Special Theme Programs
Salus has designed special programs so you may focus on your specific interests. Programs with a special theme can include:

The Salus Yoga experience: learn different approaches to Hatha yoga and how yoga improves the heart and blood pressure. Participants master simple but powerful poses that they can do on a regular basis to increase flexibility, improve posture and achieve relaxation.
Women and Heart Disease: heart disease is the number one killer of women, just as it is of men. However, there are some significant differences in the causes and presentation of heart disease in women. Dr. Treister, who leads this program, is a recognized expert on heart disease in women and a regular lecturer on the subject at The Golden Door resort.
The Salus Tennis Program: learning to practice yoga, mindfulness and improving balance and the breath can all improve your tennis game.
