Fitness Therapy
In this day and age, hardly anyone will contest the benefits of regular exercise. Newspapers and magazines are full of articles and programmes encouraging us to move more and sit less. Apart from the physical benefits, exercising positively affects the psyche. It frees our mind and stimulates our brain in all the right places.

Another important factor of fitness routine is that is fills our free time with positive activity. Time that may have been spent of negative or even destructive things and activities can now be used to improve our physical and mental health.
