Winnipesaukee Wellness Center: It’s not just about physical health

MOULTONBOROUGH — Winnipesaukee Wellness Center is more than just a place to physically better your life; it’s a place that also betters your mental health, too. While the Wellness Center is there for health and fitness, it is also a place to feel at home and know that people care about you and your general well being.

Winnipesaukee Wellness Center in Moultonborough is a self-supporting department of LRGHealthcare available to serve the health and fitness needs of everyone, but especially for those with health problems. It’s not just a gym; it’s a place where folks can go for a workout that’s safe and supervised by a medical health professional. Those looking to start an exercise program, no matter their stage in life, can feel comfortable knowing there is medical staff on site to monitor the clients. 

The center is staffed by advanced emergency medical technicians 6:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.

What started as a maintenance program for cardio and pulmonary rehabilitation is now a full exercise center with most of the equipment one would find at a typical fitness center, but with the added benefits of medical supervision and according to its members ... an extended family. Strength training classes are also offered as part of the membership.

What’s even more special about the wellness centers are the friendships made. Members genuinely care about each other and are always so welcoming to new members. Some lifelong friendships are born at center, and when they lose a member it is felt by all. They celebrate holidays, birthdays, anniversaries and sometimes just celebrate being healthy and alive.
