Trade your Wrinkles for Needles


It happens now and then, a patient comes in for a health complaint and starts asking about whether Acupuncture really works for wrinkles.

The first Acupuncture Facial I performed was in a clinic where there were several Acupuncturist. Patients were rotated between practitioners. I did the first treatment, the women was in her mid 40's and she had some wrinkles around her eyes, forehead and mouth, nothing outstanding but it definitely aged her.

The next time I saw her was on her 7th visit. I had to do a double take. I thought she was a new student. She looked to be 10 years younger. I had heard that acupuncture it was an effective face life / rejuvenation but, when you see it first hand, it seems more impressive. I think it struck me more, because I had not seen her for so many treatments. The other practitioners that were there that day, agreed there was a noticeable change after even the 3rd visit.

Everyone is different of course, but if you are looking for a good alternative to going under the knife or botox, that is good for your whole body too, you should give Cosmetic Acupuncture a try. You will be pleasantly surprised! Update: now microneedling is a game changer.

*I am recommending that you consult your allopathic doctor before you make any changes, but keep in mind that allopathic doctors are not alternative therapist and most only know their particular field. If you are on prescription drugs, you have no choice but to follow the doctor's orders but try to implement what you can with the other suggestions and continue to ask if you can be safely taken off the medication or if there is a drug free way to address your issue. Seek out an Alternative Therapist to complement your treatment with advise on diet and nutrition, etc.

Are You Ingesting Heavy Metals??

  Iron "filings" used in the food industry,  instead of organic iron from a plant?  Yep, that's a thing!   Gluten may be popular to blame for health issues like leaky gut   but  iron filings are the real culprit. The shocking truth....Cooking in an iron skillet...that is not the form of iron your body can use. Consider that as you cook, your metal utensils scratch the surface of the skillet....where does that iron go that you just scratched off????.....in your food???  Hmmmm, food for thought ;) Hopefully, by now, you are off all processed food but if not, read ingredients! Cereals etc. "fortified with iron"? It has been revealed that in the past cereal companies used iron filings!!! so watch out for the tricky wording, that can lead to leaky gut.  Elimination is the best solution. Eat whole food. If you have allergies like bloating, gas, reflux, those are signs you may be sensitive / allergic or reacting to what you ate. Stay away from that fo...

Cramping, Spasms and Tremors have one thing in common...

...Lack of electron exchange. Electrons are made up of many different organic minerals which come from food, converted in the body and combined with water, they hydrate the body. Dehydration is lack of minerals and / or water or both. If you don’t replenish the minerals that are consistently being depleted by physical, mental or emotional activity, your body is becoming depleted and the body has to steal the materials it needs to open the “gate”, from your bones to keep the heart pumping, the muscles contracting, the neurons firing in the brain, the endocrine, respiratory and digestive systems working. When the bones run low on minerals (i.e.osteopenia then osteoporosis) the body’s other processes suffer and cramping etc start happening. The cure is not a banana or magnesium etc lol, that is temporary. The solution lies in the digestion. That’s it in a nutshell If you want to learn more or start to reverse aging, please schedule an online live virtual teledoc appointment or a phone cal...

Papaya / Banana Pudding - Good for the Gut (and so much more) !

Image
Even as health therapist, we can run into health issues. Recently, I had been having some digestive issues and I have been trying all the things I could think of, to no avail. I knew I was missing something so being a good Chinese Medical Therapist, I sought out another Chinese Medical Therapist who just happen to also be a food therapy geek, like me, and told me about his Papaya and Banana smoothie. I went home and blended up 1/2 of large papaya (with the seeds) and a whole banana in my 3 HP Blender which made a nice pudding. BTW, you DO want to eat this on an empty stomach, you do not want to blend it until it is warm or it might damage the enzymes. Blend just enough to make it creamy and break up the seeds a bit. Also do not add or drink water with or after. This Papaya seeds are a bit spicy so only add a few if "spicy" is not your thing...I used most of the seeds and loved the spicy kick. Also the seeds have so many benefits you HAVE to include some :) You can always lear...
