60's THE NEW 40! ACTIVE AGING THE RIGHT WAY
Who says you have to stop doing the things you want just because you’ve hit another milestone in your age?
Maybe your body is telling you? You’ve worked hard for years and now that you’ve peaked, now is not the time to listen to anyone telling you to slow down.
But it is time to make sure you’re getting normal maintenance. Just like that nice car that takes you on those outings.
AGING ALONE?
Did you know….? 9 OUT OF 10 PEOPLE WANT TO ACTIVELY AGE AT HOME
As we age, the question of whether we should stay in our homes or go live in a nursing home arises…
But, how do you know when it’s time?
Or maybe you’re thinking of your actively aging parents?
They have been in their home for 20, 30, 40 years and just can’t stand the thought of living anywhere else.
MedXfit Houston has a solution for you.
active AGING AND INDEPENDENCE
You’ve gone out on the course and your ball striking skills diminished and you lack the power that once came naturally? Or are you having a tough time deciding if it is your hand-eye coordination, balance, or vision take their toll on your golf game?
Maybe mom had a fall and needed help getting up. She was on the floor for several hours before you came to check on her.
Or you’ve noticed that neighbor has trouble getting around on her own. She needs transportation to doctor appointments and help with shopping. She’s disoriented and weak.
YOU ARE CAPABLE OF YOUR OWN INDEPENDENCE
All these people have one thing in common.
They’re in need of assistance but don’t want to give up their independence.
Independence may mean different things to different people but most people throughout their lives place a very high value on the idea of independence.
AGE WITH FREEDOM IN MIND
When aging, people want to be able to make their own decisions and engage in the activities that they want to take care of their own physical needs.
They don’t want to be a burden on anyone.
Luckily, some options can help them remain safe and happy in their homes.

FAQ
Here are some of the questions of our clients. Check some of them here.
How often will we exercise?
It depends on your current level of function. We see most of our clients 1-3 times a week.
How long should the companion (relative) or the elder (patient) stay in their home?
We recommend that you look at 3 factors. The person, the property, and support network. We use standardized testing to determine if a person is too weak, lost too much memory, or otherwise would be inappropriate to stay in their home. We also take into account the person’s ability to manage their property and make recommended changes. Finally, we look at the social supports that are necessary to provide quality of life.
Why should we hire you?
If you want a professional, cost efficient help with the benefits of remaining in place such as (1) saving money, (2) being more comfortable, (3) keeping your memory intact, (4) sense of self determination, then our team will be glad to be of service to you.
Why do I need this?
Often, as you age, you can lose strength in your legs. This can cause bladder infections, trouble getting in the sower or off the toilet, or getting in the car to go to restaurants. Our team of specialists will help you reduce or prevent all of these.
What’s in it for me?
You’ll have the ability to spend your golden years enjoying time with your spouse or your grandchildren. You can feel safe knowing that you’re stronger, more balanced, and self sufficient.
Do I need my own equipment?
Although we do bring equipment during home visits, we recommend that you have your own equipment to use when we are not working with you. If you need advice on what to get, we would happily make recommendations.
