Maureen Salas has been a member of WK South Wellness Center for the past 10 years. She joined the fitness center because she wants to stay as fit as possible and for exercise to help with her diabetes, arthritis and other health concerns. Salas chose the South location because of its proximity to her home. She feels very welcome by the fitness center staff and by WK’s cardiac rehabilitation staff when she received a heart stent. Staff from both groups help Salas learn and practice beneficial cardiovascular exercises. One of her favorite machines is the NuStep recumbent cross trainer because it does not bother her knee.
When she’s not exercising, Salas enjoys word puzzles and shopping. Her dream is to one day learn how to paint.
