Why choose us and how are we different?

The biggest difference between our wellness center and another type of fitness facility is that we focus on overall wellness instead of just fitness. It’s possible to be physically fit, or working toward physical fitness, and still experience ill health. The purpose of a medical fitness center isn’t just to help clients lose weight or gain muscle, but to help them manage their health. Medical Fitness and Wellness Group uses evidence-based practices to reduce unwanted variations. This means that all our corrective exercise programs and rehab programs follow techniques that are scientifically proven through extensive research studies, and backed by organizations including The National Academy of Sports medicine (NASM), American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM), International Board of Nutrition and Fitness, and RedCord to name a few.

We collaborate with Medical Doctors, Chiropractors, Physical Therapists, Nutritionists, and Licensed Medical Massage Therapists to offer you a comprehensive solution for your unique situation. Gyms and fitness centers that aren’t medically guided may not follow correct procedures, and therefore may not be safe or effective. Many of the programs in these types of gyms tend to be based on what the public perceives as “the new thing”, a fad, or what feels right to them. At our medical fitness facility, the staff is qualified and certified to teach sound techniques for improving one’s life quality, and does not allow unsupported trends and fads to affect what they do. We will never sell you a product or service that has not been backed by medical science.

What also separates us is our approach to wellness. We use a proactive approach to total wellness emphasizing preventative care to not let it happen in the first place. We believe in and practice preventative medicine. We provide traditional AND alternative therapy solutions to give you a more comprehensive and effective solution. We look at the body as a complete kinetic chain and find the “Root” cause of your pain, not the symptom where the pain ended up. Once you find the TRUE source you will live a pain-free life and be able to do the things you have always wanted to do at any age! We are the next logical step upon completion of any physical therapy program before going back to a regular mainstream fitness center or local gym.

Who can benefit from a Medical Exercise Center?

While anyone can benefit from an evidence-based approach to fitness, our wellness center is particularly beneficial to those with pre-existing health conditions, like diabetes, chronic pain, and many other chronic conditions. Individuals living with these conditions should absolutely work on becoming more fit, but they also have to act with caution. Fad diets or overly ambitious exercise regimens could prove very dangerous for someone living with one of these conditions.

Medical fitness centers are also ideal for clients who have never before seriously participated in a fitness regimen. Inexperienced clients are in danger of trying to do too much too fast or falling victim to unsafe fads and trends.

More than just exercise

A vital component of medical fitness centers is their focus on lifestyle factors as well as exercise. At our center, a client will receive input on lifestyle changes beyond just exercising. Dietary changes, stress relief methods, and preventative spinal care are all important focus points we cover at our wellness center.

Our wellness center is fully integrated and all of our trainers an therapists collaborate with each other and are in the same location. This means that everyone responsible for your health and well-being will be on the same page. No more having to go to two, three, or four different health and wellness providers that may have different ideas and opinions as to what is best for you, and may not be in communication with your other doctors and wellness providers. When your wellness team is all in ONE location it saves time, and we are able to collaborate which each other about your individual care and come up with a customized wellness plan for you. We are fully integrated with one goal in mind, YOU!
