Overview
One of the most important decisions a person will make regarding his or her overall health is to incorporate physical activity into his or her lifestyle. We understand that encouragement from a physician might be the greatest influence on a patient’s decision to make a lifestyle change.
Exercise is Medicine is an initiative of the American College of Sports Medicine and the American Medical Association. This program is a quick, simple and effective process for a person to get on track with improving his or her quality of health and well-being. This program helps individuals with varying health conditions (i.e., hypertension, sleep disorders, obesity, etc.) learn how to incorporate physical activity into their daily routines. We offer programs for Phase III Cardiac Rehab, Next Step – Musculoskeletal injury, Joint Effort, Diabetes Fitness, Cancer Fit, and Better Bones – Osteoporosis. With the guidance of an exercise specialist, the individual will train and learn how to perform exercises that are more effective in improving his or her health and quality of life.
