Features: In the 21st century, China will fully enter a well-off society. While creating and enjoying a prosperous life, health will undoubtedly become one of the most concerned hot topics. People eat grains and have seven emotions and six desires, and it is inevitable to suffer from various illnesses. It is impossible for anyone to never get sick in their lifetime, but the key is to minimize illness and recover quickly if they do get sick. This raises two important issues: "minimizing illness" requires strengthening disease prevention, while "recovering quickly" is the task of clinical treatment and rehabilitation medicine. The "Common Diseases Prevention, Treatment, and Family Rehabilitation" series published by Science and Technology Education Press is centered around this theme, with a focus on family rehabilitation. As the saying goes, "treating a disease is three parts, while nurturing it is seven parts," and here, "nurturing" is equivalent to "family rehabilitation." Generally speaking, during the acute phase of an illness, treatment is the primary focus, and the patient's treatment, diet, and rest must be carried out under the guidance of a doctor. However, family rehabilitation is different; at this stage, the condition has stabilized, and all indicators have returned to normal or are close to normal. To restore health, in addition to cooperating with medical treatment, reasonable dietary, psychological, and exercise adjustments and care are also necessary during this phase. Patients and their families must adopt a new concept of family rehabilitation, recognizing it as an essential stage in disease prevention and treatment, and valuing its role in recovery.
Diet is not only the material basis for maintaining life but also plays a crucial role in physical recovery through reasonable nutrition. Adjusting one's mindset is beneficial for improving the immune system and also helps build confidence in overcoming the disease. Exercise is not just an active form of rehabilitation; moderate exercise not only helps the sick body recover quickly but also strengthens the body. As for music therapy, regular routines, and other measures, they are both necessary and simple to implement.
The "Common Diseases Prevention, Treatment, and Family Rehabilitation" series invites medical experts from the clinical front to serve as chief editors for each volume. Using plain and accessible language, the series provides in-depth and easy-to-understand introductions to the causes, related knowledge, prevention, and treatment of each common disease, with a special focus on various family rehabilitation methods, such as psychological adjustment, exercise rehabilitation, music therapy, and essential home medication guidelines. It is suitable for patients and their families to read. The series is richly illustrated and features a fresh layout. We believe that the publication of this series will help all readers maintain their health!
