An
important groundbreaking Medicare decision!
Pritikin Longevity Center & Spa, the
world's most highly respected health and wellness destination, is
perfectly located at a state-of-the art facility at the famed Doral Golf
Resort & Spa, A Marriott Resort in Miami.
It is the first and only residential healthy-lifestyle education program
in the country to offer Medicare-covered intensive cardiac rehabilitation,
or ICR. By combining Pritikin’s extensive menu of medical, health,
wellness and spa services with the finest resort facilities and amenities,
the complex enhances Pritikin’s position as the nation’s premier
spa/health destination.
Medicare will
pay for Pritikin’s intensive diet-and-exercise programs for qualifying
individuals with a history or risk of cardiovascular events, the Centers
for Medicare and Medicaid Services has disclosed.
The criteria for coverage of an
intensive cardiac rehabilitation program by Medicare are stringent,
including such requirements as peer-reviewed, published research demon-strating
that the program reduces the need for bypass surgery as well as
significantly lowers cholesterol levels, triglycerides, body mass index,
and blood pressure, and the need for medications for cholesterol, blood
pressure, and diabetes.
Over the past 35 years, more than 115
studies have been published in leading peer-reviewed journals, including
the Archives of Internal Medicine and the New England Journal
of Medicine, proving that participants in the Pritikin Program
achieve these and other significant health benefits, including substantial
and sustained weight loss.
Programs:
Pritikin’s main structure features a
four-story, glass-roofed atrium entrance, Carrera marble, Keystone Coral
walls, and other stunning touches. The complex also features private
indoor and outdoor salt-water pools, a huge and magnificently equipped
fitness center, indoor and outdoor yoga and meditation centers, and indoor
and outdoor running tracks.
Other amenities include a new,
state-of-the-art spa with experiential showers, aqua-thermal bathing
experiences, Finnish saunas, outdoor solariums, thermal-heated loungers,
deluxe spa suites, and two world-class Pritikin restaurants.
Luxurious rooms and suites
from 400 to 1400 square feet, include private balcony, water views,
oversized bathrooms with television, Jacuzzis for two, separate shower,
bidet, and twice daily maid service.
Surrounding the site, amidst the 650 acres of
gardens and open space, are tennis courts, swimming pools, and five
championship golf courses -- including the famous Blue Monster, home of
the PGA Tour for over 45 years.
In more than 110 studies over the past three
decades, scientists have documented remarkable health benefits – reduced
blood pressure and cholesterol levels, weight loss, diabetes control, and
others – among thousands of Pritikin guests.
