Client Testimonials
KInd words from just some of our happy clients who have benefited greatly from practicing the GYROTONIC® method.
I have been doing Gyrotonic sessions with Aspiral for a number of years. I have MS and this helps with my balance, strength and keeping me mobile. I love my weekly sessions, they are wonderful! I feel better each week physically and mentally. It definitely helps with my mental well-being!

I first heard about Gyrotonic when Lorna was working in a studio in Glasgow so I attended there. On a practical level having sessions in her studio in Killearn is ideal as it saves time commuting. I am a keen cyclist and golfer and have had various minor injuries over the years. Gyrotonic has been great for me to get back my fitness. It gives me a really good workout and improves my flexibility, strength and stamina. The exercises are fantastic and varied and I always feel better after each session.
Campbell Docherty
I attended Gyrotonic following an injury which developed into chronic pain. Attending weekly, Lorna customised each session for my needs but also gave me a variety of movements to keep it interesting. My range of movement increased as did my confidence in managing the pain which allowed me to come off my pain medication within a few months. As a psychotherapist, the technique is also of great interest to me. It has been shown to have healing properties stimulating the vagus nerve and positively impacting on our nervous system which can be affected following traumatic circumstances.

What our clients say
Lorna takes good care to make sure the exercises she gives you compliments your abilities and will tailor your sessions accordingly. A good thing to do to help with back/ joint pain as it is low impact, however the exercises can be ramped up to be more energetic / strenuous as you like.
The equipment in itself is so versatile that it can work any muscle group, joints or general flexibility!
Andy Johnstone
I started seeing Lorna to improve my strength and flexibility. I absolutely love gyrotonics! I don’t have any health issues or mobility problems so I use gyrotonics as a way to challenge myself physically to ensure I maintain strength but not by building bulky muscles. I am delighted to see the progress with my flexibility too. We often focus on core strength which I feel is the foundation to any other exercise. Gyrotonics can be used as my soul form of exercise or complimentary to other physical exercise I am doing. Lorna will challenge you of you ask her to, but equally goes at a pace where you feel comfortable. If you are unsure about Gyrotonics just give it a try! You won’t be disappointed.

I do a lot of exercise so visit Lorna intermittently to have a really good stretch out. She is brilliant at demonstrating the moves and doing the breathing with you so its easy to pick it up quickly for maximum benefit even if you don’t go each week. The resistance moves has the same effect as a really good massage. Its also fantastic for completely switching off thoughts as its all about focussing on your body and movement. I leave feeling about 4 inches taller and totally relaxed.

I agree that exercise changes more than your body. After each session with you I have come away feeling so happy and invigorated and looking forward to my next session. I used to golf and bowl but had to give up those sports when I was diagnosed with Lupus. I was encouraged to exercise but have never been a fan of gyms so was delighted when I found you and your gyrotonic studio. I am amazed that despite being in my seventies I am able to exercise so many parts of my body in a gentle and enjoyable way. My neck moves much more freely now and my walking is greatly improved. I know that many athletes incorporate gyrotonic in their exercise programmes, but I would also encourage anyone, no matter their age to give it a go.

I got up this morning and managed to twinge my back while getting ready for work. I contacted Lorna having heard a bit about Gyrotonics before and knowing it could help with back pain. Lorna managed to fit me in on the same day which was great. The range of motion and stretches I was able to do were far more than I expected and Lorna was asking with each move how it felt or if there was any pain etc. I have arranged to continue treatment and I'm sure I'll continue with it for core strengthening and range of motion even after my treatment. I would definitely recommend Gyrotonic Training with Lorna.
Ritchie McHugh
Oh wow, just wow!! 2 weeks ago, I was literally crying in pain and only able to crawl from sciatica that I learned yesterday from osteopath is due to a bulging disc. Lorna offers a great therapeutic/exercise/Pilates type service, so many great aspects to this! I’ll be a long-term client for sure!! Oh, and she’s a lovely person too so you can add in feeling like you’ve had a counseling session too. Just give it a go, you will not regret it!
Nicola Wood
Definitely recommend Lorna. I’m really into my different sports (particularly running) but not as flexible as I should be. The sessions are really helping with my flexibility and running performance.
Nicola Dawson, Epic Trails
Before I started my Gyrotonic sessions with Lorna I was struggling with osteoarthritis in most of my body and as a 70-year-old I envisaged that I would just have to “grin and bear it”. Not anymore! I have been going to Lorna for a few months now and the difference is amazing. My joints are musch more flexible and I feel so much better in myself. It is not just a series of physical exercises that Lorna concentrates on but also mental well being and the ability to relax whilst taking part in the different routines. All in all, I would thoroughly recommend Gyrotonic with Lorna for all ages and physical abilities. Get our there and try it!
Lorna Ash
I have just finished a 5-week programme with Lorna. I was living with a painful shoulder which appeared one day and forgot to go away. After trying massage and various stretching routines I saw Lorna's Facebook advert for Aspiral Gyrotonic and thought I would give it a go. I have been very impressed with Lorna’s dedication and desire to help me recover from my shoulder pain. I am pleased that my rotator cuff is more flexible now and the discomfort I had has gradually disappeared. I would recommend visiting Lorna, Aspiral Gyrotonic for any physical niggles or just to improve flexibility. Thanks Lorna.
