Do I Have Hearing Loss?

The first noticeable sign of hearing loss is often difficulty in communication between two people. It can be frustrating to both sides when one person is repeating themselves. While communicating with a person who has hearing loss volume is not the biggest concern; speed and articulation of the words are more of a factor. Eye contact, a slightly slower pace of talking and clarity of words is crucial. If you suspect you or a loved one has hearing loss, a hearing professional can help you experience an improved quality of life. Please reach out to us.

Importance of Vitamin B12

Vitamin B12 plays an essential role in red blood cell formation, nerve function, cell metabolism and DNA production. It can be found in meat, poultry, fish and dairy, or as a supplement. Your body can store vitamin B12 for many years so most individuals will not have a B12 deficiency. However, the following people may be more prone to deficiency: vegetarians/vegans, older adults, or people with digestive tract conditions that affect the absorption of nutrients. Vitamin B12 deficiency can lead to fatigue, anemia, muscle weakness, intestinal problems, nerve damage, and mood disturbances. Visit your physician or pharmacist to discuss whether you should be taking a vitamin B12 supplement.

PEMF for Sleep & Insomnia

Sleep disturbances result from various factors such as stress, anxiety, caffeine and alcohol. Normal healthy sleep has well-defined brainwave frequency patterns which include theta (4-7hz when you first fall asleep) and delta (1-4hz about an hour into sleep- the deepest, most restorative sleep). PEMF therapy uses delta settings, before sleep to calm the brain and regulate circadian rhythms. By addressing underlying causes and harnessing innovative therapies, better sleep can be significantly achieved, fostering overall well-being and vitality. FDA has also approved PEMF for depression.

DID YOU KNOW??

Fascia aka connective tissue is a three-dimensional web that spreads throughout the body and surrounds every muscle, bone, nerve, blood vessel and organ. So, when a fascial restriction occurs due to a physical or emotional trauma, or a surgery, there is a binding down of the fascial system. This binding down of the fascia can create tremendous pressure in the body causing pain, limited mobility, and restricted range of motion. If you are struggling with pain or restricted movement, schedule yourself a myofascial release treatment, and get back to moving pain free. Help is just a call away.

Studies tell us that psychological preparation plays a large role in the likelihood of success with smoking cessation.
