DO YOU STRUGGLE TO STAY MOTIVATED TO EXERCISE?

We're here to help...

Regular exercise can make a life-changing difference to people withneurological conditions. The Neuro Therapy Centre and Brio Leisure have teamed up to develop an Access to Exercise programme which offers people with neurological conditions.

Movement

• Variety of exercise options – including online options, seated classes, boxercise, aquatherapy and more (online options available too)
• Regular physiotherapy – with trained Neuro Physiotherapists
• Instructors who understand neurological conditions and exercise which can maintain strength.

Mood

• Being part of the group with regular support and opportunities helps motivation
• Telephone advice and support with signposting service
• Keeping active can support mental wellbeing

Me

• One-to-one exercise advice
• Our advice and support is tailored to you as the individual, putting you at the centre of how you manage your condition; whether you are newly diagnosed or you’re on your symptom journey.

Part of the project forms research on improving access to exercise for people with neurological conditions carried out by Sheffield Hallam University.

Individuals may be required to pay for some activities. To access services at the Neuro Therapy Centre you will need to become a member (annual fee £24), services are then free, but as a charity donations are welcome. Activities offered by Brio Leisure vary in price.

Participants on the programme can access the Neuro Therapy Centre and/or the Brio Leisure sites across Cheshire.

If you would like to join this programme please visit www.neurotherapycentre.org/access-to-exercise to download the referral form or speak to your GP.
