The Army Wellness Center Program helps Soldiers and retirees, their families, and Army civilians build and sustain good health. It empowers them to set their own health goals and achieve them. It addresses lifestyle change in areas that affect both short- and long-term health, engaging people in the places where they live, work, relax, and rest.
The 6 Core Programs Include:
Health Assessment Review- Analysis of health and risk status.
General Wellness Education- Classes on topics such as healthy sleep habits, self-care, and healthy living habits.
Physical Fitness- VO2 Submaximal testing using state-of-the-art equipment. This is used to create individualized exercise prescription.
