Fit2Care™
The Parkinson's Exercise and Wellness Center's mission is to provide the healing hands that every caregiver needs to be "Fit2Care™". Fit2Care™ is a unique fitness and therapy-based program created specifically for caregivers of people living with Parkinson’s Disease and Parkinson's Plus.
Designed to build mentally, emotionally, and physically strong caregivers who can confidently perform the demanding tasks of caring for their loved one, Fit2Care™ is open to all family members of someone diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease or Parkinson's Plus. In addition, our PEWC family has created a support group, PD Partners, which meets once a month for coffee and camaraderie.
Our current schedule is:
Tuesday 9:00 a.m., Thursday 9:00 a.m. and Saturday 9:00 a.m.
Benefits of Fit2Care:
Stretching, core, and positional awareness.
Relaxation, repair and recovery for the mind, body, heart and soul.
Cornerman pointers for a safer boxing experience.
Special Educational speakers including neurologists, nutritionists, physical therapists, chiropractors and other local health professionals.
A community of caregivers who can share in the joys and struggles of this extremely important role that they have been given as a person living with Parkinson’s Disease.
