Most of the time, they go away on their own, and in a couple of hours, you have forgotten that you ever had one. Others frequently have headaches, and then there are those who suffer from migraines. It may be monthly, or weekly, but no matter how frequently or infrequently, for many who do experience regular headaches and migraines, you know just how debilitating they can be. What many people don’t know is that acupuncture and Chinese medicine can help ease and reduce the number and severity of headaches and migraines
There are several types of headaches, each with their own set of symptoms, but I find the most common headaches that people come to see me about are;
Tension headache – The most common type of headache, pain is generally felt at the back of the head and neck which may refer to the eyes, or pain may be felt around the temples. They are usually cause by muscle tension, poor posture or a poor pillow resulting in the alignment of the neck being out. They may also be caused by trigger points in the muscle due to ongoing stress or again poor posture
Sinus headache – these are the headache you often get when you have a cold and are all blocked up. If you have sinusitis, you probably suffer from this type of headache frequently. Often in this case they are treated with decongestants, or antibiotics
Migraines – A migraine is a type of headache and are normally throbbing in nature and last between 4 and 72 hours. They usually occur on one side of the head, and are often accompanied by other symptoms such as:
Sensitivity to light, sound and/smell
Numbness and/or tingling down the arm
Slurred speech or inability to speak
Neck and shoulder stiffness
Some people may have migraines that present with the accompanying symptoms, but without the pain. They may be triggered by certain foods, bright or flickering lights, stress, hormones, skipping meals, loud noises, strong smells or even weather changes, with some people being more sensitive than others.
So how can Chinese Medicine help?
As with all conditions in Chinese Medicine, migraines are broken down into categories based on what is causing them. Some common patterns in Chinese Medicine are;
Wind-Heat or Wind-Cold – These types of headaches and migraines may occur when you catch a cold, or you may have started to develop re-occurring migraines after a particularly severe cold or flu. They may also be triggered but the weather, either being out in the cold or in the heat for too long.
Wind-Damp – These are the headaches that come on when there is a sudden change of weather. You may feel like a weather barometer because you always get a headache right before that storm front comes through.
Blood stasis due to injury – remember that car accident where you had whiplash, and ever since you have had headaches? In Chinese Medicine that injury cause blood stasis, and the pain can is often sharp, like being stabbed by needles
Liver Yang Uprising – These are the headaches or migraines that tend to occur more frequently in Spring. They may also be triggered by frustration and anger.
Deficiency – Deficiency patterns usually present with a dull, aching type of headache. Depending on the type of deficiency (Qi, Blood, Yin, Jing) and the meridian affected, can determine the other symptoms and the triggers. Deficient headaches and migraines may be triggered by hormone changes, emotional and physical stress and fatigue.
There are many other types of headaches and migraines, and often people don’t have just one type but may have a combination of patterns that is leading to their headaches.
Treatments are based on your diagnosis; if you have a deficiency headache then that deficiency is treated, or if you have a deficiency with a stagnation, then acupuncture and herbs are given to remove the stagnation and tonifying the deficiency meridians. Advice is given based on the type of headache or migraine that you have been diagnosed with.
There are a few things you can do to help if you frequently suffer from headaches or migraines. Even if you don’t, a few small adjustments may help to prevent you from suffering from them frequently in the future
Cover Up! If it is a cold and windy day (and if you live in Melbourne like me, that isn’t uncommon), then make sure to keep your neck and head covered. Cold causes the muscles to contract, causing muscle tension, but also obstructing the flow of Qi and blood to the head.
Keep your feet warm – if your feet get wet or cold, that cold and damp can enter the meridians and cause headaches later.
Peppermint tea – In Chinese Medicine, peppermint is herb used for treating Liver patterns. It is also great if you are feeling stressed or frustrated.
Relax, take time for yourself – Emotional stressed can often trigger headache and migraines, and today’s lifestyles are fast-paced. We are often in ‘fight or flight’ mode, which doesn’t give our bodies time to heal. Set aside time for yourself every day, whether that is going for a walk, reading a book, listening to music, painting, anything that is for you. Stop and let your body’s nervous systems switch over to the ‘rest and digest’ parasympathetic nervous system.
Caffeine – if you frequently have migraines and drink substantial amounts of coffee, try cutting back to 1-2 cups a day. For others, caffeine may be beneficial
Steam baths are great for clearing congestion. Add some citrus peel, or lemon essential oil with some eucalyptus essential oil. They are also antiviral and antibacterial so great for those with sinusitis or with a head cold. If using essential oils, spend the money and get excellent quality oils. Make sure that they are an essential oil and not a fragrance – these don’t have the properties we need, even if they do smell nice
Posture – if you sit at an office desk all day, get up and walk around at least every hour. Do stretches and exercise, such as the Brugger’s exercise, to stretch and relax the muscle. Try rotating your shoulders throughout the day. I often give my clients stretches to open their chest and neck muscles, which can become tight due to their ‘slumped’ posture. Also think about investing in a high-quality pillow. If your head and neck are not correctly supported, your neck may come out of its correct alignment. In this case, try seeing an osteopath to have your neck adjusted.
Diet – For some a deficiency in magnesium, zinc, or vitamin E may be contributing to their headaches. Try adding unrefined vegetable, nut and seed oils to your diet, and eating more legumes, nuts, seeds, like cashews, almonds, sesame seeds and sunflower seeds to your diet. If using a supplement, ensure you get a superior quality to limit the amount of toxins and to ensure you are getting the most out of the supplement. For others, especially if you work in an environment where you are exposed to toxins (paint, metals, gases), a detox may be required.
Keep a diary – if you do suffer from frequent migraines or headaches, try keeping a diary and note down foods, exercise, weather, emotional and physical stresses and for women also note your menstrual cycle. By keeping a diary it can help to find a pattern to see what may be triggering the headaches.
Note: if you have a known allergy to any of the foods listed, do not consume them. If you have a known allergy to any of the essential oils listed, do not use. If you develop any side effects to the foods, supplements or essential oils, stop consumption/use immediately. If symptoms do not subside, seek out medical help.
Regarding detoxes, it is best when attempting to detox to do so under the supervision of a trained professional. | health |

They are cozy and fit within every type of interior layout. Serving as the perfect relaxing corner after a long day at work, they are equipped with different features that make them more comforting.
Below are the top benefits of owning a recliner chair and why buying one is a worthwhile investment.
- Helps to improve blood circulation
When you spend a long time sitting or standing, blood tends to pool around the feet due to gravity and your body’s overall circulation is hampered. This can lead to blood clogging the veins and swelling of the feet. Recliners can be tilted and help to lift your feet. The seat is designed to evenly spread your weight, easing pain and pressure on your muscles. Relaxing on the recliner for half an hour every day can ease neck, joint, and leg pain. It is perfect for older people and for professionals who spend most of their time sitting in one place.
Eases pregnancy pain
Pregnant women experience pain in their lower back and abdomen during pregnancy. Reclining regularly on a recliner helps to rest the weight on the front while the lower back is relaxed.
Women that have trouble sitting comfortably with good posture during pregnancy typically get achy joints, swollen feet, and similar issues. A recliner provides perfect equilibrium helping them to rest the extra weight and relax.
Allows maximum comfort
Investing in a recliner is a relaxation solution for all members of the family. The technology behind recliners allows for flexibility when it comes to positioning. You can tilt it or raise it to a height that is just right for you. Certain recliners come with a remote control and you can change its position even while you are sitting on it. This allows for maximum comfort to the user.
Relaxing on a recliner every day works is a great stress-buster. Spend your free time reading a book or watching TV while sitting in your recliner. For the best results, however, close your eyes and simply relax while you are resting on it.
There are different types of recliner designs and styles with multiple features which you can invest in. Relaxing on a recliner for half an hour every day can relieve stress and pain, saving a trip to the physiotherapist. There are different price ranges and a variety of materials to choose from, though leather is a popular and classic choice. It is durable and blends with every type of interior design.

- Rugs are a breeding ground for mold and other fungi. The effects of fungal elements can be severe and cause skin infections. The cleaning solutions used by experts destroy the sources that cause fungal contamination.
- To get rid of bacteria and pollen. These things get carried in from the outside and end up on your rug. This might explain why your allergies are acting up again, or why your family keeps on getting sick. If not properly cleaned, a rug can become a health hazard.
- To get rid of Tobacco smoke residue. 43 Chemicals found in tobacco smoke are harmful to your health. If you are sensitive to cigarette smoke, you’ll be surprised by how much easier you’ll breathe after an expert service has cleaned your rugs.
- Having a rug professionally cleaned helps to maintain its form. The equipment you use at home is vastly inferior to the equipment used by a rug cleaning company. Dirt and sand particles are abrasive and can damage the fibers of the rug, causing it to wear quickly.
- The Experts know how different rugs must be treated. Not every rug is made from the same materials, and therefore they are not all the same. What is good for one might cause irreparable damage to another type of rug. A professional rug cleaner knows what every rug type needs.
Use the professionals for the best possible service
Instead of opting for boring wall-to-wall carpeting, you’ve decided to rather add warmth and color to your home by investing in stunning rugs. But, you will need to take special care in order to keep these investments looking gorgeous for as long as possible.
Don’t let your rugs become damaged by inferior cleaning. And why be stingy when your family’s health is at risk? To get in contact with a professional rug cleaner in Arlington, TX visit Oriental Rug Cleaning Co today. | health |

Daily routines have been turned upside down and nobody can escape it. As of this writing, there have been more than 250,000 deaths in the US alone. It has been a national and worldwide nightmare in every regard. Even those who have not lost loved ones are under tremendous stress.
America had been enduring a stress plague for decades before the pandemic. Stress was already a comorbidity factor for the six most frequent causes of death.¹ Now those factors make all Americans more vulnerable to COVID-19 as the third wave crosses the country. People everywhere need a way to cope with the newest challenge ahead for the winter of 2020.
Fortunately, there is a medically proven method (see footnotes) that successfully relieves stress without the use of prescription drugs. It’s freely available to everyone right now. The effects of the treatment are long lasting, and there are no negative side effects. The miracle method is called gratitude.
Two human energy domains can break the stress cycle: the heart and brain domains. When the energy of those two domains are joined together in sincere gratitude practice, science has proven it effective to eliminate stress for months at a time.
Skeptics will of course scoff at the idea above. That’s what skeptics do, but science is not on their side. If they choose to be among the millions of Americans who spend $190 billion annually2 for doctor visits that are largely ineffective, so be it.
It is obligatory to warn skeptics about drug prescriptions for stress relief such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). That class of pharmaceutical comes with multiple side effects and may alter the brain’s natural ability to form neural networks. Memory loss and sexual dysfunction are also widely reported after long-term use.
By comparison with SSRIs, both religious practitioners and scientific experts endorse gratitude practice as effective and entirely safe. Moreover, the brain is apparently wired to extend gratitude practice by drawing a practitioner’s attention to similar objects of appreciation.
It’s our choice to either surrender to the myth of a flawed brain or to cure it with our own power.
How Gratitude Increases Brain Coherence
Gratitude releases the pleasure chemicals serotonin, dopamine and norepinephrine in the brain. Those compounds relax the sympathetic nervous system and stimulate a palpable sense of well-being within minutes.3
Gratitude is an elevated state of mind serving to reboot thought processes and the nervous system. It’s like a clean slate to reevaluate and focus on the asset side of life’s account ledger.
A short list of other benefits of gratitude from studies published by Positive Psychology include:4
- Increases happiness and positive mood
- Reduces anxiety and depression
- Regulates stress
- Better physical health
- Better sleep
- Less fatigue
- Greater resiliency
Once attentional priorities are shifted, our brains help us find more reasons to be grateful. The cingulate gyrus is hardwired to do so.5 Participants in gratitude studies maintained improved function and moods for months after the conclusion of investigations.6
A real-world example of the above is the purchase of a new car. A person’s attention to their new car is noted by the cingulate gyrus, and the proud new car owner suddenly spots many cars just like it on the road. The cars were always there. It is our attention and frequent conversations about the car that signaled the cingulate gyrus to find more cars of the same type.
If you lose your keys frequently, it may be a good idea to keep a picture of them handy to shorten your next search. It really works.
The exercises below from Harvard University are designed to make gratitude practice a cultivated habit through practice:7
- Thank You Notes — Sending gratitude notes to other people in your life is mutually rewarding. Don’t forget to send one to yourself on occasion.
- Send Mental Gratitude — Focus on someone you appreciate and send gratitude mentally. Your brain and subconscious won’t know the difference, and quantum physics indicates the targeted person may get the message.
- Gratitude Journal — Writing your affirmations and reasons for gratitude reinforce the practice and strengthen the brain’s neural connections via the tactile sense. It’s great habit where you can see your progress too.
- Pray — Prayer has been proven effective in multiple studies to improve internal thought coherence.
- Meditation — Supercharge your ability to focus on the present and remain mindful in all situations with meditation.
It takes 66 days on average to make a new behavior an automatic habit, but it can take as few as 18 or as many as 254 days.
Any competent neurologist today will confirm the human capacity to rewire the brain. The term “neuroplasticity” was first coined in 1948, and by the 1970’s the brain was discovered to be a dynamic system capable of rewiring itself. By the early 2000’s neurosurgeons were able to grow functional neurons in the lab from stem cells.
There are currently no known limits to neuronal plasticity or neural growth. The phrase “changing my mind” is quite literal when ardently pursued over time. The medical evidence is overwhelming and not in dispute.
Any healthy person can rewire their brain. Repetition and dedication are needed to affect long-term change, but the payoffs are enormous and continual. Every new habit is a modification of the brain.
Einstein said, “We cannot solve our problems with the same level of thinking that created them.” The release of pleasure hormones and subsequent relaxation of the nervous system provides the opportunity to transcend the stressed mindset entirely. That transcendence is a window of opportunity to break the stress cycle and to solve any problem.
When the final history of 2020 is written, it will undoubtedly include a death rate far higher than that directly attributed to the pandemic. Americans are most vulnerable because our stress levels were already off the charts compared to nations worldwide. We had the highest percentage of comorbidities as a result. History will note how many additional deaths were caused by those comorbidities alone. It’s time to deal with our stress head on. It’s free, easy and healthy.
This video with gratitude affirmations will help readers get started with well-constructed statements. It also shows how some of the least noticed aspects of nature work together to create the stage upon which our lives are free to unfold according to our desires. We all have much to live for.

Obtaining Medicaid eligibility can seem like a confusing and daunting task for adult children and spouses. Medicaid is a need-based program administered by the Department of Public Welfare of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, using funding from the federal government and Pennsylvania. Medicaid is subject to changes in the law by Congress -- such a change was recently enacted with the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005.
Are you under the impression that you will need to spend down all of your assets in order to become eligible for Medicaid? Did you know it is possible to prepare a specific plan that suits you and your family members -- a plan that allows you to maintain financial well-being and still become eligible for Medicaid? If you are interested in learning more about Medicaid planning and eligibility, consider a lawyer from Sikov and Love, P.A. We have the resources to successfully help you or a family member obtain Medical Assistance.
Would you like to learn more about Medicaid planning? Please contact Sikov and Love, P.A. to arrange your consultation. Since our founding in 1957, we have set a standard for quality legal services.
We can help you prepare an appropriate Medicaid/Medical Assistance plan based upon your specific financial situation.
Your Unique Situation
Our long term care planning services include helping you prepare a Medicaid plan that is specific to your personal situation. A plan for an individual with modest assets can be quite different from a plan for a person with substantial assets. We thoroughly evaluate your entire situation--including income, savings, and assets. We are highly skilled in helping individuals protect assets and qualify for Medical Assistance.
Creating Flexible Medicaid Plans
You and loved ones each have a unique medical and financial situation that can change at any time. It is important to create plans that are flexible and appropriate to a variety of situations. The lawyers of Sikov and Love, P.A. have experience in responding quickly to crisis situations. Please contact our firm to learn more about Medicaid planning.
How the Deficit Reduction Act Affects You
President Bush signed the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005 in an effort "to slow the pace of spending growth in both Medicare and Medicaid." The signing of the Act has resulted in complications to obtaining Medicaid and Medicare coverage. Among these changes are new restrictions on transferring assets to qualify for Medicaid long term care and nursing home care. In March of 2006, attorney Carol Sikov Gross was one of the first attorneys to recognize the consequences of these new laws. In addition to helping clients understand these consequences, she has lectured to many groups and has taught at seminars teaching her fellow attorneys about these new laws.

Whether it’s public speaking anxiety, stuttering, or difficulty articulating thoughts, overcoming speaking problems requires a combination of self-awareness, targeted strategies, and persistent effort. In this comprehensive guide, we will explore various speaking challenges and provide practical tips and techniques to help individuals overcome these hurdles and find their authentic voice.
Section 1: Identifying Common Speaking Challenges
1.1 Public Speaking Anxiety: Fear of public speaking is one of the most prevalent challenges. It often manifests as nervousness, trembling, or a racing heart when faced with speaking in front of others.
1.2 Stuttering: Stuttering involves disruptions in the normal flow of speech, characterized by repetitions, prolongations, or blocks in sounds, syllables, or words.
1.3 Difficulty Articulating Thoughts: Some individuals struggle with verbalizing their thoughts clearly and coherently, finding it challenging to express themselves in a fluid manner.
1.4 Social Anxiety: Social anxiety may hinder effective communication in various social situations, leading to self-consciousness, avoidance, or difficulty initiating and maintaining conversations.
Section 2: Strategies for Overcoming Public Speaking Anxiety
2.1 Practice Regularly: Repetition builds familiarity and confidence. Practice your speech or presentation multiple times before the actual event to reduce anxiety and improve fluency.
2.2 Visualize Success: Use visualization techniques to picture yourself successfully delivering your speech. Imagine positive reactions from the audience to build confidence and alleviate anxiety.
2.3 Deep Breathing Exercises: Practice deep breathing exercises to calm your nerves. Inhale slowly through your nose, hold the breath, and exhale through your mouth. Repeat this process to relax your body and mind.
2.4 Focus on the Message, Not Perfection: Shift your focus from striving for perfection to delivering your message authentically. Recognize that minor imperfections are natural and often go unnoticed by the audience.
Section 3: Techniques for Managing Stuttering
3.1 Speech Therapy: Seek professional help from speech therapists who specialize in stuttering. Speech therapy can provide personalized strategies to enhance fluency and reduce stuttering.
3.2 Slow and Paced Speech: Practice speaking slowly and deliberately. Slowing down can reduce the frequency and severity of stuttering incidents.
3.3 Pause and Breathe: Incorporate intentional pauses into your speech. Pausing gives you time to breathe, gather your thoughts, and can be an effective tool for managing stuttering.
3.4 Desensitization Techniques: Gradual exposure to challenging speaking situations can desensitize individuals to anxiety triggers. Gradually increase the complexity of speaking tasks to build confidence over time.
Section 4: Enhancing Articulation and Clarity
4.1 Tongue Twisters: Regularly practice tongue twisters to improve articulation and clarity. These exercises target specific speech muscles and enhance their coordination.
4.2 Vocal Warm-Ups: Engage in vocal warm-up exercises to prepare your vocal cords and improve overall voice quality. Humming, sirens, and lip trills are effective warm-up techniques.
4.3 Record and Evaluate: Record yourself speaking and evaluate the recordings to identify areas for improvement. Pay attention to pronunciation, pacing, and overall clarity.
4.4 Enunciation Exercises: Consciously work on enunciating each word clearly. Focus on the precision of your speech by emphasizing consonants and vowels.
Section 5: Overcoming Social Anxiety in Communication
5.1 Positive Self-Talk: Challenge negative thoughts and replace them with positive affirmations. Remind yourself of your strengths and capabilities in social situations.
5.2 Gradual Exposure: Gradually expose yourself to social situations that trigger anxiety. Start with small interactions and progressively increase the complexity of social encounters.
5.3 Active Listening: Focus on active listening during conversations. By redirecting your attention to the speaker, you shift the focus away from your own anxiety, creating a more positive and engaging interaction.
5.4 Join Supportive Groups: Participate in groups or activities where you feel supported and accepted. Building connections in a safe and encouraging environment can help alleviate social anxiety.
Section 6: Building Confidence in Communication
6.1 Positive Visualization: Visualize successful communication scenarios. Picture yourself confidently expressing ideas and engaging in meaningful conversations to reinforce positive associations with speaking.
6.2 Join Public Speaking Groups: Joining public speaking groups, such as Toastmasters, provides a supportive and constructive environment to practice speaking, receive feedback, and build confidence.
6.3 Set Realistic Goals: Establish achievable speaking goals to track your progress. Celebrate small victories along the way, reinforcing your growing confidence in communication.
6.4 Seek Professional Guidance: Consider seeking guidance from communication coaches or therapists who specialize in speech and language. Professional support can offer personalized strategies and tools to overcome specific challenges.
Overcoming speaking challenges is a transformative journey that requires patience, self-compassion, and consistent effort. By identifying the specific hurdles you face, implementing targeted strategies, and gradually pushing your comfort zone, you can build confidence and find your authentic voice. Remember that effective communication is a skill that can be developed and refined over time. Whether you’re addressing public speaking anxiety, stuttering, articulation issues, or social anxiety, the key lies in persistence, self-reflection, and a commitment to growth. Embrace the journey, celebrate your progress, and witness the empowerment that comes with overcoming speaking challenges to express yourself confidently and authentically. | health |

BPHC will administer the grant funds to providers located in the Boston Eligible Metropolitan Area (EMA) to improve health outcomes and reduce HIV transmission among hard-to-reach populations and those that are under or uninsured. The grant comes from HRSA’s Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program, a part of the United States Department of Health & Human Services.
“Everyone that is diagnosed with HIV/AIDS deserves the chance to access treatment”, said Chief of Health and Human Services, Marty Martinez. “The Ryan White Program and others supported by the city are intentional in distributing funds for services offered in a variety of settings, including AIDS service organizations, community health centers, substance use treatment agencies, and minority-based agencies. This model is one that works. These new funds will enable us to do even more now as part of a nationwide effort to end HIV/AIDS.”
The Boston EMA is comprised of 308 cities and towns within 10 counties including seven counties in Massachusetts and three counties in New Hampshire. As of December 31, 2017, there were 18,149 people living with HIV/AIDS reported in the Boston EMA. However, in 2017, there were 227 people diagnosed with AIDS, a 27 percent decrease in AIDS diagnoses since 2013.
“This funding demonstrates the commitment of the Mayor, the Boston Public Health Commission and the Boston Ryan White Planning Council to provide life supporting and lifesaving services and medications to our neighbors here in the greater Boston area and southern New Hampshire while we continue our work to stop new HIV infections,” said Stephen Corbett, Chair of the Boston EMA Planning Council.
This funding, together with funding from the City of Boston and other sources, plays a critical role in supporting patients in accessing care across the continuum of HIV prevention and care services. Comprehensive HIV care includes access to antiretroviral therapy, substance use treatment services, mental health treatment, and oral health care. This grant focuses on reducing health disparities and barriers to treatment as well, providing funding support regarding transportation, nutrition, and housing. Included the new grant is Minority AIDS Initiative (MAI) funding that focuses on reducing racial and ethnic disparities throughout the HIV care continuum.
“We are making a real difference in the lives of thousands of people living with HIV/AIDS through the Ryan White Program. The funding empowers patients to access medication and the services that are right for them in order to help them keep their viral load low, and in many cases, thanks to this program, at an undetectable level. The robust funding being provided now will allow us to provide even more of the important wrap-around services patients need,” said Jenifer Leaf Jaeger, MD, MPH, Director of the Infectious Disease Bureau at BPHC.
In January, the Boston Public Health Commission and The Massachusetts Department of Public Health reported an outbreak of new HIV cases in persons who inject drugs in Boston. A couple of months later, a similar outbreak was announced to be occurring in other parts of the state, including in Worcester. These follow the outbreak in Lowell and Lawrence in 2017. The increasing rates of HIV infections in vulnerable populations demonstrates the importance of funds for early detection, treatment and comprehensive prevention efforts targeting people who inject drugs.

It is the perfect pre-styling product as it is great for detangling & moisturizing as it softens and smooths your hair while increasing shine and elasticity.
Now we know what you're thinking, "Plantain? Yes! For your hair? Uhm?" Well Yes, naturalistas/os. There are uses for plantain other than consuming it. We're well aware of how great it tastes and its nutritious benefits for our body, so we decided to explore what it does for your hair. Plantain has a multitude of benefits that can help you to achieve your hair goals.
Here are 4 benefits:
1. Great source of Vitamin E - Plantains are rich in Vitamin E which is great for our scalp as it contains anti-bacterial and anti-microbial properties that help to soothe scalp issues and promote blood circulation to the scalp. These issues include dandruff, an itchy scalp and/or flakey scalp.
2. Moisturizes the Hair - Plantains contain a high level of natural emollients. These help to penetrate the hair shaft so that it can be absorbed. The emollients also provide your kinks, curls and/or coils with much-needed moisture so that they can thrive. This means that your hairstyles will last much longer as this helps with combatting frizz.
3. Aids in Detangling - Once your curls have absorbed the minerals and vitamins from the plantain they tend to become soft and supple. This makes it far easier for you to remove any knots and tangles in your hair which usually prevent length retention. It saves you time and energy as detangling your hair can definitely be time consuming. Did we mention that you will have a knot-free wash and go or twist out? Hooray to that!
4. Strengthens the hair - Plantains are also rich in Vitamin C which we know is great for the body in general. But for the hair? It encourages follicle cell repair thus keeping hair healthy. This promotes the growth of strong, nourished strands that will not break or tangle easily. It also provides extra protection during the manipulation of the hair via various means.
With all the benefits of plantains, plantain herb and other beneficial ingredients, we formulated our Sweet Plantain Leave-in Conditioner. No need to spend a vast amount of time on your kitchen/bathroom counter trying to figure out a DIY. This leave-in boasts vitamins and minerals your scalp and hair will be grateful for. It is also priced affordably so you don’t have to break the bank to show love to your curls and coils.
How to use:
Section your hair into 4 or more sections and apply an ample amount to each section using the praying hands' method. Style as desired and voila!
One way to use our Sweet Plantain Leave-In Conditioner:
After Wash Routine (LCO - low porosity hair) (LOC - high porosity hair):
Liquid – The “L” in the LCO method represents liquid. When incorporating our Sweet Plantain Leave-In in this routine we suggest using water in a spray bottle for this step.
Cream – The “C” in the LCO method stands for cream. We recommend using our Sweet Plantain Leave-In conditioner as your "cream". In the LOC method, the cream comes last, but in the LCO method, it comes second.
Oil – The “O” in the LCO method stands for oil. For this step, apply a small amount of our Herbal Infused Hair Oil to your hair. | health |

They have discovered genetic clues that correlate with response versus resistance, enabling them to identify new therapies to overcome resistance and expand efficacy. They also discovered that certain components of the gut microbiota—microbes that live in a patient’s digestive tract—could stimulate the immune system to attack tumor cells. They are now refining this approach and analyzing a large cohort of human samples.

Dan is home! We brought him home around 6pm tonight and thanks to some help from my son, Byron, and his friend, Zack, we got him in the house and safely situated on the reclining love seat.
More miracles here - he took the stress test today and passed with no problems. As a result, the cardiologist decided no stents were necessary! This meant no more invasion of the body, no more needles into arms that no longer had places to stick them without the aid of ultrasound to find the veins, and some peace in the comfort of his own home. The doctor said there was little to no damage to the heart, and the heart muscle appears to be very strong. According to the latest studies, stents do little to prevent future heart attacks, and the consensus was that medicine, coupled with weight loss, a healthy diet and proper, regular exercise, would do more, and be more safe, than any kind of surgery. After considering the possibilities, we opted to adopt this approach. He has had no chest pain since the initial heart attack and subsequent cardiac arrest, and should be able to resume a normal life in a reasonably short time. He will see his cardiologist in 3 weeks and will likely enter the cardiac rehab program at our local hospital.
Thanks to all for the kind wishes, prayers, and words of comfort over this past week. Even though I have not been able to visit everyone with any regularity, your responses to my updates have been incredibly important to me.

Proteins are the building blocks of life, playing a critical role in the structure and function of living organisms. These complex molecules are made up of long chains of amino acids, which are linked together by peptide bonds. The sequence of amino acids in a protein determines its unique 3-dimensional structure, which in turn determines its function. Proteins have many important roles in living organisms, including providing structural support, enzymatic catalysis, transport, immune defense, and hormonal signaling.
One of the key functions of proteins is to provide structural support. Many proteins, such as collagen, elastin, and keratin, provide support and shape to cells, tissues, and organs. For example, collagen is a major component of connective tissues like tendons and ligaments, while keratin is a key component of hair, nails, and the outer layer of skin. The unique structure of these proteins allows them to provide strength and flexibility to different parts of the body.
Proteins also act as catalysts for biochemical reactions in cells. Enzymes are specialized proteins that speed up chemical reactions and help to regulate metabolic processes. Without enzymes, many biochemical reactions would occur too slowly to sustain life. For example, the enzyme lactase helps to break down lactose in milk, allowing it to be digested by humans. Enzymes also play a critical role in the regulation of cellular processes, helping to control the rate and direction of biochemical reactions.
Transport is another important function of proteins. Some proteins act as carriers, transporting molecules such as oxygen, nutrients, and waste products across cell membranes and throughout the body. Hemoglobin, for example, is a protein found in red blood cells that carries oxygen from the lungs to the body's tissues. Other proteins, like albumin, transport a wide range of molecules throughout the body, including hormones, drugs, and fatty acids.
Proteins are also critical for immune defense. Antibodies are proteins that recognize and neutralize foreign substances like viruses and bacteria. These proteins are produced by specialized cells in the immune system in response to an infection. Antibodies bind to specific foreign molecules, marking them for destruction by other cells in the immune system.
Finally, proteins are involved in hormonal signaling. Hormones are proteins that act as messengers, transmitting signals between cells and regulating physiological processes like growth and development. For example, insulin is a hormone that helps to regulate blood sugar levels by signaling cells to absorb glucose from the blood. Other hormones, like growth hormone and thyroid hormone, regulate growth, metabolism, and other important physiological processes.
In conclusion, proteins are essential to the structure, function, and regulation of living organisms. The unique sequence of amino acids in a protein determines its structure and function, which can vary widely depending on the specific protein. Proteins play many important roles in the body, including providing structural support, catalyzing biochemical reactions, transporting molecules, defending against foreign substances, and transmitting signals between cells. Without proteins, life as we know it would not be possible. | health |

He explained that they support kidney patients and their families. The SCKPA covers members from the area served by the Oxford Radcliffe Hospital N.H.S. trust and its successors (Oxon, Northants, Bucks, Berks and parts of Wilts and Glos)
Most people with kidney disease have no symptoms because the body can tolerate even a large reduction in kidney function. In other words, we are born with a lot more kidney function than is necessary for survival. Kidney function is often sufficient if only one kidney is working.
A change in kidney function is usually discovered through a routine blood or urine test. If you are diagnosed with kidney disease, your kidney function will be monitored with regular blood tests, and treatment aims to keep any symptoms to a minimum.
If the kidneys continue to lose function and there is progression towards kidney failure, this will usually be tracked by blood tests and monitoring.
Dialysis is a form of treatment that replicates many of the kidney’s functions. It is often used to treat advance chronic kidney disease, where the kidneys have lost most or all of their function. This is known as kidney failure or end stage renal disease. If your kidneys stop working properly, waste products build up and cause symptoms including:vomiting: itchy skin: fatigue: blood in the urine.
Without necessary treatment such as dialysis, kidney failure will eventually prove fatal.
Many people will remain on dialysis on a long-term basis (possibly for the rest of their lives) but for a significant minority the goal will be a kidney transplant.
Haemodialysis is the type of dialysis that most people are aware of. It involves inserting a needle, which is attached by a tube to a dialysis machine, into a blood vessel.
Blood is transferred from your body into the machine, which filters out waste products and excess fluids. The filtered blood is then passed back into your body.
Most people require three sessions a week, each lasting four hours.
Peritoneal dialysis is a less well known type of dialysis, but it’s becoming more common. It involves using the peritoneum as a filter. To explain this John had brought along Mike Pitcher to show and explain how this works. The peritoneum is a thin membrane that lines the inside of the abdomen and surrounds and supports the abdominal organs, such as the stomach and liver. Like the kidneys, the peritoneum contains thousands of tiny blood vessels, making it useful as a filtering device.
During peritoneal dialysis, a small flexible tube, known as a catheter, is attached to an incision in your abdomen. A special fluid called dialysis fluid is pumped into the space that surrounds your peritoneum (the peritoneal cavity).
As blood moves through the peritoneum, waste products and excess fluid are moved out of the blood and into the dialysis fluid. The dialysis fluid is then drained from the cavity.
The process of peritoneal dialysis lasts roughly 30 to 40 minutes and is repeated around four times a day. Alternatively, you can run it overnight.
John explained that they needed to raise more funds for the future for new facilities such as a new renal ward but they put most of the focus on patient support. Many interesting questions were asked during the talk and we had an impromptu collection. Along with the donation from the group amounted to £85.50. A very interesting afternoon was had by all.
How does haemodialysis work?
Blood taken from the body to be cleaned in a filter known as a dialyser (artificial kidney). A dialyser works on the principle of blood flowing along one side of a semi-permeable membrane made of cellulose or a similar product, with the dialysate flowing along the other side. The dialysate contains a regulated amount of minerals normally present in the blood, but in renal failure they are present in excess. The membrane has tiny holes of different sizes so that the excess fluid and substances in the blood pass through at different rates, small molecules quickly and larger ones more slowly, to be taken away in the dialysate until a correct balance in the blood is achieved.
A kidney machine regulates blood flow, pressure and the rate of exchange.
As only a very small amount of blood is in the dialyser at any given time, blood needs to circulate from patient to dialyser to patient for about 4 hours. Treatment is usually 3 times per week. The time and strength of dialysis can be programmed for each patient.
Blood is carried from the patient to the dialyser and returned through dialysis lines (plastic tubes) which are connected to the patient in one of two ways:
The joining of a vein and artery just under the skin, usually on the forearm makes the vein swell to allow needles to be inserted and removed after each treatment. Between treatments only a small scar and swelling are visible. | health |

Havant and East Hants Mind are affiliated to the national Mind charity and work in collaboration with other local Minds across England and Wales, providing an array of mental health services, projects, training and campaigning.
Local Mind charities such as Havant and East Hants Mind are run by local people for their local communities and their range of services and support is diverse. This includes, but is not limited to, providing crisis helplines or centres, wellbeing and recovery services, physical health activities and advice for Carers. Over 396,000 people have been supported by local Minds across England and Wales this year alone.
Due to the ever-increasing national media exposure on the topic of mental health, charities such as Mind are fast gaining traction. With this national interest and local service provision, people are starting to reach out more and more, taking advantage of the many free services that are available.
Importantly, companies are increasingly recognising their duty to uphold and protect the welfare and wellbeing of their staff now more than ever. This can be seen with companies investing in workplace mental health strategies, with Mental Health First Aiders or Connect 5 champions to specifically recognise and deal with issues as they are known.
Hampshire FA’s partnership with Havant and East Hants Mind was recognised for that exact purpose. The county FA has reached out to form a partnership with the local Mind charity, providing extensive mental health and wellbeing support for all staff across each of the hub sites. The county FA already has trained in-house mental health first aiders but saw an opportunity to extend the work being done behind the scenes by collaborating with a known and respected charity provider. Additionally, the local Mind charity will be providing the county FA with a communications plan to implement along with supporting materials so that key messages around mental health are extensively promoted alongside football related news and activities across Hampshire FA’s social media and the website.
“We recognise our duty far extends beyond the likes of the field and the clubhouse. Many people use sport as an outlet. We also understand that sport plays a crucial role in relieving stress and anxiety, that it increases health benefits, physically, socially and psychologically. Linking with Havant and East Hants Mind is part of our overall commitment to mental health, starting first with our staff and then cascading down benefits to our football community through the consistent promotion of key messages and joint-organisation activities”. Neil Cassar, CEO of Hampshire FA
“We are thrilled at the partnership opportunity with Hampshire FA helping us to reach so many more sports clubs to raise awareness of mental health and available support, including our own services. In recent years we have expanded the range of services we offer and now provide support right across Hampshire in many areas. The partnership plus funding from Hampshire Council will help us raise skills amongst club communities so people feel more confident to talk about their own concerns and learn proactive steps we can all take to stay well or support others. We will also run campaigns to combat the stigma that still exists surrounding mental ill health. We have developed an excellent programme of Mental Health Ambassadors in sport launched in 2020 and currently work with Havant FC Walking Football Club and within rugby and cricket clubs.
We hope to expand this to hundreds of football clubs over time. Havant and East Hants Mind is also linked to national initiatives- working as charity partner at Portsmouth FC and national Mind over several seasons, as part of the well-publicised EFL On Your Side project.” Ross Borman, Business Development Manager of Havant and East Hants Mind | health |

Stumbling downstairs to get kids ready for school: my older one is also getting ready for a “Rudolph’s Nose” competition; my middle one is barking; only my dear little Big Button, my youngest one is beaming from ear to ear with one of his special adorable smiles – all super sweet, mischievous, equally irresistible. That softens all our gloomy gazes, but we still need something to feel better: quick, efficient, and simple. And since I am tired of reading everyday reports how the solutions offered at the local pharmacy now are considered close to lethal, I’d rather offer my kids something homemade, made from the ingredients I both have in my pantry and I can pronounce.
A word of caution: I strongly believe in moderation. Western medicine is what sustains our living; it has its time and place. High fever should not be cured with some alcohol rubbings, which only lead to dehydration; it requires a visit to the doctor. A bacterial infection such as strep or a persistent ear infection – needs antibiotics. Very miserable kid who has a hard time sleeping – needs some Tylenol, to get some badly needed rest and snoozy self-healing.
And this recipe? I use it for colds and flu, for immune system boost, or in addition to common practices. This tea works for my family. Everybody’s immune system is different, so you’ll have to experiment to see what really works for you.
Cold & Flu Fighting Zesty Tea
- 4 cups of water
- 1 cinnamon stick
- Pain reliever, antibacterial and anti-fungal remedy, stimulates circulation and its smell fools us to associate the tea with a warm bakery rather than a witchy apothecary.
- 3 cloves of garlic
- In a tea?! Yep. It’s a king of immune system remedies… and trust my overly sensitive palate – all other ingredients overpower its smell and taste by miles and miles. In the end, I can neither smell it nor taste it.
- ¼ tsp cloves
- Make it easier to cough and eliminate phlegm. Cloves add some antioxidants and help as a natural pain reliever.
- ½ tbsp. turmeric
- Antiviral, antiseptic, is one of the best to help prevent cold and flu. Does wonders for the immune system.
- 1 inch of fresh ginger, peeled and cut into ¼ inch circles
- Relieves sore throat, loosens up the congestion, calms upset stomach, and boasts some anti-inflammatory powers – sheer goodness. The cornerstone of success in this recipe.
- Freshly squeezed juice of one lemon
- Lemon is naturally antibacterial, has tons of vitamin C, helps to detoxify the liver. Most of that goodness gets destroyed by boiling, so I prefer to add lemon juice at the end when the tea has somewhat chilled a bit.
- 1 ½ tbsp raw honey
- Raw – is the key. Boiled honey loses all its magical powers, and even obtains some harmful ones (and that pretty bear jar with its easy-to-pour yummy goodness has been pasteurized out of all its helpful ingredients), so check your local farm, the healthy/organic section of your supermarket or just order online a real raw honey. It tastes great. It has antibacterial and antimicrobial effects. It offers tons of help to the immune system.
- 1 pinch cayenne (start with this and add more to taste…the more you can handle the better)
- Supposedly, it warms up the body, stimulates mucus release in your respiratory passages, increases circulation, numbs the pain. Personal experimentation: hasn’t taken place yet. Still gathering the courage. As I said, my really sensitive palate can tolerate all other ingredients, but cayenne seems too much for me. Let me know how it goes for you.
- Boil the water.
- Add ginger, garlic, cinnamon stick, cloves, turmeric. And cayenne, if you are brave enough.
- Reduce heat to low and let it simmer for about 10 minutes.
- Once it is ready, pour it into a cup; if it is too strong for you – dilute it with more warm water. Once it has “drinkable temperature (whatever it means for you), add lemon juice. It really helps to tame the strong flavors; I was amazed how much it helped.
- Get a spoon of honey on the side (again, I avoid adding the honey to the tea to keep all its healing abilities)… and enjoy!
How does it taste? If I say that it is a godsend – I’d be lying. Nevertheless, it really is a godsend for your health, and a “spoonful of sugar makes the medicine go down! Substitute a spoonful of sugar for some honey and things get really good. Freshly squeezed lemon helps A LOT. Honey – even more so. It tastes like a fine but strong exotic tea.
As for kids? Again, if I claim they are begging for more, you’d laugh me in the face. Yet, I am persistent: I dilute it, offer that magic spoonful of honey, and let them dip a regular chamomile or berry tea packet in it. Read an interesting story, while they are drinking it.
They love the dipping. They love the honey. They love-love-love listening to stories (and it gives me a chance to pause for them to take a sip). So the tea happily goes down with it.
Next time: our favorite natural homemade coughing reliefs.
Meanwhile, let us know how it works for you! | health |

10 Tips for Dating Someone With Borderline Personality Disorder | LoveToKnow
Hearing someone else share your struggles and negotiate the realities of the illness can be both comforting and illuminating. Borderline Personality Disorder is a chronic and complex mental health disorder marked by instability, and interpersonal relationships are often the stage on which this instability plays out. Barbara Greenberg , a clinical psychologist who treats patients with BPD, explains:. Often, this emptiness and intense fear of abandonment are the result of early childhood trauma and the absence of secure, healthy attachments in the vital formative years.
Paradoxically, the overwhelming fear manifests in behaviors that deeply disrupt the relationship and pushes partners away rather than pulls them closer, resulting in a stormy and tumultuous dynamic that typically emerges in the early days of dating. When they are in relationships they get very intensely involved way too quickly. But then what comes along with it, a couple of weeks later, is: Everything is done with passion, but it goes from being very happy and passionate to very disappointed and rageful.
They may use alcohol, food, or drugs or other addiction to try to self-medicate their pain, but it only exacerbates it. Like all personality disorders, BPD exists on a continuum, from mild to severe.
Passion and Fear in BPD Relationships
To diagnose BPD, at least five of the following symptoms must be enduring and present in a variety of areas:. The cause of BPD is not clearly known, but often there has been neglect, abandonment, or abuse in childhood and possibly genetic factors. Research has shown brain changes in the ability to regulate emotions. For more, read here and here. Unlike narcissists, who often avoid therapy , borderlines usually welcome it; however, before recent treatment innovations, its effectiveness had been questioned.
Today, BPD is no longer a life sentence. Studies have shown that some people recover on their own, some improve with weekly therapy, and some require hospitalization. Long-term treatment is required for maximum results, with symptom relief increasingly improving. A year study showed substantial remission after 10 years. Most individuals with BPD have another co-occurring diagnosis, such as addiction or depression. Acute symptoms diminish more readily than temperamental ones, such as anger, loneliness, and emptiness and abandonment or dependency issues.

Loving Someone with Borderline Personality Disorder
Find help or get online counseling now. To diagnose BPD, at least five of the following symptoms must be enduring and present in a variety of areas: Frantic efforts to avoid real or imagined abandonment. Unstable and intense personal relationships, marked by alternating idealization and devaluation. These might include antidepressants, mood-stabilizers, and antipsychotic medications.
If an individual with BPD experience intense symptoms, such as self-injury or physically harming others, they may be in need of inpatient treatment at a hospital or other residential program.
People with BPD benefit from a home environment that is calm and relaxed. All involved family members including a boyfriend or girlfriend should know not to discuss important issues when the individual is in crisis mode. Stop to take a breath yourself when they do become emotionally reactive. People with BPD should have opportunities to talk about their interests and thoughts about the news, family events, and other leisure activities.

Take the time to laugh at a funny joke or eat dinner together several times a week. The less an individual feels like his or her mental illness is under the spotlight, the more opportunity they have to explore other aspects of themselves. When a loved one becomes reactive, they may become to insult you or make unfair accusations.
Finding Peace Amongst the Turmoil
The natural response is to become defensive and to match the level of reactivity. They struggle to gauge what is a minor issue and what is a full blown catastrophe. They interpret your defensiveness as not being valued. Instead, when they become reactive, take the time to listen without pointing out the flaws in their argument. Try not to take it personally.

A crisis is escalating if a person with BPD begins to threaten to harm themselves. Sometimes self-harm signs may be less overt, such as scratching the skin, eating less, coloring or shaving off hair, or isolating from others. Recognizing early signs can help prevent an emotional crisis from becoming more serious or requiring medical or psychiatric attention.
Instead, you invite the individual to talk about their emotions and allow yourself to gauge whether professional assistance is necessary. | health |

One of our favorite things to hear is when a parent tells us how excited their child was to come to the office. Part of making your child feel comfortable is alleviating any anxiety that they might feel about dental treatment. Our office provides a number of different treatment methods to best meet the needs of your child.
Nitrous Oxide (laughing gas) can help alleviate mild dental anxiety
Some children have mild anxiety when they hear that they will be receiving dental treatment. We use child-friendly language and visual demonstrations of procedures to help the child feel like they are in control and to help avoid any fear of the unknown. Additionally, all of our operatories are equipped with flat screen televisions and movies to help the child feel at ease. Even with these measures some children will still feel some mild anxiety. It is in these cases where nitrous oxide, or laughing gas, can help make the appointments more pleasant. Nitrous oxide is an odorless gas that is breathed through the nose during dental treatment. While breathing nitrous oxide the patient is still fully conscious but may feel a deeper sense of calm and relaxation. Nitrous oxide can also help in patients with severe gag reflexes and the gas itself has mild anti pain properties. After the treatment is completed the patient breathes 100% oxygen, which allows them to feel back to normal. Since the effects of nitrous oxide are very short, children can even return to school after their dental treatment.
Oral Conscious Sedation can be utilized for children with moderate dental anxiety
For some patients who are very young, have moderate anxiety, or have had a history of difficult treatment appointments in the past, nitrous oxide alone may not be enough to alleviate their dental anxiety. These patients may benefit from oral conscious sedation. These patients come to their treatment appointments a little early and are given a small dose of anti anxiety medication. When the anti anxiety medication takes affect the patient is still conscious but may feel sleepy. The majority of the effect of the medication is over after an hour, but patients may feel tired throughout the day. Because of this, these patients should not return to school after treatment, but should return home until the medication has been fully metabolized by the body. | health |

The images help the radiologist guide the instruments to the exact point where the intervention is required. This could be to take tissue biopsies, and obviates the need for more invasive therapies such as traditional (open) or keyhole (laparoscopic) surgery.
Interventional Radiology is also used in pain management and allows a Radiologist to precisely position a needle when performing a steroid/anaesthetic injection into various joints or regions of the spine.
As digital imaging technologies continue to develop, more and more conditions are becoming treatable using Interventional Radiology techniques. | health |

WHAT OUR PATIENTS ARE SAYING ABOUT US
So in love with Midtown Smiles 😍 The best dental experience ever, and that’s a lot for me to say, because I hate going to the dentist. When I walked in to my 1st visit, Lacey at the front desk made me feel right at home. Then Hillary, from my previous dentist office, was there smiling her beautiful smile 😁 also making me comfortable. Next, I met Dr Watson’s assistants, Heather and Savannah, just exceptional ladies all around. Then Dr Terry Watson came in and was just so upbeat, friendly and very funny and I knew that I had found my new dentist! 🥰 I was actually in need of some serious work with my front teeth 🦷 and was super nervous 😬 about the price $$$ and the actual dental work, but was quickly put at ease by Carmen, in billing. She explained everything in great detail and made me feel comfortable with the plan, she even spoke to my mother, in order to help me out. I tried to not make this all fluffy and stuff, but I'm truly sincere in my words, if you have a need for a dentist, please call Midtown Smiles 😁 Wishing I could attach a picture of my end result, I m also in love with my smile again! Thanks guys!
June 5, 2019
Got in pretty quickly, mostly everyone seemed to be super nice. Only time i think I encountered someone slightly rude was once on the phone but I hope it was just a one time thing. I think they were aggravated because I had a question and maybe they just didn’t have time to answer it but maybe they were just having a bad day. Who knows. Besides that, everything else seemed to be pretty good! Honestly, what really and honestly stood out to me was a lovely individual named Brittany. I hadn’t met her before but she came in the room to administer another injection and she was just beyond pleasant. She honestly was the person I needed at that moment she entered the room. I was nervous and others seemed to not be as sympathetic or didn’t fully understand that I just needed someone to explain the process, answer a few concerns/questions and literally just spend a few minutes of their time. I honestly can’t commend Brittany enough for immediately understanding exactly what I needed. She went above and beyond to make sure I was fully informed, prepared, concerns addressed, etc. She was so sweet to offer to stay in the room with me (and I wish she did) but I told her I knew she probably had other people to assist with. Today I returned to pick up my replacement retainers and she greeted me with a huge smile. She asked me how I was doing and gave me a huge hug. Thank you for treating me so kindly and as if you’ve known me for years. I appreciate your awareness of individual’s needs and treating me as if I was family. You made my day today and definitely made my last visit so much more pleasant after feeling slightly like I was a burden/inconvenience to others even though they stated that I wasn’t. Despite a few very minute (minuet) unpleasant situations..my overall experience has been very positive! Thanks, Midtown Smiles, for the great experience!

Dr. Robert Rozbruch, director of the Institute for Limb Lengthening and Reconstruction at New York’s Hospital for Special Surgery, was recently featured in a story that aired on the ABC news program 20/20. The story was about a now 13-year-old boy who was rescued from the civil war in Sierra Leone in West Africa by another American surgeon and brought back to the United States for the medical treatment he needed to save his leg from osteomyelitis caused by infection from a snake bit that was never properly treated.
The boy, named Lansana, was bitten by a snake while chasing a soccer ball into the bush. With his mother dead and his father missing, an uncle abandoned Lansana at a hospital in Bo, a city in the south central portion of the country. There he stayed for nearly two years until Dr. Ian Zlotolow, an oral surgeon at the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York, visited the hospital as a medical volunteer. By this time, infection had set into his tibia resulting in massive bone loss of not only his tibia but also his entire ankle joint. Doctors in his native country recommended amputation, but Dr. Zlotolow thought a specialist like Dr. Rozbruch might be able to reconstruct the leg so he attempted to bring the boy back with him to the U.S.
After Lansana was granted a visa and allowed to return home with Dr. Zlotolow, he began to seek treatment for the boy’s leg and was referred to Dr. Rozbruch. With his right leg approximately six inches shorter than his left with a 45 degree internal rotation, Rozbruch used the Ilizarov device to gradually correct the deformity and lengthen the bone.
“We gradually pulled that piece of bone downward, towards the ankle, to fill in the defect,” Dr. Rozbruch said. “And, in that way, we were able to use the Ilizarov method to grow him new bone and essentially reconstruct his ankle and attach what was left of his leg to his foot.”
Dr. Rozbruch also performed a bone transport and ankle fusion to fill in the defect caused by the osteomyelitis. In all, Dr. Rozburch was able to lengthen the boy’s leg by 23cm through several stages of treatment. Lansana is doing well today with a stable ankle and the ability to run, play soccer and basketball. He has also been adopted by Dr. Zlotolow and Wendy Cohen.
Performing Closed Reduction in a Chronic Proximal Dislocation Following Total Hip Arthroplasty
The following case study conducted by R. Allen Butler, MD, Joseph R. Hsu, MD and Robert L. Barrack, MD, was published in the February 2006 issue of The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. To see the article in its entirety, please visit the following site: http://www.ejbjs.org/cgi/content/full/88/2/411
One of the major perioperative complications of total hip arthroplasty is dislocation. This complication was successfully treated in one patient with gradual closed reduction using the ILIZAROV distraction technique.
The patient, a 46-year-old male, underwent right total hip arthroplasty with multiple dislocations postoperatively. Six years later, radiographic evaluation revealed that the total hip replacement was dislocated posteriorly, causing 10cm of shortening. The patient complained of chronic pain in the buttock and a severe Trendelenburg gait. He walked with the use of a crutch and a 7.5cm shoe lift. Treatment options discussed included resection arthroplasty, revision surgery with residual limb-length discrepancy and soft-tissue lengthening with use of an external fixator. The patient opted for the lengthening procedure.
A spanning ILIZAROV device was placed over the right hip, and the patient was placed in the lateral decubitus position with transosseous wires proximally and half-pins distally. The patient was started on a lengthening regimen at a rapid rate of 4mm per day on the first postoperative day. The surgeons chose this rate because they were attempting to return the patient's neurovascular structures to their normal anatomic length.
After the ILIZAROV was removed, the patient was put in an abduction brace for three days followed by a hip pantaloon spica cast for eight weeks. He was then allowed to bear weight as tolerated and began physical therapy. During follow-up two years later, he was able to walk without assistive devices and had only a mild limp due to residual peroneal nerve palsy from his initial injury. Radiographs made at that time showed that the total hip replacement had remained reduced and his limbs were of equal length.
Although such procedures may have complications such as pulmonary embolism and pin-tract infections, this case was treated successfully using a rapid rate of distraction. The authors suggest educating the patient on the signs of neural irritation, as neurologic compromise can occur especially towards the end of the lengthening period. If any signs of neural irritation are noted, the distraction should be slowed or temporarily halted. The authors believe that gradual distraction with an external fixator is a viable option for the treatment of chronic dislocation following total hip arthroplasty. In this case, the treatment gave the patient a much higher level of function and equal limb lengths while avoiding an open procedure. | health |

Your doctor recommends osteotomy to correct distal radius malunion when non-surgical options such as splinting or physical therapy are unsuccessful.
Trapeziectomy is a surgical procedure to treat a medical condition called “thumb base arthritis”. The procedure involves removal of a small, cube-shaped bone known as the “trapezium” at the base of the thumb joint which joins your thumb to your wrist.
The hand is one of the most flexible and useful parts of our body. Because of overuse in various activities, the hands are more prone to injuries, such as sprains and strains, fractures and dislocations, lacerations and amputations while operating machinery, bracing against a fall and sports-related injuries.
Total wrist arthrodesis, also known as wrist fusion, is a surgical procedure in which the wrist joint is stabilized or immobilized by fusing the forearm bone (radius) with the small bones of the wrist.
When you suffer an injury during sports events, never try to continue the activity in pain because it may cause further harm. Some injuries may require prompt attention by a doctor, while others can be treated at home.
Finger joint fusion is performed under local or general anesthesia and usually takes about 2 hours to complete. A cut is made over the back of the finger joint and the soft tissues and nerves are carefully moved aside to expose the damaged joint.
The joint located at the base of the thumb is known as the carpometacarpal (CMC) joint. The thumb CMC joint is where the metacarpal bone of the thumb connects to the trapezium (carpal) bone of the wrist.
The forearm is made up of two bones, the radius and ulna. A break in both or either of the bones is known as forearm fracture. Forearm fractures can occur near the wrist, near the elbow, or in the middle of the forearm.
The forearm consists of two bones, the radius and ulna. The radius is the larger of the two forearm bones, and the region towards the wrist is called the distal end. A fracture or break in the distal end of the radius bone is known as a distal radius fracture.
A finger joint implant is an artificial joint made of metal, plastic, or pyrocarbon components that are used to replace a severely arthritic or injured finger joint. Finger implant surgery is a motion-preserving alternative to finger joint fusion surgery.
Nerve decompression of the upper extremities, also called peripheral nerve decompression, is a minimally invasive surgical procedure employed to relieve pressure on an entrapped or pinched nerve (neuroma) for the treatment of conditions such as carpal tunnel syndrome and cubital tunnel syndrome, the two most common nerve compression syndromes. | health |

Our mission is to provide clients with the attention, dedication and time he or she requires and deserves.
In 2011, St. Jude Medical issued a recall on the Eon Implantable Pulse Generator and the Mini version of the same. If you’ve experienced side effects associated with either of these defective devices, you no doubt have questions.
The defective medical device lawyers of the Nagelberg Bernard Law Group Law Group are currently looking into the possibility of pursuing legal action on behalf of those individuals who have been injured by the since-recalled Eon Mini and Eon Implantable Pulse Generator from St. Jude Medical. If you’ve suffered injuries after being implanted with one of these devices, our attorneys would like to hear from you.
Persons who suffer from neurological disorders often experience intense pain, and for a long time the only recourse was to provide medication to help a patient get through the day. St. Jude developed the IPG as a means to treat the pain a different way: the implant transmits an electrical pulse that triggers endorphins which reduce the pain.
Unfortunately, the battery that was supposed to have a lengthy lifespan can develop internal cracks, a condition which can cause early failure or excessive heat at the implant site. At the time of a recall in May 2011, St. Jude attributed the cracking to moisture seeping inside the battery unit. In July of 2012, however, the company changed its tune, blaming the failure on a problem with third party tools used during the battery’s production.
The impact this has had on patients cannot be underestimated. When the recall was issued, 214 of the 34,617 people who had been implanted with the Eon or Eon Mini had filed a complaint with the device, and that number has risen even higher in the time since.
Persons implanted with this defective device can experience a buildup of heat. When failure occurs, it’s likely that a surgery will be required to remove the implant. But this also poses complications. The following is a list of some of the side effects of an Eon IPG failure and subsequent explant procedure:
If you were the recipient of an Eon device, it’s important that you understand the situation and know the steps to take should you ever experience the side effects described above. Our medical malpractice lawyers are willing to offer a free consultation to persons adversely affected by these devices, and if you fit that bill, give us a call. The Nagelberg Bernard Law Group Law Group is currently determining the legal remedies available for such parties. It’s possible that you could be entitled to reimbursement of medical expenses and the pain and suffering you’ve endured.

Lipodissolve is a specialize form of Mesotherapy that uses a natural soy-based extract called phosphatidylcholine. When this extract is injected into the problem area it breaks apart the fat molecule dissolving it into a liquid that is naturally eliminated from the body. The soybean extract has the same molecular structure as the phosphatidylcholine found in the human body, and its main function is to break down fat and cholesterol.
LipoDissolve is often used for bodysculpting as an alternative to liposuction.
LipoDissolve can shrink:
- belly fat
- double chins
- bra bulge
As a cellulite treatment LipoDissolve has no rivals. Cottage cheese and dimpling fade away. Many believe LipoDissolve to be far, far superior to any laser treatment.
LipoDissolve and Mesotherapy are not new procedures. Mesotherapy has actually been performed in Europe for over 50 years. It was developed by the French physician Michel Pistor, M.D. to treat a variety of health issues. Over the course of time, his colleagues in both Europe and South America discovered that mesotherapy was amazingly effective in handling cosmetic problems formally confined to the field of plastic and cosmetic surgery.
Unlike liposuction, only the fat (not the fat cell) is removed. Some patients can lose two to six inches in their saddle bags, hips, thighs, waist, love handles, back fat and chin when medications are placed in those areas.
Prior to a LipoDissolve session, the area to be treated will be mapped. Once the area is mapped, the site is cleansed. During the procedure a medical professional uses a very short and thin needle to make multiple injections into the targeted area.
Unlike surgery, LipoDissolve is practically painless. Patients have typically responded that the treatments cause less pain than a momentary, light pinch. There are no heavy bandages or girdles that need to be worn and one can resume work with relatively no downtime.
Adults in good health between the ages of 18 - 75 are excellent LipoDissolve candidates for targeted weight reduction and cellulite elimination.
Since the medications used in LipoDissolve are naturally occurring in the body, there is little concern about absorption of the medications into the body and there have been no reports of serious side effects from LipoDissolve, when administered properly, despite its widespread use. Swelling, redness and tenderness of the area injected are the only reported adverse effects and these vary according to the area injected.

by Jenny Harrow-Keeler | April 1, 2017
Research conducted over the last 30 years demonstrates that forest bathing is not only one of the most accessible ways to get in touch with the natural world, but also one of the most simple ways to lower excessive stress levels The Japanese authors of the Therapeutic Effects of Forests document the physiological measurements of autonomic nervous system activity and show how stress levels can be reduced through walks in a forest. Results confirm that participants who walked in a forest versus those who walked in an urban environment had a more activated parasympathetic nervous system, which allows the body to adapt and recover from stress. Participants also displayed a less activated sympathetic nervous system, the mechanism responsible for triggering the “fight or flight” stress response Field studies show that salivary cortisol concentration is significantly lower in those who participated in forest bathing when compared to those exposed to an urban environment. Several previous studies have demonstrated that lower levels of stress result in lower concentrations of cortisol.
There are several components of forest bathing that provide stimulation to the senses and contribute to stress reduction: the smells, sights, sounds, tastes and textures of the forest all promote healing in unique and seemingly subtle ways. Phytoncides, the essential oils trees emit to protect themselves from germs and insects, can be emitted from many types of plants, trees, and some fruits and vegetables, and can decrease cortisol, reduce anxiety, increase pain threshold, increase natural killer cells, lower blood pressure, and have antibacterial properties. Research demonstrates that nature sounds, such as birds chirping and running water, promote sympathetic nervous system recovery after a stressful incident more quickly than urban environment sounds. Electroencephalogram (EEG) data indicates that subjects who viewed nature "had greater brain electrical activity in the alpha frequency range. High alpha amplitude is associated with lower level of physiological arousal as well as feeling of wakeful relaxation” (Berto, 2014, p.400). Psychologist, researcher and architect Roger Ulrich's infamous study on postoperative gallbladder surgery patients demonstrated that patients with a view of nature from their hospital window recovered quicker, were in less pain and were described by nurses’ as having better a attitude than patients who had a view of a brick wall (Ulrich, 1984).
Tsunetsugu et al. (2010) report on previous work, which shows how interior and wooden objects elicit favorable emotional responses compared to other natural or man-made materials. Mao et al. (2012b) also investigated the qualitative properties of wood experienced by participants and found positive reactions. Researchers, therefore, hypothesize that the touch and feel of wood within the forest environment is also likely to contribute to the overall impact of forest bathing.
By opening up all fives senses in nature, the physiological responses of the human body can promote recovery from stressful situations.
Stress regulation has a tremendous impact on an individual’s overall health and wellbeing. Our perception of stress, our mental state, our immunity, our happiness, and our resiliency are all chemically influenced by the nervous system and its response to the natural environment.The Therapeutic Effects of Forests study provided additional research that forest bathing can significantly lower levels of systolic and diastolic blood pressure. Further physiological benefits of spending time in nature include increased serotonin levels, decreased feelings of anger, a greater sense of joy and happiness, increased activity in parahippocampal gyrus region of brain, and improved quality of sleep. Research supports that time spent in nature can lower inflammatory markers, increase natural killer cells and anticancer proteins by up to 40%, that hospital patients with view of nature heal quicker than those with view of a brick wall, sunlight exposure increases white blood cell production, which boosts immune system and red blood cells, and can also increase one’s oxygen-carrying capacity. | health |

It is useful to distinguish between two basic types of pain, acute and chronic, and they differ greatly.
Acute pain, for the most part, results from disease, inflammation, or injury to tissues. This type of pain generally comes on suddenly, for example, after trauma or surgery, and may be accompanied by anxiety or emotional distress. The cause of acute pain can usually be diagnosed and treated, and the pain is self-limiting, that is, it is confined to a given period of time and severity. In some rare instances, it can become chronic. (Source: National Institutes of Health)
Chronic pain is widely believed to represent disease itself. It can be made much worse by environmental and psychological factors. Chronic pain persists over a longer period of time than acute pain and is resistant to most medical treatments. It can—and often does—cause severe problems for patients. A person may have two or more co-existing chronic pain conditions. Such conditions can include chronic fatigue syndrome, endometriosis, musculoskeletal pain, fibromyalgia, inflammatory bowel disease, myofascial pain, interstitial cystitis, surgical pain, temporomandibular joint dysfunction, and vulvodynia. It is not known whether these disorders share a common cause.(Source: National Institutes of Health)
Additionally, research has shown that in some cases, opioid medications themselves can contribute to and worsen chronic pain. Journal of Opioid Management. 2008 May-Jun; 4(3):123-30.
The A to Z of Pain
The spectrum of pain is immense. There are the most benign, fleeting sensations of pain, such as a pin prick. There is the pain of childbirth, the pain of a heart attack, and the pain that sometimes follows amputation of a limb. There is also pain accompanying cancer and the pain that follows severe trauma, such as that associated with head and spinal cord injuries. Below is a sampling of common pain syndromes follows, listed alphabetically.
A condition in which one of the three membranes covering the brain and spinal cord, called the arachnoid membrane, becomes inflamed. A number of causes, including infection or trauma, can result in inflammation of this membrane. Arachnoiditis can produce disabling, progressive, and even permanent pain.
Millions of Americans suffer from arthritic conditions such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and gout. These disorders are characterized by joint pain in the extremities. Many other inflammatory diseases affect the body’s soft tissues, including tendonitis and bursitis.
Has become the high price paid by our modern lifestyle and is a startlingly common cause of disability for many Americans, including both active and inactive people. Back pain that spreads to the leg is called sciatica and is a very common condition (see below). Another common type of back pain is associated with the discs of the spine, the soft, spongy padding between the vertebrae (bones) that form the spine. Discs protect the spine by absorbing shock, but they tend to degenerate over time and may sometimes rupture. Spondylolisthesis is a back condition that occurs when one vertebra extends over another, causing pressure on nerves and therefore pain. Also, damage to nerve roots is a serious condition, called radiculopathy, that can be extremely painful.

Can be profound and poses an extreme challenge to the medical community. First-degree burns are the least severe; with third-degree burns, the skin is lost. Depending on the injury, pain accompanying burns can be excruciating, and even after the wound has healed patients may have chronic pain at the burn site.
Can accompany the growth of a tumor, the treatment of cancer, or chronic problems related to cancer’s permanent effects on the body. Fortunately, most cancer pain can be treated to help minimize discomfort and stress to the patient.
Headaches affect millions of Americans. The three most common types of chronic headache are migraines, cluster headaches, and tension headaches. Each comes with its own telltale brand of pain. Migraines are characterized by throbbing pain and sometimes by other symptoms, such as nausea and visual disturbances. Migraines are more frequent in women than men. Stress can trigger a migraine headache, and migraines can also put the sufferer at risk for stroke. Cluster headaches are characterized by excruciating, piercing pain on one side of the head; they occur more frequently in men than women. Tension headaches are often described as a tight band around the head. Read more – Severe Headache and Migraine, Cervicogenic Migraines and Myofascial Trigger Points
Head and facial pain
Can be agonizing, whether it results from dental problems or from disorders such as cranial neuralgia, in which one of the nerves in the face, head, or neck is inflamed. Another condition, trigeminal neuralgia (also called tic douloureux), affects the largest of the cranial nerves and is characterized by a stabbing, shooting pain.
Can range from an aching muscle, spasm, or strain, to the severe spasticity that accompanies paralysis. Another disabling syndrome is fibromyalgia, a disorder characterized by non-restorative sleep causing fatigue, stiffness, cognitive dysfunction, and widespread muscle pain. Polymyositis, dermatomyositis, and inclusion body myositis are painful disorders characterized by muscle inflammation. They may be caused by infection or autoimmune dysfunction and are sometimes associated with connective tissue disorders, such as lupus and rheumatoid arthritis.
Myofascial pain syndrome
A disabling condition characterized by knotted up pieces of muscle fiber called trigger points that radiate pain and other symptoms in a predictable pattern. Trigger points can be easily felt by the patient and examiner unless they are beneath bone or in deep muscles, in which case their location is identified by the pain referral pattern. It often coexists with fibromyalgia, making diagnosis more difficult. Myofascial pain syndrome is best treated with specific myofascial therapies, including myofascial trigger point therapy and trigger point injections.
A type of pain that can result from injury to nerves, either in the peripheral or central nervous system. Neuropathic pain can occur in any part of the body and is frequently described as a hot, burning sensation, which can be devastating to the affected individual. It can result from diseases that affect nerves (such as diabetes) or from trauma, or, because chemotherapy drugs can affect nerves, it can be a consequence of cancer treatment. Among the many neuropathic pain conditions are diabetic neuropathy (which results from nerve damage secondary to vascular problems that occur with diabetes); reflex sympathetic dystrophy syndrome (see below), which can follow injury; phantom limb and post-amputation pain, which can result from the surgical removal of a limb; postherpetic neuralgia, which can occur after an outbreak of shingles; and central pain syndrome, which can result from trauma to the brain or spinal cord.
Reflex sympathetic dystrophy syndrome (RSDS)
RSDS is accompanied by burning pain and hypersensitivity to temperature. Often triggered by trauma or nerve damage, RSDS causes the skin of the affected area to become characteristically shiny. In recent years, RSDS has come to be called complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS); in the past it was often called causalgia.
Repetitive stress injuries
Are muscular conditions that result from repeated motions performed in the course of normal work or other daily activities. They include: * writer’s cramp, which affects musicians and writers and others, * compression or entrapment neuropathies, including carpal tunnel syndrome, caused by chronic overextension of the wrist and * tendonitis or tenosynovitis, affecting one or more tendons.
A painful condition caused by pressure on the sciatic nerve, the main nerve that branches off the spinal cord and continues down into the thighs, legs, ankles, and feet. Sciatica is characterized by pain in the buttocks and can be caused by a number of factors. Exertion, obesity, and poor posture can all cause pressure on the sciatic nerve. One common cause of sciatica is a herniated disc.
Shingles and other painful disorders affect the skin. Pain is a common symptom of many skin disorders, even the most common rashes. One of the most vexing neurological disorders is shingles or herpes zoster, an infection that often causes agonizing pain resistant to treatment. Prompt treatment with antiviral agents is important to arrest the infection, which if prolonged can result in an associated condition known as postherpetic neuralgia. Other painful disorders affecting the skin include: * vasculitis, or inflammation of blood vessels; * other infections, including herpes simplex; * skin tumors and cysts, and * tumors associated with neurofibromatosis, a neurogenetic disorder.
Refers to a narrowing of the canal surrounding the spinal cord. The condition occurs naturally with aging. Spinal stenosis causes weakness in the legs and leg pain usually felt while the person is standing up and often relieved by sitting down.
Sprains, strains, bruises, dislocations, and fractures are all well-known words in the language of sports. Pain is another. In extreme cases, sports injuries can take the form of costly and painful spinal cord and head injuries, which cause severe suffering and disability.
Are conditions in which the temporomandibular joint (the jaw) is damaged and/or the muscles used for chewing and talking become stressed, causing pain. The condition may be the result of a number of factors, such as an injury to the jaw or joint misalignment, and may give rise to a variety of symptoms, most commonly pain in the jaw, face, and/or neck muscles. Physicians reach a diagnosis by listening to the patient’s description of the symptoms and by performing a simple examination of the facial muscles and the temporomandibular joint.
Trauma can occur after injuries in the home, at the workplace, during sports activities, or on the road. Any of these injuries can result in severe disability and pain. Some patients who have had an injury to the spinal cord experience intense pain ranging from tingling to burning and, commonly, both. Such patients are sensitive to hot and cold temperatures and touch. For these individuals, a touch can be perceived as intense burning, indicating abnormal signals relayed to and from the brain. This condition is called central pain syndrome or, if the damage is in the thalamus (the brain’s center for processing bodily sensations), thalamic pain syndrome. It affects as many as 100,000 Americans with multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, amputated limbs, spinal cord injuries, and stroke. Their pain is severe and is extremely difficult to treat effectively.
Vascular disease or injury-such as vasculitis or inflammation of blood vessels, coronary artery disease, and circulatory problems-all have the potential to cause pain. Vascular pain affects millions of Americans and occurs when communication between blood vessels and nerves is interrupted. Ruptures, spasms, constriction, or obstruction of blood vessels, as well as a condition called ischemia in which blood supply to organs, tissues, or limbs is cut off, can also result in pain.
Primary Source: National Institutes of Health; Muscle and Myofascial pain definitions adapted from Integrative Therapies for Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, and Myofascial Pain: The Mind-Body Connection
Pain that comes on quickly, can be severe, but lasts a relatively short time.
A primary, chronic, neurobiologic disease whose development and manifestations are influenced by genetic, psychosocial, and environmental factors. It is characterized by behavior that includes one or more of the following: impaired control over drug use, compulsive use, continued use despite harm, and craving.
Pain due to a stimulus that does not normally provoke pain.
The cumulative physiological cost to the body of chronic exposure to the stress response.
Absence of pain in response to a stimulus that would normally be painful.
Assumptions about reality that shape the interpretation of events and, consequently, the appraisal of pain.
A framework that accounts for the biological, psychological, and social dimensions of illness and disease. The biopsychosocial model provides a basis for the understanding and treatment of disease, taking into account the patient, his/her social context, and the impact of illness on that individual from a societal perspective. The model states that ill health and disease are the result of interaction among biological, psychological, and social factors.
Ongoing or recurrent pain lasting beyond the usual course of acute illness or injury or, generally, more than 3 to 6 months and adversely affecting the individual’s well-being. A simpler definition for chronic or persistent pain is pain that continues when it should not.
An empirically supported treatment focusing on patterns of thinking that are maladaptive and the beliefs that underlie such thinking. Cognitive-behavioral therapy is based on the idea that our thoughts, not external factors, such as people, situations, and events, cause our feelings and behavior. As a result, we can change the way we think to improve the way we feel, even if the situation does not change.
Increased pain from a stimulus that normally provokes pain.
Refers to efforts in which professionals from several disciplines combine their professional expertise and understanding to solve a problem.
Proposes that pain is a multidimensional experience produced by characteristic “neurosignature” patterns of nerve impulses generated by a widely distributed neural network—the “body-self neuromatrix”—in the brain. These neurosignature patterns may be triggered by sensory inputs, but they may also be generated independently of them
Pain caused by a lesion or disease of the somatosensory nervous system.
The neural processes of encoding and processing noxious stimuli.
Any compound that binds to an opioid receptor. Includes the opioid drugs (agonist analgesics and antagonists) and the endogenous opioid peptides.
An unpleasant sensory and emotional experience associated with actual or potential tissue damage, or described in terms of such damage.
An individual’s tendency to focus on and exaggerate the threat value of painful stimuli and negatively evaluate his/her ability to deal with pain.
Pain subjectively localized in one region although due to irritation in another.
Beliefs that individuals hold about their capability to carry out actions in a way that will influence the events that affect their lives.
An increased response of neurons to a variety of inputs following intense or noxius stimuli.

It is very important for dancers to replace fluids lost by sweating in order to keep their bodies well hydrated. Even dehydration in its most mild form can negatively affect performance. Did you know that by the time you feel thirsty you are actually already dehydrated? Ideally, a dancer should drink before, during and after a ballroom dance or performance. But is water the best thing to drink? Sometimes your body may need more than water. Energy drinks are designed to replace key electrolytes throughout the body, but not all sports drinks are created equal. Make sure you are drinking the best type of drink for your needs.
What Are Sports Drinks?
Sports drinks contain electrolytes and carbohydrates. They are beverages that help replace water, electrolytes, and energy after training or competing. Sports drinks help keep you hydrated and provide fuel for long or intense ballroom dance.
There are three major types of sports drinks:
- Isotonic: contain similar concentrations of salt and sugar as in the human body
- Hypertonic: contain a higher concentration of salt and sugar than the human body
- Hypotonic: contain a lower concentration of salt and sugar than the human body
Some studies have determined that sports drinks are unnecessary unless activity exceeds 60-90 minutes.
Electrolytes and Sugar
Electrolytes are important for the human body to function smoothly. Besides helping muscles and nerves to function correctly, they also help maintain the water balance inside of cells and keep the blood’s pH balanced. When a dancer sweats during a long, intense class, water and electrolytes are lost. If you are working hard in a dance classes for more than an hour, you might consider a drink to help replace electrolytes lost through heavy sweating. Gatorade and Powerade are two drinks to look for.
If you are having a hard time making it through an intense day of dance, you may need a bit of sugar to give you a boost. Many sports drinks claim to provide you with instant energy, due to the sugar contained in them. But be careful when you pick out a drink…your body doesn’t need more sugar than it can use. Look for a drink with no more than 14 grams of sugar per serving, because more than that amount can upset your stomach. Skip sugar-free drinks because those may contain added caffeine to replace the sugar. A good choice is coconut water or natural fruit juice diluted with water.
What Should You Drink?
There really is no “best” beverage for all dancers to consume during the day. Since every dancer’s fluid needs are unique, how much fluid you need is specific to your own body. However, in order to prevent dehydration, the average person needs to consume about 2 liters or 8 glasses of fluid every day, preferably with at lest half of that amount being in the form of plain water. If you have a particularly long day of dancing, your body will require more.
But what is the best beverage for you to drink? Remember that sports drinks should only be consumed in order to replace electrolytes during or after long, intense workouts. Don’t make a sports drink your main drink of the day…make sure to stick a water bottle in your dance bag to sip on throughout the day. When you feel like you might need a quick boost, sip on a sports drink or diluted fruit juice. Keep in mind that sports drinks aren’t magical…sometimes simply staying hydrated is best accomplished with good, plain water. | health |

This is not true. Studies have compared the practice patterns of nurse practitioners with those of physicians and determined that nurse practitioners performed as well as physicians in all areas of primary care delivery and patient outcomes.
The Federal Trade Commission states that “a growing body of evidence suggests that APRNs (nurses with at least a master’s degree in nursing) can, based on their education and training, safely perform many of the same procedures and services provided by physicians.” I have personally observed that quality education and superior mentors produce excellent professionals in the field.
Battistella anticipates an increase in opioid prescriptions if nurse practitioners and physician assistants gain independent full-practice authority. He forgets that all providers must follow prescription guidelines or risk both losing professional licensing status and facing criminal charges.
He urged lawmakers to “take a step back and consider the unintended consequences that these proposals would have on their constituents.” In response, I say, “I’ve got an APP for that.”
Unfortunately, the current health care environment fails to recognize the value of advanced practice providers (APPs), and this results in underutilization. For our health care system to become not only efficient but also effective, it needs to be intellectually honest concerning the benefits that such providers offer.
American life has adapted to the changing health care environment and, were it not for the polarized fight over health care, the use of APPs would have kept pace as well. Throughout the national debate, two situations have remained constant: the shortage of primary care physicians and an underutilization of APPs.
The United States has nearly 250,000 licensed nurse practitioners and almost 125,000 licensed physician assistants. If properly utilized, the solution to the health care crisis already exists.
The challenge is for APPs to clarify the quality of the care and recognize the scope of the specialties within the profession, thus optimizing the value that an APP provides. By implementing reliable standard measurements, APPs can be a beneficial part of the solution.
The midterm elections made it clear that health care is a major concern. There is general agreement that a successful health care system must have universality, quality and affordability. Properly utilized, advanced practice providers can be the key to having all three. Allow APP programs to grow through clinical experience, mentorship and increased collaboration with physicians, as well as increased autonomy, and what will emerge will be step one in neutralizing the primary care physician shortage. | health |

I have the same daily challenges as you but with one difference. I struggle to have random conversations with people so avoid them, I can be socially awkward, I am withdrawn so I don’t join in on social occasions. All of this leads people to think that I am weird or rude. To me it is just another day in the life of a PTS sufferer.
“Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a mental disorder that can develop after a person is exposed to a traumatic event, such as sexual assault, warfare, traffic collisions, or other threats on a person’s life.” Wikipedia
I prefer to call it an injury than a disorder because I believe, and so does the clever people, that it all stems from nine years as a police officer in South Africa.
Of my time served I spent about seven-an-a-half years in Durban Flying Squad, then one of the top uniformed units in the Durban area. I am not going to go into detail of the work but it is suffice to say that we worked hard to bring down crime and that meant criminals worked hard to remove us.
It was about two years ago when I started noticing a different pattern in my life. I was more irritable, struggled with excess weight and controlling my eating habits, I started having more nightmares and could be transported back to a scene in broad daylight whilst sitting in a meeting.
“I started noticing a different pattern in my life. I was more irritable, struggled with weight and I started having nightmares. It was very real and troubling”
It was very real and troubling. At first I didn’t say anything because I felt that most of my friends would either not understand or would want me to tell them more about my life in uniform, something I try to avoid nowadays. This continued for about a year.
I spoke to my wife as I thought she would understand. She was very supportive because she lived with me through the uniformed years and knew what I went through. We decided that I need to speak to someone, which was he next big step for me. I consulted my local GP who referred me to an NHS hospital for mental illness from an assessment.
In the mean time I started running for weight loss but quickly realised that the loss I was expecting wasn’t always there. What I did experience though is a type of happiness or euphoria after, and often during, a run.
I started to do some research and read about exercise and endorphins and its positive influence on people with mental health problems. The psychologist that did my assessment also confirmed that exercise is a very good way for me to manage my symptoms.
“Since my diagnosis in 2016 I have focused a lot more on using exercise to manage my symptoms. What I have achieved is a healthier life with no need for medication”
Since my official diagnosis in mid 2016 I have focused a lot more on using exercise to manage my symptoms. I do a fair bit of running and cycling and try to make the odd visit to the gym with my son.
I never shifted all the weight I wanted to get rid off but that is probably because eating is also still a coping mechanism for me and one that I try and deal with every day.
What I have achieved though is a healthier life with no need for medication. Yes, sometimes depression and doubt take control and I have to fight hard within myself to get through those days but I know, if I can strap on a pair of training shoes and go for a run I will start to feel better.
This year (2017) I decided to do something to help a mental health charity and as a result entered into a number of events to help raise money. Support in Mind Scotland is my chosen charity because they are local and do a lot of good work not just for those with PTSD but for all classifications of mental illness.
I still have three events left for the year. A cycle ride from Glasgow to Edinburgh, a half marathon and I will finish the year off with a 10k in Edinburgh.

Chantele has been undergoing pioneering treatment for secondary metastatic breast cancer since July 2014, when her initial cancer returned shortly after receiving her one year all clear.
Offered a drug called 'Kadcyla' initially through the Cancer Care Fund, this drug faced the threat of withdrawal due to a lack of funds. However through tireless campaigning led by Breast Cancer Now as well as Chantele and the 'BC' girls, 'Kadcyla' is now available through the NHS.
On the 20 August 2020 Chantele received her 100th Kadcyla treatment, over 5 years of successful ongoing treatment, with many more to come.
Back in 2014, whilst still undergoing treatment, Chantele organised the first 'Clifftop Challenge' with her husband Phil. A 55 mile run from Hastings to Deal along the entire coastline, with various other distances for all abilities and a day of entertainment and fundraising activities.

We all intuitively understand the importance of good health to our ability to enjoy life and have a productive career. The better your mental and physical wellness, the higher your energy level, productivity and capacity to perform in whatever role you choose. Since this is so obvious to all of us, it is amazing how few people actively follow a healthy lifestyle.
There are a large number of factors causing health problems all around us — stress at work, demands at home, and pressure from your peers as well as advertisers constantly urging you to eat, drink and smoke something that is probably bad for you. On top of this, we are subjected to an increasing bombardment of “noise” and information overload from all types of media and other sources, including personal computers, e-mail, cellphones and a myriad of new handheld electronic devices.
News flash! You have to fight back and take active responsibility for your own mental and physical wellness. You must find the determination within yourself to make healthy habits an essential part of your daily and weekly routine. It is foolish to take a passive approach to maintaining your health and fitness.
To enjoy both mental and physical wellness, follow these recommendations:
- Get into a regular regimen of some form of exercise a minimum of three to four times a week for the rest of your life. This can be bicycling, playing a sport, tai chi, going to a gym, hiking, walking, yoga, swimming, Pilates, whatever, but you just have to get off your butt and do it. Regular exercise not only keeps you physically fit and mentally alert, it is also a great stress-buster and helps you sleep better. It is not necessary or even desirable to become a fitness fanatic, just to experience the equivalent of the mental and physical whirlpool you get from engaging in some form of exercise on a regular basis.
- Initiate the habit of setting aside a quiet period for yourself at a regular time once or twice a week for the purpose of doing some quiet thinking on your own. When you do so, turn off and unplug everything that can disrupt your peace of mind. Pick a place where you will not be bothered with any distractions. Calm yourself down and muse about what is really important in terms of what is happening in your life. Try to use this time quietly to get things into proper perspective and gain a better understanding of your true priorities. Think of this as a way of keeping your sanity while everyone around you is losing theirs.
- Make having fun and laughter an integral part of almost everything you do. Use humor to relieve stress and tension. Avoid taking yourself and what you are doing too seriously. It is also essential that your friends and co-workers have a good sense of humor to help you keep things in perspective and see the funny side of life’s challenges.
- Try to maintain a healthy posture whenever you are in a sitting position and not just when you are working at your desk. This can be done by rolling your shoulders back, elongating your spine, tilting the top of your pelvis forward and straightening your neck. Many back and neck pains are caused by failing to sit properly for long periods of time. (See the section on Posture in Chapter 1, Your Physical Presence, of the Citizen of the World Guide, Make the Right Impression.)
- Recognize the serious harm you are doing to yourself when you engage in self-destructive behavior, including over-eating, drinking too much alcohol, and using drugs. When you treat your body badly, it ultimately will treat you badly. There are many forms of harmful addictions but in the end they all take over control of your life with disastrous consequences. The brief pleasure or “high” from such behavior is never worth the long-term pain you will inevitably experience yourself and inflict upon those around you.
- Inform yourself about any negative health issues of consequence that you experience beyond just relying 100% on what your doctors say. Do an Internet search on the disease or injury to find other sources of information. See if the site www.PatientsLikeMe.com has any valuable information covering your ailment. If you start having adverse side effects from taking a prescribed medication, conduct an online search for the name of the drug and look for medical sites with patient forums on them to learn if others are having the same problem, indicating you should stop taking this medication.
- Maintain your own separate medical records for your family and yourself. Include in that record the date and details of any operations, injuries, illnesses of consequence and tests performed. Also note any prescriptions taken, drug allergies and the various services received from doctors and other health-care providers. Do not rely on your doctor to keep proper records of these matters. Having such information available in an emergency may save your life.
In many respects, “you are what you eat”. The quality, variety and quantity of what you eat on a daily basis have a huge impact on your overall wellness, including your mental agility and energy level. Here are some easy steps to follow for a healthier lifestyle:
- If you bring it home, you will likely eat it. Leave the unhealthy impulse items in the grocery store, especially those high in fat or sugar. Always shop with a list of things you need and stick to that list.
- Eat a reasonable breakfast every day to give your body and mind the fuel they need to function well for the start of your day.
- Have three meals at a regular time daily. The later you eat in the evening, the lighter the meal should be.
- Consume a minimum of four full servings of fruit and vegetables each day, including salads. Have some fruit and vegetables with every meal. Most frozen fruit and vegetables are as good for you as fresh ones.
- Ideally, include a source of lean protein with every meal. A deck-of-cards sized portion (e.g., 3 ounces), however, is usually sufficient for any serving of protein foods, maybe 1 1/2 for larger men.
- Eat a variety of foods on a regular basis, including those served with herbs, spices, seeds, nuts, legumes, root vegetables, whole grains, tomatoes, carrots, sweet potatoes, spinach and kale.
- Limit yourself to one caffeine drink a day and avoid drinking anything with caffeine in the late afternoon or evening.
For many reasons, it is also important to stay hydrated throughout the day. This requires you to drink a minimum of eight to ten glasses of water and other fluids daily apart from anything that is high in caffeine, sugar or alcohol. Carbonated drinks, coffee, beer, wine and any mixed liquor drinks do not count. Watch out for the calories, however, in any fruit and vegetable drinks.
To function effectively, your body needs to maintain proper fluid levels. Recent studies indicate that up to 85% of headaches are caused by dehydration. Proper hydration also can lower or even eliminate pain and cramping.
Changing your eating habits is the only permanent solution for dealing with an overweight problem. Close to 100% of the people who lose weight through any kind of diet program or taking diet supplements invariably regain all of the weight back. To lose weight you have to eat less. It is that simple.
To gain an appreciation of the stress that being overweight places on your body, try carrying around a weight in your hand roughly equivalent to how much you are overweight. If you are ten or more pounds overweight, you will not last long doing so.
Here are some of the most important steps to take to shed unwanted pounds and then to maintain your weight at a healthy level:
- Spread out the amount of food you eat throughout the day by having three regular modest-sized meals and two healthy snacks in between them as opposed to starving yourself through part of the day and ending up overeating a large dinner as a result of being too hungry.
- Reduce the size of the portions you serve and eat for each course, and never have seconds. Use smaller plates to serve your food and smaller glasses for everything you drink other than water. When you go to a restaurant, order an appetizer for your main dish. Skip eating bread with your meals and having any prepared desserts.
- Eat slower by pausing after every one or two bites. The slower you eat, the more time your stomach has to register when it is actually full.
- Restrict to a minimum the amount of fatty food and drinks you consume, such as French fries, other fried foods, potato chips, sugar-sweetened soft drinks, candies, prepared desserts and processed meats. When you get the urge to snack, have some fruit. You will be surprised at how much small changes in your eating habits will add up to big improvements in your weight over time.
Change how you think about food if you have a weight problem. As the photographer Russ Fischella said, “Eat what your body needs, not what your mind wants.” If you are overweight, do something about it. Being in denial when you have a weight problem is definitely dangerous to your health and overall well-being.
The most common health complaint is probably, “I’m having difficulty sleeping and it’s badly affecting my … .” Everyone seems to know that getting a full night’s sleep on a regular basis is essential to maintaining one’s overall wellness, recharging one’s batteries, and performing well at whatever one does. Yet, for some mysterious reason people prefer to spend billions on sleeping pills (that rarely work that well) rather than adopt sensible sleep habits.
There is a big downside to failing to get an adequate amount of sleep on a regular basis. As journalist Jane E. Brody stated in a recent New York Times article, failing to do so at any time in one’s life from infancy to old age “can profoundly affect memory, learning, creativity, productivity and emotional stability, as well as your physical health” and cause harm to a number of bodily organs and systems, including “the heart, lungs and kidneys, metabolism, immune function and mental processes” (such as judgment and decision making).
The actual amount of sleep one needs varies depending on one’s health, age, daily physical pursuits and occupation. Most adults need a minimum of six to eight hours sleep nightly. Some people also benefit from having an afternoon nap. But for everyone, Arianna Huffington believes that “the way to a more productive, more inspired, more joyful life is getting enough sleep”.
Sleep researchers have discovered that each night we cycle in and out of various stages of light to deep sleep, each lasting about 90 minutes. Brody describes these stages as “REM, or rapid-eye-movement sleep (often called dream sleep), and three types of non-REM sleep: the light sleep of Stage 1, followed by the more relaxed sleep of Stage 2 and the most restorative deep sleep of Stage 3”. When you are in Stage 2 and 3 sleep, your mind is probably quietly sorting through and filing away all the information and thoughts you experienced in the waking hours of the prior day. This is also when your mind likely does its best cognitive work, hence the saying “sleep on it”.
Yes, high stress, negative relationships, being in debt, the demands of parenting, travel and illness can all impede one’s ability to sleep properly. But, there are many simple things you can do to improve your chances of having a good night’s sleep on a regular basis. Here are some recommendations for doing so:
- Try to go to bed each night at approximately the same time. This will condition your body’s “clock” to expect to go to sleep at a regular time every evening. Similarly, try to get out of bed at about the same time every morning, regardless of how late you went to bed the night before.
- Adopt a regular routine every night starting about one hour before going to bed that involves something of a relaxing nature such as light reading, calming music, a warm bath, meditation or writing a journal. Do anything at that time that helps your mind and body in effect decompress. Go into denial mode about anything that causes you to get upset or excessively worry during the day.
- Avoid eating or drinking anything in large amounts two hours before going to bed. Your stomach and digestive system need time to settle down and you do not want to have to spend the night getting up to go to the bathroom.
- Do not have any caffeine drinks from about 4:00 PM onward and, if you are a smoker (shame), avoid any nicotine at least one hour before going to bed. Caffeine and nicotine act as stimulants and work against you falling asleep.
- Engage in exercise on a regular basis as that definitely contributes to sleeping properly. But, do not undertake any strenuous form of exercise two hours prior to going to bed.
- Do not drink excessive amounts of alcohol unless you are prepared to have a restless, poor quality of sleep afterwards, waking up frequently.
- Avoid doing anything in front of a bright screen, such as playing computer games, using a smartphone or watching television, for one hour prior to going to bed. Also, if you have to get out of bed during the night, try to avoid any bright lights.
- When you actually do lie down to sleep, banish all emotionally charged, upsetting, negative thoughts from your mind. Try to concentrate your mind on something that gives you contentment and happiness. Avoid thinking about what you need to be doing in the next couple of days. If to-do tasks keep popping into your mind, keep a pad and pen beside your bed so you can quickly write them down and stop thinking about them.
- Make your bedroom a sleep friendly environment – cool, dark, quiet with a comfortable mattress and pillow.
- For many reasons, it’s best not to allow your pets to be in your bedroom.
- Whenever you are having difficulty falling asleep, try your best to lie still and avoid tossing and turning. Even when you are not actually sleeping, your body and mind are getting a beneficial rest when you lie still and relax. Attempt to progressively relax your muscles, beginning with your toes and gradually moving up your body to your head.
- When you travel across different time zones, upon embarking always immediately set your watch to the local time of your destination and, upon arrival, adjust your eating and sleeping times to the same as they would be locally. It is especially important to resist going to bed to sleep until you normally would at the local time.
If you find that the above steps do not improve your ability to enjoy a good night’s sleep on a regular basis, you probably need to consult your doctor to determine if you have some type of serious sleep disorder.
Your objective should be to develop a set of healthy habits that you follow throughout your life. You simply cannot afford to take your mental and physical wellness for granted. You have to assume the responsibility for keeping yourself in good health. Now! | health |

22 февраля 2021 г.
OJSC “Luninetsky MZ” offers its customers a new product – Drinking milk A2 of the new trade mark “Asablivae”.
Regular milk contains two variants of beta-casein protein – A1 and A2. A1 protein is a common cause of milk intolerance; it can intensify inflammatory processes and become a source of discomfort in the stomach and intestines. Our “drinking milk A2” does not contain A1 protein.
How do we remove A1 from milk?
There is no special technology behind. We simply select cows that naturally produce milk without this type of protein. At the same time, we control not only the type of cows, but all stages of production.
Symptoms such as bloating, abdominal pain, and diarrhea are often attributed to lactose intolerance. Although often unpleasant sensations and discomfort can be caused by A1 protein, which is found in ordinary milk. Therefore, A2 milk can get rid of the unpleasant effects of regular milk. Drinking Milk A2 is absolutely safe to drink!
Milk A2 protects the body from the inside. Regular drinking of it helps in strengthening the immune system and restoring strength.
A2 milk is obtained from cows with a double A2 beta-casein gene. | health |

Vaporizing health is a term used to describe those who use e-cigs or other styles of electronic devices to get a high. E-cigs contain nicotine, propylene glycol along with other chemical compounds that provide them their distinctive flavor. They don’t contain tar like traditional cigarettes do and so are safer to use than the conventional kind. However, there are many of disadvantages that are associated with these products aswell. While they are much better than traditional cigarettes with regards to the taste and odor, there are a few dangers associated with their use that require to be considered.
Element Vape One of the biggest concerns is the fact that e-cigs do not provide nicotine. Nicotine, a substance found in cigarettes, can actually be lethal when it’s ingested. Many people that are trying to quit smoking cigarettes will often switch over to using most of these vaporizing devices to greatly help them quit. The problem comes from the fact that it really is difficult to avoid smoking with e-cigs since the patch or nicotine gum typically has to be used for at least 30 mins before it really is effective.
Most of the ingredients found in traditional cigarettes can also be within these vaporizing devices. For example, nicotine is present in the form of toxins and tar which have been found in cigarette smoke. They have also been found in other smoke producing substances such as for example paint and flooring paints. Being that they are inhaled, you will find a possibility that you might become dependent on them and experience withdrawal symptoms when you try to stop using them. This is one of the primary risks associated with tapering.
Another danger associated with vaporizing is that it does not contain any type of harmful chemicals. In fact, the one thing present in these products is really a harmless quantity of propylene glycol that serves to make them easy to use. If you are a smoker looking to liberate from cigarettes, then this may be the perfect solution. However, if you’re not a smoker, you run the chance of developing nicotine addiction when using these vaporizing devices.
There are many different brands of e-cigarette on the market today. Some brands, such as for example Blu, claim to be healthier than others. However, no credible medical body has found any evidence to aid these claims. It is very important remember that smoking contains dozens of different chemicals, including tar and nicotine that can severely affect the body in a number of different ways. Therefore, investing in a quality e-cigarette with a good brand can give you healthier lungs ultimately.
Regardless of the warnings that many doctors and health experts have issued against vapes, you may still find a significant number of people who use these devices regardless of the current health scare. The reason for this is because there are a variety of people who are unfamiliar with the dangers of smoking. In order to help they make the switch to e-cigarette’s, a variety of different flavors can be found. Papers can pick from fruity flavors such as for example raspberry or apple to the mellow and pungent flavors of pineapples and oranges. Many new vapers also enjoy fruit flavors, such as for example melon or tangerines, due to their high antioxidant levels. It is important to remember that while you will find loads of nice tasting fruit flavored e-liquids available on the market, it is very important to choose one that will not contain dangerous chemicals.
And a variety of different flavors, consumers are able to purchase moist rubs and oil that will help them experience the vapors produced by vaporizing e cigarettes. These moist rubs and oil can be used to help combat the unwanted effects associated with nicotine withdrawal. The downside to the moist rub and oil is that they tend to get sticky and stained. A number of the more advanced models of the vaporizing devices are designed to be able to absorb in to the user’s skin, but this is not usually recommended. If you are going to utilize the moist rub and oil to combat the outward symptoms of nicotine withdrawal, then you should use them in conjunction with your e cigarettes.
While there have been many statements made concerning the dangers of the cigarettes, the fact is that they provide a far healthier alternative to smoking. While tobacco use has been proven to contribute to various cancers and other health conditions, using the products significantly lessens the opportunity of encountering these ailments. Provided that the user uses these products relative to their package directions, they’ll greatly reduce the risks connected with smoking by a significant margin. | health |

There was a time when such surgeries were meant only for celebrities who wanted to retain their beauty and look ageless. Today, however, even common people do not hesitate to come under the knife. The reason is just plain and simple- they want to look good. No wonder, the number of plastic surgeries done across the world is increasing at a surprising pace. In fact, this branch of surgery is no longer confined to curative and restorative purposes but becoming more of an enhancement technique. Here are some of the most popular procedures being performed for cosmetic enhancements:
Facelift: Facelift is perhaps the most in-demand surgical treatment that men and women want alike. It is being widely used to cater to the obsession of looking ageless. As one ages, the facial skin tends to sag and become wrinkled. The appearance of creases below the lower lids is the first sign of aging. Gradually, the facial fat gets displaced and this results in the accumulation of excess skin under the chin. Facelift is the procedure that involves re-sculpting of the facial fat to restore a toned look. During the surgery, incisions are made behind the ears and at the hairline.
Breast Augmentation: Breast augmentation is another common cosmetic procedure. As the name suggests, this surgery is meant to enhance the size and symmetry of the breasts. The surgery involves placement of breast implants followed by tailoring of the symmetry of the breasts. Implants come in two varieties, saline (saltwater) and silicone. Most Plastic surgeons Atlanta recommend the latter because these look more natural. However, implants need to be replaced periodically, which means that there is a need for repeat surgeries. Breast augmentation results in scarring, which is subsequently resolved with plastic surgery.
Liposuction: Liposuction is the procedure that involves the removal of excessive fat from certain body areas such as the stomach, buttocks, back and knees. It is done with the objective of removing localized fat and restoring the body proportions. People prefer to opt for liposuction because it seems to be a faster and easier alternative to natural weight loss. It gives them a toned appearance and boosts their self-esteem. However, patients need to follow a strict diet and exercise regime post-surgery so that they are able to maintain healthy weight levels and stay in good shape.
Rhinoplasty/Nose Job: Nose is the most prominent facial feature. A majority of people are dissatisfied with its natural curvature. They might think that it is too short or long, narrow or wide or curved. This accounts for an increasing number of people opting for rhinoplasty or nose job. It is a delicate surgery that can change the appearance of the patient even with a slight
change. The expertise of the surgeon matters a lot because he has to perform tricky tasks such as altering the size of the nostrils or changing the angle between the nose and the upper lip. In some cases, a rhinoplasty may be needed due to medical reasons too, such as for reducing airway obstruction.
Eyelid Surgery: Age and genetics lead to sagging of eyelids and sometimes, hooded appearance. Eyelid surgery is a plastic surgery that is meant to put the eyelids back in place. It is an extremely delicate procedure that involves removal of fat and extra skin from the eye area. Sometimes, it may also be recommended for the correction of the under-eye bags.
It is important to realize that plastic surgery for cosmetic reasons needs to be justified. Consider the pros and cons as well as weigh the costs and benefits before making up your mind. Also, see an expert plastic surgeon if you require any of these procedures. | health |

She evaluates and clearly explains the concerns and clinical significance of genetic findings. More importantly, she educates and then helps create a clear treatment plan which removes a great deal of anxiety for my patients. I appreciate her advice and knowledge in counseling my patients through treatment algorithms.
- Kelly J. Baek, MD, FACOG, California Fertility Partners
Amy's expertise proved to be invaluable to my wife and I as we launched into IVF. Amy patiently and thoroughly walked us through our test results, arming us with information that proved vital to a successful outcome. What could have been an overwhelmingly stressful process was rendered more manageable because of Amy's help.
- Couple pre-IVF
I've known and worked with Amy Vance for over 14 years. Our business relationship and now also friendship came out of a mutual desire to help the families we work with benefit from the most information possible regarding the health of their future children. Additionally, we share a deep responsibility to work on high moral and ethical grounds, and there is also the comfort in knowing I'm sending my clients to someone so knowledgeable in the field of genetics. Amy is a stand-out in the fertility industry and I would highly recommend her to anybody who asks.
- Wendie Wilson-Miller, President, Gifted Journeys Egg Donation, Inc.
I have always found Amy to be one of the most friendly and responsive service providers I use. Her work is always of the highest calibre and delivered in a most timely manner. As service providers go, she’s among the best.
- Neil Kelly, Client Services Manager, British Surrogacy Centre
You’re consultations are world-class and I feel very lucky to be working with you.
- IVF physician, California
Your advice was invaluable. Thank you for protecting my future family. You have secured our fate.
- Intended father, regarding a genetic risk assessment on his ovum donor
When we spoke, based on my wife’s family history of cancer, you suggested among other things that she get a mammogram before getting pregnant. Based on your advice, she did; and the doctors unfortunately found early stage breast cancer in her right breast. After surgery, we did an IVF cycle last summer and had a son. We wanted to write and thank you again. If not for your prudent advice, she would not have had a mammogram until much later. While we never wish our challenging experiences on anyone, we do certainly feel fortunate for the chain of events that led us to get that mammogram at age 35- including your sound, professional advice.
- Couple undergoing IVF, genetic risk assessment provided prior to IVF
We had been trying to get pregnant naturally for 2 years with no luck. I am a carrier for an X-linked disease that causes blindness and we had heard about PGD and wanted to investigate this option. We spent the next year and a half speaking with several geneticists trying to find a lab that could test our family. We had no luck, but sought IVF anyway hoping to identify the sex of the embryo before implantation. My friend urged me to speak to Dr. Zouves and we were then introduced to Amy Vance. From here on out my words below cannot tell you how incredibly grateful we are and always will be. Amy, I am truly grateful for your dedication to your field. Thank you for finding us a lab that could do the PGD and eradicate a disease that has passed through every generation of boys in my family. And now I am close to 5 months pregnant with 2 girls who are not carriers. You deserve so much praise for your part. And thank you for all of your follow-up emails of support. It meant so much to me and kept me positive.
- Couple undergoing IVF who required PGD for a genetic condition in their family
You spent so much time counseling us and giving us the benefit of your experience- without so much as a bill or hesitance in any way. We want you to know that your advice was much appreciated as we faced the possibility of raising a child with possible permanent behavior problems and other issues caused by drugs the mother used during pregnancy. What we learned was invaluable due to your referrals and guidance. We armed ourselves with this knowledge, and made a decision to raise and love the child. Unfortunately, the birth mother changed her mind. We also learned, as you suspected, that she was using drugs throughout the pregnancy. We believe this was a blessing in disguise, since I am now 12 weeks pregnant. You have been an amazing source of knowledge and assistance to us. I have been telling others in my egg donation group about you and must say that no one has received the kind of counseling that you have given us for our genetic consults, not to mention all of the additional time spent on our adoption. We will continue to refer you to our friends and hope that you know we appreciate your help very much!
- Couple considering adoption
I was unaware of the necessity of a genetic counselor until my husband and I decided to use an egg donor. We thought we had everything covered by simply getting genetic tests for him and our egg donor, but it was our genetic counselor who informed us that the tests did not in fact test for the same mutations, causing us to have our egg donor tested again with the same test my husband was given. Unfortunately there is immense oversight in the genetic testing industry (it’s a business, after all) and there are so many “traps” to potentially fall into if you don’t have a genetic counselor guiding you along the correct pathway. Fertility doctors, surrogacy/egg donor agencies and intended parents need to be better informed about the process and how to navigate it more efficiently and effectively, because it is a winding road with many speed bumps and dead ends. Information is power - however, without an adequate guide it can quickly become a treacherous journey. Genetic counselors are the key to preventing misinformation, and if you’re lucky enough to find a competent one like Amy Vance, the process becomes more manageable.

Reiki is a Japanese relaxation, healing and spiritual technique. It works with the body’s energy system to relax, energise and heal the mind and body.
The recipient is treated fully clothed by the practitioner placing their hands on or just above the recipient’s body.
Recipients can expect to feel relaxed and de-stressed following treatments. It is also common to feel much more positive and energised. With Reiki energies flowing through the body healing of dis-eases is enabled.

Departing from the quaint and quirky village of Portwenn, this unique series follows Dr. Ellingham to a remote and rugged medical outpost on the edge of civilization.
Faced with the challenging task of providing medical care in a wild and isolated coastal region, Dr. Ellingham’s medical skills are put to the ultimate test. The landscape is breathtaking, but it’s also unforgiving, with towering cliffs, tempestuous seas, and a population that relies on him as their only link to healthcare. Whether it’s a dramatic rescue from a fishing vessel in distress, treating injuries sustained by adventurers exploring the remote wilderness, or addressing the unique health concerns of the coastal community, each episode presents a fresh medical challenge.
Yet, the real drama unfolds within the doctor himself. Removed from the support and familiarity of Portwenn, Dr. Ellingham’s character undergoes a profound transformation. The solitude and demanding nature of his new post force him to confront his personal demons and reevaluate his approach to medicine and human interaction. As he navigates the dual roles of a medical savior and an isolated soul, he grapples with his own vulnerabilities and the limitations of his expertise.
“Doc Martin: On The Edge” is a thrilling and emotionally charged series that explores the boundaries of medical practice, the power of human resilience, and the enduring spirit of a dedicated physician. As Dr. Ellingham treads on the precipice between his clinical brilliance and the demands of life on the edge, viewers are drawn into a world of breathtaking landscapes, medical emergencies, and the profound introspection of a character at a pivotal point in his journey. | health |

I am pleased to offer Placenta Encapsulation services to women in the Seattle and King County area. Placenta Encapsulation using the traditional Chinese method of preparation, allows a woman to receive the benefits that her placenta can continue to offer in an easy to take capsule after the birth.
Consuming the placenta in this way has been shown to help with milk supply, stabilize the emotional moods swings of the early postpartum period and restore the body to full strength and capacity after the hard work of birth.
My clients who have had their placenta encapsulated report that they notice and appreciate the added boost their capsules provide them during the weeks and months after they have birthed their baby.
I take the placenta home from the birth of my birth clients and return it encapsulated at our first postpartum visit (day 3-5 postbirth) and for non-birth clients I like to pick up your placenta within a couple days of birth and return it within 72 hours. It may be fresh/refrigerated for several days or frozen if it will be longer than that, until I receive it.
The fee for my Placenta Encapsulation services is $200 for birth clients and $250 for non-birth clients. You may register and pay for this service here. The registration area for this service is the bottom of the page.
Please contact me if you wish to have your placenta encapsulated after your birth or have any questions about the benefits or process. I am happy to provide this beneficial service to you! | health |

Hello and welcome to the Cochlear Community!
This is a GREAT Community of people just like you! Whether you are researching implantable hearing solutions, such as a cochlear implant or Baha system or you are already a recipient or parent or family member of someone with hearing loss....we are a family of people who understand where you are and what you are going through, because we've been there ourselves.
I grew up around people with hearing loss....several people in my family including my father and grandmother were hearing aid users as long as I can remember. I grew up with normal hearing as far as I know, however early in my work life I was experiencing difficulty hearing on the phone. With a family history of hearing loss I was evaluated and started wearing hearing aids at age 26. I was a successful hearing aid user for many years and had a progressive sensorineural loss. My hearing loss plateaued at about 65 dB for several years. At age 37 I experienced a sudden overnight loss which virtually left me deaf. I had no illness related to this loss. After determining that my hearing aids had not died...but instead my hearing had plummeted, my audiologist recommended I be evaluated for a cochlear implant. This was in the fall of 1995 and at that time the criteria for adult implantation was that you could have no measurable hearing. I had some (very little) measurable hearing at 250 and 500 hz. So while I had no speech understanding from that measurable hearing and about 120 dB loss in all other frequencies, I did not meet the criteria for implantation. Fortunately for me the criteria changed and after about 2 1/2 years of profound loss, I was approved as a candidate..... Although I was approved, insurance coverage of cochlear implants at this time was not an everyday occurrence...and therefore I battled insurance for an additional 2 years before I would get approval, therefore I was deaf for almost 5 years prior to implantation. I had immediate success with my implant. I had speech understanding from the first day and I have been using the phone since 5 days after activation!
I am fortunate in so many ways....I had been part of a great organization (SHHH) now known as HLAA, therefore I had a lot of support and really made my decision to have a Nucleus Cochlear Implant because of others who were in HLAA who had chosen to have cochlear implants. I knew that Cochlear was the company the created the multi-channel cochlear implant and I only really knew one person who had chosen another brand. I knew if I needed support from my friends who had cochlear implants, that I wanted to have the same brand that they did...I also knew how much we shared information about technology such as assistive devices and such, so they could share with me all the "gadgets" they used with their processors to enhance their listening experiences. This was long before there was a thought of a community of cochlear implant recipients such as this website. I have been very happy with my cochlear implant and so about 6 years after my first implant I decided to get a second implant. Again, I encountered insurance obstacles which lasted 22 months, and literally I was approved for my second implant the day before my surgery was scheduled. So I was implanted in with my second device at Christmas of 2007. I personally find that my understanding of conversation in noise has been greatly enhanced by being a bilateral recipient. I also find that I can localize sound much better than having one implant. And I LOVE hearing bilaterally on the phone with a neck-loop or listening to music or books on tapes/cd and most recently my Kindle. In my opinion, two ears really are better than one.
I look forward to hearing from you, please let me know how I may support you on your hearing loss journey.
I am here to offer you resources, support and hope.
Happy Hearing! Paula | health |

Have you ever wondered “how can I remove lines in my forehead”? These are some of the most frequently asked questions about skin care, that I will be answering in this article. Let’s get started now.
Why do I have lines in my forehead?
The single biggest cause of lines and wrinkles in the skin is a breakdown of collagen fibers. When the body is not able to produce enough collagen to replace them, the skin becomes loose and gets riddled with lines and wrinkles.
Age is the biggest factor here for formation of lines. Other factors like the sun, wind, and chemicals also play a role in accelerating this process.
Can a Collagen cream help?
There are two problems with collagen creams. One – the molecules of collagen are too big in size to be absorbed by the skin by applying a cream. Most of the collagen is left unused at the top of the skin and is effectively useless.
Two – the collagen in these creams is synthetic in nature and derived from cows or pigs. Even if it somehow makes it way into the skin, it is not able to mesh well with the complex structures of the natural collagen present inside. It can only provide temporary results and is not very effective.
So how do I remove the lines in my forehead?
Your best option to remove the lines on your forehead is to naturally increase the collagen production in your body.
Active Manuka Honey is one natural substance that can help you do it. It has been shown to increase the production of collagen and elastin in the skin – the two proteins needed for a firm and elastic skin. This honey also has anti bacterial properties which help in keeping the skin safe from bacterial attacks.
Phytessence Wakame – a Japanese sea kelp, prevents the breakdown of hyraluronic acid in the skin. This acid plays an important role in binding the collagen and elastin fibers together and is essential for a smooth and firm skin. It also protects the skin from the damage caused by the Ultraviolet rays.
CoQ10 is a powerful antioxidant and protects the skin from being damaged by free radicals. It also has a strong anti wrinkle effect.
So there you have it. All the information you need to reverse wrinkles from your skin. The next time someone asks “how do I remove lines in my forehead?” – you know what to tell them. | health |

This is called peripheral neuropathy. It can make your feet less sensitive to pain, lead to deformities of your feet, and cause dryness of your skin.
High sugar levels also damage the blood vessels in your feet. This is called peripheral vascular disease and means that the blood supply to your feet is reduced.
Peripheral neuropathy and peripheral vascular disease can cause problems.
If you damage your foot in any way, for example by stepping on something, or getting a blister from a pair of shoes, you may not feel any pain. This means the damage could get worse without you realising. If the blood supply to your foot is poor as well, the wound may not heal very well.
Very quickly, a small area of damage can get worse, forming an ulcer or an infection that could affect your whole body. Unfortunately, this may lead to you needing an amputation of part of your foot or leg. | health |

A examine finished by Harvard College discovered that people who find themselves already skinny that misplaced 10 kilos had the next danger of growing sort 2 diabetes a decade later — and have been additionally extra more likely to acquire weight afterward in life.
Researchers collected knowledge for 200,000 wholesome Individuals — 9 in 10 of which have been feminine — between 1988 and 2017. Members have been divided into three classes by physique mass index (BMI): wholesome or underweight, obese and overweight. They have been then cut up into two teams: those that misplaced 9.9 kilos over 4 years and people who didn’t.
Seven extra subgroups have been created inside these occurring a weight loss plan primarily based on how they selected to drop some weight: low-calorie weight-reduction plan, exercising, low-calorie weight loss plan plus train, fasting, business weight reduction packages, weight loss supplements, and a mixture of fasting, business packages and weight loss supplements.
After observing medical data over 10 years on common, scientists discovered that lean individuals who went on an excessive weight loss plan gained between 4.4 and 17 extra kilos than their friends — however overweight individuals who participated in 4 of the packages (low-calorie weight loss plan, train, low-calorie weight loss plan plus train and fasting) misplaced between 3.5 and 1.3 extra kilos than their friends.
When trying on the danger of diabetes, researchers discovered that thinner individuals who misplaced a big quantity of weight have been 54% extra more likely to get sort 2 diabetes afterward, and the overweight adults who went on a strict weight loss plan have been much less more likely to develop diabetes.
“We have been a bit stunned after we first noticed the optimistic associations of weight reduction makes an attempt with quicker weight acquire and better sort 2 diabetes danger amongst lean people,” mentioned Dr. Qi Solar, an epidemiologist at Harvard who led the examine.
“Nonetheless, we now know that such observations are supported by biology that sadly entails hostile well being outcomes when lean people attempt to drop some weight deliberately.”
Outcomes additionally confirmed that skinny individuals who drop some weight by following a stylish weight loss plan or weight reduction program have been anticipated to realize quite a lot of weight later in life, possible as a result of the load loss results in organic modifications.
The scientists imagine that lean individuals who misplaced quite a lot of weight had increased ranges of starvation hormones, main them to crave extra junk meals and inflicting the physique to build up extra fats cells with a purpose to enhance the hormone ranges. Additionally they suspect that dramatic weight reduction results in decrease ranges of anorexigenic hormones that suppress starvation.
Researchers at the moment are warning that weight reduction diets needs to be reserved solely for many who “medically want them” — not for already skinny individuals who hope to attain a physique that lives as much as Instagram requirements.
“The excellent news is that people with weight problems will clearly profit from dropping a number of kilos, and the well being advantages final even when the load loss is momentary,” Dr. Solar mentioned. | health |

But do you know which policies are best for your personal needs? Whether you’re single, employed, self-employed, married, or retired, there are many reasons why you should invest in health insurance. In this article, we’ll discuss the top 5 reasons that you should consider for your health insurance plan from an online vendor like Florida Insurance Quotes at https://floridainsurancequotes.net/health-insurance-quote/.
- You can’t tell the future. Unless of course, you’re a psychic. If, like most of us, you’re just as clueless about tomorrow as you are about a year from now, you’d better invest in health insurance. It protects you and your family from incurring a very expensive bill in the event of a medical emergency. You never know what will happen – even if you and your family are completely healthy, someone could need appendicitis or even treatment for a heart attack. These procedures have the potential to bankrupt a family if they can’t afford to pay. Health insurance prevents this from happening.
- You can see a doctor sooner. Most people who don’t have health insurance end up waiting in line for hours. They might even have to resort to going to the emergency room or even avoiding the doctor altogether. Don’t let this happen to you and your family. By investing in an affordable health care plan, you’ll be able to see a doctor in a reasonable amount of time. Good plans will also include visits to dentists, optometrists, and even mental health care professionals.
- You’ll have peace of mind. And when you have peace of mind, you’re healthier. Stress is a huge factor in why people seek the care of doctors – and although this might sound a bit far-fetched, it’s true. Having health insurance will help you to stay happier and healthier by relieving your anxiety. Whether you have the flu or something more serious, you’ll rest easier knowing you’re covered.
- You can get one tailored to your needs. Some people are frightened of paying for health insurance that they simply won’t use. Others are worried that a policy might not cover them because they have a chronic condition. Now you can shop for health care plans that are custom-tailored to your needs. You can actually find policies that are affordable and still cover all your needs.
- The healthcare reform act is in effect. If you couldn’t previously afford insurance, you can now find more affordable plans thanks to the new Affordable Care Act. Alternatively, if you do not want health insurance, you’ll have to pay a tax at the end of the year. There is truly no reason you shouldn’t try to get a good policy with these changes in effect. It’s easier and cheaper than ever before.
With these tips, you can easily see why you need healthcare. Hopefully these tips can help you in your search for affordable, comprehensive, and customized healthcare plans. You’ll rest better and feel better knowing you and your family are taken care of medically. It’s never been easier – or more important – to invest in health insurance! | health |

After witnessing the healing affects it had on my own life, I knew how crucial it was for others to experience this level of healing on their journey to wellness as well. In 2011, I became a Reiki practitioner and began sharing this beautiful gift of healing.
Reiki is a method of stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. The word “Reiki” means spiritually guided life- force energy and it was developed in Japan in 1922 and brought to the West in 1937. It’s meaning comes from two Japanese words: Rei, which means God’s wisdom or the Highest Power, and Ki which is life- force energy.
Reiki is based on the idea that unseen life-force energy flows through all things. Our physical body is alive because of the ‘life force energy’ that is flowing through it. If our life force is low or blocked, we are more likely to get sick, but if it is high and free-flowing, we can more easily maintain health and the feeling of well-being.
The Reiki system of healing is a technique for transmitting the subtle energy to others through the hands into the human energy system. The client is fully clothed and the practitioner places their hands gently on, above, or around the body. Although Reiki is not associated with any religion, it is similar to many spiritual traditions which use the “laying on the hands”. Receiving Reiki feels like warm gentle sunshine flowing through you, surrounding you and comforting you. Reiki is powerful, yet at the same time, gentle and nurturing.
Reiki is a holistic healing technique that heals on all levels: physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual. One of the most common healing benefits is that it restores energy balance and vitality by relieving physical and emotional effects of unreleased stress but Reiki also has many additional benefits which are virtually endless. This healing technique is a wonderful compliment to medical care and all other healing modalities.
Reiki sessions usually last a total of 50 minutes with another 15 minutes for reflection. Cost $65
I have been working to help individuals reach their health goals for over 7 years. When I first began, I witnessed so many people make amazing physical transformations but the more I saw, I realized that I was only helping my clients achieve temporary change. Healing to me, was something more than just what you could see on the outside, but a change that was felt on the inside which then begins to shine through. I knew that in order to achieve true and full healing, you must approach it from a much deeper place. I have always used holistic healing in my own life and knew I wanted to share the mind, body, spirit connection with my clients. My path then lead me to the Institute of Integrative Nutrition where I received my education and became a certified holistic life coach.
My Life coaching sessions are designed to create an alliance between myself and the client where the coaching relationship continually gives all the power back to you, the client. I believe you know the answers to every question or challenge you may have in your life, even if those answers appear to be obscured, concealed or hidden inside.
My skills are about knowing the right questions to ask and having the right tools and techniques to empower you to find those answers within yourself. You, the client, are the only expert in your entire life who truly knows who you are and what you need. You are the only expert who can recognize what is absolutely best for you. As your coach, I help you discover what your own personal “best” might be.
Every day we make choices to do or not to do many things. These choices may range from profound to trivial and each one has an effect that makes our lives more fulfilling or less fulfilling, more balanced or less balanced, that makes our process of living more effective or less effective. Life coaching helps you learn to make choices that create an effective, balanced and fulfilling life. I am here to help you uncover your true self and create peace and healing from the inside out.
Life coaching sessions are one hour in length. Cost $65
REIKI & LIFE COACHING
In the years that I have been practicing both Reiki and Life Coaching, I have seen so many amazing shifts happen with the individuals I work with. Both of my practices have specific healing benefits when used on their own but what I have found is that, when they are combined, an even more beautiful stage is set for change and growth.
As my clients receive Reiki, their energy centers become unblocked and life-force energy is able to run freely through their body. This allows them to walk through life more balanced, relaxed, and full of awareness, making it easier to change old habits and patterns. However, with this new found balance and inner peace, I have found that many of my clients want to explore and understand further what they are opening up during their Reiki sessions. I have discovered that life coaching is a crucial part at this time. With the partnership of Reiki and Life Coaching, I am able to guide my clients along their path to balance and wholeness as they begin to walk more easily through this beautiful and fulfilling life.
Reiki and Life Coaching are two hours. Cost $90 | health |
