.
The assessment showed me where I was starting from, and twelve weeks later I got another one. I am 68. My first assessment said I was 72. My second said I was 66.
I can now push my daughter in her wheelchair at a two day expo and feel energised the whole time. I could not do that earlier this year.
Gardening. Going out with my husband. Spending time with my daughter. It is all coming back.
Here there are people at so many different levels and everyone is looked after individually.
I came in thinking muscle loss was my main problem. At the assessment we found that balance was actually the bigger issue. That changed everything.
Since working on balance with Karen, including some exercises to do at home, I find better posture when I walk and I feel steadier on my feet. We have taken it a day at a time and it is coming good.
I have a mother in law in a care home and I can see every day that balance and mobility are the biggest things that take people's independence. I do not want to be in that situation. I have worked hard and I want to keep travelling and enjoying it.
What I really appreciate is that this place is built for people our age. At a regular gym you feel like you might fail. Here there are people at so many different levels and everyone is looked after individually. It is a completely different experience.
If you have any issues with walking, balance, strength or rehabilitation, come on board.
I am more confident stepping into the shower, stepping down, stepping up.
I had a fall a couple of years ago and broke my wrist. After that, balance became a big thing for me. I was even worried about stepping into the shower at home. I had to stop and think about it and hold on to something.
I needed to feel confident again. We go on holidays and I wanted to feel comfortable on steps and in unfamiliar places.
Since starting the program I have definitely got strength back in my legs. I am more confident stepping into the shower, stepping down, stepping up. I can see a clear difference.
Not having to worry is the best part.
Since joining I feel like I walk more confidently.
I joined because I was worried about my balance. I like to walk but I kept catching my toe and tripping a little, and I wanted to feel more confident.
I have two primary school age children and older grandchildren. We go bowling, we do things together. I want to be confident that I am not worrying about falling when I am out on my own.
Since joining I feel like I walk more confidently. I have not tripped or caught my toe. I have also noticed my rounded shoulder is improving because the exercises are helping me walk straighter, which helps with the balance as well.
After my first assessment and then my second one, my fitness level had dropped by quite a few years. I did not realise how much I could improve. That result gave me a lot more confidence.
Just do the assessment. It is worth it.
