As two health care professionals, a former scientist from the pharmaceutical industry and a health educator for the State we can attest to the difficulties facing those in this country on a daily basis. We encourage our clients to see that there's something they can do to make a difference in the way they look, feel and thin. Tending to the foundation of health is a responsibility for addressing the root cause, not just the symptoms. Modern medicine is a necessity, however it shouldn't be relied upon for maintaining a foundation of health, -food, exercise and "right thinking" are the keys. We focus on system specific nutrition and education to empower the body and mind. We spend time deciphering the fears that educators, doctors and the TV have put into the heads of many. An important part of healing is learning to listen to your inner voice and knowing that the body performs miracles every day. Healing is an adventure! A person's illness is the beginning of their journey into the discovery of what it is for them to become healthier. Illness is our body trying to teach us how to be well, answer the call, but let's not just feel good, let's thrive & show others there is another way. A major health problem exists today......stress! Colon issues, ulcers, digestive disorders, hypoglycemia, and nervous breakdowns are just some of the stress-related afflictions that result from our contemporary lifestyle. Everything is so fast-paced; instant information. These stressors put an unusual strain on the body, causing poor digestion, muscle tension, and many related problems. There is frustration. We're losing control. As the problems continue to rise, they interfere with the body's normal function and we get sick. At this stage the pharmaceutical drugs can be a god-send. All systems must work together for a healthy body. It won't happen unless the digestive system, nervous system, and all mental and emotional systems are operating in harmony with each other. If any one of these systems are functioning poorly, it causes strain on the other systems. We must think of the body as a whole and observe the interaction of all body systems. Maintaining health means dealing with the body as a whole system. For the last 50 years, orthodox medicine has treated disease with an allopathic (lots of specialists) approach. For headaches, 47 varieties of aspirin. If we get an infection, bring on the antibiotics. For cancer, try radiation, chemotherapy, or even surgery. This is the way modern medicine treats disease, by attacking the system. The natural healthcare practitioner, on the other hand, treats health as a state of constant renewal and regeneration; here-in lies our desire to work with holistic practitioners and the individual ready to change their life. Health won't happen on its own, you have to make the choice... 90% of the diseases affecting humans are degenerative diseases resulting from the body's life-sustaining processes of defense not being able to overcome the modern day influences like pesticides, depleted soils, chemical agriculture, processed foods, dirty air, heavy metals, contaminated water, bar code convenience foods and stress. There is no virus, "bug", or outside invader for modern medicine to conquer. The problem is within the body and the answer lies in restoring the processes of good health. We must take responsibility for our own lives and our own bodies. Whether a minor headache or a cancerous tumor, it is up to each of us to find the imbalances indicated and restore our body to overall good health. The only one that can cure us is ourselves.

If you have a medical emergency, see a qualified health practitioner. If you have a chronic condition that does not require emergency procedures, complement any medical help you’re receiving by reducing, or eliminating, the unhealthy elements of your lifestyle-undue stress, excessive salt intake, fatty foods, sweets, smoking, etc-you know what they are! You should also start immediately attending to the foundation of your health by incorporating whole, balanced foods into your diet. Building a foundation of good health is not only good common sense, but a responsibility of ours in light of those who may be called to care for us. |
