This week looks to highlight what Naturopathic Medicine is and how it could be of benefit to you. The naturopathic philosophy is to stimulate the natural healing properties of the body and treat the underlying cause of dysfunction. You can utilize naturopathic medicine along in conjunction with conventional medical therapies to achieve optimal health, as Naturopathic Medicine has a large priority on preventative medicine. This could include dietary and lifestyle advice, herbal medicine, acupuncture amongst other modalities. In these times of stress and uncertainty, check us out to see how we can help support your goals.

Getting Dentures Relined
Even with proper care of your mouth and dentures, it’s normal for changes in underlying bone/gums and regular wear and tear to make your dentures not fit as well. Ill-fitting dentures can trap food and plaque, and can lead to irritation, tissue overgrowth, ulcers, and fungal infections. That’s why it’s important to get your dentures relined every 2 to 4 years. Relining dentures adds material to the inner plate that sits against your gums, making your dentures fit more comfortably. If it feels like your dentures aren’t fitting as well as they used to, contact your denturist!
Benefits of Breast Massage
Massage therapists can be an important part of maintaining or improving your breast health. A Registered Massage Therapist certified in breast massage can help to: increase circulation of blood and lymph fluid, relieve breast pain (including pain from scars), reduce congestion of breast tissue, restore range of motion in the upper body, improve posture, and relieve discomfort from pregnancy and breastfeeding. Therapeutic breast massage includes tissues of the chest, shoulders, and neck, and uses a combination of therapeutic massage techniques, movement, breathing, stretching, and lymph drainage. All women can benefit from therapeutic breast massage, whether they are experiencing breast pain or not!
Benefits of Independent Living
Independent senior living, bridging the gap between aging in place and assisted living, is a retirement haven for seniors who want flexibility and peace of mind. Independent living communities have blossomed, allowing creative cuisine, independent schedules, private parking, and flexible service programs. Say goodbye to the hassle of utility bills, dishes, vacuuming, or grocery shopping. Independent living communities have in-house maintenance workers, housekeeping, and landscapers to take care of it all for you. Time to start enjoying retirement and living the good life! If you are an active senior looking to get the most out of your retirement, we encourage you to learn more about independent living.

On the otherhand, many have not only survived but thrived, taking challenges and turning them into OPPORTUNITIES. Which camp are you in? Perhaps you are familiar with what Henry Ford said many years ago, “Whether you think you can, or you think you can’t – you’re RIGHT.” So here’s to being like the little train who said, ‘I think I can, I think I can.” I for one, believe amazing things are about to happen!

Wireless and other EMF’s play a role in autism. A simple EMF reduction protocol can be implemented to see if it positively impacts your loved ones.

Unplug your cordless phone base station. Turn off wireless baby monitors. Lastly, turn off the circuit breakers to your bedroom. After two weeks, see if you notice a difference. You may be surprised at what it can do for your health and well-being.
