“When I got diagnosed with osteoporosis, I started asking around for recommendations for someone who could help me do a weight training program. My Doctor also thought it was a good idea.
I’m so happy a friend gave me Becky’s information.
She has developed a bone density program that has increased my strength, balance, and agility at a pace that I can handle.
She also incorporates breathing and relaxation exercises. Commitment to the 30-40 minute routine, 2-3 times a week, helps renew your confidence and ability to do more activities. I would highly recommend Becky. She is fun to work with!”
– Lassie Barile
