MIMA’s New Fitness Center Supervised By Physicians, On-site Trainer
BREVARD COUNTY, FLORIDA – MIMA’s new LifeShape Fitness Center will host their Grand Opening on Friday, Jan. 15. The state-of-the-art facility, which will feature a high level of service, is located at 1130 Hickory St. in Melbourne.
“We want to add this fitness center that would be personalized to our patients and also the MIMA employees,” said Christa Bert, MIMA’s coordinator of patient and provider relations.
Members will have access to a treadmill, a recumbent bike, a stationary bike, an elliptical machine, a Smith machine, weights, balls, bands and an aerobics area. The center will be located at MIMA’S Bariatrics center at the hickory Building in Melbourne, Florida, complete with its own separate entrance and separate parking.
”It’s a personalized exercise facility that has equipment and a trainer available. It’s geared toward the needs of a patient who doesn’t want to go to a large facility or gym,” said LifeShape Trainer Christie Brandolini.
Planning for the fitness center began in July of 2009, when Dr. Mark Fusco approached MIMA leadership with his vision for the center.
“MIMA leadership thought it would be a great idea with the employee wellness program,” Bert said.
“They gave the OK, started looking at all of our current MIMA locations and they found the best place. They wanted to keep it in Melbourne so that it’s in the center of activity. They’re re-doing the Hickory building to create that into the MIMA cancer center, so it’s going to be an all-inclusive medical facility.
MIMA appointed Christy Brandolini as the Bariatrics center trainer. Brandolini has been with LifeShape program for three years, including work with 30 MIMA clients.
