WELCOME TO WELLTRAX-FROM DR. D
All of us here at WELLTRAX are very concerned about the Coronavirus and the impact that it is having throughout our communities in Florida and beyond. We are being extra cautious and have decided to not offer massages and training at this time but we hope that we will be able to soon. We feel the pain of the community around us having to shut down and our hearts go out to everyone who is affected during this time. Although we are suspending massages and training, we still offer internet training and phone wellness consultations.
