Tea Tree Oil

This is something I always take with me on holiday. Tea tree oil is good for using externally (only) on the skin, scalp and nails. It helps clear certain bacteria, viruses and fungi. It also helps to clear those small red 'sweat' spots , blocked hair follicles and sweat rash after a few days of use. I also apply it on my arms and legs as an alternative to insect repellant and even if you get a bug bite, tea tree oil will help with the inflammation and itching.

Tea tree oil can be used to treat and disinfect minor cuts. A few years ago, I used tea tree oil effectively on my younger son's smelly feet!!!

Rotator Cuff Tendonitis

Commonly a repetitive strain injury to the tendons that join the top of the arm. Often painful when the arm is raised above 90 degrees. Good ways to help

1) Alternate ice and heat packs for 20 minutes at the front of the shoulder.
2) Massage the middle of the upper trapezius muscle.
3) Massage the neck as the nerves control the shoulder
4) Do exercises with the arm that involve pulling down.
5) Avoid lifting, sleeping on the painful shoulder or shrugging the shoulder.

Hope that helps

Top Tips for Tennis Elbow

This is the overuse/repetitive injury in the muscles and tendons on the outside of the elbow.

Spend 2 minutes, twice a day massaging:-

1) The painful area on the outside of the elbow to encourage blood flow and healing in the area.
2) The equilvalent area on the inside of the elbow. There will be a painful knot there which needs to be broken down.
3) The back of the neck on the same side as the painful elbow. The nerve signals from the neck control the arm.
Hope that helps!

Intermittent Fasting

It's all Win Win Win!

With longer periods between meals, the body will draw on stored fat for energy. This prevents blood sugar spikes and helps maintain more even blood sugar levels.

Reducing sugar spikes reduces inflammation in 'the body'.

Long periods between meals gives the digestive system a rest and allows the body to detox and repair.

As we enter into spring, we are going to talk about a few health benefits of some spring vegetables, starting with Rhubarb!
The edible part of Rhubarb - the stalk - contains anthocyanins, which are a type of flavonoid that acts as antioxidants. Rhubarb is also a great source of vitamin K1, which is important for blood clotting and bone health.

A day late to wish all the Moms, Mother figures, and Moms to be, Happy Mother’s Day. But we would also like to wish everyone who is celebrating Eid a Happy Eid al-Fitr. Hope we all had some joyful moments of celebration; and if you think anybody needs a gift of spinal realignment, why not give us a ring and let us give them a hand?

Did you know that February is heart month? Even though the month is coming to an end, we still need to be reminded to take care of our hearts! Herbs that help with circulation in our body are ginseng, ginger and cloves. It is also recommended to do 150 minutes of moderate intensity exercises (such as water aerobics, riding a bike, hiking, dancing, etc) a week to have a healthy cardiovascular system. Let’s keep our circulation going and keep our hearts strong! ♥️

February comes from the Latin word februa, which means “to cleanse.”

It was named after Februalia, the Roman festival of purification, which was a month-long festival of purification and atonement that took place this time of year
