They say it takes a village to raise a child. Well, I may not be the sharpest tool in the shed, but at least I'm in the shed. Having grown up here in Mackay, I owe a lot of thanks to my parents and grandparents for raising me in this great town. Where others choose to spread their wings and fly off to distant lands, I chose to stay here in Mackay and dig my roots even deeper. I want to thank my friends and members at City Fitness for continuing to inspire me. It's that feeling of gratitude that propels me to make sure my team and I are giving you the best fitness experience in Mackay. We may not be perfect, but no family is. All we can do is keep trying to be the best we can be. Thank you Mackay for your 35-plus years of loyal support. You have given us great ideas and suggestions, which is why we expanded our club in Mount Pleasant and opened a new club in City Gates. We now have three City Fitness locations conveniently located near you. Thank you for your continued support. My team and I are always here for you! Forever grateful, Steve

Step Towards Balance prides itself on providing a professional, friendly, and relaxing environment for you to begin your healing process. I have 20+ years of experience in various areas, to help you the best I can. We offer a range of treatments that will help you reach your desired outcome - whether it is relaxation, 'maintenance', or pain management - ranging from ... Tapping & Life Coaching to identify where the mental/emotional blocks are in your life, and helping to 'rewire' the way the brain/body respond to trauma etc. Reflexology is a holistic & remedial therapy performed via the feet - the most neglected part of us. Our feet hold a mirror image of the body, and with 72,000 nerve endings in each foot, it is extremely effective from the inside out. There is also a host of energy work that I can do ... from the Raindrop Technique, or a Bitsa Treatment (using a combination of different energy work, with affirmations, crystals, and sound). I also have a big understanding of metaphysics, and can help you get to the emotional/mental root cause of your physical pain. The best way to find out how I can help you, is to book a treatment and go from there - I would love to meet you!
