HealthMedia® Move TM

HealthMedia® MoveTM is intended to help individuals with sedentary to moderately active lifestyles break down barriers to physical activity. The program is designed to help users move to the next level of physical activity at a safe, gradual pace that is suited to their own unique characteristics and state of health. Move was created to get people engaged in a daily activity regimen, to experience the short-term health benefits, and, as a result, maintain the motivation and commitment to stay active for the long term. The goal of the program is to help users enjoy longer, healthier, and more productive lives.

"Move is truly an innovative approach to physical activity and gets to the root of why so many other programs fail," said Dr. Vic Strecher, HealthMedia Founder and Chief Science Officer. "Move speaks to each individual – to his or her unique characteristics, barriers, and interests - and helps individuals reconnect to their physical selves and reframe their thoughts and feelings around physical activity."

MoveTM gets to know each user through an in-depth interview process and helps to identify the types of activities that are appropriate, accessible, and enjoyable to the user. It then creates a personalized plan utilizing the HealthMedia® Step by StepTM tool and pedometer tracker.
