Need a Lift?
A micro-current facelift is a non-invasive anti-aging treatment that is becoming incredibly popular among men and women. What’s great about this treatment is that there is zero downtime! You can come receive a facelift on your lunch break and go back to work with no redness. The treatment works on toning your facial muscles, making you look years younger. There is no pain involved, and there are no side effects or damage to your skin. This safe and natural facelift is beneficial for improvement in the appearance of aged and slackened skin, fine lines and wrinkles, acne scars, dark circles and puffiness, enlarged pores, and muscle tone.
Why are Sunglasses Important?
Sunglasses are more than a fashion statement; their most important role is protecting your eyes and the surrounding skin from the sun’s damaging ultraviolet rays. Damage to the eyes includes cataracts, macular degeneration, pterygiums, and cancer. Extended exposure to UV can cause photokeratitis, also known as snowblindness, a temporary but extremely painful sunburn of the eye. Sunglasses also block glare, which increases comfort in bright light. When buying sunglasses, look for ones that block out at least 99% of both UVA and UVB radiation, so you can keep your eyes healthy and your vision clear. A wide-brimmed hat offers great protection, too.
Looking for the Cause
A common misconception in our society is that health issues and most health problems occur on their own. Symptoms are rarely the problem and can cause us to be worried or scared! A holistic approach can address the cause and help to correct the underlying issues. A sound chiropractic approach seeks to find and correct the cause. If this cannot be done, then a proper referral can be made to find the best solution to the health problem. Symptoms are indicators that something else needs to be addressed. While there is nothing wrong with seeking an easy solution to feel better, not looking for the cause is unhealthy!
Your Gut: It’s a bug’s life!
Your body plays host to trillions of bacteria, the majority of which reside in your intestines. Although microscopic in size, these “bugs” play a large and mighty role in everything from digestion to immune system function, as well as gut brain communication and neurotransmitter production. Not all bacteria are beneficial – what we ingest has a big impact on the type and health of these tiny organisms. Consuming a wide variety of prebiotics and probiotics while avoiding processed sugar, excess alcohol, and smoking all works together to create an environment that supports a bug’s life and consequently optimal health and well-being.
Preparing for Personal Care
It’s important to keep your financial affairs in order, as well as your wishes for your personal care, in the event that you are unable to make decisions regarding your finances and care in the future. Putting together a Power of Attorney for Personal Care document ensures that someone you trust will make decisions about your health care, safety, medical treatment, housing, diet, clothing, and hygiene when you are unable to do so. Usually, people select a spouse, relative, or close friend and give them power over their personal care. This document must be signed by you in front of witnesses to be legal.
A Rock of Healing
Labradorite is an uplifting crystal, helping to banish fears and insecurities while enhancing faith and trust in the universe. Labradorite strengthens natural energies from within and awakens a sense of adventure and change. It calms an overactive mind, energizes the imagination, brings in new ideas, and helps return joy into one’s life. It helps to eliminate the emotional drain of daily routine or heavy responsibilities. Lore of the Inuit peoples claim Labradorite fell from the frozen fire of the Aurora Borealis, shimmering in a mystical light that separates the waking world from unseen realms. It is, in every sense, a stone of magic, a crystal of shamans, diviners, and healers.
