Discover YOUR Options for Holistic Wellness!
CHEO of Greater Knoxville Area
Acknowledges the inseparability of mind, body & spirit as essential in achieving and maintaining optimal wellness, and in the innate potential of each individual.
We encourage everyone to become informed & participating partners with their health care providers in all aspects of their wellness.
We respect cultural, religious & spiritual diversity and value all individuals and their unique journey to wholeness.
We trust in the innate potential of the body to heal & it is our intent to work in harmony with this timeless & universal knowledge.
Scientific research and Quantum Physics have demonstrated that consciousness and focused intention have measurable effects on matter, energy & living systems validating may holistic practices previously considered mystical or paranormal.
Holistic Wellness encompasses six interdependent aspects of an individual’s existence: Physical, mental, emotional, social, spiritual & environmental. An imbalance in even one aspect will affect the balance and function of all other aspects.
