Publisher's Synopsis
As you get older, you are very likely to notice more than a few things that will change about your mind and body - you may witness aches and pains, a change in thought patterns, mood swings and even balance and posture. So many people accept these changes as an inevitability - but what if we were able to learn how to age 'well', in an effort to minimise the risk of pains, sprains and even falls in our later lives? Sarah Nelson, a New Zealand chiropractor with over twenty years' experience in treating patients in the private sector, offers a wealth of exercises and routines that she states will help to offset physical impairment, cognitive difficulties and may even slow the risk of dementia occurring - by looking in detail at how our brains change as we age, and how aerobic and muscle exercises target the various areas which are at high risk as we grow older, How To Age Well is less a self-help book and more a suggestions manual to help ease worry and pain as the years go by. How To Age Well is full of tried and tested techniques and tips authored by a medical professional, with the assurance that anyone can beat back the ravages of old age if they open their mind to new possibilities! For anyone concerned or worried about getting older and who may be keen to look for preventions as opposed to cures, How To Age Well will help provide inspiration and reassurance to men and women who wish to live long, and live healthily.
