Why is Fitness and Nutrition important at Rehab?
Based on those tests, our Fitness team will develop a unique fitness plan for you and your fitness level and work towards achieving those goals over the time you are with us and when you return home – whether that is to add some lean muscle, reduce body weight or increase stamina and feel great.
Most people identify rehab with Therapy. And while Therapy is the main pillar of our treatment program, from 12 years experience we know that health, fitness and nutrition are equally important pillars of our Body, Mind and Soul treatment philosophy. They are both important tools as part of going home to continue good habits, healthy eating and activities to keep you busy.
Many people who struggle with substance abuse tend to neglect their health, fitness and nutrition. At Jintara, one of the first things you do is a detailed medical checkup at our partner hospital, so we understand your body composition and any health concerns as a baseline. This will include detailed blood work, liver and kidney function test and EKG if required.
