"ActiveRx" combines two powerful ideas: ‘Active’, representing movement, lifestyle, and proactive health—and ‘Rx’, the medical symbol for a prescription. Together, it reflects our core belief: that exercise is medicine. At ActiveRx, we provide tailored, evidence-based exercise programs as a prescribed approach to help you move better, feel stronger, and live healthier.

We assess, prescribe, and supervise exercise programs tailored to your health needs to improve function, manage symptoms, and enhance your quality of life.
