Treatment For Chronic Pain
Patients ask “How Does Prolozone Work?” because they want to explain to others why their chronic pain has improved significantly. Prolozone is a connective tissue injection therapy of collagen producing natural substances and ozone gas which can reconstruct damaged or weakened connective tissue in and around joints. The technique causes repair & tightening of the lax structures, partially torn connective tissue, ligaments and halts the pain/inflammation cycle. This allows for better circulation, increase blood flow carrying nutrition, hydration to the damaged tissues. Prolozone therapy offers a non-surgical, ligament reconstruction option and is a permanent treatment for chronic pain.
3D Healing for Trauma
When a traumatic event happens, emotional information is created and then stored in two places – as a memory in our brain and as an emotion/feeling in the body! Stored and unprocessed emotional trauma is the root cause of many health issues as proven in numerous scientific clinical research studies around the world. The energetic stored negative emotion can be easily removed without pain through the use of a new 3D-Healing application based on Quantum Hypnotherapy. If you experienced a traumatic event, seek help. PTSD can be resolved so that life can continue to be in a happy place.

The Role of your Dental Hygenist
Did you know that a healthy mouth is an important part in keeping us healthy? A dental hygienist plays a very important role in looking after our teeth. Periodontal (gum) disease may increase your risk of serious health problems such as heart attack and stroke and is the leading cause of tooth loss for adults. The signs of gum disease may include bleeding or swollen gums. A dental hygienist works with you to help keep your mouth healthy and to prevent gum disease and tooth decay. Today, dental hygienists work on your schedule including evenings and weekends making it easy for you to maintain your oral health.
