The center offers sports medicine services including physical therapy, aquatic therapy and athletic training to improve strength, speed and endurance. Middletown Regional Hospital wants to serve its communities in the region. These are areas where we're trying to reach out to provide services and practices. The center features rehabilitation and strength-train ing equipment, as well as areas for classes and athletic training. It is designed to be a comprehensive environment for rehabilitative care and health maintenance, hospital officials said.
Equipment includes stationary bikes, treadmills and weight systems.
We've initiated a comprehensive outreach program to bring special services and classes to our communities rather than requiring area residents seeking wellness services to visit the hospital. Middletown Regional in January started offering some wellness classes at the Countryside YMCA in Lebanon, Mrs. Freitag said. It is possible a sports and wellness center could be developed there, but no plans have been set. The Cincinnati Enquirer , a Gannett Co. Inc. newspaper.
