these guys have got it figured out!.
I have never posted one of these reviews before but feel I need to spread the word about HER Club to anyone who has dealt with persistent joint and muscle pain. I read about the power plate machine
they offered as a training aide and went in just to try out the three day gym trial since the club is close to where I work. The proprietor Jonathan took me through several standard training exercises with the addition of doing them on the power plate. He explained that the technology of the machine was originally designed to combat muscle loss in astronauts in zero gravity. Apparently the action of the oscillating plates you work out on forces short muscle action as you simultaneously activate large muscle groups, which results in a more effective workout. He then went on to say that this machine combats spinal compression and helps people with back and joint pain.
I have been dealing with chronic joint pain and muscle tightness since a sports injury a few years ago that has literally left me lying on my back for days at times and affected my posture severely for a period of a couple months more than once. I have tried Swedish and thai massage, traditional chiropractic, bikram yoga, and medication to alleviate my pain. Some hurt me more, some made me feel somewhat better right afterward, but the pain would never have been fully alleviated and always come right back.
After one session I went home feeling like I usually do after a good workout, pretty good and stronger than I was before I went to the gym. The next day was what made me a complete convert. My lower back and hips felt fine, my calves did not feel tight, and the most amazing thing is my neck was not cracking like it had been. I went in to get treated by other methods for my original problems and ended up with this neck cracking that seriously freaked me out. I am 27 and felt like I was broken/ damaged for life.
I am one of the most cynical people you will ever meet and I have to say this treatment is the best thing since sliced bread, as far as I’m concerned. It has been weeks since I did a full workout ONE TIME and I am still feeling significantly better, and my neck is still almost completely free from freaky popping and when it does crack it’s nothing in comparison to what it was. I have been telling everyone in my office, my parents, my friends, etc because it truly is an amazing technology.
They also do non-surgical facelifts and weight loss programs using technology I have never been told about before. I tried the intro weight loss session and definitely felt as though I had done an intense resistance workout for a few days afterward.
My only complaint is that there is only one location. Do your body a favor, you will thank me!…

Positive Environment - doesn't feel like a gym - makes me want to work out!!.
I cannot thank the group at Butterfly Life enough for helping get me to a point where I want to work out! I used to be easily intimidated by the weight machines at gyms and would avoid the whole
section completely. Lynda calibrated each machine to my body size and explained to me the proper way to work each machine - wow! Now that I know how to use the outer thigh press - I'm a whole lot more apt to sit down and use the machine.
I truly enjoy walking into the location every day - being welcomed by Jonathan, Sherry and Lynda makes for such a positive environment to exercise at. The DVD classes are challenging and the video instructors explain the movements thoroughly making it every easy to follow along. I also like that pending other member participation, they will play any video you wish.
The best part...I'm seeing results! Not only are my pants looser (yay!) but I'm starting to see definition in my arms and legs! I'm feeling muscles that I didn't know I had or rather hadn't used in a LONG while.
I strongly encourage women, especially those who aren't gym-fiends to check out Butterfly Life. The positive environment that they have helped create makes such a huge improvement in my desire and commitment to exercise. I wish them nothing but success in the future.…
Serious About Losing Weight? ~this is the place for you!.
Since I have joined the club, I have been even more motivated to loose the weight. I feel great from working out everyday. I have gained so much energy from my workouts. The owners are wonderful
people who sincerely help you with great tips. I have been with Ballys, Gorilla Fitness, 24 hour fitness, and even Curves before joinning Butterfly. I am a very picky exerciser. Butterfly is the first place that I truly feel comfortable and at home in. It's in the most convienant location for me. The inside is friendly and super clean. BUT THE BEST PART IS THAT I HAVE ALREADY LOST 5LBS!!!! and inches!
If you are paying $20 for a membership at 24 HR Fitness and think you have a deal, ask yourself what you are truely getting for that $20(?) Are you even going? Get motivated at Butterfly! I work out everyday so it is working for me. I want to say thanks to the owners: Linda, Jonathen, and Dr. Fong for being there for me.…
Love getting caught in the Butterfly net!. From the moment I signed up for membership, I knew this was the place for me. Having met Lynda and Jonathon, I was truly "caught in the net" with not only their enthusiasm but with their sincerity in helping people. As soon as you walk in the center you receive a warm welcome and the tensions of the day just slip away. The members are friendly, helpful,supportive and just plain great! I like the many choices of working out that Butterfly provides so that one can mix it up and not become bored with the same routine. I would never have thought that this "working-out" business would actually be fun but it is and I am truly enjoying my participation. Come and join the fun!…
