About this service
At Siksika Health Services, our mental health and physical recreation programs work closely together to maximize the benefits for Siksika Nation members. Over time, science has helped people better understand the chemicals in our brain, and how balance of these chemicals can be achieved. Each day, peoples brains release chemicals known as dopamine and endorphins, which are neurotransmitters that help control the brains reward and pleasure centers. Mental Health issues and substance abuse disrupts the happiness-inducing chemicals such as dopamine. Physical activity and good nutrition help restore these chemicals, and boost the presence of these chemicals, to increase positive mood and motivation overall. Some research has proven that exercise and physical activity, such as boxing, increases the production of endorphins the neurotransmitters that create feel-good thoughts.
