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. CLICK HERE FOR HANSON TOUR
  

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.
 

PURE - A WELLNESS MAGAZINE

Dr. Allan Price, B.Sc., ND, owner of the Pure Wellness Group in Sudbury, and
Robert Kirwan, M.A.(Ed), OCT, owner of The Greater Sudbury Learning Clinic.

Kirwan, the Managing Director of the Sudbury Wellness Group will be using an education-based communication model consisting of video recorded mini-lessons conducted by individual professionals, businesses and institutions providing health and wellness goods and services to residents of Greater Sudbury.
