Amy and Brad McGown Make Healthier Choices and do Delta

Meet Amy and Brad McGown, our Members of the Month for July. When they joined Pinamonti Wellness Center they had one goal, to get in better shape and be healthy. Okay, that may sound like two goals, but the two go together so it counts as one. “We both realized we needed to improve our [...]
