Movement with ME

Customized Movement Coaching for Chronic, Energy-Limiting Illnesses & Chronic Pain Conditions
Specializing in ME/CFS, Long COVID, Fibromyalgia, Dysautonomia, EDS, MCAS, & Autoimmune Diseases

The Coaching Philosophy:

Exercise is NOT the answer, but Movement IS Medicine.

The benefits of movement are vast and undeniable: easing pain, strengthening muscles, boosting mood, balancing the nervous system, protecting joints, improving blood flow to the brain and body. We can even use movement to tap into the body's natural abilities to heal, adapt, and become more resilient. However, just like with medicine, movement needs to be tailored to work with each individual’s unique health conditions, abilities, limitations, and stressors. Through a holistic and customized coaching approach, my clients will better learn how to listen to their bodies and safely incorporate movement in order to build confidence in their abilities and improve their quality of life.
 

What is 1:1 Movement Coaching? How does it work?

Before starting, we would have you schedule a 30-Minute Initial Consultation ($29 USD) via Zoom and fill out an online questionnaire to ensure that we both have all the information needed to move forward. Monthly coaching fees range from $99 USD to $199 USD depending on which of the 3 coaching levels you choose (details below). 

 

After our initial meeting is complete, I will create a customized program for you on an app called TrueCoach, which can be downloaded to your phone or tablet. You would open it up each day, see the planned activity, and then complete the movement on your own time. If there is a stretch or strength exercise, you would have a demonstration video and specific instructions from me. You would leave feedback about how it felt to help me better program for the future, identify signs of improvement, or recognize early signs of fatigue that tells us an adjustment is needed. 

 

You will receive a specified amount of communication and support each week via the app based on which coaching level you choose, and coaching calls can be scheduled for additional support. There is never any commitment beyond one month at a time, so your subscription can be upgraded, downgraded, or cancelled at any point ahead of the next month’s billing date. Payment are processed through the TrueCoach app using a credit/debit card.

About Your Coach

My name is Julie Hunter, and I have been a part of the health & fitness coaching world for over a decade. After earning a Bachelor's Degree in Exercise Science from Virginia Commonwealth University, I went on to become a certified cycling coach, ACE Certified Personal Trainer, Pain-Free Movement Specialist, Corrective Exercise Specialist, Sports Performance Specialist, and TRX Qualified Coach. While I specialized in Endurance Performance Coaching for many years, it was my own battle with ME/CFS, Fibromyalgia, MCAS, POTS, and multiple TBIs that eventually encouraged me to turn my attention towards helping those affected by invisible, chronic illnesses and chronic pain conditions.

Between my education, coaching career, and personal health journey, I have acquired an overwhelming amount of knowledge and insight that allows me to help individuals with chronic illnesses learn how to safely incorporate movement and improve their quality of life. This isn’t something I would be able to do if I had never felt what it’s like to struggle to do simple things like speak, hold a phone to text, roll over in bed, reach for a glass of water, or walk across the room. As painful as it was, I am grateful to have been able to understand a level of suffering, fear, and hopelessness that most people will never know. It would truly be a privilege to be part of your movement and healing journey.

"The tailored movement program was invaluable to my progress from wheelchair-dependent to taking a little walk 3 times a week. I could hardly believe how much stronger and more confident I felt  in my body within just a few months, and I feel I have a better understanding of how and when to safely increase activity."
