Specialty Fitness Programs and Services

People with disabilities or other special needs often do not feel comfortable in fitness centers that cater primarily to able-bodied people.

_______________________________

We are different!

That is why the Siskin Health & Fitness Center was specifically designed to focus on serving people with disabilities, people who wish to maintain or improve function gained from physical therapy, and people who may be concerned about maintaining their independence, health and fitness as they age.
