About Us
Debbie Sturge Dip.ION Nutritional Therapist
I qualified with distinction as a Nutritional Therapist in 1999, having trained for 3 years at the Institute for Optimum Nutrition, (I.O.N.), in London. I have since worked from the clinic at I.O.N. and tutored there for 3 years, as well as working at various clinics in Kent. Alongside BodyWise Slim & Flex, I am still available for private 'one to one' consultations for Nutritional Therapy, based at Herbs, Gardens & Health, 27 Northdown Road, St Peter's, Broadstairs, CT10 2UW - Telephone number (01843) 600201. If you would like to know more about Nutritional Therapy and how it may help you, please do give me a call!

Rebecca Nicks - Personal Trainer
I initially qualified in 2004 as a Level 2 Gym Instructor. Since that time, I have continued to work towards achieving and maintaining a Level 3 status as Personal Trainer, which includes qualifications, ranging from Nutrition and Weight Management, Lifestyle and Fitness Assessment and TIDE (Training in Different Environments).
I am a qualified Lecturer (Level 4 Cert F.Ed) and have taught YMCA and OCR Level 2 students and have recently qualified as Health Trainer for the NHS (City & Guilds Level 3).
I am particularly interested in Adaptive Exercise and have IFI qualification based experience – although, like many Personal Trainers, I am multi disciplined (which means I have attained other complimentary qualifications ranging from Circuits, Exercise to Music (aerobics), Chair Based Exercise, Spin, VibroTrainer Level 2 (VibroKinetix vibration training). I am also a Martial Arts Instructor and predominantly teach un-graded adult students but am also the Youth Co-Ordinator for a South East and Kent Coastal Region Martial Arts School and, therefore, hold Children’s Health Related Exercise Certification.
This allows me to offer my clients a wider choice of exercise and fitness options, allowing the client greater opportunity to match their requirements and needs within a sporting environment.
I have had the opportunity to work in several gyms – of all size, and of experiencing both gym based and freelance personal training contracts and studio classes.
I am happy to answer any queries and full list of my qualifications and experience and professional background is available upon request. I can be contacted on 07989 869 553 or rebeccanicks986@btinternet.com.
