Beginning or maintaining a wellness journey isn’t always easy in today’s modern world, especially with the abundance of junk food and an overall sedentary lifestyle. Simply put, it may take more than just a gym membership or the desire to eat healthy to actually create change in your life. Alongside our knowledgeable staff, the Hancock Wellness Centers are trying to make health possible for all the residents of Hancock County and the surrounding area with unique wellness initiatives.
Our Wellness Centers LOVE to stand apart from the rest
The term “wellness center” was chosen on purpose and, indeed, we are much more than a gym. Of course, we offer the traditional benefits of any other gym, including state-of-the-art equipment, an indoor pool, a plethora of group exercise classes and more. But, along with those offerings, we also give our members the chance to participate in wellness initiatives that can really spark lasting change for those wishing to lead a healthier lifestyle
Curious about health and fitness? We’ve got you covered
We consider our wellness initiatives to be an offering unique to our wellness centers. Because we are an extension of Hancock Health, we are partnered with providers, experts, dietitians and more to help our members gain all the resources they need to succeed. Here are just a few of the programs you can expect to have access to through the Hancock Wellness Centers:
- Ready, Set, Stroll, a fitness walking program for new and expectant mothers
- Smart Recovery support groups
- Clinical programming such as Rock Steady Boxing for those living with Parkinson’s, special fitness classes for those with arthritis and more
- Health education classes such as diabetes management
