The Old Rectory Care Home gets moving with fun-filled fitness classes
Residents of The Old Rectory Care Home are staying fit and having fun, thanks to their regular exercise classes designed to encourage gentle movement and boost well-being. These fitness sessions, held in the comfort of the care home, are all about staying active while enjoying time with friends, proving that exercise can be both accessible and enjoyable for everyone.
With a focus on gentle, flowing movements, the classes allow everyone to participate from the comfort of their armchairs. These low-impact exercises are specially designed to promote flexibility, strength, and circulation without putting undue strain on the body—making them perfect for the elderly residents of The Old Rectory.
Exercise is important at any age, and The Old Rectory Care Home is committed to making sure it’s the opportunity to stay active and healthy is there. These gentle fitness classes not only help maintain physical fitness but also support mental well-being, improving mood and reducing feelings of isolation.
The benefits of gentle exercise, especially for older adults, are well-documented. Chair-based movements can help improve posture, enhance joint mobility, and increase muscle strength, all while minimising the risk of injury. Regular exercise also contributes to better cardiovascular health and can help reduce the symptoms of conditions like arthritis.
