THE 5 PILLARS OF HEALTH & WELLNESS

Dr. Cas has spent his career developing, refining and implementing his 5 Pillars of Health and Wellness© to help guide his patients to optimal living. Dr. Cas’ 5 Pillars focus on:

Medical Wellness

Dr. Cas believes that medical fitness is a critical part of overall well-being. Managing medical conditions – or preventing them in the first place – helps patients maximize their quality of life.

Physical Wellness

Significant amounts of time and resources are wasted on preventable disorders that can be managed or avoided with simple diet and exercise changes. This is why physical wellness is one of Dr. Cas’ important pillars to health.

Mental Wellness

Not everyone needs treatment for depression or other mental illnesses, but Dr. Cas believes it is important to have techniques and a support system in place to handle everyday stressors that can affect mental well-being.

Spiritual Wellness

When it comes to spiritual wellness, denomination isn’t what’s important. What is important is overall well-being, and how that is achieved and maintained, whether it is meditation, yoga, attending church or going on long walks.

Aesthetic Wellness

People don’t all look the same, but everyone wants to feel good about themselves. Studies demonstrate that when someone feels confident, they are more likely to engage with others, smile and laugh, which encourages the release of oxytocin, a hormone necessary for survival.
