Health-Check


The VIVA health check is a great start into a healthier future

What is health? There are many possible definitions, and everyone has their own perception of what it means to be healthy. Perhaps the most basic definition of health is the absence of disease.

Nature intends us to be healthy. Our body's processes are a series of checks and balances to keep us alive and well - cell regeneration and protein repair occur on a daily basis while we sleep, and our hormones constantly regulate our stress levels to avoid overload. It's only when these regulatory mechanisms no longer function or are impaired that we become ill. However, it can take a long time for us to become truly ill, and quite often we are simply not as healthy and vibrant as we could be. This is "disrupted health" as opposed to optimum health.

Dr. Mayr was one of the first to promote the concept of "salutogenesis" - the positive effort to maintain health. Our health is closely linked to lifestyle, stress and genetic factors.

By making small but significant changes to our daily habits we can make a huge difference to our health.

Here at the Viva Centre we use innovative methods to help us identify the factors that are currently undermining your health - we call this "functional diagnostics"

In addition to the well-established diagnostic tests of Dr. Mayr and Applied Kinesiology, we have added a series of new tests to assess individual regulatory capacity. With the VIVA health check (basic or superior), the strengths and weaknesses of each individual can easily be identified and specific risk factors addressed.Positive lifestyle changes can then help to maximize your health potential now and in the future.
