FOX REHABILITATION’S OPTIMAL LIVING PROGRAM ALLOWS SENIOR LIVING RESIDENTS TO AGE IN PLACE
FOX Optimal Living is FOX Rehabilitation’s premier wellness model. It is provided to senior living partners who recognize the importance of functional wellness. It is entirely evident that strength, balance, endurance, and flexibility must be maintained for older adults to lead the lives they desire and deserve.

“I had been in the hospital, and after that I had to sign up for escor services to take me down to the dining room. Since being on PT, I have been able to get rid of my escort all together! I walk by myself and farther than I have in years.” – AMBASSADOR SCARSDALE RESIDENT
“My dad could be in the worst mood, and then goes down for therapy in the FOX gym, and it gives him hope.” – AMBASSADOR SCARSDALE FAMILY MEMBER
