Spring 2014

The Edmonton and area Primary Care Networks (PCNs) have partnered with local municipal recreation facilities in a unique venture where local family physicians prescribe physical activity to their patients! Arctic Spas Recreation Complex is enthused to be one of the numerous recreation facilities on board with this program! Get a physical activity prescription from your doctor and bring it into the complex and you will receive a one month (one time only) FREE membership to our facility in hopes of promoting an active and healthy lifestyle among our community members!

Who Benefits with Prescription to Get Active?

Those who are active live longer, healthier lives. The benefits of regular physical activity includes: better mental health, better sleep, increased energy levels, building and maintaining strong muscles, less susceptible to illness, longer life span, and many more!

People who are inactive have an increased chance of developing these health concerns: anxiety, depression, heart disease, obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, osteoporosis, and many other health concerns.

Change your life now, change it today! The power is yours!

For more information on Prescription to Get Active visit www.PrescreptionToGetActive.com

BONUS! As an added bonus, Arctic Spas Recreation Complex will be offering our members who receive the FREE monthly membership, a 1 hour private session with Kristen Eliasson (CSEP Certified Personal Trainer & NASM Corrective Exercise Specialist) which will include an introduction to the weight room and learning basic work out techniques.
