One of things that so amazing about acupuncture is in its numerous benefits! These are some of my favorite reasons to perform acupuncture on my patients that are backed by a good amount of research.

 In addition to being a great alternative to prescription pain medication, it is also good for mental health. In today's busy world, people are turning to acupuncture for relief from stress and anxiety.

And where do all those benefits start out? In your brain, of course. Here are seven ways that acupuncture can change your brain for the better, according to science.

2013 study determined that acupuncture can cause your brain to release neuropeptides — molecules that allows neurons and effector cells to communicate — into the central nervous system. In turn, this can help relieve pain and stimulate your body's self-healing process.

2Specifically, It Helps Release Your Brain's Natural Pain Killers

When you think of pain relievers, over-the-counter and prescribed medication is probably the first thing that come to mind. However, our brains naturally produce chemicals, such as endorphins, that can help manage pain, and, acupuncture can actually help your brain produce more of these important chemicals. "Probably the most popular use today for acupuncture is pain. The American College of Physicians (ACP) recommends acupuncture as the first line of defense patients suffering from low back pain," Dr. Auth says.

3It Can Improve Blood Flow Throughout Your Body

Another cool effect of acupuncture happens throughout your body. Dr. Trattner says, "Acupuncture constricts blood vessels, and releases vasodilators," which causes your blood vessels to relax, and in turn, helps reduce both cerebral blood pressure and high blood pressure in your body.

4It Helps Anxiety

According to a 2013 study published in the journal Evidence-based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, "Acupuncture has clinical efficacy on various autonomic nerve-related disorders, such as cardiovascular diseases, epilepsy, anxiety and nervousness, circadian rhythm disorders, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), and subfertility." Moreover, the researchers of the study concluded that acupuncture can alter neurotransmitters in areas of your brain to stop your autonomic response — which would alleviate symptoms of these nerve-related disorders.

5Acupuncture Can Boost Your Mood

Not only does acupuncture change the way your brain responds to pain, but it can have a positive impact on your mental wellness. "Neuotransmitters [your brain's way of communicating], serotonin, and noradrenalin are all affected by acupuncture, which affect mood," says Dr. Trattner.

Dr. Auth further explains that acupuncture is being used all over the world as a standalone and conjunctive treatment option for depression. She says, "Acupuncture has shown to enhance the effect of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor treatment, helping the treatment work faster to increase serotonin levels, and restore the immune system."

6Acupuncture Can Sooth Your Brain's Response To Stress

If you're constantly stressed, you may want to give acupuncture a shot, according to Dr. Auth. "Your nervous system is divided between the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system. Our sympathetic nervous system is known for 'fight or flight;' when the sympathetic nervous system is on, our blood pressure goes up, as does the body's stress hormone, cortisol," she says. "Acupuncture can encourage the body to let the parasympathetic nervous system take over — allowing the heart rate to slow down, and blood pressure and cortisol levels to drop."

7It "Blocks" Pain

Though science has proven that acupuncture does release natural pain relievers, some researchers and acupuncturists believe the practice works because it essentially prevents pain from being felt in the brain and spinal cord. "Acupuncture is believed to help control pain via 'the gate theory,'" says Dr. Trattner. "Our nervous system, if hit with too many nerve impulses, will become overwhelmed and close of the smallest pain centers — which carry pain messengers. These 'gates' are believed to close during acupuncture." However, this idea has not been scientifically proven.

Acupuncture is not for everyone, but if you have health conditions that cause pain or chronic stress, it is worth scheduling an appointment to see if it is right for you!  We are offering a new patient special of $125.00 for initial exam and treatment, $35.00 discount through July 3rd, by mentioning this article!  Thanks.

kidneyhealth

 

In western culture, very little attention to the kidneys are placed.  In fact, most of our lifestyle practices are quite harmful to the health of these organs which filter an enormous amount of wastes from our blood daily.  Stress, anxiety, caffeine usage, poor diet, alcohol, exposure to environmental toxins etc. will all have a detrimental effect of this organ.  In contrast,  other cultures see the kidneys as the root of health and make efforts to live in harmony  with natural laws and to rejuvenate kidney health periodically.  It is no coincidence to see kidney trouble in very old pets as well…

Signs your kidneys need some TLC:

·         Frequent anxiety/panic

·         Tinnitus, vertigo and or hearing loss

·         Lower back or knee pain

·         Chronic dry throat

·         Night sweats

·         Insomnia

·         Heat in the palms, soles, and or chest

·         A lack of stamina

 

Obviously, to make a significant impact on the health of the organ we must first remove the insults: overwork, stress, chronic anxiety, poor diet, etc…

From there, foods and various tonics will work wonders to restore health.

Foods that are beneficial to the kidneys are those that provide ample nutrition without causing an undue amount of waste in the blood.  Cabbage, cauliflower and other cruciferous vegetables assist the liver in phase II detoxification, that means that less toxins make their way to the blood stream.  Blueberries in particular, although other berries are helpful, provide excellent nourishment directly to the kidneys in the form of antioxidants and also reduce the body's glycemic load which is extremely important.  Fish protein, especially wild caught salmon, tuna, herring, and even sardines are very helpful in providing protein without increasing the burden on the kidneys which other proteins do. Countries that consume a good amount of fish do not even experience kidney problems. Egg whites also are extremely helpful in this regard and are low in phosphorus. Olive oil is actually anti inflammatory and again where this is consumed daily the incidence of kidney problems is extremely low.  Garlic is also quite helpful as it detoxifies the body and is antibacterial as well!  Apples help to reduce the size of kidney stones and allow them to pass faster and more easily.  Ginger can also assist with this.

 

Supplements that help kidney help can involve Chinese tonics which strengthen the kidney essence and meridian itself.  Here are two I like, there are MANY though and the best practice is to do an assessment to see what is appropriate for your individual condition.  Lastly, I began recommending a new product both for people and pets and we have seen phenomenal results too.  It is based on foods and nutrients compatible with kidney rejuvenation.  I cannot tell you in this article what it is as it can only be dispensed to current face to face clients per the manufacturer.  Next week, we will explore the many benefits acupuncture can provide to your BRAIN!  Do Not MISS this. Sign up! Here so you do not miss this. And don't forget to visit our store! FREE Shipping!

Best of Health!

schizophrenia

image:getdoc

 

 

Two million Americans suffer from schizophrenia, a progressive mental illness that is characterized by disabling symptoms like delusions and hallucinations. Unfortunately, the antipsychotic medications that are often given to address these problems come with their own set of risks. Now, scientists have discovered that certain nutrients could help to fight the illness safely, potentially paving the way for more effective treatments without side effects.

Researchers from the University of Manchester looked at data taken from eight different clinical studies examining nutrient supplementation in hundreds of young people during the onset of psychotic illness. They found that supplements like the amino acid taurine and vitamin C could help alleviate the condition if taken early. They believe it works because it can address the oxidative stress that occurs when the body is unable to process oxygen normally.

Shellfish like clams, shrimp and scallops are excellent sources of taurine, with raw shrimp containing nearly 50 milligrams per ounce of taurine. However, it's important to keep in mind that it is destroyed in cooking. Other fish that offer taurine include tuna, sardines, and salmon. Taurine can also be found in foods like Brussels sprout, seaweed and beef. A clinical trial in Melbourne involving 121 people with psychosis revealed that 4 grams of taurine a day could reduce psychotic symptoms in just 12 weeks. Past studies have shown that it can protect organs from injury or oxidative stress, and it can be particularly beneficial to heart health.

Vitamin C, which has also been shown to reduce symptoms, can be found in a wide variety of foods. Some of the best sources include red pepper, kiwi, guava, oranges, strawberries, pineapple and papaya.

Alternative treatments showing increasing promise in fighting schizophrenia

Past studies, meanwhile, have shown that folate and vitamin B12 can both help alleviate the symptoms of schizophrenia in some patients. Folate, which can be found in folic acid supplements, plays a vital role in the DNA methylation that regulates gene expression; B12 increases its effects. This particular finding built on earlier studies linking a folate deficiency during pregnancy with a higher risk of schizophrenia among offspring and other research linking low blood folate levels with more severe negative symptoms in schizophrenic patients.

Another recent study found that holistic therapy that includes one-on-one talk therapy and intense family support yielded better results than the drug regimen typically prescribed for the illness.

These latest findings from the University of Manchester are not quite conclusive, but they do point to some areas that are worthy of further investigation. Next, the team would like to combine these beneficial nutrients into one supplement and see if it has any effect on young people who are suffering from psychosis. A study is expected to be underway this year investigating this approach.

 

My own take on this is to study specifically what a person may be lacking by doing a vitamin, mineral, amino acid panel. I am certain that the results would be even more profound.  I have seen it in my own clients.  Next week I hope you will join me for a discussion on the importance and care and feeding of your kidneys.

Scientists are reporting that cholesterol drugs, which 15 million Americans are prescribed, are also completely worthless. A group of international researchers published a study in the BMJ Open journal that found no link between what's known as “bad” cholesterol and death as a result of heart disease in individuals over 60 years of age.

In fact, the results found that 92 percent of people with high cholesterol actually lived longer. The best way to achieve and maintain good heart health is not through medications but through healthy lifestyle habits.

“Lowering cholesterol with medications for primary cardiovascular prevention in those aged over 60 is a total waste of time and resources, whereas altering your lifestyle is the single most important way to achieve a good quality of life,” said vascular and endovascular surgery expert Professor Sherif Sultan from the University of Ireland.

‘Lowering cholesterol with medications is a total waste of time'

Study co-author Dr. Malcolm Kendrick said their findings show “that older people with high LDL (low-density lipoprotein) levels, the so-called ‘bad' cholesterol, lived longer and had less heart disease.”

These revelations are sure to have huge implications for the pharmaceutical industry, as the cholesterol drug Lipitor is the most profitable meditation of all time – raking in more than $140 billion in sales, according to Health Impact News. 

The guidelines for preventing heart disease and the buildup of plaque in the arteries need to be re-evaluated, said the study authors, adding that “the benefits from statin treatment have been exaggerated.”

But the truth is that the benefits of statins haven't just been exaggerated, but 100 percent fabricated, as well as the “research” supporting other drugs such as antidepressants and vaccines.

Natural News reported in 2013 that the push to get even more U.S. adults on statins was facilitated by doctors tied to the industry. Physicians with the American Heart Association and American College of Cardiology issued new guidelines three years ago calling for one-third of all adults to consider taking statins – a push proven to be extremely lucrative for Big Pharma.

 

When questioned about the conflict of interest, the response was: “Ties between heart doctors and Big Pharma are so extensive that it is almost impossible to find a large group of doctors who have no industry ties.”

dandelions

 

Image: Tony Dye Wordpress

 

Those yellow flowers on your lawn are more than just pesky weeds. Dandelion has been considered a valuable food and medicine in both Eastern and Western culture for thousands of years and is now being studied for its cancer fighting abilities.
The use of the dandelion plant in both Greek and Chinese medicine predates written records.  Traditional healers use it to cleanse the liver, flush toxins from the kidneys and purify the blood.

 

It's blood purifying compounds led researchers at University of Windsor in Canada to hypothesize that dandelion could help patients with end-stage blood cancer.

 

They inserted danderlion root extract into Petri dishes with blood drawn from leukemia patients and lab rats.

 

To their delight, the dandelion root induced apoptosis or “cell suicide” in cancer cells, while leaving healthy cells alone.

 

Dandelion root's ability to selectively kill only cancer cells — as opposed to radiation and chemotherapy which kill healthy cells and flood the body with toxins —could make it an invaluable tool in the future of cancer treatment, at least in countries whose medical institutions are actually invested in curesAs a result of the experiment, researchers were given the green light to test out dandelion root on thirty Canadian cancer patients. It's the first ever in Canada that a natural extract has been approved for a clinical trial. Unfortunately, the United States has yet to follow suit.

 

In “the land of the free” herbalists aren't allowed to treat cancer patients for cancer, they are merely allowed to offer herbs as supportive therapy, to help undo the damage of conventional treatments.

 

Dr. Siyaram Pandey – lead researcher and biochemistry professor at Windsor –  was encouraged when he saw the results of patients who chose dandelion tea over chemotherapy. “These folks actually lived,” he said in a recent Ted Talk.

 


 

Not only do dandelions heal the body, they also nourish the body. In Italy they are eaten fried. They're loaded with vitamins like A, C, K, B6, B3,B9 and B12 and minerals like iron (crucial for generating red blood cells), calcium, magnesium, potassium (regulates heart rate and blood pressure), phosphorus, manganese, copper and zinc.

 

 

 

So, the next time you decide to hack away at all those yellow weeds, eat them instead of throwing them away. They're great in a salad, in soups or as a tea.

facial acupuncture

 

image:AOMA.edu

Ancient Chinese medicine is designed to rectify ailments internally, not just topically.

 

This means a person's exterior, including their face, is affected directly by the overall health of their internal organs. The actual science of this is called physiognomy and has existed for thousands of years.  In the areas of facial sagging and wear there are correlations to internal organs.

 

Because of this, treatments will address the internal body as well as my face, and as every session is tailored to the patient's specific needs and a thorough history and exam is given.

 

Often, imbalances in spleen and kidney qi or energy result in laxity and sagging of the skin.

 

The spleen is the central organ in the production of ‘qi', a force or energy that controls the workings of the human mind and body, meaning a happily functioning one is critical in supporting the long-term health of an individual.  The kidney is the root of the body's life force energy and will be reflected in the health of all organs including the skin.

 

 First will come  a  facial massage to wake up the face and map out trouble areas, and  concentrating specifically on activating the client's meridian lines (the pathways via which the qi flows) and testing for pressure points.

 

Facial acupuncture with collagen induction derma-rolling combines traditional acupuncture and advance micro-needling.

 

It enhances the production of collagen – that fibrous protein that keeps us looking young – and which unfortunately declines as we age, rolling out the welcome mat for wrinkles.

 

ESPA Life at London's Corinthia Hotel

 

The combined procedures also significantly improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, firmness, enlarged pores and acne scarring. They also help increase blood circulation in the skin and improve natural cell regeneration.

 

Thus the popularity of the acupuncture facial as a “natural” alternative to the Botox and fillers which simply “paper over” the signs of ageing has reportedly seen it adopted by members of the Hollywood elite including Jennifer Anniston, Angelina Jolie and Madonna.

 

I use very fine needles and also electric acupuncture to relax some of the facial muscles.

 

Done properly, and consistently, facial acupuncture will take years off your face as well as benefitting your health holistically.  Please call us at 847-577-4455 if you would like to schedule a session. Next week: join us for a discussion about an herb that actually weeds out cancer cells.

meditate rx

 

Stress is one of the main sources of mental and physical wear and tear. Unfortunately, it is often considered an inevitable part of many people's daily lives.

If you realize that stress makes you feel tense, worried or anxious, meditation is a great way to restore calm and inner peace. Through meditation, you can take charge of your own emotions.

Studies have shown an increased ability to regulate emotions in the brain among people who meditate as compared to those who don't. Meditation is also a good practice for preventing stress so that when you're faced with adverse situations, you don't let them get out of control.

Improved Concentration


Meditation helps to keep one more focused and centered on everything they do. With a less distracted mind, you can enjoy increased abilities such as better memory and mental focus. The increased energy that comes from meditation boosts concentration levels.

Frequent meditators as well as people who have recently adopted the practice report that meditation gives them clarity and helps them to collect their thoughts better.

recent study published in the journal of Psychological science shows that intensive meditation can help people concentrate, even during the most boring of tasks.

Increased Self-Awareness

In our current technologically advanced and fast-paced world, we are constantly bombarded with stimuli and there seems to be no time to be still. As a result, self-awareness is in short supply.

Well, meditation provides the perfect solution by creating an opportunity for silence and self-reflection.

By practicing meditation, we can reconnect with our true selves while quieting the noisy, overstimulated and distracted world.

Increased Happiness

 There are many scientific studies showing that meditation can make us happier by rewiring our brains. According to psychologists, we all have individual capacities for joy.

So, meditation works by reconfiguring our capacity to be happy. Even better, is that it lasts and you can keep the glow going for as long as you want.

Improved Health

By helping us to be less stressed in the first place, meditation can work wonders in improving one's physical and mental health.

Moreover, multiple studies demonstrate the benefits of meditation for cardiovascular health.

It has been shown to improve type 2 diabetes and hypertension. Meditation is also believed to help people with insomnia get better sleep. There's also evidence that meditation can help with addictions.
