Kind Words from our Clients

Julia Nelson

I've been working with Lori and her excellent staff since 2011, and my experience has always been positive! Most recently, her personal trainers she's assigned have been a very good "fit" with my clients. The clients have special needs, my older female client has Alzheimer's, and my younger male client had physical disabilities. In addition to the many benefits to their physical health, the trainers have served as friendly visitors, and occasionally have reported concerns regarding their personal care and emotional health, which has been very helpful. Lori and her staff have always been professional and courteous, and I am always kept informed of progress. And I know they really care about my clients, which makes all the difference!

I am a personal trainer working more and more with folks over 50. I recently reached out to Lori in the hopes of connecting with and learning from professionals with expertise in the space of active aging, and boy is she amazing! I am filled with gratitude for her openness and willingness to share her insights and expertise in this growing industry. Her knowledge of fitness coupled with deep expertise in senior health creates the perfect combination to support her client’s journey to improved health and wellbeing. Not to mention her passion and enthusiasm for supporting health and fitness for seniors is infectious. Thank you, Lori!

Ethel

I am very impressed with Lori Michiel Fitness. It has improved the quality of life for my 87-year-old mother-in-law who suffers from moderate dementia and had become weak and unstable due to spending too much time sleeping and being sedentary. From the very thorough initial evaluation to the now twice weekly workout sessions, my mother-in-law is really having fun with the exercises with her personal trainer; I can see the benefits of these sessions. Additionally, I really appreciate the excellent communication with Lori, who always responds in a timely fashion and sends weekly email updates about progress being made. I highly recommend!!

She is getting stronger! Yay! To be more specific, mom can bend all the way over and pick something up off the floor, lift her legs higher, comb nearly all of her hair independently, and it’s only been a month! And now she can fold her own laundry!

Ellie Trope

When my aunt’s strength began declining, I started looking around for gyms or trainers for those with physical limitations. I found Lori’s website and she had just what I was looking for. She conducted a thorough assessment and set my aunt up with a wonderful trainer. In addition to knowing how to physically help the client, she is really skilled at matching personalities. Now in our second year as clients, we are really satisfied with all aspects of Lori’s approach. I highly recommend Lori’s services.

Jill M. Brink

For the past seven years, my clients have reaped the benefits of working with Lori Michiel and her team. My clients are living with less pain, greater strength, endurance and flexibility; fewer falls as well as less depression and more energy for life. Speaking as a Professional Geriatric Care Manager, physical exercise is an integral component of a Care Plan, especially for my clients with health issues. Moving the body is essential to physical, emotional and cognitive well-being and Lori and her trainers know how to safely and effectively engage my clients in an exercise program that is appropriate for their needs.

Sheri L.

My family engaged the services of Lori Michiel for my 77-year-old mother. I was very pleased with Lori's overall professionalism, starting off with in an in-depth health questionnaire, and then physical assessment. She was very engaging, personable and easy to work with. Her approach with my mother (a difficult person) was always right on target, and she was encouraging, positive and upbeat. She would give us reports after each training session to keep us apprised of what went on. I would definitely recommend Lori Michiel to anyone seeking personal training sessions for those over age 50, as she is quite knowledgeable and experienced with the health issues of this population, and appears to have a natural affinity for these individuals.

Nancy

I just had to tell you, this morning I did three exercises, three repetitions each using FIVE pound weights!!! It was hard, but certainly not impossible. I am so thrilled and excited. I can't remember the last time I was able to lift five pounds - other than dragging in a five-pound bag of groceries from the car! I started in January, barely able to lift two-pound weights and now, eight months later, I can lift five pounds.

I've become more confident in pushing my limits as I learned techniques from Lori that were customized to my age and condition. Before, I would pull back from activities for fear of pain or further injury, but she taught me how to build muscle and stamina progressively and safely. Confidence is built on a series of successes; The Lori Method™ works!
Lori's principles of dynamic stretching revolutionized the way I approach stretching. I've seen a great increase in flexibility and have even built additional strength using her techniques.

Lori and her team were outstanding from A to Z. The personal initial evaluation, the planning, the matching of a trainer to her needs and much more was all completed in a professional and warm manner. My 96-year-old mom benefited greatly for more than a year of training that was delivered with a highly personalized caring touch. She enjoyed the sessions and was always looking forward to them. I give Lori and her team my highest possible recommendation.

Miriam Brauner

I went to Lori Michiel because I needed help, especially in walking. In the past I have been doing exercises at least five times a week.

Now I can walk better. Also before I was going up the stairs one step at the time. Now I can go up and down by holding from both rails without a problem. I can go up 120 steps and more.

I continue doing all the exercises and they have given me more strength in all my body.

There aren't any words to say how much Lori and her trainer, therapist changed my life forever. Until today, I do the exercises they taught me.

I will thank them forever.

They changed my life. They can change your life too.

I learned from Lori how important exercise is to my well-being and that I need to be accountable to myself and make exercise a part of my every day. I actually see Lori's face when I swim, or use the tread mill and know that she will be proud of me and my efforts to live “the good life”.

Lori is a talented, innovative teacher /trainer. She has helped me better how my body works -- and what is needed to keep it moving! She constantly works around limitations with creative ways to accomplish the exercises and movements needed to build more strength and resilience. In addition to helping me with pain issues, she's helped me become more aware of how important posture and balance are. She's led me through provided me with methods to improve both. She also shares resources regarding my particular pain issues as well as general good health and body maintenance.

Mom's doing great and she really likes her trainer. She's so much more comfortable now and not scared to move - she even rode the exercycle a little in the building gym with her senior helper person the other day, so her trainer has really gotten her self-confidence back. She's also moving better. I can see it, though I'm sure she can't as much. And most importantly, her trainer has done a great job putting her mind at ease about the little aches she will feel from working out. She's not worrying every sore muscle is a heart attack anymore.

Fate was truly on my side when I came across Lori. I had difficulty finding someone locally to train with, so I looked online for senior fitness — and found Lori Michiel Fitness! Thank goodness for Zoom, and I could do this virtually. During our first phone conversation, I was “smitten” with Lori's genuine, caring, and knowledgeable approach. Of course I hoped she could be my trainer, but that was not possible. However, the trainer I was set up with, has also been an incredible gift. My life has literally changed for the better. Both the trainer and Lori have been there for me, so supportive in many ways. Lori checks in with me regularly - which has been wonderful.

Warm hugs,
