Providing care at any level should go beyond simply treating a persons ailment or condition. While the phrase health and wellness may lead some to focus on physical aspects, it really refers to the well-being of the whole person mind, body, and spirit. Wellness infers that a persons whole being is treated and cared for.In recent years, the holistic approach has become more popular. One of the reasons for the increasing popularity is that when used in conjunction with traditional western medicine, the holistic care approach can benefit individuals, provide a deeper level of healing, and improve their overall well-being.It is common to think that holistic care refers to alternative or complementary therapies such as aromatherapy or massage therapy, but that is only part of this person-centered care approach. The idea behind holistic care is that it treats the whole person, not just the condition and symptoms.Holistic care is a different way of thinking about and approaching care and wellness. A vital part is personalized education and involvement in the process. Without the power of positive thinking and learning about and following treatment remedies, holistic care is not as effective.Due to the nature of holistic care, it can promote healthier living habits. As a more natural approach that may include significant lifestyle changes and focus on healing the whole person, holistic care is a great way to refresh your lifestyle and get on a path that leads to improved health and wellness.It is important for each of us to get to know our minds, bodies, and spirits as well as what heals us and helps us to feel safe and at home. The holistic approach is important because it embodies and aligns with person-centered care and building community. We know it can be challenging to find balance and meaning in life.Editors Note: Hope Carwile is an Innovations Specialist for Vivage & WellAge Senior Living.

Read MoreDid you know that June is National Migraine Headache Awareness Month? As a migraine sufferer myself, I would like to point out that those of us with personal experience are AWARE every month! Growing up I remember getting very intense headaches/fevers. They were really stopping me from being a normal kid. I would have to lie in a dark room with an ice pack on my head and I would just cry from the pain. As I got older and migraine medicine became more common my doctor and I had a long discussion about my condition and I was referred to a neurologist. This was the beginning of my journey that would eventually lead me to the potential benefits of Botox for migraines.Figuring things out: appointments, migraine diary, and identifying triggersIf you have been down this road, then you know that these appointments are not growing on trees! After a three-month wait, I was finally in. (Side note, this was pre-COVID, Ive heard of people waiting 6 months or more now). My neurologist was the sweetest senior gentleman. He asked me to bring in my migraine diary, which was something I never heard of! I had to fill out which days I had a migraine and what my triggers were. While I certainly had migraine awareness, I had not yet developed my frequency and trigger awareness. The diary helped with that! I realized once I started tracking that my migraines were occurring almost every other day! Triggers ranged from the weather changing, to loud noises, to even lighting changes causing an attack.Discovering Botox for Migraines: My Journey to ReliefMy Neurologist at the time offered me different medications and for around three years I went through four different types of medicine. Then we tried Botox. The first time I laughed and made the joke Im only 23 I dont have any wrinkles, but my Doctor explained to me how Botox helps migraines and explained how it works.Botox is a toxin that works by blocking the neurotransmitters that tell your muscles to contract. When used in small doses, it can paralyze the muscles which contribute to or worsen migraine headaches. Your trained provider injects Botox at various locations in the scalp including the forehead, the sides, and the back of the head as well as in the neck and the trapezius muscles (back of the neck and shoulders). My dose was five units and it was covered by my insurance. So it was off the races and I got all the shots and drove home. My migraines went from every other day to once a month at max.Compared to my other medications I had tried, I didnt notice any side effects. I didnt have to remember to take a pill two times a day. I had to go in every 4-5 months for a quick check-up and get my shots. Life was made so much easier! I got my life back, I got time back with my daughter, and I didnt have to worry about missing out anymore.Ive been on Botox for almost three years and because of this treatment, I got my life back. And appointments are easier than ever with the providers at Spruce Health Group, there is no need to wait for months and months to see a Neurologist. I am able to enjoy time with my daughter. I enjoy my hobbies again, and Im much more effective in my work. I got my #HealthyLiving from Botox, and you can too!Contact Spruce Health Group to request an appointment today.
