Leader in Medically Integrated Fitness Solutions

We are the leading fitness management company. We are distinguished by our successful approach to developing and executing medically integrated fitness programs at hospital-based and community recreation centers across the U.S. Our unique medical fitness strategy targets the 75% of people who are not members of a commercial gym, and the 50% of people living with at least one chronic condition. Our medical fitness programs are referral based, physician-guided, and managed by certified fitness professionals.

Our Approach to Medically Integrated Fitness

Chronic conditions such as heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, and obesity are prevalent across the U.S. Multiple studies have shown that regular exercise can mitigate these conditions. Our proven medically integrated fitness programs bridge the gap between healthcare and fitness.

Our approach to medical fitness implementation encompasses a broad array of strategies specifically designed to transition your facility from a “Generation 1 – Hospital-Branded Health Club” to a “Generation 2 – Medically Integrated Fitness Facility”.

Some of these strategies include, but are not limited to:

  • Shifting focus from a healthy population to an at-risk, deconditioned population.
  • Adherence to Medical Fitness Association (MFA) standards.
  • Shifting from general fitness programming to special population programming.

Our approach will provide you with a structured path to becoming a medical gym and attaining MFA standards, resulting in lasting positive change for your community.
