Welcome to

The Health Improvement Coach

Qualified Lifestyle Menopause Practitioner and Wellness Coach

Meet Maxine

Qualified Lifestyle Menopause Practitioner and Wellness Coach

Not your average Wellness Coach…

 

Maybe you’re a woman of a certain time of life and all things that have worked around diet and exercise before have stopped working for you.

 

Maybe you’re not quite as confident in your body as you used to be, and you need a little help and support.

 

Maybe you have new health condition or been living with one for many years, and not sure where to start when it comes to getting healthier.

 

My aim is to give you the confidence and knowledge to improve your health. I use a mixture of lifestyle changes, physical activity and behaviour change techniques to help you get to where you want to be. You and I, together will  have an understanding of your own limitations,

likes and dislikes to ensure, you achieve your goals long term.

 

I have 25 years experience. As a mid-life woman myself, I can really understand how your body may feel like it no longer belongs to you and work with woman on both 121 and group basis.

 

I have also worked with hundreds of people living with other conditions including Angina, Heart Attack, Stroke, Joint Replacement, Arthritis, Cancer and Diabetes.

 

My qualifications include: 

  • Menopause Lifestyle Practitioner

  • Level 3 Weight Management

  • Life Coach Diploma

  • Level 3 Pilates Instructor 

  • Level 4 Chronic Lower Back Pain

  • Level 4 Cancer rehabilitation

  • Level 4 Cardiac Rehabilitation

  • Level 4 Pulmonary Rehabilitation 

  • Level 3 GP Referral (includes, respiratory, joints, Diabetes, High blood pressure, stroke)

  • Level 3 Personal Trainer

  • Cognitive Behavioural Therapy Diploma 

​

I can help with motivation, accountability, behaviour change and mindset, but above all dispel all the myths and confusion around the 54 symptoms of menopause, weight management, nutrition, sleep, stress management and exercise as I offer only evidence based advice.

 

We take away any shame, blame or negativity and focus on behaviour change and mindset. 

 

We work on how to break old habits and form new ones to set you up for success. 

 

I'd love to help you achieve your goals. With the appropriate support, it just might be easier than you think!

​

Much Love Max

Toria Sheldon

Everyone needs a Maxine in their life!

​

I started seeing Maxine as I had an injury and was really struggling to over come it and the fact I couldn't physically do any of the sports I was doing before. She helped nurse my body and mind back to a positive place and I found a new passion for pilates after joining her classes along side our 121 sessions.

​

I am still learning how my body works and how to make it function more effectively. Every session I learn something new, I now appreciate those little wins instead of being ungrateful!. I'm getting older and accepting it can be tough at times but if you have an understanding and some support it's not so scary.

​

Thanks lovely, you are wonderful!
