Senior Wellness For Elders
Comprehensive Wellness Programs for the Young at Heart
It’s time for Mom or Dad to ditch the recliner and TV for a more active lifestyle! Envision’s Comprehensive Wellness Program, located at senior communities throughout St. Louis, offers a variety of exercise and enrichment classes to help your loved one improve their health, find new interests, socialize with others, and just have fun.
This isn’t all bingo and board games, but rather exciting activities that engage your family member’s mind and body for a happier, healthier life well into their golden years!
Our Mission for Senior Wellness
The mission of our Wellness Service is to improve the physical, social, and emotional health of our members by providing preventative health services, socialization, and a continued relationship that embraces a healthy lifestyle.
What is the Envision Wellness Program?
One of the greatest risks to a senior’s overall health isn’t age or illness – it’s isolation. Loneliness is linked to everything from dementia to hospital readmission. But you can’t always be at home with your loved one, and you can’t always drive them around town to activities.
The Envision Wellness Program is a holistic alternative to traditional adult day care in St. Louis. Housed at senior and assisted living communities across the area, the Wellness Program is membership-based, costing just $45 per month, and is open to all center residents as well as to any seniors still living in their own homes.
Membership includes all exercise classes, health screenings, and community events – and your loved one can attend as many activities they like, as often as they like! Depending on your loved one’s insurance, the Program may even qualify for SilverSneakers™ reimbursement.

What A Patient Had to Say
I have been a resident at Park Place at Winghaven for six years When Envision took over the fitness program, their silver sneakers and Water Aerobics exercises make an improvement to my physical and mental health. Their presentations were full of fun as well as being beneficial to my well being. This made my being healthy fun and encouraged my further participation. My wife has recently used Envision's Physical Therapy department and has experienced a marked reduction of her back pain. Envision has earned our highest recommendation. George A.
