Mitochondria?

Mitochondria are the power stations of your body. They are in most of your cells and produce energy for all actions in your body. Exercise has direct results on how many mitochondria there are in each cell, especially muscle cells. Basically the more exercise you do, the more mitochondria you have, the more energy you have available so you can achieve so much more during the day. This process is more commonly known as METABOLISM. You can find out more from David Brownley, Personal Trainer at the Fitness works.

Herbs for Hypertension

Hypertension is high blood pressure. When blood pressure is measured it is given two numbers and normal blood pressure is around 120/80.

Anything over 140/100 is considered to high. Many factors such as stress, smoking, weight problems, excess coffee and alcohol, and high cholesterol are all considered to affect blood pressure. Any programme to reduce blood pressure will always look at lifestyle and diet factors.

However a number of herbs can help with general cardiac health as well as specifically hypertension, and is one of the most common reasons people seek the help of the herbalist.

Hawthorn is the supreme cardiac herb, that can be taken safely long term. However the individual case will determine the exact combination of herbs prescribed, and could include Mistletoe, Dandelion, Motherwort, Lime Flower and Yarrow.

What treatments could help tennis elbow?

A herbalist can prescribe a mixture of herbs that can give relief. These will be a combination of anti inflammatory and analgesic herbs but in the long term the use of herbs that take the fluid away and boost the circulation to that area along with diuretics will help to extend the periods between flare up until hopefully a more stable condition is reached.

Exercise can be effective to reduce the long term effects of tennis elbow. It works by increasing the strength of the muscles in the upper wrist and bicep to stabalize the joint whilst it is being used. Doing low resistance, high repetition exercises on these muscles groups increase blood flow, speeds up the healing process and reduces fluid on the joint.

Help on passing driving Test

Marry was 45 and had taken her driving test seven times over the years and had decided that if she failed this one she would give up driving. Working with Mary and redressing her pass failures boosting her confidence through various visualisation techniques to such a degree that in her mind she had seen herself passing her driving test over and over again she was able to take her next test and pass with flying colours.
This was achieved by Douglas Craddock's therapeutic skills in hypnotherapy.

Help and advice on Stuttering

Alan aged 36 came to see Douglas Craddock to help with his stutter. He was looking for promotion in his work which meant that he would have to from time to time deliver briefings to staff members or more senior managers within the company he worked in. Even though his stutter was not as noticeable at times, at other times it could be quite severe. Sessions one was to be an exploratory session to see if we could establish where the stutter originated, and during this session Alan was able to recall without stuttering the true origin of his problem.

Cancer patients improve from receiving colon hydrtherapy

I have found over the years that cancer patients who are not doing well usually are toxic and not being cleansed. They certainly are in need of colon hydrotherapy, advisers oncologist and homeopath Douglas Brodie,MD of Reno, Nevada Dr Brodie has developed CAM methods for treating cancer and other degenerative diseases aimed at strengthening the immune system.
He emphasizes natural approaches to these conditions with colon hydrotherapy being among them.

I do recommend that most of my cancer patients take colon hydrotherapy or colonic irrigations because they often improve by having such treatment. Liver cancer in particular shows benefit from colon hydrotherapy, but any internal tumors show effectual change too, Dr Brodie says Its better than a enema which is merely a lower bowel cleanse, as opposed to a colonic which is a through cleanse of the entire bowel. Its similar to comparing the diagnostic efficacy of a sigmoidoscopy of the short end of the bowel to a colonoscopy which takes in the whole bowel.

A enema only goes so far. Colon hydrotherapy is the est cleansing and detoxifier for the gastrointestinal tract that anybody would want. I do promote its use.
