Is it possible to reverse the effects of aging? And I’m not talking about using an anti-wrinkle cream! I’m talking to all those who want to feel young again, to improve their quality of life so they can enjoy a healthier and longer life.
With a preventive approach, Nautilus Plus’s new Vivre Plus Solution gives you the opportunity to carry out the daily activities that really matter to you, with greater ease. Whether it’s playing with your grandchildren, getting a better golf swing, or maybe even starting a physical activity you thought was impossible. Now is the time to regain the energy you thought you’d lost and even the energy you didn’t know you had! But that’s not all…
For the first time ever, our kinesiologists and nutritionists are joining forces with the health professionals of the Medfuture medical clinic to offer you the most complete support. This multidisciplinary approach allows us to know your health status and to better orient our recommendations. We can then apply an appropriate action plan to prevent health problems or better control a particular condition.
You may never have set foot in a fitness center. You may wish to better control a specific condition such as diabetes, cardiovascular problems, arthritis, osteoarthritis or other. You may wish to relieve minor physical ailments that have developed over the years. You may be preparing for retirement or are already there and want to make the most of it.
Whatever your reasons, you can rest assured that our team of professionals will work at YOUR pace, respecting YOUR fitness level, YOUR goals, and YOUR state of health.
Here are some of the services offered as part of the Vivre Plus solution that are worth exploring!
This innovative test, exclusive to Medfuture, is designed by the medical team of the Centers for Age Control, an American organization specialized in the non-invasive evaluation of age-related changes. The test lasts approximately 20 minutes. It is comprised of six tests, with the use of a mobile application, that challenge memory, hearing, decision making time, reaction time, speed of movement and coordination. Once completed, a vitality index in comparison with age is determined. The test is performed in our Nautilus Plus centers. The Vitality Index Analysis includes a medical video consultation during which the health professional presents and interprets the results.
Our employees had the chance to try the Vitality Index test and were extremely excited about their experience. Find out what the buzz is about!
This virtual meeting takes place in the comfort of your own home or at the Nautilus Plus center of your choice. During this 15-minute medical consultation, you will meet with a healthcare professional (a physician or a specialized nurse practitioner, depending on the chosen package) to discuss:
The health professional will then suggest measures that can be applied to improve your health. Virtual consultations are conducted via a secure telemedicine platform approved by the Ministry of Health and Social Services (MHSS).
The physical health assessment enables us to establish a contact with you, to obtain a view of your physical condition and to establish your global health profile. In addition to the Vivre Plus Questionnaire, which is completed with the kinesiologist, the physical health assessment includes several different evaluations depending on your condition and needs. It includes:
Because we recognize how important eating habits are, the objective of this one-hour nutritional consultation with a Nautilus Plus nutritionist is to make a brief assessment of your eating habits and to suggest dietary recommendations to improve your overall health. Follow-up meetings are included in some packages.
In addition to these services, and depending on the package you choose, you will have access to the Nautilus Plus facilities, to the Ultime Fit online training and nutrition platform, and of course, you will benefit from a customized training program by your trainer/kinesiologist who will also accompany you during “discovery” sessions so you can familiarize yourself with the various activities offered at the club.
With the Vivre Plus Solution, you will have the winning formula to improve your health and well-being and to be young in body and in mind for a long time!
