Joy Wellness Center

Wellness programs have benefited people reporting a variety of con­di­tions and concerns:

• Stress – including work, school, family, financial, illness, aging, grief, uncer­tainty about the future and feeling “out of control”.
• Medical Con­di­tions – including chronic illness or pain, high blood pressure, fibrom­yal­gia, cancer, heart disease, asthma, GI stress, skin disorders and many other conditions.
• Psycho­lo­gi­cal distress – including anxiety, panic, depres­sion, fatigue and sleep disturbances.
• Pre­ven­tion and Wellness – including health enhan­ce­ment and wellness focused on Pre­ven­tion and learning the “how” of taking good care of yourself and feeling a greater sense of balance.

At Joy Wellness Center (JWC), we offer pro­gram­ming in four areas to respond to these needs: Movement Education, Healing Arts, Stress Reduction, and Nutrition Education. Classes include yoga, mindfulness-based stress reduction, breathing, nutrition, walking, smoking cessation, massage, medi­ta­tion, acu­punc­ture, and reflexology. All programs and therapies are designed spe­ci­fi­cally to create trans­for­ma­tive, healthy, life-affirming changes in the lives of our patients.

Tawanna Kane is the Joy Wellness Center Coordinator. Like all Shepherd’s Clinic pro­gram­ming, suggested donations for JWC services are based on a patient’s hourly wage.
