PARKERSBURG — The WVU Medicine Health & Wellness Center at Camden Clark Medical Center is celebrating its 35th anniversary this month.
Since June 5, 1989, the Health & Wellness Center has provided a full-service fitness facility with amenities to Mid-Ohio Valley communities. Over that time, the center has evolved and adapted to the needs of its members and patients of Camden Clark.
The Health & Wellness Center offers educated, certified and experienced fitness professionals available to guide individuals in all stages of their wellness journeys, according to a release from Camden Clark. The medically based fitness model was adopted to assist individuals in managing their overall health and wellness, rather than a sole focus on fitness.
Amenities include state-of-the-art equipment; group fitness classes; pool areas; a sauna and steam room; basketball, racquetball and pickleball areas; and more. The Health & Wellness Center also offers several clinically integrated programs to ensure the continuity of care for Camden Clark patients.
As part of its anniversary celebrations this week, guests could enjoy an 80’s theme and decorations, a selfie photo booth, free healthy snacks and giveaways. Health & Wellness Center memberships are also being offered for $35 for the first month throughout the month of June.
