"Several months ago when I joined your gym I used a walker and carried oxygen to get about. Your staff started me in a water exercise program. I work out in an indoor pool three days a week. The supervisor, a tough but charming drill sergeant type, helped my strength and stamina to a level that I could give up the walker and oxygen for a cane. And I now drive myself to all my appointments."-Larry Gollin
"I had a great experience, and I want to thank you, especially my instructors Daniela, Eli, and Olga that are not only excellent professionals, but have a clinical insight, contemplating special needs."-Oscar Correale "The Back Gym has helped me attain better balance and support by providing me with water therapy to strengthen my legs and lower back. The therapy combined with home exercises have targeted key areas of my body requiring this assistance. The instructors, in particular Olga, have developed a program which benefit me for my particular problems. My balance is considerably more stable and my walking is improving."-Marge Seymour "I have fibromyalgia and some arthritis in my back. Since I began The Back Gym pool programs, I have suffered little or no pain. I attend classes in the pool about six days a week to exercise and an Ai Chi class. Both types of classes have given me more mobility and flexibility. I did not join for weight loss, but it has definitely been an added bonus. I have lost 12 lbs and about a total of 9 inches all over. All the trainers who work with us are incredibly patient as everyone has different physical problems, which are always attended to individually. There are not enough praises and words to express how thankful I am to Dr. Stauber and his gym. I am especially thankful for the trainers: Olga, Marcela, Eli, Deanne, and Toni and everyone who works with me, especially Daniela, whose support is immeasurable."-Carolyn Gill "I was a 22 year old college student when I had my first back surgery due to degenerative discs. In 1996 I turned 42 years old when I realized I had a severe problem and required surgery on my neck. In August of 2004 I started to see Dr. Stauber and had surgery on my neck. In October 2004 I had my second back surgery. Being an athlete all my life and loving to play sports I was very frustrated to say the least. The only exercise I could do was walk. I was constantly worried about doing anything that might aggravate my condition. I was seeing Dr. Stauber two months after my surgery and was introduced to Daniela, the facility manager of The Back Gym, and joined immediately. I had no idea it would become one of the best decisions I ever made. The people are so nice and the instructors are great Olga, Maricele, Eli, Kristen. It doesn’t matter if you are the only one in the class or the class is full, they give you the same workout. I come 3 times a week. I ride the bike and the class I enjoy the most is Ai Chi with Maricele. I am excited about trying Zumba classes and learning how to dance. I am not only feeling better because of the program I am following, I am more positive about life as well. I am extremely grateful and appreciative for Dr. Stauber, Daniela, and all the instructors for making me feel so welcome and giving me a place to workout."-Norman Moss "I have been a member of The Back Gym since August of 2005. In 2004 I was diagnosed with cancer and received chemotherapy. Shortly after the chemotherapy I developed a pneumonia which damaged my vertebrae and some lower back muscle. I spent six weeks in the hospital and had rods inserted to stabilize my spine. I assumed that exercise and a return to normal everyday activities were no longer an option. After surgery and a return to work I lived a fairly sedentary life. When I joined the Back Gym I felt that I would benefit in some ways from the program. What I have received has been far greater than any expectation. My experience has been incredible. In nine months time, utilizing low-impact aerobics, I have gained and toned muscle, as well as increased my cardiovascular capacity. With and emphasis on core stability, it has also given me more self-assurance with regards to balance. The individual attention and expertise shown by the gym staff has been the key to my positive experience. They tailor the program to my specific needs and constantly encourage me to excel. The facility is meticulously maintained and the staff continues to strive to find new equipment that meets my needs. The Back Gym has given me a new lease on life and the energy to enjoy it." -T.J. Bueno Teacher, Hollywood FL "The Back Gym is like a one-stop shop; I got therapy for my lower back and a great workout all at the same time. I theink the key to the sucess I had at the back gym was the combination of small classes and the extremely qualified trainers on staff. They were always encouraging and pushed me a little harder when necessary. The friendly and supportive nature of the entire staff made the workouts all the more pleasant...it kept me coming back for more!! I was amazed at how much my workouts at The Back Gym helped me! It's well worth it. -Vanessa B. |
