Marc Sickel and his team of trainers/therapists are without a doubt the ABSOLUTE BEST! My son has been working with FFH for more than 6 years now. As a parent of two kids with special needs, rest assured your child will get a customized plan that caters to his/her individual needs. Most of the plans are designed by Marc himself, a renown expert in this field.

Fitness for Health is the best! The staff is kind and knowledgeable, the equipment is state-of-the-art. My son is never bored or frustrated because there is so much to do and his routine is always varied just enough to keep it interesting. He thinks he is playing and having fun and he is, but he is also getting a superior OT workout for his brain and body.

My sister, Tina, has Multiple Sclerosis, and as anyone with MS knows, exercise after diagnosis is definitely different than before. However, my sister started a new program. It is called BioDensity, and it’s not just good for her body, it’s good for her mind too. Fitness For Health calls itself a gym, but we’ve never seen a gym like this before. When Tina was first referred to Fitness for Health, she had been diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, and had heard about their innovative physical therapy program called BioDensity. One of the employees, William Sickel, contacted her to introduce himself and tell Tina a little about the program. BioDensity was actually developed to help combat Osteoporosis. He explained that, “Weight-bearing exercises are the key to stimulating bone growth, and the greater the weight applied, the better the results. BioDensity delivers weight—known as osteogenic loading—at multiples of your bodyweight, and beyond what is typically achieved in basic exercise...Research has also shown significant stability and functional movement improvements with multiple populations.” He took a brief medical history, and asked Tina what her goals were. After they got her doctor’s approval (since she also has a heart condition) she made an appointment to get started. When she began, she wasn’t sure what to expect. I mean, Fitness For Health is a gym that does everything from training champion athletes to physical therapy for children, adults, and seniors. It could have been anything from a room filled with weights to a plain, institutionalized setting. She was happily surprised. The inside looks like a cross between a playground (complete with trampoline and rock climbing wall) and a video game room, with a few high tech exercise machines thrown in, just for fun. Her trainer, the other owner, Marc Sickel, met Tina in the waiting area and led her to one of their high tech machines that looks like a chair that amazingly she got to...sit in! As a general rule, Tina has never been a big fan of exercise- both before and after MS. We had been assured that it was not strenuous, but that she would get the maximum level of benefit out of it. Let’s just say we were skeptical. That is not the image that exercise brings to mind...can anyone say sit-ups? She was eased through a series of burst like exercises that that could be done at her own pace, and only one of the exercises was done standing up. This was fantastic! Since starting the BioDensity and Power Plate therapies at Fitness For Health, not only has Tina’s health improved, but specifically, she is doing better as a whole. Both she and I have noticed that her balance, energy and stamina have improved. Although MS pain ebbs and flows, she feels that it has also decreased. Without a doubt, BioDensity and Power Plate have made a huge improvement in my sister’s life. Just like their top of the line exercise equipment, the atmosphere at Fitness For Health is like none other. The staff make you feel like family. You can tell that they are truly invested in their clients progress. Although definitely a secondary concern to your health, scheduling appointments is always a quick and pleasant process. There is nothing like loving your doctor but hating their office. Well, none of that here. From the science behind the process, to the owners, the staff and the equipment, everything at Fitness For Health works together in harmony to form a great team. Thank you Fitness For Health.
