Cortisone Injections for Injury Relief
Cortisone injections are commonly used to reduce inflammation and relieve pain from joint or soft tissue injuries. They contain corticosteroids, which mimic the body’s natural anti-inflammatory hormones. These injections are often administered directly into the affected area, such as a knee or shoulder. Relief may be felt within a few days and can last from weeks to months. Cortisone injections are typically part of a broader treatment plan, including rest, physical therapy, or other interventions to support long-term healing and prevent further injury.
Gum Disease While Wearing Dentures?
Dentures are a common solution for individuals with missing teeth, providing functional and aesthetic benefits. However, it’s important to remember that wearing dentures does not eliminate the risk of gum disease. In fact, improper denture care can contribute to gum problems. Gum disease can manifest as redness, swelling, and bleeding gums. When plaque and bacteria accumulate on dentures or denture-supporting tissues, it can lead to inflammation and infection. To prevent gum disease, it’s crucial to maintain proper oral hygiene by cleaning dentures thoroughly, letting your gums rest, and brushing the gums and tongue. Good oral care ensures a healthy smile, whether you have natural teeth or dentures.
Reiki for Stress, Pain, and Tension Relief
In our fast-paced world, stress, tension, and pain often become unwelcome companions in the background of our daily lives. Reiki offers a natural and holistic approach to finding relief by guiding the body into deep relaxation. During a session the nervous system settles and pain signals fade, allowing the body to shift into a state of healing. Reiki helps clear stagnant energy, restoring balance and promoting self-recovery. At Healings for Beings, we know that energy healing is more than just a wellness trend, Reiki provides a pathway to greater ease and comfort, helping individuals reclaim a sense of well-being.

Sleep Apnea and Stroke Risk
Sleep apnea, particularly obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), is a sleep disorder where breathing repeatedly stops and starts during sleep. This condition can lead to reduced oxygen levels, high blood pressure, and poor cardiovascular health,
all of which contribute to an increased risk of stroke. Studies show that untreated sleep apnea can make individuals more susceptible to ischemic strokes, which occur when blood flow to the brain is blocked.
Fun in the Sun
There’s something special about summer — longer days, open windows, and a healthy dose of sunshine. Vitamin D, often called the “sunshine vitamin,” supports bone health, mood, and immunity — and getting it naturally is one more reason to step outside this season.
Reliable Home Care offers flexible, compassionate support — whether it’s a walk around the block, a trip to the park, help preparing a refreshing summer meal, or your personal care needs, from foot care to prenatal and postpartum support — all tailored to your needs and budget; giving you peace of mind — so summer can feel a little brighter for everyone.
Which Sunscreen is Best?
Summer is here! Have you been protecting yourself against sun exposure? When selecting a sunscreen, go for the “broad spectrum” protection. Sunscreens with this label protect against both UVA and UVB rays. Make sure your sunscreen has a sun protection factor of 30 or higher. The SPF number is the level of protection the sunscreen provides against harmful rays. Higher SPF numbers do mean more protection, but the higher you go, the smaller the difference becomes. Secondly, look at the ingredients. Physical blockers (titanium dioxide, zinc oxide) provide the best protection and cause less skin irritation than chemical sunscreens.
Stroke Recovery Through Physio
Physiotherapy plays a vital role in stroke recovery by helping individuals regain movement, strength, and balance to improve daily function and independence. Therapy includes exercises to strengthen muscles, enhance coordination, and address balance and mobility challenges. Physiotherapists also provide training on mobility aids and develop personalized treatment plans. Early and ongoing physiotherapy is essential, with benefits even in chronic stroke cases. The goal is to maximize recovery, support functional independence, and enhance quality of life. Consult our team for individualized treatment recommendations.

A Father’s Day Tribute
Father’s Day is a time to remember and honor the man who shaped our lives with love, strength, and wisdom. Whether he’s still with us or lives on in memory, we celebrate his sacrifices, guidance, and quiet presence. We reflect on shared moments—laughter, lessons, and life milestones—that continue to inspire us. Honoring our father means carrying his values forward and speaking his name with pride. It’s a day to pause, to feel grateful, and to cherish the bond that time cannot break. Through remembrance, we keep his spirit alive and remind ourselves of the deep roots from which we grow.
