Scientific Research Into How Tai Chi can Benefit People with Chronic Heart Disease.
By:
Kat
Sunday, Jan 15, 2012
Conditions:
Chronic heart disease
Did you know that there is an agency funded by the US government looking at the usefulness and safety of complementary and alternative medicine and their roles in improving health and health care? Their list of scientific studies can be found at http://nccam.nih.gov/research/results/spotlight/ and the list of past studies is absolutely fascinating. One of the studies that caught my eye relates to Tai Chi and the benefits to people with chronic heart disease - http://nccam.nih.gov/research/results/spotlight/042511.htm. “In a 2011 study, researchers at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical ...

Wished a Coach Had Guided Me Through Chronic Illness
By:
Laura Webb
Friday, Jan 13, 2012
I remember the insidiousness of the diseases going back to my twenties - yeah, I was really old. Even as a child, I was not really sickly but there were many days when I didn't feel good and my mom would take my temperature, say I was fine and send me off to school. So having times of feeling tired and crappy for no apparent reason did seem normal to me. When I was first diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Fibromyalgia, I had been feeling poorly for so many years that I just assumed that was what happened when you get old. Imagine my surprise when a new doctor took the time to ask ...

Why I Coach People with Disabilities
By:
Laura Webb
Saturday, Jan 07, 2012
Many years ago, I had reconstructive knee surgery. I lived in Denver at the time (no it wasn't a skiing accident but a feisty horse) and my mom and sister came to visit me for a few days post surgery. We went to a museum and since I was on crutches, I decided to use a wheel chair for the first time. It was long before I was diagnosed with CFS and fibromyaglia and my first experience as less abled than the general public. My sister was my guide through the museum and every time we stopped to view a work of art, people would be careful of my extended leg, swaddled in padding and ace bandages, ...

Advancements in Medicine: Galectin-3 As the Root Cause of Chronic Diseases and How to Control it
By:
Isaac Eliaz
Tuesday, Jan 03, 2012
Conditions:
cancer
The information I am about to share with you represents one of the biggest medical breakthroughs in decades and one that can save your life. It is the direct involvement of a molecule called Galectin-3 in chronic and life-threatening diseases, and how to control it using all natural Modified Citrus Pectin. Galectin-3 can be referred to as a “rogue” molecule in the body, as it is now proven to be a major cause of nearly every chronic disease. From cancer, cardiovascular disease and liver cirrhosis, to arthritis and Alzheimer’s, excess Galectin-3 is at the root, wreaking havoc ...

Transformational Breathwork
By:
VitalityLink Finder
Saturday, Dec 31, 2011
Transformational Breathwork is a powerful self healing and transformational process that opens restricted breathing patterns, integrates emotional suppressions and permanently clears the subconscious mind. It is an advanced science of converting resistance to enthusiasm. Most of our knowledge about the benefits of breathing comes from Ancient Eastern philosophies. The power of conscious breathing has been used in the east as a vehicle for spiritual enlightenment for many centuries. Only recently has interest and research in the mind-body connection developed in the west. From a physical ...

The Emotional Nature of Chronic Pain
By:
VitalityLink Finder
Monday, Dec 26, 2011
More and more research is supporting the idea that back pain has little to no correlation to physical abnormalities like disc problems or arthritis. There are thousands of people walking around with arthritis and a slipped disc that have no pain. Other conditions such as frozen shoulder, bursitis, tendonitis, and carpal tunnel syndrome are known to come with no apparent injury or reason. And often two people with the same injury will heal at very different rates, and feel very different degrees of pain. So the question is…why do some people have chronic pain and some don’t? And ...

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, CFS

The severity of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome symptoms varies greatly among individual cases with more severe cases also showing more intense or changed patterns of headaches, tender lymph nodes and recurring sore ...

Applied Kinesiology and Sports
By:

Wednesday, Dec 21, 2011
An old saying is that knowledge is useless until applied. In developing applied kinesiology (AK), Dr. George Goodheart's genius has been a unique ability to "re-search" basic academic knowledge and convert seemingly unrelated tidbits of information into workable clinical technique. As a keen student of phenomenology, and with what seems to be encyclopedic recall, his skills of observation are reflected in his oft-quoted credo of "Why is that?" His talent for refining clinical concepts has led him to extract and assimilate ideas from the fields of chiropractic, osteopathy, allopathic medicine, ...

Are We Too Clean? The Hygiene Hypothesis
By:
VitalityLink Finder
Wednesday, Dec 21, 2011
The evolving theory of the “hygiene hypothesis” is receiving increasing attention by public health professionals, including epidemiologists who study patterns of health and disease in the population. The hygiene hypothesis contends that by early exposure to a wide variety of microbiological challenges (bacterial, viral, etc.) the immune system develops far more efficiently, thereby lessening the possibilities of numerous allergic, immunological and infectious disease problems throughout our lives. Proponents of the hygiene hypothesis contend that there is an inverse relationship ...
