Mrs Sajadinia also wants to provide physiotherapy for NHS patients in order to help service its ever-growing waiting lists.

She now employs nine freelance fitness instructors and three therapists and has big plans for Seena Health, including the opening of a injury rehabilitation centre, and is hoping to roll out a chain of gyms across the UK.

She has also published a fitness DVD called Your Back With Fatemeh, has featured as a guest host on a health and fitness phone in show on Spice FM and has plans for a TV show in which she will help people with musculoskeletal related problems.

"It has been quite a journey, starting my own business," she said.

"I’ve met a lot of other female entrepreneurs and there are some amazing women out there doing great things. I would definitely encourage women to go into business."
