Free Integrative Health Lecture Series Continues at Windham Hospital
WILLIMANTIC, CT – September 16, 2009 – The Integrative Health Steering Committee at Windham Hospital hosts “For the Health of It,” a Wednesday evening lecture series, each month. The next event, slated for September 30th, is entitled Health and Disease: A Holistic Approach Using Homeopathy and Nutrition, and is presented by William Shevin, MD.
Dr. Shevin maintains a homeopathic medical practice in Woodstock, Connecticut. He comments that he has “devoted more than 35 years to the study of homeopathy,” and that he is “convinced that people should listen carefully to the messages their bodies convey. When we are tuned into our body’s needs, and then use that knowledge in conjunction with tailored and specific medical care—we are on the road to truly great health.” He adds, “of course, living in a healthful way becomes self-sustaining and has positive effects on our families, our friends, and our communities.”
During the presentation, Dr. Shevin will offer some insights into creating our own better health by using personal coping strategies and techniques, and will highlight some ways of collaborating with our caregivers to attain optimum health. A question and answer period will follow the presentation.
The Lecture Series is a service of the Integrative Health Service at Windham Hospital. Other lectures in the 2009 series will include Reflexology (October), and Living the Holidays with Meaning and Wellness (November).
In addition to the Lecture Series, Integrative Health Services offers therapeutic massage, Reiki, acupuncture, yoga, meditation, nutritional counseling, and the free Community Health Resource Room at Windham Hospital. Gift certificates for yoga, massage, Reiki, and acupuncture are available at the Hospital gift shop, and additional information is available on the Hospital website at www.windhamhospital.org.
The educational programs presented by Integrative Health Services are provided as a community service, and are not necessarily endorsements of a particular health regimen or practitioner by Windham Hospital.
