Feeling Sleepy During the Day?

Untreated obstructive sleep apnea is one of the leading causes of excessive daytime sleepiness. Obstructive sleep apnea is defined as episodes of apneas (not breathing) which last more than 10 seconds and that occur during sleep. These episodes may occur hundreds of times per night and can lead to fragmented sleep. During these events, the individual’s oxygen level can fall to dangerously low levels (hypoxemia) and may result in cardiac arrhythmias (irregular heartbeats), which can at times be fatal. Also, individuals with obstructive sleep apnea are far more prone to heart attacks and strokes.

JSJ for Your Animal Companion

Through Jin Shin Jyutsu (JSJ), our awareness is awakened to the fact that we are endowed with the ability to harmonize and balance ourselves in rhythm with the universe – physically, mentally and spiritually. Over the past decades, Adele Leas has pioneered this work and made it applicable for domesticated animals such as dogs, cats and horses. Under Adele’s instruction, Robin McKay of Energy Effects is currently training to become one of a few teachers in North America to offer the JSJ for Animal Companion Certification. With Robin, you can be assured your animal companion is in good hands.

Treating Varicose Veins

Varicose veins are usually due to improperly functioning valves within the veins. The veins typically appear prominent or look raised. The condition can cause swelling of the legs, ankles and feet. The skin may become discolored due to leakage of blood into the surrounding tissues, and ulcers may form on the skin. Your Podiatrist may advise use of regular compression stockings or other treatments. We can prescribe compression stockings or order them in for you at Central Alberta Podiatry. If the veins are smaller, we can also treat them with laser for immediate results.
