My Healthy Life Magazine

Welcome to My Healthy Life, Mission Health’s new quarterly publication. We’re very pleased to bring you this new magazine, part of our effort to better serve you and provide you with even more information to help you on your path to a healthy lifestyle. Inside, you’ll find the latest news about what’s going on at Mission Health and articles about some of the services we offer. In this issue, you’ll find ways to avoid winter weight gain; tips to understand the basics of sprains, strains and breaks; advice for pelvic support problems; and how deep brain stimulation gave a local man his life back. In every issue, you’ll find departments such as Ask the Doctor, where our physicians provide answers to some of your health questions; there will be recipes that make healthy eating a lot tastier; and you’ll meet our health system’s new providers. There’s also a calendar of events to keep you up-to-date on the support groups, information sessions and classes offered on all of our campuses. At Mission Health, our mission is to improve the health of the people of western NC and the surrounding region. We hope that with My Healthy Life, we can encourage you to take first steps toward a better life and continue on your journey to wellness.
