Health and wellness, which may be used interchangeably, and though related, they stand on their own merit. Health is defined by WHO (World Health Organisation) as:
* the absence of any disease or impairment.
* a state that allows the individuals to adequately cope with all demands of daily life (also implying the absence of disease and impairment.)
* a state of balance, an equilibrium that an individual has established within himself and between himself and his social and physical environment.
* a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.
The National Wellness Institute states that wellness is considered “an active process through which people become aware of, and make choices toward, a more successful existence.”
* Wellness is considered a conscious, self-directed and evolving process of achieving full potential.
* Wellness is multidimensional and holistic, encompassing lifestyle, mental and spiritual well-being, and the environment.
* Wellness is positive and affirming.
Salus Medical and Wellness Clinic's focuses on wellness through medical counselling, dietetics, nutrition, therapies, exercise, self-care products, medical examination
