A Holistic Look at Anxiety and Panic Attacks

Many people who suffer from anxiety or panic attacks have a genetic predisposition that affects them more easily than others. The response from most primary care physicians is to prescribe them with anti anxiety medications that only mask the symptoms. Although the medication can help calm the individual down, unless the cause of the anxiety is actually addressed, the anxiety or panic attack may worsen even while taking medication. Therefore, it is important to take a closer look at our life circumstances or our mental habits to determine what's actually causing the anxiety. Once we have determined the cause, we can then work on undoing or tending to the anxiety through many different methods. Anxiety and panic attacks are not a life sentence. You can free yourself from it today!

Moving Cupping Therapy

Moving Cupping is very similar to Fire Cupping except that oil is applied to the body and only one or two cups are used. Heat is added to the cup in the same manner and the cup is used to glide over the body. With moving cupping, the cup is constantly moved around which can be deeply soothing and relaxing. Because the cups are not stationary, there are no round, "pepperoni" marks produced. Moving cupping is great for stress and anxiety, pain relief, and to increase circulation. For chronic pain, detoxing, or boosting immune system, fire cupping therapy is recommended over moving cupping.

Fire Cupping Therapy

There are a few different ways of doing cupping therapy. Although they achieve nearly the same results, these hand crafted ceramic cups are unique in that they contain Germanium which creates far infrared heat. This allows for greater reduction in inflammation, pain relief, and deeper penetration of the heat.

Cupping therapy helps restore circulation and detoxes the body. The heat placed inside the cups, suctions the body which opens up the pores, and forces stagnant blood to rise to the surface. This is what causes the bruising; and the darker spots usually indicates an area of more stagnation. By sucking the stagnant blood to the surface, it allows new blood to circulate underneath the area. The bruising often goes away within a few days. Cupping therapy is not painful at all lasting about 5 minutes, and most people report feeling deeply relaxed and refreshed.

Our Body is a Vehicle. How Well Do You Drive it?

How much are you willing to invest in your body and self? We spend so much time and money in material goods but we often times overlook our self care. It is no wonder we are in dis-ease and out of alignment. Without our health, we are unable to enjoy the hard earned money, or the loving relationships that we hold dearly. But when we start taking care of our bodies, the same way we take care of the things that are important in our lives, life becomes more balanced and our mind and body begin to work together. When this happens, we can create anything we want in life. This is the kind of life we were meant to lead.
