On the Air: Oxidative Stress and Your Health

On The Air

Mark your calendars for Thursday, December 1 from 10 to 11 AM. I'll be on "Dial and Speak" with Andrea Fanti, Ph.D on WBTC 1540 AM. The show has been on the air for more than 40 years. Andrea, has a Ph.D. in education and nutrition, has been the host for the last 10 years.

I'll be discussing the impact of oxidative stress on health. I'll share my own observations using the Acugraph on patients taking a natural product proven to reduce oxidative stress. You can get a preview by watching the ABC News Investigative Report at www.abchealthreport.com.

Reiki at Stark State College

For those interested in expanding their therapeutic skills, I'll be teaching a First Degree Reiki seminar at Stark State College in August this year. The Seminar will be Friday and Saturday, August 19 and 20 from 9:30 to 3:30 each day. The course fee is $200.

Reiki (pronounced ray’-key) is a Japanese word meaning Universal Life Energy. The Usui System of Reiki was born out of the experience and dedication of Dr. Mikao Usui in the late 1800’s. It provides a means of accessing and focusing this energy for personal well-being and growth.

Reiki helps balance physical, mental, emotional and spiritual energy. It is a powerful tool for health and wellness, stress reduction and self-care. This natural healing art supports the body’s ability to heal physical ailments and may open the mind to the root causes of disease and pain.

Reiki can be effectively incorporated into the healing arts practiced by massage therapists, nurses, counselors and physicians. Anyone can easily learn to use this holistic tool to create balanced wellness in life.

In the First Degree weekend seminar you will learn the history of Reiki, how to treat yourself and others, and the five precepts of Reiki. This is a relaxed, experiential workshop with time practicing and sharing your experience.

For more information you can contact me at 330-477-0777.

Time for a Tune-up?

I often tell my patients, "Treat yourself at least as well as you treat your car." We routinely get the oil changed every 3,000 miles and get tune ups as suggested by the owners manual. Doing this keeps the car in top shape and helps avoid the unexpected break downs.

Unfortunately the human body didn't come with a maintenance schedule. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, it is well known that a "seasonal" tune up helps maintain optimal health. Fast forward 5,000 years and we have technology that scans the energy systems of the body just like your auto mechanic does for your car. We can then stimulate the acupuncture points that will help the body regain balance and keep you in top form.

If you have not had a Meridian Energy Assessment, the new year is the perfect time to get that information and use it to improve your health. We can also treat using non-needle methods that are effective and gentle.

Call us today at 330-477-0777 to schedule your wellness tune up. Find more info at www.cantonacupuncture.com.

And here's to a healthy and happy New Year!
