Wednesday, March 11, 2015 The Nugget Newspaper, Sisters, Oregon 13 Focus on health Spring was sprung early in Sisters Country. That means it’s the perfect time to start focusing on leading a more health- ful, well-balanced life. Time to off-load some stress, get outdoors, time to enjoy the beauties and challenges of the outdoor wonderland that is Sisters Country. It’s also an injury-prone season, since we all tend to want to do too much too soon, to tackle the yard work all at once or hit the trail for miles and miles. Whether you are looking to be more health-conscious and active, or trying to avoid or recover from the strains of being too active, you can find the services you need in Sisters. In addition to all its natural advan- tages, Sisters is home to service providers and health practitioners whose mission is to preserve and enhance your health and well-being. It is a remarkable blessing to be able to live in a relatively remote area with a healthy environment, yet have so many health resources available. Top-notch medical care is available right in town at local clinics, where the focus is not just on treating illness, but on promoting your well-being. And Sisters offers naturo- pathic options to help you find wellness. From hearing to eyecare to coping with diabetes, there are skilled profession- als who are expert in providing the high- est standards of care. And there are out- standing services to help our loved ones in their twilight years. For those of us who pursue an active lifestyle, there are folks who can get you outside and involved in exciting activi- ties — and those who can get you back in the saddle when you need to recover from hard work or injury. We live in healthful abundance. Make the most of it. Explore these pages for resources to help you make your life more healthful and fulfilling this year.
