reEnvision Health
Building a Groundbreaking New Health System for NZAnna is the co-founder of reEnvision Health, a visionary new project that aims to establish a groundbreaking new holistic health system for New Zealand that enables lifelong wellbeing for all.
As the pandemic unfolded, Anna began to have grave concerns about many aspects of the local and international pandemic response, principally because public health policy was inconsistent with basic medical ethics, the emerging science and the body of scientific knowledge previously established over decades on how best to respond to a pandemic. As her concern and her understanding of the complexity of the problem grew, it became clear to Anna and reEnvision Health’s rapidly expanding group of Christchurch-based practitioners, that our current health system is irreparably broken. Controlled by vested interests, it is a system that profits from, maintains and reacts to sickness. It is a system that is swamped by the burden of chronic ill-health it has helped to create and has no incentive to address. It is time for a wholly new approach that works proactively and preventively on behalf of the people, truly building and maintaining health – a system that seamlessly blends the best of existing ‘allopathic’ approaches with cutting edge new therapies and timeless wisdom. It will be a system that educates and empowers all our citizens on the journey to becoming the architects of their own health. It is the genesis of this new health system that Anna will talk about.
