HUR Wins 2014 Medical Fitness Association's Best Practice Partner Technology & Innovation Award

The 2014 Medical Fitness Association’s Best Practice Partner Technology & Innovation Award  recognizes companies whose new technology, or new innovations, impact the mission of the Medical Fitness Industry to treat chronic disease and aging through exercise.
 

The Medical Fitness Association, Inc. (MFA), a professional association that seeks to lead a global network of medically integrated fitness centers and programs in the pursuit of well-being, has named HUR  as the winner of the 2014 Medical Fitness Association Technology & Innovation Award. As part of the annual MFA awards series, the Technology and Innovation Award is based on the impact that a new technology or innovation has in meeting the wide ranging needs of the medical fitness industry. To be considered the technology or innovation must address one or more of the association’s target audiences (general health and wellness for all ages, pre- and post- rehabilitation of acute patients, long term chronic disease management through exercise, and maintaining health as we age). (Richmond, VA, November 12, 2014)
 
HUR’s computerized Smart Card exercise machines and HUR iBalance testing systems provide a comprehensive solution to implement medical fitness and active aging programs. The Smart Card software sets up machines automatically, and all activity on the machines is recorded for reporting, user feedback and accurate outcomes.

“We are humble, honored and proud of the Medical Fitness Association's recognition by awarding us the Technology & Innovation Award. HUR product and software development is based on research and customer feedback”, says Juha Vaisanen, President of HUR  USA. “We continue to work hard to provide our customers with the best tools to implement their medical fitness programs, measure the outcomes and support them to grow their businesses."
 
“Many companies have supported the Medical Fitness Association as Best Practice Partners over the years,” says Bob Boone, FACHE, FMFA, President and CEO. “Through their programs, products and services, these forward-thinking organizations support health, wellness and the promotion of exercise as medicine. HUR Health and Fitness Equipment is one such company who has taken this concept to a new level. By continuing to develop and refine their products for use across a wide spectrum of people from those recovering from injury or surgery to an active aging population, they are helping to drive the industry forward. On behalf of MFA, I congratulate HUR on winning this year’s Best Practice Partner Technology and Innovation Award.”

As an MFA award-winner, HUR was recognized by the industry and their peers at the 23rd Annual Medical Fitness Association International Conference on November 12, 2014 in Orlando, Florida.
