Who is gentleHOME!

​

gentleHOME is knitted together by a team of Iowa girls who have a heart for the hurting and a passion for a progressive approach to chronic pain. We are a small locally owned business doing everything we can to offer ways to help you feel better! Our team saw a gaping hole in the care and resources for individuals managing chronic pain and health issues.  We hear story after story from individuals living with chronic pain and health issues which confirms that there is a large population of people who don't feel heard.  Many people have not received a plan other than medications or surgical interventions to help manage their pain.  Sometimes those things are necessary.  An approach was needed, which reaches a person's body, brain, mind and soul...don't forget their environment...and of course what they put in their mouth! gentleHOME is our part in being an example for wellness care.

 

​

The nature of something being chronic can often indicate complexities that go beyond what you can see.  When someone hurts for so long, and they deal with multiple health issues it can take a tole.  Sometimes it comes from our decisions, sometimes it's from our environment and part of the time our genetics direct our responses to our environment. Proper education can bring light to how to manage chronic pain and health issues.  

​

​

Desiring to reach this population we created gG, a space that was more than a gym.  We wanted a space designed for individuals managing chronic pain and conditions to feel comfortable, heard, and guided as they journey through life.  Another major goal was to bridge the gap between medical care and independence. A gym space with appropriate equipment, safe atmosphere, no mirrors, warm water pool with underwater treadmill and 'the healing suite'.  'The healing suite' is a suite dedicated to equipment and tools to help our bodies and brains function better. If your body or brain functions better as fogginess and pain lift, your start to WANT to do exercise and the other things you need to do are easier to accomplish.

​

The gG team wanted to continue our mission of offering "Chronic Care Reimagined".  We know that it's not always possible to get to a gym or to an in person class, so we wanted to bring you classes and exercise options you can trust.  You can trust them because they were developed for individuals managing chronic pain and health conditions by a team of Medical Exercise Specialists who also teamed up with Agape Therapy Physical and Occupational Therapists to bring you a range of options.  We aren't the only online video option, but we believe in our mission and how we are going about implementing that mission.  No frills. No tricks. No illusions that we have all the answers.  Just simply gentleHOME.

This online platform doesn't take the place of medical or rehab care, it's a supplement.
