Get Fit for Summer Sports

Dr. Ashley Fox has joined The Wellness Center of Plymouth, the office of Elizabeth Sisk, DC, director of chiropractic, and Scott Anderson, DC. She has developed skill as an athletic trainer and chiropractic sport physician to serve those looking to improve their game and overall function.

            Athletic training is a custom assessment of current and future goals in physical health. Whether starting out or trying to step up to the next level, personal training sessions are $45 for a 30-minute session or $60 for a 60-minute session. Clients will leave with a custom plan to get them onto the path of health and wellness. All plans are customized and include proper form, breathing, rep and set counts.

            The Wellness Center provides a comprehensive, holistic approach to health and wellness. The cornerstone of health is balanced body systems and the five pillars of chiropractic care—laser therapy, pulsed electromagnetic frequency therapy, massage, weight loss and nutrition—working together to bring the body into an optimal state of balance.

Location: 1075 Ann Arbor Rd., Plymouth. For appointments and more information, call 734-454-5600 or visit WellnessCenterOfPlymouth.com.
