Health & Wellbeing

Gunnison-Crested Butte has a true laid back atmosphere, packaged by nature that lends itself as a unique place to unplug and recharge. Cool, clean Rocky Mountain air and a life style of pure fun and simplicity welcome you. You will find yourself in a place with professional athletes and likely more health and wellness practioners per capita, than anywhere else in the country! A few well known personalities include Gloria Beam, MD, team physician to the US Summer Olympic Team in Greece, Head Physician for the US Olympic Committee and Team Physician for USA Basketball in 2005, and Physician for the US Alpine Ski Team just to name 4 of many of her achievements.  Local Dave Wiens outperformed Lance Armstrong in the 2008 Leadville 100 to take 1st place over the record breaking, seven consecutive time Tour de France champion, and Rebecca Dussault, local cross country skier competed in the 2006 Winter Olympics. These people represent a small sample of those who choose to live and raise their families in our special place of health and wellness.

As people of all ages focus on healthy lifestyles for their spirit, mind and body, it has expanded to go beyond traditional Western practices to include such things as acupuncture, yoga, Pilates, Reiki, orthobionomy, physical therapy, Rolfing and many other modalities, all of which can be found here. A local association of health and wellness professionals, Wellbeing Connection, makes it easy for an introduction into the alternatives of healing arts with year-round offerings as well as many local studios.
