Stay Healthy and Engaged With Our Therapy Services

As we age, it’s critical to maintain balance, strength, and flexibility to support daily function and prevent injury. Included with your monthly rent is access to an evidence-based exercise program from FOX Rehabilitation that helps maintain your health and independence with 60-90 minute sessions that occur twice a week.
