Our Mission

 

TRIAD OF HEALTH

 

The foundation of my practice is based on a Holistic approach of an individual person. Everthing is interdependent in our body, so I would like to treat the whole person, not just the symptoms of my patient. So, my point of view is based on the concept of the "Triad of Wellness", where Wellbeing means a balance.

 

The Triad is shown as an equilateral triangle:

 

1. First side is PHYSICAL HEALTH:  exercise, nutrition, sleep, alcohol & drugs, and weight

2. Second side is MENTAL HEALTH: learning, stress management, and mental illnesses or disorders.

3. Third side is SOCIAL HEALTH: public health, family relationships, and peer relationships.

 

Disbalance on one side can often cause effects on the other two sides as they are all connected.

 

Example

 

The foods we eat, what and how much we drink, the air we breathe, and the supplements we take or don’t take are all examples of the Chemical aspect of our health. Did you know that if you are not eating a diet rich in Magnesium, for example, your muscles will be tired and achy, and they will not recover from exercise well? This can then affect your joints, and therefore your structure. Lack of magnesium also inhibits calcium from being properly utilized in your bones. Lack of magnesium can also cause symptoms of anxiety, tension, and an inability to concentrate, thereby affecting the Mental/Emotional aspect of the triad.

 

 

So…what now?

Are your health problems due to structural, chemical, or mental imbalances? With most people, their problems are caused by a combination of at least two or more triggers. For example, are your headaches due to your poor diet, your automobile accident that happened six years ago, or the emotional stress you feel at home? Or are they caused by a combination of all three stressors?

In a holistic setting, there is a strong emphasis on examining all three sides of the triad of health and directing therapeutic efforts toward the basic underlying cause of a problem. Often a health problem starts on one side of the triad and eventually involves all three aspects. It is important to recognize that any one side of the triad can affect the other sides, both as causative factors of health problems and as therapeutic approaches.

The key is to determine which factor is primary!

Founder & CEO

Many could think why the website been named KANNAN. The name been chosen on the memory of my father in law, who always been supportive in process of my career still would wish me success in things I do from heaven. One of the most important and inspirational person in my LIFE.

After my graduation March 2014 worked in few hospital and institutions as consultant physiotherapist until starting my own clinic, KANNAN PHYSIOTHERAPY CLINIC in my native The Nilgiris, Tamilnadu. After covid, as I couldn't continue my offline practice while thinking what to do next and after few research, came up with an idea of taking my practice on digital platform completely online, where I can connect to more people helping them to get rid of their pain at their convenience time and place without stepping out of their place.
