New Wellness Portal Offers Complimentary Directory Listing to Wellness Professionals

Baltimore, MD December 29, 2003 -- A new fitness portal, Choosefitness.com, dedicated to health and wellness is now offering complimentary directory listings in its fitness directory, to wellness related professionals including, personal trainers, massage therapists, chiropractors, alternative medicine practitioners, and others with wellness related businesses.

The site owners have committed to making the directory listings available for free as their way of reaching out to the wellness community and encouraging a cooperative effort in making wellness resources available to Web visitors. "Community wellness is a mission we take seriously, and the free listing program is our effort to make it easy for folks to find professionals that can help them with their goals", says Garnes. "The free listings also allow us to establish solid relationships with other wellness professionals, for collaborative purposes".

The directory features a special layout that allows listers to include basic demographic data, a description of their business, rate information, geographic regions served, certifications, and a more field for additional information. Listers can also upload a logo of photograph to enhance their listing, and can record an audio greeting that streams from within their listing.

The remainder of the site allows visitors to search information relating to all aspects of health and wellness, including dieting, nutritional supplements, specialized strength training and fitness routines, aerobics and environmental health along with meditation, aromatherapy, and alternative medicine. The site owners also conduct product reviews of fitness equipment, nutritional supplements, environmental health devices, and other wellness related products and services, and report on them regularly.

Health, wellness and fitness topics are some of the most heavily searched on the Internet. Choosefitness.com pulls the information together in easy to access resource. With an ever increasing focus on health and wellness, Choosefitness comes along at a great time. Americans are realizing the importance of staying well instead of treating illness, and Choosefitness will have a role to play in that education process.

Other features include live chat rooms, forums and an exclusive Internet Radio show called "Fitness Talk Radio," devoted to health and fitness issues. Programs are available "on demand" so visitors don't have to tune in at a particular time. Because the radio show uses Flash technology, there are no special plug-ins necessary to listen, unlike most streaming media sources. The radio show is scheduled to launch just after January 1, 2004. The site has also added a special weblog called "Toxin Free Blog", which is devoted to environmental health, and ways to control exposure to toxins at home, in the workplace and elsewhere.

In addition to the comprehensive site benefits, visitors can sign up to have free fitness tips emailed to them each week. The weekly tips are free of advertisements and promotions. Health and wellness related professionals and businesses can obtain a complimentary listing in the site's fitness directory which features the ability to upload a photograph or logo, and to record an audio greeting for visitors.

Wellness professionals who want to take advantage of the free listing opportunity can submit their listing by visiting http://www.choosefitness.com/cgi-bin/pseek/addurl.cgi, and following the directions located under the "Add URL" link, or by emailing the company at feedback@choosefitness.com.
