About Parks Health

At Parks Health, I get it.

I’m not some celebrity turned fitness influencer who suggests a bunch of stuff for people to do that 95% of the population can’t do, can’t afford, or don’t have access to.

I’m about real world solutions for real world people.

Growing up, I didn’t know what to eat or what to do to be healthy, either. It’s taken me decades of my own experiences, education, and working with people to figure that stuff out. And, even then, I’m constantly learning and evolving to make sure I’m meeting each person I work with where they are in the most efficient ways possible.

So, if you’ve been trying to improve your health, or want your workplace to be more efficient and less stressful, or you’re just trying to figure out your best way forward, but haven’t had any luck with all those programs out there that clearly weren’t designed with you in mind, let me help.

Who Will I Work With?

Hi, my name is Adam Parks.

I have been educating and consulting people for over a decade in the heart of Appalachia. And whether you’re from this area or not, I can promise you that experience alone will be invaluable to me helping you as well.

I can say that because this job is about me helping people address limitations, whether that be as an individual or as a business, and there are very few places where people have had more limitations and less access to the resources they need to address those limitations than in Appalachia.

As such, there is very little I haven’t already navigated in this profession, and I typically know multiple ways to help someone or their business immediately make improvements so they don’t have to wait around for results.
