Blue Mountain Health System

The Fitness Center of the Blue Mountain Health System

 

The Blue Mountain Health System offers Health Works, a medically-supervised fitness center that is open to the public. 

 

Every member is offered a health assessment to determine special exercise needs and a one-on-one orientation to the equipment in the center. A qualified staff member will recommend a starting exercise program based on the evaluation. Individual personal training is available with certified personal trainers. Nutritional evaluations are available by our certified nutrition specialist.

 

In a medically-supervised fitness center, members who have health limitations have the confidence that they will be instructed on how to exercise safely in spite of health conditions. Exercise programs are designed for the healthy population as well as those with heart and lung disease, diabetes, arthritis, and other physical limitations. All staff are CPR and AED certified. They are trained to check blood pressures, pulse rates and oxygen saturations.

 

The Health Works fitness center offers the most advanced exercise equipment for both aerobic exercise and strength training. Healthworks in Lehighton offers group classes such as a variety of level aerobics, yoga, pilates, kickboxing, core training and body toning. Members can take advantage of the classes for a minimal fee. In addition, the center offers locker rooms with private showers and changing areas.
