Life Coach. Coaching is utilized for individuals to create wellness lifestyles before and beyond retirement. Wellness is a choice you can choose in your life. It is not a destination but, rather, a journey. Coaching can begin before a crisis such as unemployment or the ‘empty nest syndrome’ occurs. Maybe you are experiencing a transitional period in your life, want to start a new career path, you are a baby boomer in the pre-retirement stage or you’ve retired and lack direction, and also moving into the age group most likely
at risk to develop a chronic disease. Life coaching can serve as your partner and explore the ways you can attain the life you desire during retirement.Read more

Reflexology. The National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine defines it as a practice in which pressure is applied to points on the foot and sometimes the hand with the intent to promote relaxation or healing in other parts of the body. It is a manipulative and body-based practice which focuses primarily on the structures and systems of the body (hands & feet), including the bones and joints, the soft tissues, and the circulatory and lymphatic systems. Reflexology shares with other manipulative, body-based practices some common characteristics, such as the principles that the human body is self-regulating and has the ability to heal itself and that the parts of the human body are interdependent. Treatment is tailored to the specific needs of each client.
