Abstract

Health is one of the basic human needs. Without health, doing many things will be either very difficult or impossible for human. This is an obvious issue that does not need any further argument to be proved and human experience during the history confirms this. On the other hand, the state of health can have strengths and weaknesses and any human being can enjoy a level of health (low or high) depending on his/her conditions. Basically, when we talk about promotion of health, we mean an attempt to increase individual and social health. Experts believe health has different dimensions including physical, mental, social, and spiritual (1) though the dimensions of health are not limited to this classification and may also have other dimensions.
