Prevent ageing

Dr Vishwas Chhabria

Ageing is the process of growing older, or a progressive deterioration of bodily functions with a change in physical appearance over a period of time.

But one must also remember that human bodies have a unique ability to renew or regenerate at the cellular level.

Pain in the neck

Dr Vishwas Chhabra

The neck is the most flexible part of the body.

It is also the most common area to experience pain. One of three people suffers from neck pain.

People develop neck disorders because of injuries due to accidents, recurrent minor traumas, bad posture, over-exertion or diseases.

Care for your eyes

Dr Vishwas Chhabra

Human eyes need care. With age, the muscles around the eyes become rigid and lose their elasticity. Yoga can help tired eyes.

Exercise your eyes

Blink your eyes: While keeping them closed, roll the eyeballs in clockwise and anti-clockwise direction. Take a deep breath. Gradually open your eyes while releasing your breath. This lasts for a minute. Repeat three times
