    • Abstract:
      The purpose of this study was to describe the perceptions of wellness from adults with mobility impairments by using phenomenological-heuristic inquiry. The primary research question was, how do adults with mobility impairments perceive wellness? Eight participants were interviewed, and 6 core themes emerged: overcoming barriers, pain management, psychological wellness, physical activity and nutrition, social connectedness and family support, and spirituality. Implications for counselors and counselor educators and suggestions for future research are presented. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
