Youthful Radiance with Sculptra®

Sculptra® is the original injectable collagen stimulator, featuring microparticles of poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA-SCA), which helps restore facial skin structure for long-lasting improvement. By stimulating natural collagen production, it firms and smooths the cheek region and tightens the jawline. Treatment areas include the cheeks, where it improves skin quality for firmer, glowing skin; smile lines, softening facial folds and wrinkles; and marionette lines, smoothing the lines from mouth to chin. Typically, 3 sessions are required over a few months.

Food to Never Feed Your Dog

All pet owners are aware of the dangers of chocolate. But have you heard of these ones? Keep your pup away from the following: 1. Onions – Plants of this family, including chives and garlic, are not suitable for dogs. Eating these could cause your animal to develop anemia, weakness, rapid breathing and even death. 2. Grapes or Raisins – This fruit can cause severe liver damage and kidney failure. It’s been proven that even a few grapes can potentially be fatal for your pet. 3. Xylitol – Is found in gum, baked goods, and anything else that is sugar substituted. It is extremely toxic to dogs. Even small amounts can cause seizures, liver failure or even death.

Healthy Eating for Healthy Aging

March is Nutrition Month, a great reminder that what we eat plays a key role in overall health, especially as we age. A balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins supports energy, brain function, and heart health. Hydration is just as important—aim for plenty of water throughout the day. For seniors, meal planning helps maintain proper nutrition. Eating smaller, frequent meals can be beneficial, and including calcium-rich foods like dairy, leafy greens, and fortified plant-based options supports bone health. Good nutrition fuels a strong body and mind, keeping us active and independent for longer! Let’s celebrate Nutrition Month by making healthier choices every day.

Sound Healing for Wellness

Sound Baths are incredibly beautiful, but also incredibly healing! Sound healing is an ancient practice that uses vibrations, frequencies, and rhythmic sounds to promote deep physical and mental relaxation. A full body listening experience where participants are “bathed” in sound waves produced by instruments of specific frequencies – such as gongs, Tibetan singing bowls, crystal bowls, chimes and other resonant instruments that calm the nervous system and ignite the natural healing systems of the mind and body! Research suggests physical, mental and emotional benefits of mindfulness, mental clarity, the release of tension and lowering of cortisol levels, reduced pain and anxiety, enhanced mood and improved sleep quality.
