Gym and Exercise Classes
We have a specialised gym and studio at BrainTree Wellness Centre, where we offer a variety of exercise classes and gym sessions, suitable for people with MS and Parkinson’s.
We know that exercise helps maintain function and independence for people with Parkinson’s and Multiple Sclerosis, while helping with the management of fatigue and other symptoms. Our classes can also be great for socialising with people who can understand your particular circumstances and abilities. There’s a wonderful sense of camaraderie and compassion between members and our class leaders.
Cost per Session:
Concession Cards = $10 per session (For 10 or more sessions)
Casual Visit = $12 per session
If you haven’t been in your exercise/gym class for more than 3-months, or have any questions regarding the suitability of classes, please BOOK AN ASSESSMENT first.
