Oahu Health and Vacation Guide

Oahu "The Gathering Place" mixes cultures and traditions to create its own style of health care. On Oahu one can select from a variety of health professionals offering allopathic, traditional or complementary health services from health practitioners trained in both Western and Eastern traditions. Residents from much of Polynesia, the Philippines, and parts of Asia, including Japan, come to Honolulu for continuing education and medical treatment, often provided in a native language.

Take a yoga class, join a paddling club, roller blade through the park, learn tai chi, walk through Waikiki, learn about Hawaiian traditional medicinal plants at a botanical garden. An extensive network of hiking trails, easy access to swimming and snorkeling, bike paths, beach parks complete with surf board rentals and life guards, healthy restaurants, canoe paddling clubs and health clubs make Honolulu an easy city to stay fit and trim with one of the highest longevity rates in the nation.

The UH John Burns Medical School is developing a Complementary and Alternative Medical (CAM) curriculum and building a new medical school in downtown Honolulu. There are also four Community Colleges offering technical health and nursing programs as well as Acupuncture and Chinese Medical colleges and several massage schools.

Historic China Town district is one place to find Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioners offering acupuncture treatments and chinese herbs.
