On-Campus Wellness

As a leading vital health sciences institution, Life University provides students, faculty and staff with ample opportunities and health services to support their well-being.

Clinical Care

All Life U community members have full, free access to the Campus Center for Health and Optimum Performance (CC-HOP), our student clinic. Here, you can receive care from advanced student chiropractic interns and the CC-HOP clinical staff. All Life U community members and their immediate families (spouses and children) may also utilize the integrated care services available at the public Center for Health and Optimal Performance (C-HOP), located at 1415 Barclay Circle on Life U’s campus. Most types of care – including the majority of chiropractic, nutrition counseling, functional rehabilitation and life coaching services available through C-HOP – are no or low-cost for the Life U community.

Campus Center for Health & Optimum Performance (CC-HOP)
Doctor of Chiropractic students begin their clinic experience at the CC-HOP, which is also known as the Student Clinic. Under faculty supervision, students adjust their peers, learn the basics of technique, become familiar with radiology and assessment, and hone their skills.

Fitness Center

Life University’s Fitness Center is open to all Life U students, faculty, staff and their immediate families at no cost, providing a diverse range of modern fitness equipment, group classes and personal training programs (all led by our own Life U student instructors). More information, including fitness class schedules and a list of available equipment, is available on the Fitness Center web page.

Active Campus

Life University is an active campus, featuring more than three miles of wooded walking/running trails; athletic fields; intercollegiate, club and intramural sports; and a lush, landscaped campus designed for walking and biking. For more information on Athletics at Life University and how to get involved, please visit the Athletics web page.

Eating Well

Socrates Café and the Commons Dining Hall are our two main eateries, conveniently located on opposite sides of campus (so you’re never too far from getting a nourishing bite to eat). Socrates is a sustainably-built, 250-seat facility that’s a great spot to eat, study or just socialize. There’s something for everyone on the affordable, healthy menu, and when possible, we always try to include locally sourced and/or organically produced options. The Commons Dining Hall is a classic, “all-you-can-eat style,” buffet-style eatery and gathering place for students, faculty and staff. It also features the Grab & Go Grill with menu items that can be made to order. The Commons Dining Hall is located in The Commons student housing facility.
