Manicured Gardens

An Oasis Right At Home.

Observing the beauty of nature can do wonders for the healing process. At MediLodge of Munising, we infuse every aspect of our surroundings with comfort. Due to careful attention to detail, our well-cared-for, pleasing gardens are a relaxing space. Because of the many health benefits, our staff always includes outdoor activities in our residents’ weekly schedules.

Nature heals. While a quiet garden stroll is known to awaken feelings of happiness and peace, research has gone a long way to prove this fact. Because our appreciation of nature is genetic, it is deeply rooted. For example, did you know that those who get a natural view from their hospital bed recover sooner than others? It explains why we crave time to figure out things amidst nature when stress levels are high.

Nature and Health

Nature helps in emotional regulation and improves health in many ways.Time spent outdoors with a backdrop of our pristine gardens helps to do the following:

• Balance heart health.
• Lower BMI and lessen fatigue. Also, residents have fewer chances of suffering from obesity and related conditions.
• Help with emotional balance and anxiety.
• Improve memory functions. The research found that subjects who took nature walks did better on memory tests.
• Lower depression. Residents show positive mood swings when exposed to nature.
• Reduce stress.
• Increase immunity.
