The Wellness Center, located in the Pat Malley Fitness and Recreation Center, is a health and wellness education and resource center on campus available to all Santa Clara University students. The Wellness Center promotes healthy lifestyle choices, encourages a holistic philosophy and balance to life, and combines a pro-active, positive approach to healthy living, emphasizing the whole person. We recognize that good health is more than the absence of illness, but rather a robust state of well-being that acknowledges the importance and inseparability of the mind-body relationship.
