Innovative Hearing Technology

Technology can change our lives and hearing aids are no different. Thanks to technology, devices to help individuals with hearing loss are far from the bulky and difficult ones of the past. There is a huge variety of hearing aids to suit the specific hearing profiles of an individual; these can be discrete, easy to use and adaptable. The new smart digital hearing aids feel less like a crutch and more like an accessory. In fact, it is difficult to distinguish between hearing aids and the earbuds that so many people have in their ears. Contact us today to find out more.

Self Care and Connection

Nature provides us with an opportunity to slow down, release the thoughts in our minds and connect with our body and soul. When we immerse in nature it allows us to enter a meditative state, slow down and become more present. We encourage you to take some time out in nature this spring and summer to slow down and reconnect with your soul! We have several opportunities this summer to join us on an outdoor adventure that will allow you to slow down and be more present. We are offering WhatSUP Wednesday, a free community paddle two Wednesday’s every month and a monthly Full Moon Paddle.

The Significance of the Number 7

Did you know that the day of the week you were born can tell you a lot about your health? The day of the week you were born coincides with the 7 metals of alchemy, 7 planets, 7 gemstones, the 7 chakras and the 7 organs and organ systems of the body. The 7 chakras transform the prana energy of the universe and absorb it into the body where it is converted for health. When energy gets blocked, disease occurs. Depending on what day you were born you are more likely to have specific areas blocked. Learn how to avoid or even reverse this from occurring and what you can do to make changes in your life in less than 15 minutes a day!

Detecting the Root Cause

Bioresonance therapy is a cause-oriented therapy that allows people to look for and focus on the root causes of illness and disease, giving them a tool to help look after themselves. Illness and disease can be caused by bacteria, viruses, parasites, mold, and even heavy metal exposure. These harmful factors create disturbances in healthy body systems, and Bioresonance therapy can help detect and manipulate such factors to bring the body’s cells back into their natural vibration frequency. Reducing toxin and stress loads on the body can help bring it back to its self-regulating mode for improved healing and repairing ability.
