How To Take Care Of Yourself And Get Rid Of Pain
Would you like to be and to stay healthy and well? How about growing older without aches and pains? Would you like to start healing now?
You can! Bodies can and do heal all the time. That includes YOUR body. 
Preventative medicine is often thought to mean vaccines, medicines and treatments. It’s actually much more than that.
I love this quote about prevention:
“Prevention is the highest form of healing and surgery should always be considered the last resort.”
That’s on the back cover of a comprehensive book about eye care called “The Eye Care Sourcebook” by Jay B. Lavine, M.D.
And it’s true!
What does prevention mean? It means taking care of yourself. It means getting rid Read the rest of this entry »
What Is The REAL Cause Of Your Pain
The real cause of your pain depends on whom you ask.
There are medical professionals who will say your pain may be caused by pressure on nerves. Yes but what is causing the pressure? Bones don’t move on their own and neither do discs.
There are professionals who will link your pain to muscles. Yes but why are your muscles so unhappy that Read the rest of this entry »
Interview With Dr. Brian Rothbart, Pain Relief Specialist
Dr. Brian Rothbart is a researcher and professor who discovered that something happening in your feet may be causing your chronic pain. Pretty interesting stuff!
I had the honor to interview Dr. Rothbart, who is a pain relief expert. Note: Not a pain management specialist but a pain relief specialist.
You can listen to the replay of the interview here: http://budurl.com/Rothbart
I love it when Dr. Rothbart says that by getting rid of the cause of your pain you can get rid of your pain. You bet!
That’s pretty much what most of the conventional medical field is missing. They too often treat symptoms instead of getting to the source–the cause–and getting rid of it.
Enjoy the replay of the interview with Dr. Rothbart and leave your comments here afterward. I’d love to know what you think.
Arthritis At The Joint Of The Thumb
You have pain in the base of your thumb. Is it arthritis? Is it a problem with the bones?
Or could it be a muscle issue?
The good news is:
Most of the time pain is caused by muscles. That’s good news because muscles can be treated with massage and pressure and they can get better. When your muscles are happy, your pain goes away.
But that’s my opinion. And the opinion of lots of great minds in the bodywork & natural medicine fields. In fact, I learned it from them.
Here’s an article (<–click here) from a conventional medical doctor.
It’s an interesting article for several reasons. One of the reasons that Read the rest of this entry »
Is Aspartame Bad?
Wondering whether aspartame, an artificial sweetener, is bad for you? Here’s my opinion: You bet!
And here’s another opinion (click here–>): Christian Goodman
Years ago a client told me she had gone to a dentist who practiced headache and migraine relief. He told her quit drinking diet soft drinks and if her headaches went away she would not owe him anything.
They went away.
Better living through chemistry? Not necessarily.
Take care of your body and give it the good fuel it deserves. Why?
Because you deserve to feel better.
Don’t Leave Your Brain Behind–It Can Go Forever
The Decade of the Brain was declared for the 1990′s by President Bush. And what a decade it has been! Tremendous research results show two very important things about YOUR brain.
1. Your brain is “plastic.” It’s known now to be more flexible (plastic) and changeable than we knew before. It turns out it can actually grow new cells and Read the rest of this entry »

Natural Cure for Scoliosis
Is there a natural cure for scoliosis?
Here’s the background. Scoliosis is curvature of the spine. There may be 2 or more curves and the curves can go from side-to-side or front-to-back. Twists or rotations are often involved.
Some doctors or therapists may say you have only one curve (a “C” curve) but if it is happening in your back it is also happening in the spine of your neck in reverse. It has to. That’s how bodies work. That’s why I said “2 or more curves.” That is called an “S” curve.
You can also have an “S” curve in your back spine and again in your neck spine. There are all kinds of variations of scoliosis.
Depending which medical professional or muscle therapist you see, you may get different answers to your question about getting rid of your scoliosis naturally. It depends on their knowledge, skill level and abilities.
Is he or she a doctor? Massage therapist? Physio or physical therapist? Different therapists have different training (or lack of) and different ideas.
Someone who specializes in surgery may tell you that surgery is the only answer (at some point.) A massage therapist who practices only relaxation-type massage may say there is nothing that can be done. Ditto your family doctor.
Here is my own personal experience getting rid of scoliosis.
