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.
The Vital Role of Medically Integrated Fitness in Your Facility
Safe and effective medically integrated fitness can differentiate your center. Our approach ensures fitness professionals and healthcare providers collaborate to create targeted medical fitness programs serving individuals with chronic conditions such as arthritis, diabetes, or obesity.
By prioritizing safety and individualized care, your facility can offer a more comprehensive and reputable fitness experience. Our safe and inclusive medical fitness programs attract a diverse clientele, positively impacting community health and wellness.
Transforming into a medical gym can make your facility a valuable wellness resource, elevated beyond and differentiated from commercial gyms.
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.

Become a Medical Gym by Getting Certified
Our six steps to medically integrated fitness implementation are proven to engage providers and their patients and move your facility from Generation 1 (Hospital Branded Fitness Center) to Generation 2 (Medically Integrated Fitness Center). The process begins with the creation of a Medical Advisory Committee, or MAC, and concludes with Medical Fitness Association (MFA) certification. We currently have 15 MACs at our managed centers, with more than 130 providers overseeing 15 MFA-certified facilities.
We have the expertise to guide you to successful Medical Fitness Association certification and transform your center into a medical gym. Partnering with us provides numerous benefits, including access to our 25+ years of industry knowledge, personalized solutions, and a vast network of professionals.
