The swimming pools are busy, classes are filling up fast and the exercise equipment is humming again at Vacaville’s premier fitness center for the first time since the pandemic brought everything to a halt.

But there’s one major difference: It’s now Active Wellness Center at NorthBay Health, and is operated by San Francisco-based Active Wellness, after a new partnership with NorthBay Health was announced in May.

The three-story fitness center, which anchors the VacaValley Wellness Center at 1020 Nut Tree Drive, features 53,500-square-feet of fitness and boutique fitness studios. Offerings include indoor cycling, yoga, boxing, small group training, heart-rate training, personal training services and medically integrated fitness programs. The facility also includes an indoor therapy pool, a group activity pool, a whirlpool and a 25-yard lap pool.

A wide variety of group classes and lifestyle programs are available. In addition, there are recovery and restorative programs, child care, youth programs and stocked locker rooms.

Active Wellness partners with medical organizations in numerous locations to inspire healthier lives and extend the continuum of care. Their services function as a liaison between hospitals, physicians and patients to support whole-person health care.

“We’re honored to serve the Vacaville community, in partnership with NorthBay Health, to inspire healthier, more active lives.”
Michele Wong, COO of Active Wellness

In other communities Active developed programs and opportunities for patients dealing with cancer, diabetes, arthritis, Parkinson’s, post-surgery and more.

Konard Jones. “Our priorities are in alignment, and we are looking forward to seeing them create an exceptional experience in an environment where a healthy lifestyle is created, one that will well serve the members, our patients and our community.”

Michele Wong, COO from Active Wellness, agreed. “Active Wellness Center at NorthBay Health is set to reopen stronger than ever. We’re honored to serve the Vacaville community, in partnership with NorthBay Health, to inspire healthier, more active lives.”

Morgan Jolley, Assistant Vice President of Strategy and Business Development, has been involved in the process to find the right partner.

“This demonstrates NorthBay’s commitment to continue to invest in the health of our communities,” he said. “As a leading health system in Solano County, we believe creating access to high-quality fitness centers, hospitals and everything in between is essential in order to elevate health in our community.”
