The holiday season is upon us, and the James C. Kennedy Wellness Center in Charleston has some great deals for our community!
The pandemic has really taken a toll on many of us, especially regarding health and wellness. It is estimated that over half of adults have gained undesired weight during the pandemic and our mental and emotional health has been negatively impacted as well.
We want to help you reclaim your health, increase energy and mood, lose any undesired weight and reach your wellness goals. There is no time like the present to make a commitment to your health and wellness.

Diabetes Solutions
Last January we launched a virtual diabetes self-management program for individuals with diabetes and pre-diabetes. We offer services via telephone, FaceTime or Zoom and the program is tailored toward the needs of the individual. The virtual format is easily accessible for participants from their own homes or work.
To date, participants have achieved an average reduction in A1c of 2.45% as well as significant weight loss and other positive health outcomes such as reduced pain, improved emotional health, better sleep, more energy, improved digestion and reduction in medications among many others!
If you or someone you know is struggling with diabetes or has been diagnosed with pre-diabetes, please refer them to our program. Call the Wellness Center at 662-625-7214 or check out our website for more information: www.jckwellness.com/diabetessolutions
Diaper and Feminine Product Bank
On the third Thursday of the month, we give away free diapers and feminine products for anyone in need of these items.
Please reach out and let us know if you have questions or want more information. We hope to see you at the Wellness Center soon. Happy Holidays!
