Beyond the obvious risks, the associated health problems of being overweight and obese have a significant economic impact on the U.S. health care system.

According to a recent study, medical expenses related to obesity account for nearly 10% of total U.S. medical expenses and has reached nearly $79 billion annually.

There is an answer. Exercise.

At Fitness Plus, we respect the professional knowledge of our trainers as well as many other health professionals in our area.

We encourage our trainers to continue their education in the scope of their fitness/wellness profession, but we never ask any of our trainers to step outside their professional scope.

Part of our role to managing your overall health is to pay attention to any special needs that may arise that might require the attention of a specialized health professional.

To help us take the best care of our clients as possible, Fitness Plus has set up a network with other health professionals. We feel confident in referring our clients to them, if the need arises. Professionals that we can refer our clients to include, but are not limited to, physical therapists, occupational therapists, internal medicine doctors, healthy aging doctors, weight management specialists, and nutritionists.

This professional network helps our clients feel "taken care of" on every level, which further helps us achieve our goal of helping you achieve lifelong fitness/wellness.
