Common Misconceptions:

General Wellness Care for Different Life Stages:

  • Children : Immunizations help protect against various diseases, while regular pediatric visits help track healthy growth and development. Building good nutrition habits early creates a strong foundation for lifelong wellness.
  • Adults : This is your time to be proactive with screenings—monitoring heart health, cancer risks, and emotional well-being. Maintaining healthy habits through good nutrition, regular movement, and stress management can prevent many future health concerns.
  • Older Adults : As we age, general wellness care often focuses on managing chronic conditions, supporting bone health to prevent fractures, and implementing fall prevention strategies. Keeping our minds sharp and maintaining cognitive health also become important areas of attention.
