Massage Therapy as a part of your health-care regime...
Wondering why say "yes" to a massage?
The pros far out-weigh the cons when it concerns your everyday health and well-being.
Here are just a few good reasons to make massage therapy a part of your regular routine to take care of yourself...
*Reduce Pain *Reduce Stress *Increase Relaxation *Reduce Fatigue *Lower Heart Rate *Stimulate Lymph System *Reduce Muscle Tension *Lower Blood Pressure *Increase Blood Circulation *Reduce Anxiety *Increase Endorphin Levels *Reduce Numbness/Tingling *Reduce Muscle Adhesions *Promote Toxin Elimination *Reduce Muscle Scar Tissue *Reduce Muscle Spams *Improve Muscle Tone *Reduce Tender Points *Reduce Trigger Points *Improve Joint Function & *Increase Joint Range of Motion

September 2009The last days of summer...I can't believe how fast our summer has passed. I think the best part of summer is all the fantastic varieties of fruits available. I hope all of you enjoy a well deserved holiday to celebrate your hard labors all year. Have a safe and fun Labor Day! "On my planet, we're all ponies, eat rainbows and poop butterflies." ~Horton Hears a Who
I will not have any essential oil classes for September.
For those that are planning on taking the Seasonal Cleansing class that begins in October, I suggest that you get your supplements this month. I have already seen "out of stock" on some of the Young Living items that are needed. The first segment of this Seasonal Cleansing takes approximately two months for the average person. I have calculated out how much of each item that is needed for this two months. (keep in mind that some people will take a longer time to achieve their goal and others may take less than two months to achieve their goal.)
Cleansing Trio Kit 2 ComforTone 2 * ICP 4 * * these are in addition to what is in the Cleansing Trio Kits.
Please call or email me if you are attending this course. Seating is limited and I also have to make sure I have enough informational handouts for all in attendance.
The following messages are again about the swine flu vaccine. This message has a video and written informational warnings. Please do not subject your children to this government "experiment" as they return to school. I also urge you to not allow these poisons and hyped-up viruses to be injected into your own body. Did You Know? - A "pandemic" is when hundreds of thousands of people are wiped out due to a rampant spread of disease across continents WORLD-WIDE. To date, this second "swine flu" outbreak has only killed a few hundred people and in very select areas. (and it was caused by the vaccine itself!) More people worldwide die each year of the regular influenza and the U.S. has done nothing about this--not even to call it a pandemic!
- NO government organization can predict a pandemic, EVER!
- In the natural world: bird, pig and people DNA will not mutate together. Laws of nature have prevented this from happening! (i.e.: By Divine Design!!!!) This "swine flu" has been laboratory engineered.
- Other countries have already begun the mass vaccination process and people are dying! The toxins (squalene, thimerosal), heavy metals (aluminum, mercury), and adjuvants (many of them are highly toxic to the human body) in this vaccine carry serious health issues to the neurological, muscluar and immune systems. And...
- Vaccine makers get legal immunity for any injuries or harm that these vaccines may cause you. The U.S. Government still has not settled the lawsuits from the 1960's when they first vaccinated against the swine flu.
Educate before you Vaccinate I do wish to post a reminder here that if you are experiencing any cold or flu like symptoms a few days before or the day of your scheduled massage, please call me and let me know. I would very much prefer that you stay home and get well rather than exposing healthy people to the virus. Unless, of course you wish to request a Raindrop Treatment add-on to your massage! This is an excellent way to boost your immune system for prevention of colds and flu. Raindrop Treatments have also been advantageous in helping to reduce symptoms and duration of colds and flu after you already catch them. I will also be diffusing air purifying essential oils at both locations for all of our protection.
I have one new addition this month to my website on the last page entitled "Favorite links and other service providers". Please Welcome Yesenia Solis. She cleans houses and does an excellent thorough job for me twice a month. You will find her posted on me website under Beau's Favorite Provider of Other Services with her picture and contact information. I have no new additions to my Partner Sponsor list. These are local businesses that have my massage brochures and business cards on the premises. Please visit my website and have a peek. I hope you will also patronize these most excellent service providers and while you are there, fill out a ticket for my monthly "Win a Massage Drawing". Every time you patronize my Sponsor Partners, you are eligible to enter another ticket for the monthly drawing. Good Luck. I hope you're one of the winners! EVERY month at the end of
each month I will draw one entry ticket from each Sponsor Partner facility. The winners
of the drawings will be receiving a special e-mail with an attached
certificate for a free massage. Wishing you and all your loved ones continued good health and blessings in abundance. ~Beau * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
I thought I would share with you some ways that silver dollars have traditionally been used (besides for every day currency before the days of fiat paper money). *Tooth Fairy money *Christmas Stocking Stuffer *The Bride keeps one in her shoe on her wedding day *Drop one in the Bride's money bag while the couple have the first dance *New Born Baby (for baby or Mom) *Birthdays *Any time a "piggy bank" is given as a gift, the pig is passed around to the party guests to be filled with silver *Graduations *Hide one in a plastic colored egg for Easter *Rewards for a good report card from school *Just to collect! For more information on these beautiful silver coins and how to get them for free, please visit my website. Page five has a link for your easy access. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 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.

If I get too many spam notices on my account, Constant Contact will discontinue my membership. I thank you for your co-operation in this matter. |
(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: Common Sense Flu Prevention
There is so much scare-mongering going on in the mainstream media concerning the up-coming flu season. It is my intention to offer a practical view of how to take care of yourself and your family to minimize the possibility of exposing you and yours to this illness.
Many people contract Influenza every year. There is not an official "season" to catch this "bug". These germs are with us year round. What makes humans more susceptible in the winter time to get sick with the flu is that we have less sunshine (a drop in our vitamin D levels) and we are indoors and in close contact with other carriers (not outside as much, contact surfaces not kept clean).
I personally have never had a flu shot in my life. I have caught the flu twice. And from what I learned, my flu symptoms were far less debilitating than those that caught the flu AFTER taking the flu shot! It has been documented that those who develop antibodies from catching the flu naturally are way better health-wise in the long term scope of longevity than those that develop antibodies from the flu vaccine.
It is also fact that the elderly, the very young and those with compromised immune systems are the people most likely to catch the flu. But it has also been documented that normal, healthy, strong children, teens and adults do sometimes catch the flu....
Here are some common sense tips that we hear EVERY year and I can think of no better advice today...- Wash your
hands. Keep them clean and away from your face.
- Cough or sneeze into your sleeve, not your hands if you do not have a tissue available.
- Avoid crowds if
possible. When not possible, (as in airports and airplanes, hospitals, movie theatres, etc.) wear a disposable surgical mask)
- Keep your hands to yourself in and on public transportation facilities. (wear mask here too)
- Wipe down the surfaces of your work area with antimicrobial cloths DAILY (at the beginning of your day when you first arrive). This includes your computer keyboard, mouse, telephone(number pad as well as the hand set and the hand set cradle), door knob, chair arm rests, etc
- If allowable, use a diffuser in your office on low filled with an antimicrobial disinfectant that will keep your air pure and clean.
Children returning to school are being exposed to as much as 30X more germs. High schoolers up to 7x more than grade school kids....as each class is in a different room. Having your child be mindful of keeping their hands clean and away from their face and wiping down their desk before each class are good habits of prevention.
Eat healthy, wholesome foods. Stay away from the junk foods and fast foods. Increase your Vitamin D intake, decrease your white (cane) sugar intake. Dress accordingly for the weather. Layer clothing if uncertain.
Keep the home front clean and sanitary too. The bathroom, kitchen and common living areas especially.
Remember the SARS virus from 2003? As SARS is a coronavirus
and closely related to the virus that causes flu and colds, it is recommended to blend (an aromatherapist can do this for you) the following essential oils:
Cymbopogon
martini (palma rosa), Ravensara
aromatica, Lavandula augustifolia, Eucalyptus
globulus.
Place a couple of drops on a handkerchief and inhale deeply
every half an hour or so. This is particularly important when you are flying or
in any crowded environment! --put a few drops on the inside of your mask and you are good to go with no worries. Blend 5-6 drops into a spray bottle of water and spritz a few squirts onto a paper towel to use to wipe down surfaces that you are in constant contact at work. You may also use this formula in a diffuser (one that is not requiring a tea candle flame)
An excellent pre-blended formula by the name of Thieves is perfect for prevention. It may be used in all of the above recommendations and you may also wear this as a perfume. One drop at the throat, over the laranyx 2 - 3 times each day is a constant way to keep your air and air-ways pure and clean and harmful microbial free.
Three Thousand years ago, essential oils were effective in the use of health care, they will be effective now, and for sure they will be effective far into the future.
It is becoming more
and more important to take responsibility for our own health. Young
Living Essential oils are therapeutic grade essential oils. Plants,
Purity, Preparation & Potency is Young Living's "PROMISES" to you
for wellness, purpose and abundance. Please visit Essentialeverydayoils.com to order your essential oils. You can get this ideal diffuser at this site too.  #4456 Ultrasonic Diffuser

Have you been in a vehicular collision? (the DMV does not all them "accidents" anymore!)
Are you experiencing headaches, neck pain, back pain, arm or leg pain?
Did you know that in most cases your auto insurance will cover 100% of your chiropractic care without a referral from a medical doctor? Your chiropractic provider can refer you for massage therapy which may also be 100% covered by your auto insurance. 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. |
