Ezer Mizion's Malka Hager Fitness Center has opened a new gym facility for the senior population, equipped with sophisticated apparatus.

The fitness center, which is run by Ezer Mizion in collaboration with Eshel and local municipalities, aims to maintain vitality, promote health and prevent illness primarily among the independent elderly sector.

Renovations were financed by the generous funding of the Hager family and the Claims Conference.

An individualized program is formulated for each participant according to their particular needs and capabilities, with personal attention for each senior.

The exercise facility is located on the same floor as Ezer Mizion's Yankel Kornwasser Hydrotherapy Pool, which enables the seniors to move easily from aquatic therapy to "dry exercises".

In addition to the gym, the renovated Fitness Center features a spacious lecture room which hosts workshops and lectures for the senior population throughout the year on a variety of topics.
