Testimonials

"I was diagnosed with MS in 1986 and have undergone various treatments over the years, but more recently has started using the Innerva machines at the Charcot Centre. Exercising on the equipment has helped open up muscles that have been asleep for over 30 years, and i would recommend them to anyone who has mobility problems. I wish I'd found the Innerva equipment and the centre sooner!" - Trevor, The Charcot Therapy Centre

Testimonials

“People get fitter, people are happy. It's a wonderful place, it's wonderful for your health and wellbeing and for socialising, it's brought myself out to meet people and has made me quite fit. As you get older you slow down, you can't do certain things. Since I've been here I revert back to what I used to be...I'm getting older, but in actual fact my fitness is getting better.” - Nancy, Grimsby Leisure Centre, Lincs Inspire
