Prevention, defined literally, means "to keep from happening or existing." While Western medicine often takes a reactive, symptom-based approach to healing, preventive health care encompasses a wide realm of measures designed to stop injury, illness or disease from occurring in the first place. Patients are usually aware of basic steps to stay healthy, such as drinking at least eight glasses of water a day, getting between seven and nine hours of sleep each night, and exercising on a regular basis. Yet "knowing" doesnŐt always translate into "doing," which can lead to negative impacts on the body.
