Editor's
Notes from Robert Kirwan...
We will be devoting this entire section as a guide to the
professionals and business owners who provide services and products
that focus on the area health and wellness. Valley East is known as
a place where people place a high priority on quality of life, and
there are a number of goods and service providers who are devoted to
helping individuals maximize their health and wellness. We are also
pleased to announce that our health and wellness goods and service
providers will be part of a Paridigm Shift in Health Care.

GREATER SUDBURY’S HEALTH & WELLNESS CENTRE
www.sudburywellnessgroup.ca
The Sudbury Wellness Group is a new initiative created for professionals,
business owners and institutions that are interested in
promoting an education-based, video-enhanced approach to
health and wellness. Our mission is to help people of all ages
overcome the problems that are preventing them from achieving
optimum health and wellness in all areas of their life.
We are
especially interested in providing parents and teachers with
the information they need to help the children in their care
maximize their potential in school and to experience life to
the fullest.

A VIRTUAL HEALTH AND WELLNESS GUIDE
In order to accomplish our mission, we are building a virtual
health and wellness Guide which can be accessed by members
of the general public. This information will be available free
of charge in PDF format and can be accessed without passwords or any
membership obligations.
You will be able to select from an ever-expanding list of
virtual educational video presentations which are being continuously
produced by our members.
The Health and Wellness Guide will include a virtual, personally guided video
tour of the clinic, office or facility. It will be as if you
are magically transported directly to the office or clinic or
retail outlet where you can see exactly how the facility is
set up.
Dr. Douglas Hanson recently
conducted a tour of his dental practice which demonstrates
what we intend to provide for each of our participating
members.

A VIRTUAL
TEACHING INSTITUTION
We are basically creating a virtual teaching “academy” where
the community is the classroom and the people living in the
Greater Sudbury Area are our students.
We will be encouraging classroom teachers at all levels of
education, including post-secondary, to use our directory as a
teaching resource to enhance their curriculum.
We will be encouraging parents to visit the Guide often to
find out information that will prove invaluable for their
children and the rest of the family. We will be updating the
Guide continuously.
We will encourage institutional leaders to use the Guide to improve the level of awareness of their members and
associates about the resources that we are making available.
We will also use the Guide to introduce the community to
new health and wellness professionals and business owners who
chosen to work in the Greater Sudbury Area.

WE ARE IN
THE MIDDLE OF A PARADIGM SHIFT |
|
The
Sudbury Wellness Group Health & Wellness Guide recognizes
that we are in the midst of a paradigm shift from paternalism
or "doctor knows best" to the idea that people today recognize
the limitations of the prevailing medical and institutional
systems and are in hot pursuit of other avenues for effective
treatment of chronic degenerative disease and all other
elements that are preventing one from achieving optimum health
and wellness in all areas of one’s life. Our Guide will
offer information about a wide range of goods and services
which will help people overcome their personal challenges and
problems, but our primary objective with the Sudbury Wellness
Group is to provide people with the education and awareness
they need to make wise choices.
