Retirement Communities
We provide safe solutions for senior fitness.
Falls pose one of the biggest risks for injury for older adults. Many seniors who fall, even those who are not injured, develop a fear of falling. This fear may cause them to limit their daily activities, resulting in reduced mobility and physical fitness, and thus increasing their risk of falling again.
For the majority of older adults, falls and balance problems are due to weakness in the lower extremities. Nearly 70% of all falls, however, can be prevented with safe and regular exercises. Studies show that retirement communities that offer effective fitness programs can increase revenue and save hundreds of thousands of dollars of fall-related costs each year. Yet most exercise equipment available today is ineffective for senior use.
The Fitness ArchTM provides a complete fitness solution for seniors—enabling total body strength, range-of-motion, balance training and cardiovascular exercises in both seated and standing positions. It can be used by seniors of any physical ability, and it accommodates any type of chair, wheelchair, scooter or fitness ball. This eliminates the need for manual transfers from one machine to another, often a source of fear for seniors and a cause of injury for workers.
It's also a pleasure to use. Designed by experts in senior fitness, every detail of the Fitness Arch was created with the user experience in mind. The attractive, stable construction and ergonomic design provides a reassuring environment. Seniors feel safe and confident while exercising and are thus more likely to participate in regular exercise. The Fitness Arch also allows for therapies that range from light exercises for frail seniors to advanced workouts for more active seniors. It's an important component of your community's fitness program.
Your business is important to us, and we provide you with resources that help you improve patient outcomes. We empower our clients with in-depth educational and training materials, as well as tools that help you promote your community's programs using the Fitness Arch.
