New On Our Blog
On our blog this week, Domi shares her insights on how technology can help us achieve better health and wellness:
“Nymbl has been an amazing benefit for those who participate in their home or attend our group sessions. Since starting back in November there has been a decrease in user falls as well as increased confidence when it comes to overall balance abilities. Not only have I seen physical benefits but the use of this app also provides cognitive and social benefits as well.”
– Domi Aouad, Wellness Coordinator
