Journey Forward Exercize Program

5/8/2009 12:00:00 AM

Journey Forward is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization dedicated to improving the lives of those who have suffered a spinal cord Injury through an intense exercise program. The latest research has shown that through exercise, individuals with spinal cord injuries can experience greater health, live longer lives, and most importantly gain independence and increase in function. We are able to focus on client goals that can range from regaining lost function to simply receiving the normal benefits of exercise. Since this injury forces most to be in a chair for the majority of the day, we work to get our clients out of their chairs and focus on functional exercises and activities.

Traditionally, after the first 6 months of a spinal cord injury people are given little to no hope of increasing their independence. However we have found that given the correct stimulus individuals with this injury can improve and continue to get better. This is where Journey Forward specializes. We offer those with spinal cord injuries an aggressive and effective exercise based program.

Journey Forward’s long-term goals are to make this program more accessible to those who need it. We are accomplishing this by working and fundraising to open centers throughout the country, as well as making it more affordable to those who so desperately need this program.

We are located about 20 minutes south/west of Boston at 755 Dedham Street, Canton, MA 02021. For more information please visit www.Journey-Forward.org or call (781) 828-3233
