My gratitude in being able to serve you and help you is as gold!  My St. Patrick card for you!Please remember, when you call to schedule your massage appointment, let me know if you are wanting to redeem any discount coupons, gift certificates, complementary promotionals, or take advantage of any specials I might be offering for the current month. I will only be conducting one Essential Oil Funshop in March. This class will be at Dr. Reddin's office from 3:00pm - 5:00pm. Classes (funshops) are free. This month I am teaching the Everyday Oils kit. You will be learning the therapeutic properties of these oils and how they may benefit your health and well-being with everyday use. There are 2 more oils in the Everyday Oils kit than there are in the Essential 7 kit with one oil being changed out to make it 3 different oils that we will be learning about. The month of April I will be presenting a different perspective on Depression & Anxiety and how essential oils can help you to overcome these debilitating stresses on the body, mind and spirit. 3/14/09 Frankinsence, Theives and Valor 4/11/09 Depression and Anxiety  You will need to purchase your Everyday Oils kit and bring it with you to the funshop for March. You do not need any supplies with you for the April funshop. (this presentation is highly informative) You will also need to have paper and pencil to take notes. Please call me or email me to let me know you wish to attend (and if you wish to bring a guest) as there is limited seating. Feel free to click on the following link to watch an introduction of Young Living Essential Oils. Cold and flu season is
still upon us. Lots of "head" colds (sinus infections) are going around. These can develope into bronchial troubles. Raindrop Treatments (RDT) may help you overcome the
tiredness, constant fatigue and lack of energy as well as promote the
immune system. Many of the essential oils used in RDT are very effective in treating breathing difficulties and issues that relate to the lungs. I love receiving Raindrop Treatments. Afterwards, I feel full of energy for days. The essential oils used in the Raindrop Treatments are anti-microbial, anti-bacterial, anti-viral, anti-fungal (along with many other healthy benefits) and I know that I am helping my body to fight any cold or flu bug that I have been exposed to. A Full description of my Raindrop Therapy Massage is available on my website.  Have you been watching the price of an ounce of silver ride a roller coaster? Today's unstable economy is a concern for us all. (On 2/20/09, silver increased to $14.41. Gold increased the same day by $25.70 bringing it to a whopping $1,002.20 per troy ounce.) I just have to continue to share this with you... Silver Eagle Dollars are
REAL money unlike Federal Reserve Notes (paper currency) and are a store
of value that is not subject to inflation.
In fact, with the ever-increasing inflation and debasement of the paper
currency, precious metals such as gold and silver (real money) are the best way
to accumulate and protect your wealth.
Plus, getting these beautiful silver coins in the mail is just plain
fun! DID YOU KNOW? : Where is the FDA on this one? Are we being poisoned intentionally? Please read this story: Heavy Metal: MercuryMy son (a very wise child, indeed) with the powers of observation as his teacher, accused me one day of ordering french fries just so I could have the ketchup. I could not argue. I just grinned as I dipped another fry into the luscious sweet tomato sauce and ate it. Methinks the french fry dipping days are done. :)
I will continue to send out this monthly promotional featuring the current special I might be offering, letting you know about any new services or products being offered, and making announcements of anything new at White Dragon Therapies.

I ask that you please do not click the spam button on your computer to discontinue receiving these newsletters. If I get too many spam notices on my account, Constant Contact will discontinue my membership.

(keep in mind that a massage therapist
is NOT a physician. I am not qualified to diagnose or prescribe. I am
however able to asses and provide self care suggestions and refer clients to specialists. So, with this
in mind here we go...)
Pathology Insight: Depression, Anxiety
& Stress
Physical pain. Extended and chronic pain can lead to psychological depression. The physical body can only take so much constant pain, regardless of the level of pain. Eventually, it is going to effect the brain (overload on receiving pain signals) and take a toll on the mental capabilities.
Anxiety. A constant strain on the mind (catastrophizing) [yes, that is a word! I found it being used in several other published articles while I was gathering information for this month's transmits pathology column] and transmits to a nervous stress, causing a decrease in the level of health for the physical body, which in turn can throw it back into physical pain and drain the mental and spiritual capacities to deal with anything more.
Stress. Presents in the form of physical, mental or emotional. As humans, it is difficult to separate these 3. We have to treat all forms simultaneously in order to heal the body of this ailment. The body withstands a tremendous amount of abuse on a daily basis. We can't help it...we live in an environment that hits us from all sides. Needless to say, stress, be it from our surroundings at work or home, worry, insomnia, pain, anxiety and stress will most assuredly lead to depression.
There are several types of depression categories. Situational, Family of origin, Moderate, Severe and Chronic. I can not precisely explain what psychotherapy drugs or psychotropic medications are treating, but I can explain how massage therapy could help alleviate the need for these unnatural chemicals to be ingested into the body, causing other physical problems. With depression, the body suffers a structural collapse. The "protect me" mode takes over and the body starts to fold in upon itself. (a perfectly natural response to stress, by the way!) This involves the abdominal muscles contracting, the pulling down of the chest by the tightening of the diaphragmactic arch, the hunching of the shoulders causing a forward rotation and the upper back rolling forward over the heart. (you get the picture of a person curling up into a fetal position) With the upper body in distress, the lower body follows suit and also becomes distorted. In a very short order, the body finds itself in a full blown "I need help now" situation.
Massage Therapy releases the structural collapse associated with depression and brings the body from hopeless and helpless to supported and erect. The sense of support leads to feelings of being stronger and capable of dealing with the issues that brought on the depression. Releasing structural collapse allows the body to energize itself. The body now has the fuel help itself and is capable of stopping the negative signals to the brain. The body is now empowered to take part in life again and assist the mind and spirit to move out of depression.
If you have a pathology topic that you would like me
to comment on, please email me. I would be most happy to write about
what any of you want to know about and how massage therapy may help you. |
