Team Franciscan Center: Therapeutic Classes!



Dr. Jack Harless Manager



Many of us know or are suffering ourselves from conditions that lead to frailty & failure, such as Chronic Fatigue, Chronic Pain, Arthritis or Parkinson’s Disease.

Our exercise physiologists offer member classes here at The Francis-can Center that are specifically designed with these conditions in mind. The classes are designed to restore fun & function allowing us to live a truly Vital Life!

Exercise to manage Chronic Fatigue & Pain: A gentle approach to pain management offering therapeutic movement and relaxation techniques to feel rested and refreshed! Class is offered Thursdays at 9:00 am.

Parkinson’s Flexibility Training: This class takes place in our therapy pool. It offers gentle stretching and works out the stiffness and slow response normally associated with Parkinson’s disease and other neurological issues. Class is offered Wednesdays at 12:30 pm.

Arthritis Foundation Aquatic Class: This class takes place in our therapy pool. It is a recreational group exercise program that is geared to participants with different ability levels. Participants improve their joint flexibility and reduce pain and stiffness while sup-ported by the water’s buoyancy and resistance. Class is offered Thursdays at 3:00 pm.
