Seniors and Holiday Stress
The holiday season is exciting, but it can also be a stressful time for seniors. Busy family gatherings can be tiring, and the holidays can bring up feelings of anxiety, depression, and even grief. Seniors can make the holiday season less stressful by: 1) Making time for yourself. It may be tempting to accept every holiday invitation you get, but it’s important to leave yourself some downtime. 2) Letting family know what you need. If you have dietary restrictions, mobility needs, etc., be sure to talk to your loved ones. 3) Staying present and positive. Enjoy the little things.
The Benefits of Massage Therapy
Benefits of Massage Therapy The benefits of massage therapy have been documented throughout history dating back to 2000 BCE. Physiologically, massage is effective in managing pain, circulation (blood flow and pressure), lymphatic flow and drainage, the musculoskeletal system (muscles, joints, and posture), respiratory function, and boosting the immune system. Psychological effects include reducing stress (a contributing factor to illness and disease), anxiety, and depression, and even increasing alertness. From reducing joint and muscle rigidity in people suffering from Parkinson’s disease to alleviating headaches in individuals experiencing temporomandibular joint dysfunction, massage therapy just may be the key to increasing a person’s quality of life.
Thai Massage and Acupressure
Thai massage combines stretching with acupressure. Acupressure applies the same principles as acupuncture to promote relaxation and wellness and to treat disease, but uses pressure with thumbs, elbows or knees instead of needles. Thai massage therapists use their fingers, palms, elbows or feet to apply pressure along pressure points and along ten energy channels called sen sib. The goal of acupressure is to restore health and balance to the body’s channels of energy and to regulate opposing forces of negative energy and positive energy.
Chiropractic Care for Pregnancy
Why is chiropractic care so important during pregnancy? At its most basic premise, chiropractic will help you and your nervous system adapt during this major shift. It will help you deal with structural, hormonal and emotional stressors. Structurally, chiropractic will help keep your joints moving appropriately so you can make room for your growing baby. When the pelvis and low back vertebrae are moving appropriately, information can freely flow to all your muscles and organs, via your nerves. This may result in less pain and more nutrients to baby. Other benefits often seen in pregnant women under chiropractic care include headache relief, decrease in nausea and overall stress reduction. We are so honoured to check and adjust women during this monumental time in their lives.
