Dopamine(DA) is a neurotransmitter related with diseases, symptoms, and addiction. The impact of DA in the body is serious and should be talked about more. For instance, hyperactivity of DA can cause schizophrenia. If your brain doesn’t produce enough DA or is not sensitive enough to DA, it can cause Parkinson’s Disease, Restless Leg Syndrome, ADHD, sugar craving, depression, an inability to focus, low energy, low libido, brain fog, and aches/pains. Some people try to solve this deficiency problem with caffeine, but this creates a mineral imbalance that aggravates the symptoms. However, there are natural ways of promoting dopaminergic action in your brain without adverse effects.

Choosing Healthier Transportation
The world of cars is changing fast these days. We are seeing eco-friendlier cars that come with battery electric motor gas engines (hybrids) more frequently on the road every day. What people are starting to choose with increasing frequency are plug-in battery electric motor gas engines (plug-in hybrids) and fully electric motor cars that do not use any gasoline at all! Can you imagine never having to drive to a gas station for fuel again? There is a healthier choice for yourself, your family, and our environment. Toyota produces the majority of the hybrids on the road globally today to show a real commitment to everyone’s health.
Digestive Problems?
Treat the cause, not the symptoms. More than 20 million Canadians suffer from digestive disorders every year. Whether it’s heartburn, reflux, indigestion, abdominal pain, bloating, irritable bowel, or colitis, those suffering seldom find long-term solutions. Conventional medicines offer temporary relief, but rarely address the cause. If you do not find the cause, the symptoms will continue to worsen. One of the best ways to determine the cause of your condition is with nutritional testing. This non-invasive testing will let you know if you are lacking specific nutrients essential for proper digestion. If deficiencies are found, specific nutritional formulations can be given to address the cause and heal the area.
Asking WHY Does Not Matter
Why asking why does not matter
When something significant happens in our lives or in the lives of those we love, we tend to focus on why did this happened; why me and why now? It’s easy to dwell and obsess looking for the why, but it doesn’t really matter. It doesn’t change the outcome or what just happened. Instead it often keeps us stuck and wrapped in our heads not getting to the more helpful questions like: what can I learn from this, where am I getting stuck and what do I need? What is the gift behind this experience? How can I best be supported and what is in my power to change? What must I surrender and release? As long as we get to the root of what’s needed to shift, transition and move forward that is what’s most important. Once we’ve moved beyond and learned the lesson, then the why is sometimes revealed.

Benefits of Homeopathy
Health doesn’t have to be a compromise and chronic disease doesn’t have to be your life sentence.
Homeopathy offers a holistic and complementary treatment for both chronic and acute diseases. It individualizes patient care by focusing on how symptoms of disease manifest in you, and not on the disease itself. Using homeopathy, chronic disease is manageable in a gentle, permanent, and rapid manner.
After taking an in-depth look at your emotional, physical, and mental symptoms, your homeopath will create an individualized treatment plan. This is typically the prescription of a homeopathic remedy specific to your case, but may also include dietary and lifestyle changes.
Aging at Home
85% of seniors have done nothing to prepare their home for aging. It is important to be aware of the day-to-day tasks your loved one may face and assess the risks accordingly. This can be done by adapting their home to make sure they are safe on their own. Beneficial aids can help an older adult look after their home with dignity. These include chairlifts, ramps, rails, reaching tools, grabbers, and remote controls. These changes can also reduce stress for them. Minimizing risks and making a home safe is so important. Let’s support our loved ones in living healthy, independent, enjoyable lives.
Tinnitus
Described as ear or head noises, tinnitus can take the form of ringing, buzzing, hissing, or similar sounds, and it can be constant or intermittent. In some cases, tinnitus can result from medical conditions such as wax buildup or ear infection, which can be treated, often resulting in total relief of symptoms. In many cases, tinnitus is the first sign of hearing loss. The first step in managing any type of tinnitus is to undergo a complete hearing assessment by a hearing professional. If hearing loss is found and medical intervention is not the answer, your hearing health professional will go over additional treatment solutions with you, such as tinnitus maskers or hearing aids.
Winter is Coming!
Amputees can sometimes experience difficulties in icy conditions. With winter on the way, proper footwear is very important. Wear shoes that have good grip. If you do have a balance problem or are using an assistive device, have someone else clear your steps and sidewalk, and be sure to throw sand or salt down to decrease ice buildup. It’s a good idea to install rails next to steps to give you something secure to hold on to. Finally, have a cellphone or some type of device with you to call for help if you slip and fall.

Geriatric Massage helps relieve anxiety and depression in elderly clients. Prenatal Massage offers prenatal care and is based on individual needs. Cranial Sacral Therapy involves gentle techniques addressing the head, spinal column, and sacrum to help relive headaches, temporomandibular joint dysfunction, and back and neck pain.
