WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING
“Having recently retired, I found myself in a place of transition. I was encouraged by a friend to seek out the services of Helen, at Empowered By Health. Not knowing what to expect, I was open to any help that may assist me in making the most of the next stage of life. Helen fully embraced where I was at and was very helpful in identifying areas of my life that could be enhanced with some strategic "tweaks". I can't believe how much I learnt over the 6 weeks and how implementing strategies has "reset" my health. I now look forward to the next stage of life with excitement, enthusiasm and energy! Helen's genuine care and desire to see positive results in my life was always evident. Thank you for all your support Helen.”
- Sandy Green, Mona Vale

Life is too short. Make the most of it now with Helen by your side to nurture and lead you into a new vitality.”
