About US
Senior Fitness and Wellness serve the elderly population around the South Sacramento area and Elk Grove. We offer our fitness services both virtual and on-site. Exercise is vital for every senior because it creates an enormous positive impact on an individual. Exercise and fitness improve concentration, mood, circulation, gait, sleep, and more energy. In addition, exercise and fitness help decrease high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and high blood glucose. We need to take care of ourselves by eating healthy foods, getting enough sleep, minimizing stress, staying hydrated, and, most of all exercising every day. We don't exercise to be slim, but we exercise to live healthily.
Each month we send newsletters to our seniors in the community providing senior health information, education, and fun and creative tips for activities. Our main goal is to improve the health and well-being of every resident and provide access to community resources.
