Light Therapy for Pain

The more we understand the value of increasing circulation to our tissues, the easier it is to understand how and why low-level polychromatic light therapy (PLT) supports the body’s innate healing processes. PLT can bring about beneficial chemical reactions in nerve cells, which can stimulate healing. PLT can provide a wealth of additional health benefits that support full-body wellness. Many people with symptoms of pain or impaired circulation, such as joint pain, arthritis, and injuries, have experienced positive results from using PLT. Clients choose PLT because it’s convenient, a great value, drug-free, and can offer non-invasive healing properties.

Keeping Anxiety in Check

A new year means we can reset and look at aspects of our lives that we might want to focus on or change. Here are some New Year’s resolutions for getting better control of your anxiety: 1) Unplug – give yourself regular breaks from technology. 2) Reach out – talk to people who make you feel good. 3) Move – create a realistic exercise plan. 4) Eat well – consume a healthy diet and drink plenty of water. 5) Know your body – pay attention to your physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health. 6) Consider other solutions – homeopathy offers some very helpful options for anxiety.

Overcoming Holiday Season Overindulgence

If you’ve overindulged this holiday season, here are some great tips for getting back on track! 1) Practice modified intermittent fasting – start by eliminating nighttime snacking to help support fat burning and better sleep. 2) Increase fibre in the diet for good colon health and binding fat-soluble toxins so they won’t get reabsorbed. 3) Start your day with some warm/room temperature water infused with citrus, cucumber, herbs, ginger, etc. to support fluid intake and liver/kidney health. 4) Practice yoga, Pilates, Qi Gong, or Tai Chi in the mornings to breathe and get blood/lymph moving. 5) Do a sugar detox.

Smoking Affects Your Hearing

Did you make any New Year’s resolutions? If you are a smoker, you can now add increased risk of hearing loss to the list of reasons to quit. The chemicals found in cigarettes may affect the way your ear processes sound. In fact, smokers have been found to be 15% more likely to have hearing loss than non-smokers. Hearing loss isn’t fatal, but it can lead to a number of health-related issues down the line. Dementia & depression have been linked to untreated hearing loss, so be sure to have your ears checked regularly. Get started by scheduling a hearing test today.
