Wellness Centers / Medically-Based vs. Fitness-Based :
40 pages in length. The writer discusses the fact that within the
world of physical and mental wellness, there are two very
different approaches to the same goal: medical and fitness. The
two vastly diverse programs offered at wellness centers around
the world provide similar benefits; however, it is the road taken
to achieve these benefits that greatly differ. Medically-based
wellness centers are geared more toward the traditional,
pharmaceutical therapy that has sustained throughout the
centuries. Fitness-based wellness centers, on the other hand,
utilize one's inherent physical abilities, coupled with nutrition,
relaxation and exercise, to aid in the body's recuperation.
Granted, both entities have their specific place within the
interworkings of overall wellness, yet their diversity maintains
them as separate practices. Current trends, however, are
showing a voluntary merging of the two applications to work
toward a comprehensive approach to health care. Bibliography

Healing Through Art : The western medical
establishment has
come to recognize the value of dance, music, literature, painting
and drama in preventing and treating illness. Techniques such as
guided imagery, dance, art therapy and music have become the
tools of health care professionals in all areas. These techniques
have much in common with the Chinese practices of Qigong,
yoga and acupressure. Eastern methods often integrate
contemporary medical practices with ancient forms of healing.
The western medical establishment is learning to give the
Chinese practices the credit they deserve for the benefits they
are able to bring to patients. This 6 page paper examines the use
of both Eastern and Western therapies with a foundation of
dance or music. Bibliography lists 15 sources. Ewheal.wps
