If you choose to be responsible for your health, and you respect your body in the same way you respect other aspects of your life, you can be in a powerful position to affect your lifespan and quality of life. Through the transformation of society in Ireland we are now experiencing levels of illness that were here to fore either unrecognised or unrecorded or maybe even unseen. The percentage of children being asthmatic, allergic or attentively deficit is growing dramatically.

Irish males are the highest risk group of death from heart disease in Europe. Irish adults are harming themselves through all sorts of excessive behaviours from drink, drugs, road rage, gambling, workaholism, even suicide.

More and more women are working harder than ever and their health is being corroded away and levels of cancer and associated health problems are on the increase . The stresses of life because of all we are trying to manage Are killing us, literally!!. To date it has been traditional to attempt to blot out this real threat to our sanity by alcohol or partying . The idea of prevention being better than cure was only on a wish list and rarely acted upon. Partly due to a lack of information or public recognition of the real need and support for change in attitude. Well now we are seeing the public awareness changing.

Invest in your health not your sickness. It is amazing that we rarely allow ourselves to be cared for until we are really ill. Many a man has embraced new health awareness only after the heart attack!! .At the clinic we are preventing those disasters by managing , informing and teaching people user friendly strategies of health that gives back the vitality we view so romantically .You don't have to wish "If only I was 10 yrs younger", you can retrieve that feeling and maintain it.

You can re establish how to manage the stress levels you are under and get your health back .You can have the energy for life as well as work.

I have seen too many people become embarrassed when they realise that they are a victim of their social position. I have seen people become gravely ill BECAUSE of their social position, and astonishingly I have seen people shunned by their immediate social group because they choose to change their health consuming habits of recreation. We are the victims of an ever accelerating demanding lifestyle.

Well its time to call a truce and manifest some moderation so that we can live long enough healthily, to enjoy the fruits of our labours. There's no tow bar on a hearse.

Reckless overstrain can be the habitual downfall of us all where as a happy healthy heart, creates a better outlook and a more relaxed consistent feeling.
