Becoming A Certified Reflexologist
Reflexology is something I've used and loved since I was 8 years old. I began learning about Reflexology when my aunt bought me a book by Mildred Carter - whom I consider to be the mother of American Reflexology. Eunice Ingham is the woman who took zone therapy even further - mapping reflex points in the feet and building the first Reflexology educational institution. She is, without a doubt, the mother of Reflexology. However, Mildred Carter brought this healing method to the people here in the United States. Her straight-forward, no-nonsense, easy to understand books (Body Reflexology, Hand Reflexology and Foot Reflexology) gave everyone, from doctors to mechanics and housewives, a viable, effective way to enhance the health of themselves and their families. Carter, now 93 years of age, is still going strong and practicing what she has preached for decades - Reflexology works. I received my first certification in Reflexology from a very solid school in the UK. Then, through coincidence (or synchronicity!), I came in contact with Dr. Zachary Brinkerhoff of the Modern Institute of Reflexology in Denver, CO. He practices what he terms "Full Spectrum Reflexology" - using hands, near-infrared light and tools such as the 'Drummer'. I am almost at the end of my training with him, and, have to say that the addition of light and percussion instruments makes a HUGE difference in the effectiveness of Reflexology treatments. Mildred Carter, my childhood Reflexology heroine, is on the Advisory Board for the Modern Institute of Reflexology - that, to me, shows much as to the institute's credibility, effectiveness and ethics. So, if you are considering the study of Reflexology, take the time to check out the home-study course at the Modern Institute of Reflexology. It has my recommendation, and more importantly, the support and knowledge of the 'American Mother of Reflexology' - Mildred Carter. Dee is a Certified Aromatherapist, Certified Reflexologist, and Reiki Master. Her site is AkobiAromas.com - a source of quality aromatherapy, herbal and reflexology information and products.

All of us visit some sort of medical office from time to time and some of us make the visit a routine. No matter how many times we go in for a checkup or treatment we usually end up paying a relatively inexpensive co-pay for the services rendered to us. So who makes up the difference and how do they pay it? Obviously, the doctors and nurses that we visit are not making a living off of our co-pay; so how do they obtain the additional money from our heath care provider? In this article, I will tell you the basic information about CPT Codes and what they are used for.

In practice this starts as the observation of the moral choices people make and the reasons given for these choices. Ethical thinking is then responsible for producing theories about what is, or should be, the basis for moral choice. In the case of a practicing hypno-psychotherapist the main place for ethical consideration concerns questions of what expectations clients can have ? basically the laws which govern the therapist, and the rights of the client.

Using Asian Herbal Combinations for Treating Hemorrhoids Asian Herbs What Is Reflexology? For the Reflexologist, the feet are a microcosm of the human body and every organ and body part is represented in the feet. Where there are two organs in the body they will be represented on both feet, e.g. lungs and kidney and where there is only one organ, this will be represented on one foot, e.g. the liver will be on the right foot while the heart will be on the left. Where the organ or body part is reflected in the feet, this is called the "organ" reflex, e.g. the heart reflex. Diet Food Stinks! One big thing that can keep you from eating healthy is the idea of the food. People often think it sucks and doesn't taste good. That is the best thing of not dieting, the food tastes great.

The Importance of a Parasite Cleanse A parasite cleanse is required if your body is overburdened with other toxins. A parasite is an organism that derives its food, nutrition and shelter by living in or on another organism. Therefore, by its very nature, it robs nutrients from its host and, by its very existence, it deflects the host's immune system from warding off disease. Within the broad term "parasite", a range of creatures can fall ? worms, flukes, mites, yeast, bacteria and viruses, just to name a few. While your first reaction maybe one of disgust, keep in mind that your body does need certain beneficial bacteria in the digestive tract to keep your system in balance. Ever had a yeast infection? This is when the parasitic yeasts have overwhelmed the beneficial yeasts, most often with the assistance of what has become our annual dose of antibiotics.

Just The Tea FAQs: Health Benefits (Part II) A hot cup of tea might be just the thing to soothe a sore throat, warm the body, or relax with after a stress-filled day. But tea is more than just a comfort drink. Its healthful properties make it a smart choice for just about everyone. Tea has been used as a medicine in other cultures for many years, but it has only recently gained a great deal of media attention for the many nutritional benefits it offers. Whipped Shea Butter & Its Many Uses Shea butter, also referred to as karite, which means "life" has been used across the African continent for centuries. It hails from Central and Western Africa. It's actually a nut fat, as it's obtained from the fruit of the kernel. Shea nuts are picked by women, then par-boiled, and sun-dried for a week in order to dehydrate the nut. This increases their storage time. The next step is to crush the dried fruit, in order to remove the skin. When the shea butter is hand crushed like this, it retains all its numerous vitamins and minerals and the nutty, smoky scent is naturally preserved. The color ranges from off white to gray to golden brown to green, depending upon the maturity of the nut. It's always refined at least once, in order to remove dirt, bits of gourd, or leaves, objects that would not be fun to apply to your skin.

Modern studies explicitly show that specific sounds and music do in fact, have documented, measurable and multiple healing benefits. Today's medicine understands that all bodily functions, like breathing and pulse, work cyclically and rhythmically. It is these rhythms that are influenced and synchronized with certain music and sound patterns.
