Wellness
Acumeans, Inc. defines wellness as the dynamic interaction of psychological, spiritual, physical, occupational, and
social health. This definition is derived by a multidisciplinary model, the Wheel of Wellness.
The Wheel of Wellness
Many wellness models are derived from the medical model or illness-based models for treatment of disease. As a
result, many of the existing definitions of wellness are based in physical health professions. The Wheel of Wellness
is a model of holistic wellness based in counseling, which as a result, provides a basis for substantial counseling
interventions that can be utilized to address a number of difficulties individuals may experience throughout the
life span, including those experienced in the workplace.
In the workplace, employee assistance programs and wellness programs have been developed to improve employee
health and job satisfaction, thereby increasing productivity, and decreasing absenteeism. However, such programs
have focused primarily on physical wellness, thus largely ignoring the psychological aspects of wellness in the
workplace. Acumeans, Inc. utilizes the Wheel Model because it brings a multi-modal approach to achieving health in the
workplace.
Acumeans, Inc. provides wellness consults and workshops that help organizations incorporate this unique approach to
employee health.
