Monique's Enforce Story: Confronted with a herniated disc in my lower back

In mid-2022 in August I was confronted with a hernia in my lower back. This caused a significant loss of strength in my left leg and I also had no feeling in my lower leg and foot. During the first 10 weeks my physiotherapist helped me get over the initial shock and with practice I learned to control the pain. Unfortunately, surgery turned out not to be suitable, so I had to leave the nerve's recovery to nature. I started looking for a decent program “to help nature a little”.

 

After some research I ended up at Enforce Sittard. Here, over a period of 10 weeks, I completed a program that was very carefully set up by Maureen in consultation with my physiotherapist. I now dare to say that I am proud of how things are going now! When I see what I can already do after 12 weeks, I never expected that. In the meantime, I can even participate in the Small Group Trainings. There are only a few exercises that I cannot do the same 100%, but I have no doubt that I will soon be able to do this. I notice that my strength is already starting to recover considerably and I enjoy all the different and very varied exercises where I receive good guidance. This was my first goal. Being able to move freely again without fear and without pain.

 

My next goal is to reduce my weight to an acceptable and healthy level to avoid getting a hernia again. That's what I'm going for now In the next six months!
Thank you Maureen for your support and fun training!
