Study Notes

Illness-Wellness Continuum

Illustrates the full spectrum of health from illness to wellness.
Individuals can progress towards higher levels of wellness beyond a neutral point.

Movement on the Continuum

Moving left from center indicates a decline in health, showing progressively worse conditions.
Moving right indicates improvement, representing increasing levels of health and well-being.
Treatment methods (e.g., drugs, surgery, psychotherapy) can bring individuals up to the neutral point by alleviating symptoms but are not designed to move beyond that.

Illness End

Represents the extreme left of the continuum.
Characterized by disease and diagnosis.

Wellness End

Represents the extreme right of the continuum.
Defined by optimal health and well-being.

Good Health

Absence of signs or symptoms of disease.
Does not imply a complete lack of disease; a diagnosis may not yet detect the illness.
