                Welcome To The Kirby Health & Wellness Blog

                October 20, 2016

                Welcome and thanks for stopping by the Kirby health and wellness blog. We want to provide you with as many tools as we can to empower you to lead a healthier, more active lifestyle and to begin to make positive behavioral and lifestyle modifications to improve your overall quality of life. Health and Wellness is the new catchphrase in the healthcare community, especially for healthcare workers. I guess employers are getting tired of providing sick care for their staff too! Let’s reevaluate what true health and wellness is. It’s not just a program or a quick fix…

                We’re here to take away the myth that there is a quick fix to a healthy lifestyle. There is no quick fix, just a choice – daily, weekly, monthly, yearly. No matter the severity, a choice has to be made by you – even if it’s a small one. A lot of small choices lead to fixing a big problem. Positive choice can lead to big things in your life. We are looking forward to helping you make those impactful choices.
