The Philippi Wellness Center is designed with the health and wellness of our members as top priority. Located in the back of Barbour Chiropractic Center at 206 N. Main Street, Philippi Wellness Center strives to provide basic wellness and preventative services to area citizens. Our recently opened health center provides members with opportunities for indoor cardio (heart, lung, circulatory system) exercise and strength training.

Here are five benefits the Philippi Wellness Center offers to members.

1. Trusted and Dedicated Staff Members.
Philippi Wellness Center might seem intimidating for newcomers, but with our friendly and knowledgeable staff, those first-time jitters will quickly fade away. Trent, Taylee, Ricki or Donna welcome all members with expertise and motivation. Although we do have our more athletic members, most of us are just regular folks who are making progress one day at a time.

2. Warning: Inspiration ahead.
With our dedicated and driven team, you will find yourself becoming more and more inspired after each visit. We hope that our staff and the wellness center atmosphere can motivate you on your fitness journey as you see others committed to health and exercise regardless of age, proportions, or fitness level. You will quickly realize you can do it too!

3. Watch your medical costs and medications diminish.
With a doctor’s approval and direction, you have the opportunity to lower both your medical costs and your medication intake by simply taking your health journey to the next level. Folks who exercise regularly have found that they may visit the doctor less frequently and even come off certain medications in time. Regular exercise also strengthens your immune system which may help you ward off so many things that can zap your energy and make you sick.

4. Boost in confidence.
As you feel stronger, have better balance, and increase your lung capacity, you will be more confident about everything from a trip to the mall to a couple of laps around the track! Research shows that regular exercise can increase self-esteem and have you feeling your best — both mentally and physically!

5. Keep anxiety and depression at a distance.
New research shows people who set aside time to exercise are happier than those that don’t. You also increase your chances of sleeping better, are more likely to be conscious about eating healthier and generally have a better mood. Routine exercise can help release feel-good endorphins, hence, making you feel better and even happier!
