			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today, spas offer much more than just mud baths, massages and meditation classes. A center for healing and nourishing your mind, body and spirit, a good spa will offer a range of professionally administered treatments, classes and programs in a beautiful and serene atmosphere. However, spas can come in a variety of forms and so to ensure that you get the right treatments and service for you, it is a good idea to do a bit of research before you book. Have a look at the spa&#8217;s website, check to see if they have received any recommendations, or won any awards. Don&#8217;t be afraid to ask questions, professional spas will offer a professional service and so will be pleased to answer all your queries.</p>
<p>Many of the higher class hotels and resorts in Thailand will offer their guests (and sometimes non-residents) a range of spa services for fitness, health, pampering and pleasure. A hotel or resort spa is a great choice for families or for groups with mixed tastes. A hotel or resort spa is perfect for anyone wanting to experience a bit of pampering and relaxation whilst on vacation.</p>
<p>For those looking to totally immerse themselves in healthy living, a destination spa is the ideal choice. With an environment that is completely focused upon health and fitness, a destination spa offers the possibility of personal transformation. The residential fitness programs available will help you to lead a healthier lifestyle through a combination of spa treatments, exercise classes and healthy eating. Because of the complexity of the treatments many of the destination spas will require you to stay for a minimum of at least three nights.</p>

Obesity isn’t just an American problem. We often think that we are the sole carrier of the torch, but it’s a global problem. Mexico, Argentina, Egypt, and Greece are only a few countries that have overweight rates (a BMI greater than or equal to 25) nearing the 70 percent mark, according to the World Health Organization.</p>
<p>Japan isn’t just “the Land of the Rising Sun”… but health care costs as well. The country is taking extreme measures to curtail expenses. The thing that is confusing is they are near the bottom of any list I see ranking overweight countries (by BMI). They are 163rd on the World Health Organization’s list of overweight (22 percent of the population).</p>
<p>Nevertheless, Japan’s health care costs have ballooned by 68 percent between 1989 and 2006, to $370 billion a year. Without doing a thorough analysis of everything that may be causing this increase in cost, maybe 1 in 5 people being overweight is enough for government officials to take action.</p>

Combining modern medicine with traditional Thai medicine, the Thai Medical Spa at Nakornthon Hospital applies a holistic and naturopathic approach to health and rejuvenation. The Spa’s medical team oversees programs for dermatology and laser skin treatment, orthopaedics, endocrinology, grastrology, obstetrics-gynecology, and nutrition. Modern medical techniques are combined with Thai herbals, massage, aromatherapy and meditation in a luxurious medical spa setting.</p>
<p>Thai Medical Spa publishes a price list for their spa services and their prices are similar to comparable services elsewhere in Bangkok, meaning they are a bargain. The list of services is extensive – a few samples include:<br />
Service 	Duration 	Baht (USD)<br />
Siam Herbal Facial 	60 	1,100 ($30)<br />
Thai Herbal Compress Massage 	90 	550 ($16)<br />
Dead Sea Salt Scrub 	50 	1,800 ($47)<br />
Thai Herbal Body Wrap 	50 	1,400 ($37)</p>
<p>There are also spa packages available that combine a series of treatments and range in price from 3,000 baht ($79) to 8,600 baht ($226). A published price list for medical treatments is unavailable but again you should expect excellent value.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.healthdirectoryasia.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/tea.jpg"><img src="http://www.healthdirectoryasia.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/tea-300x263.jpg" alt="" title="tea" width="200" height="200" class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-73" /></a><br />
In Japan, food is judged on its health properties, real or imagined, and fads of such foods are fed by media frenzy. It is only a short time ago that all Japanese were eating blueberries for better eyesight and natto to slim down. Drinks, especially of the sort sold in 350 or 500 cc pet bottles in convenience stores, do not fare differently. Many teas make claims about bringing down the level of body sugars or helping you get slimmer&#8230;</p>
<p>Contrary to the US, Japan&#8217;s $48-billion-a-year soft-drink industry consists for a large part of sugarless teas (with ot without health claims) rather than of sodas and other unhealthy products. This has been ascribed to the graying of the population, but I have my doubts: most buyers seem salarymen and young people, at least when you look at the convenience stores. There has always been a connection in Japan between food and health. What keeps amazing me is the sheer volume of this industry in Japan. Teas, juices, and soft drinks of all varieties take up a solid refrigerated wall in convenience stores. The number of different products is mind-boggling. As is the number of new drinks brought to market every year: 1,500! Many of these fail, of course, but the sheer logistical power of Japan&#8217;s companies is impressive, to say the least.</p>

Every Family should have a first aid kit in their home. But not every family’s kit should be the same, according</p>
<p>to the Singapore Health Promotion Board. The board has a few suggestions to get started.</p>
<p>* Thermometer – Either the traditional glass type or the new electronic kind is an important tool for monitoring fever.</p>
<p>* A small torch – This can be used to find small objects embedded in an ear or nostril, and to look at the back of the throat.</p>
<p>* Materials for treating small wounds – Cotton swabs, antiseptic solution, antibiotic ointment, gauze bandages and adhesive tape to secure it, and bandage scissors.</p>
<p>* Tweezers – For removing splinters and things lodged in the skin.</p>
<p>* Simple medications – Paracetamol, antacids, antihistamines for allergies and runny nose, cough medicine and diarrhea medicine.</p>
<p>After stocking your kit with the basics, customize it with special items your family might need. such as inhalers for asthma. Remember that first aid is simply the first application of care. Keep emergency phone numbers nearby to call in the professionals for serious problems.</p>

SHANGHAI &#8212; China pledged to expand medical insurance and build thousands of hospitals and clinics over three years, the first steps in a 10-year plan to repair an ailing health-care system that has fueled popular discontent.</p>
<p>On Tuesday, the State Council, China&#8217;s cabinet, offered details on the $120-billion-plus initial phase of the revamp, which it outlined in January. Among the plans: a construction surge that by 2011 will give every village a medical clinic and every county at least one hospital.</p>
<p>The government and ruling Communist Party are trumpeting the blueprint with a major public-relations push, signaling the political importance of rebuilding a social safety net that was largely dismantled during the country&#8217;s shift to a market economy over the past 30 years.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Medical tourism is not a new idea. Even in ancient times, people used to travel across the borders to obtain medical help. The Ancient Greeks used to travel to a region that was known as Epidauria, in the Saronic Gulf of the Mediterranean, to obtain healing from the God Asklepios.</p>
<p>In the modern times, medical tourism is gaining popularity because of the many benefits that are attached with it. The major purpose for medical tourism is to obtain high quality of medical assistance and help in a cost convenience manner. Medical tourism also offers a chance to combine the fun of travelling and meeting exotic people and visiting beautiful sites along with obtaining high quality medical treatment.</p>
<p>Many Asian and European countries are becoming hot-spot for medical tourism because of the cheaper, healthier and technologically advanced medical facilities offered by the medical experts and hospitals in these countries. Medical tourism is gaining a status of economically profitable industry in developing countries like India, China and Brazil. European countries like Hungary are developing their base in medical tourism industry while providing specific medical facilities related with cosmetic surgeries and dentistry.</p>
<p>People from western countries prefer to travel long distances to countries like India and China to obtain cheaper medical facilities in a much advanced and sincere manner. Furthermore, the total cost of travelling and medical treatment often comes out to be much lesser than the cost of similar medical treatments in native countries. Some people who suffer from serious diseases like heart, liver or kidney failure prefer to tour India to obtain a replaceable human organ so that they may survive.</p>
<p>Thus, medical tourism do not only offer cheaper and technologically advanced medical facilities, but also works as a great and sure way to save many lives while it is certainly a great way to increase international economic activities along with allowing patients to obtain cheaper medical care.</p>
