... Currently, studies in almost every medical field have helped to educate the public and revolutionize the future of health sciences. Promising research in natural medicine, prosthetics, nanotechnology and genetics is challenging the way that our society views and incorporates health unto our everyday lives. ... However, monitoring and development of emotional and mental health is becoming more of a challenge…the present era is one of sweeping change and increasing populations. ... As a result, many researchers are developing ways in which to incorporate physical and mental health coupled with relaxation into our daily lives. Studies are beginning to show that holistic methods of health care such as music therapy, aromatherapy, acupuncture, sensory deprivation and herbal medicine are effective. It is very likely that natural time tested methods of relaxation and mental health will develop along side the more technologically derived medical fields. ... It is quite possible that future developments may introduce the use of various senses and even direct connection to the brain itself creating an almost lifelike limb. Android technology, such as that used in "smart" limbs, could likely revolutionize health by using mechanical means to solve problems such as blindness, computer generated senses and coexistence of a natural and artificial nervous system will likely be the first of many steps before android technology becomes a reality. ...
On the other hand genetic engineering can be one of the most potentially dangerous aspects of the new movements and developments in health. ... Health in 21st century society has the potential to be a dove or a knife, hope or Holocaust, life or death.
