One philosophy that -18C (read as minus 18 degrees) stands by is to merge palette-teasing frozen yogurt that is made of the finest ingredients together with an assortment of toppings to bring brand new excitements to their customers.
With that, -18C is going to take this experience like no other to a whole new level by targeting to the young audience and to the increasingly health conscious population in Singapore, where studies have shown that yogurt helps improve digestive health and a stronger immune system.
Dedicated to the vision, customers can be treated to unique concocted flavours as well as classic favorites; all at a reasonable price.
Quality and freshness is guaranteed with -18C as the ingredients will be the finest selected from Europe and Australia. With that it also promises that 100% natural ingredients will be used (No Gluten, No Artificial Sweeteners, No Artificial Flavouring, No Preservatives).
The process of freezing the yogurt does not kill off any significant amount of the cultures packed, so instead it goes into a dormant state. And when it is consumed (warm temperature within the body), these cultures then become active again to provide the consumer with all of the well-known health benefits.
The extensive menu will include more that 20 unique flavours together with classic favourites. In addition, over 20 toppings will be available for customers, of which, 80% of them will be daily-cut fresh fruits, not forgetting other assortments such as chocolates and nuts. Spin off products will include freshly squeezed fruit juices and yogurt drinks. This is to provide an alternative to customers who may not be too receptive to frozen yogurt.
This concept will identity itself with the 13-25 target audience age group, where they will most likely drawn to the branding of this shop that revolves around healthy living and pure unrefined pleasure. The interiors will be furnished with a modern and yet cozy décor. Counter servers with a friendly and bubbly charisma will be chosen, as it will liven up the atmosphere for customers.
-18C aims to make itself the healthy escapade, where entertainment can be healthy at an affordable price.

Eestablished in May 1989, it was with the ideology of providing a natural healing alternative and to promote good health through foot reflexology and back massage services.

Together, the words “WAN YANG” symbolizes a vision of abundant health, wellness and happiness for their customers.
Wan Yang’s signature foot reflexology service differentiates itself through the stronger strokes along the pressure/reflex points on the foot as compared to other reflexology establishments. The strong belief in the positive health effects of foot reflexology and the numerous testimonies from customers on its benefits motivated Wan Yang to establish itself with the core values of integrity, reliability and accessibility.
The core mission is to make a distinctive contribution in the life and health of all their customers and the public.
Wan Yang started out at Upper Serangoon Shopping Centre with a floor space of 300 square feet and only five full time employees in May 1989.

Vivafit, a market-leading women’s gym from Europe, is getting ready to open the doors of its first Singapore franchise in Tanjong Pagar Plaza on Monday. Having led over 40,000 women worldwide to lose weight, Vivafit is now set to help Singaporean women get fit and develop healthy habits in bite-size 30-minute express workouts.
Cecile Jamoulle-Ogren, General Manager and Master Franchisee, Vivafit Singapore said: “Like a lot of women out there, I have always dreaded going to the gym and always had an excuse for not going. The Vivafit concept is amazing because it takes away all those excuses and makes it easy and enjoyable to get in shape. Our workouts are great for women of all ages and all fitness levels. They are also designed to fit with the busiest of schedules. We offer a complete fitness package in a friendly and welcoming environment.”
Vivafit offers members a fun and fast way to get fit and lose weight. At the core of the programme is a 30-mintue circuit made up of 20 stations combining hydraulic machines and recovery platforms designed to deliver a total body workout. Because the circuit is short, a workout is easy to squeeze in before work or on a lunch break. Gym-goers also can jump in at any time which means that members can set their own schedules. In addition to the circuit, Vivafit offers customized 35-minute group exercise classes designed by Les Mills, a world leader in group fitness programmes. The group exercise classes – Bodyvive, Bodybalance and Pilates – will feature new choreography, routines and music every three months to keep classes fresh.
Not only concerned with the effort members put in at the gym, Vivafit offers a total fitness solution. Members will have access to health tips, nutritional advice and recipes dished out by trainers in the gym and on the company’s Facebook page.
Vivafit memberships are designed to replace the need for a personal trainer at a fraction of the cost. On joining, members are asked to set fitness goals and Vivafit trainers work with each member to achieve these over time. Because membership is limited at each outlet, Viviafit is a place where everyone not only knows your name but also your fitness goals. Trainers at the gym know members so well that they are able to offer personal instruction and encouragement to everyone throughout circuit training and other classes.
To ensure that members stay on track towards achieving their health and fitness dreams, Vivafit will track each woman’s progress month on month. If that’s not enough to get you to the gym, you can expect to get a reminder call from your friendly Vivafit representative if you skip out on exercise for ten consecutive days.
More than just a gym, Vivafit will also encourage its members to get to know one another through social events outside of the outlets. Creating a community around each fitness club will mean that members are guaranteed to see friendly faces every time they head for a workout and they will encourage each other to work towards fitness goals. All of this is delivered in a safe and non-judgmental haven where you won’t find any men or even mirrors for that matter.
With plans to open 25 franchises in the next three years and 100 by 2020, Vivafit will soon be wherever you are whenever you need a fitness friend.

Residents in the fast-growing Sengkang and Punggol areas will be served by a new hospital and an additional polyclinic. Opening in 2020, the Sengkang hospital - which will likely have between 500 and 600 beds - will be the third new hospital to be up-and-running in a decade, following the opening of Khoo Teck Puat Hospital last year and the scheduled opening of the Jurong Hospital in 2014.
Substantial investments in the healthcare infrastructure, including a S$50-million upgrade of polyclinics at Ang Mo Kio, Bedok, Geylang, Tampines and Yishun over the next five years have just been announced as well. A new polyclinic will also be built in Punggol.
SingHealth has been tasked with assembling a "young outstanding team" to take charge of the project and will "challenge them" to build a better hospital than Khoo Teck Puat Hospital and the one in Jurong, "measured from the patients' point of view". The new hospital will be located beside Cheng Lim LRT Station and within walking distance of Sengkang MRT Station.
The upgraded polyclinics are now paperless and have multi-disciplinary teams. They are also piloting tele-ophthalmology for patients with eye disease, helping to cut unnecessary referrals to a hospital ophthalmologist. The 700-bed Jurong general hospital will be renamed the Ng Teng Fong Hospital, after the family of the late property mogul and founding chairman of Far East Organization donated S$125 million to the institution.

The Chinese New Year will bring about a new chapter for Dover Park Hospice when it expands its services and facilities at a cost of $2.5 million. The three-storey building at 10 Jalan Tan Tock Seng will have 10 more beds in four single rooms and three two-bed rooms, raising its bed capacity from the current 40.
Further expansion is not possible at the current site because of space constraints. The hospice is also hiring another six nurses to add to the current staff strength of 21 nurses, four doctors, a medical social worker, a counsellor, eight care employees and a part-time music therapist. Preparations for the new beds are underway, and the foreign nurses who occupied dormitories on the top floor are moving out.
The dormitory space will be turned into offices, which are now on the lower floors. The space on the lower floors will, in turn, be used for the new beds. A multi-purpose room and another one for prayers will also be refurbished to create more single rooms for patients. The walls will be repainted from the current white and orange to something more soothing. The hospice's expansion will be a small boost to the palliative care sector, which serves about 1,200 inpatients a year, according to the Health Ministry.
Dover Park Hospice opened in September 1995 with 40 beds. It has an annual operating cost of $4 million, of which 35 per cent is paid for by government subsidies, half by fund-raising events and donations and 15 per cent from patients' fees. Patients pay $210 per day, of which $160 can be drawn from Medisave. About a third of the patients are fully subsidised.
In our world of greasy burgers, instant noodles and quick-fix TV dinners, the vitamins we need have been replaced by artificial flavouring, processed fat and bad carbohydrates. A great number of people even starve themselves in a bid to stay thin, depriving their bodies of essential nutrients.

Jurong General Hospital is part of Jurong Health Services. Slated to open in 2014, the 700-bed acute hospital will be twinned with a 280-bed community hospital to provide patients with holistic and integrated care. Conveniently located within walking distance from the Jurong East MRT and Jurong East Bus Interchange, Jurong General Hospital will be collaborating closely with other healthcare partners including primary care providers such as General Practitioners and polyclinics, hospitals, long term care providers and voluntary welfare organisations.
The Hospital Planning Department: Hospital Planning is a unique department set up specifically to oversee and coordinate the design and construction of our new regional hospital, Jurong General Hospital, that caters to fast medicine. Working closely with the end users (doctors, nurses, allied health and administrators from the hospital), Hospital Planning will be the key driver working in close collaboration with the Architects and Medical Planners to plan and design our new hospital building.
A design competition held in mid 2009 saw many exciting entries from local and international architects. The competition was a platform to select the best building consultant/architect as the main Consultant and we were on the lookout for an organisation which understands the complexity of a healthcare building with sensitivity to the needs of a patient. CPG Consultants, HOK (USA) and Studio 505 (Australia) submitted the winning design, which incorporated features like:
A window for every patient - to improve lighting, ventilation and external views for the patient.
Healing environment - to incorporate natural and outdoor views through the window next to every bed. This would create a calming and restful environment which would help in the healing process of the patient.
Sense of connection with the Community - integrated community space within the hospital with the facilities and parks nearby.
They have since conducted many workshops with the architects to revise the design specifications as well as the general massing of the buildings. In the planning of these features the vision of the hospital remains as the focal point:
The Patient is their focus - Patients will be treated with respect, dignity and compassion. We will treat our staff likewise so that they can be expected to extend the same care towards our patients. Patient care will be integrated and holistic - The whole continuum of patient care will be coordinated and integrated, within the hospital and across the healthcare continuum (with Academic Medical Clusters, other hospitals and across step-down and primary care settings). Their focus would be on the "individual" within the patient; not just body parts or symptoms.
The hospital as a conducive innovation and research milieu - Staff are engaged in inquiry and research to continuously enhance medical care and patient experience. They will partner others to bring experimental clinical innovations for patient's benefits. A rich training ground for the next generation of healthcare providers. Ensure a systematic and integrated curriculum for medical and healthcare professionals.
A commitment to build a healthcare institution for generations to come.
dapao celebrates the flavours of Singapore and southeast Asia, and cooks from scratch from local ingredients, innovating traditional recipes to be healthier and easier to takeaway. dapao is here because corporate life got boring and it’s so much more fun to be in the kitchen, dreaming up new recipes! At dapao, they make fresh food from scratch, without added preservatives or chemicals. Their wrap and salad recipes are mainly based on traditional southeast Asian cuisines, so they’re flavourful, but they’ve made slight tweaks to make things just a bit healthier.
It's important to them to be kinder to the planet than normal takeaway restaurants - that makes lunch even more guilt-free!
How are they doing that? Biodegradable cutlery and wrap papers that are compostable, minimising food waste, growing a herb garden, buying most ingredients from a locavore foodshed of 300kms, a kitchen free of toxic chemical cleaners and a shop offering reusable lunch bags.
They're encouraging you to bring your own coffee cup. They'll give you coffee grounds for your garden and plant cuttings from theirs. In the longer term, their sustainability policy will include initiatives such as composting in the kitchen, organic ingredients and plastic-free packaging. They're always looking for ideas, so please let them know if you have any thoughts!
Food is energy-giving. Good, fresh food that is. dapao makes simple, healthy food with local flavours that will give you the energy to attack your afternoon! (and 'healthy' doesn't mean a wimpy salad for lunch that leaves you hungry!)
