Covid 19 has taken so many things away from you. Don’t let it take away more of your health! Sedentary living will cause you to become weaker, stiffer, and place you more at risk for falls. If you are needing help with decreasing an annoying ache/pain or staying active via a virtual platform then reach out to us as we have found what works. We are doing in person visits with more distance between clients and we have moved equipment to allow ample room between clients. We are being as safe as we can be given the CDC recommendations.
