ONR is committed to providing every resident with the resources and services they need to maintain or regain their optimal level of independence. In addition to physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy, ONR offers wellness and fitness programs. These programs, which combine lectures, education, exercise classes, and newsletters, focus on mind and body. They provide the resources, motivation and encouragement to help older adults age in place.

Education, Fitness & Rehab Therapy

ONR provides a variety of fitness classes to ensure optimum results for each participant. All classes will begin with a session on the benefits of exercise for seniors, starting an exercise program, choosing exercise attire and goal setting. This will increase compliance and improve outcomes.

Program highlights of what we offer through various facilities or communities we work with.

Tai Chi: The ancient practice of tai chi involves a series of postures and movements that flow together to promote stability, strength, and flexibility, as well as mental acuity. *By facility request.

Chair Yoga: Yoga is one of the oldest forms of exercise and provides both mental and physical benefits including flexibility, stress relief, general fitness, and improved overall health. Chair yoga offers the benefits of traditional yoga to participants with balance and endurance challenges.

Aquatic Class: Aquatic exercise works multiple body systems at the same time with a low risk of injury and stress to the joints. People of all fitness levels can reap the benefits of this type of exercise, as the buoyancy of being in the water can provide both support and resistance.
