San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) February 27, 2012
Throughout the month of March, Remedy Acupuncture Clinic in San Francisco will celebrate Women?s Health Month by exposing women to the Traditional Chinese Medical approach for healing new mothers. The emotional nine months leading up to the birth of a child is filled with anticipation, physical changes, and preparation. By focusing on postpartum and the needs of new mothers, Remedy Acupuncture Clinic seeks to guide women on a path to regain their strength and make healthy decisions for both themselves as well as their child.
Western medicine educates expectant mothers on diet, exercise techniques, prenatal vitamins, and the medical preparations for childbirth. With a stronger emphasis on prenatal care and the first few days after childbirth, the needs of a new mother are often overlooked.
Ashley Callen, an acupuncturist at Remedy Acupuncture Clinic, specializes in women?s health. ?More women need to set themselves up to take care of their bodies after child birth. This can prevent complications down the road like fatigue, lower back pain, and depression,? Callen said.
In honor of Women?s Health Month in March, Remedy Acupuncture Clinic will be opening their doors to the public, giving free consultations to anyone interested in learning more about how TCM can benefit their health. New moms will also receive free Chinese herbs (a blend of walnuts and black sesame seeds) with their first visit.
Traditional Chinese Medicine considers the fourth through sixth weeks after child birth a critical period for a new mother. During this time, women are given an opportunity to heal old injuries and rebuild both body and mind following the strenuous birthing process. This 3000 year old practice bridges the gap to the alternative medical field by bringing traditional knowledge and practices into the modern world.
Remedy Acupuncture Clinic practices Traditional Chinese Medicine through the use of acupuncture, herbal medicine, exercise, massage, and diet to improve the quality of life for their patients. They are located at 703 Market St., Suite 514 in San Francisco.

Manchester, NH (PRWEB) February 24, 2012
Integrity Health Franchises located in southern New Hampshire announces their new synergistic protocol for the treatment of type II diabetes. The program will be available to women living within 30 miles of the Manchester, New Hampshire area. The treatment protocol will last for 60 days and the program will cost $ 59.00, less than a dollar a day.
Participants in the program will receive specific exercise prescription and low glycemic meal planning along with behavioral modification coaching. Integrity franchisor and exercise physiologist Rocco Boulay states; ?The program will address the underlying conditions employing a practical approach that no only educates the individual but also provides a step-by-step solution to getting diabetes under control.?
Today diabetes has grown to over 26 million in children and adults in the United States, that?s over 9% of the population. These 2011 statistics report 19 million have been diagnosed and 7 million currently undiagnosed. To make things more urgent is the fact that there are over 79 million people who are considered ?pre-diabetic?. In other words, these people are on the way to becoming diagnosed diabetics.
The complications related to this epidemic are far reaching. Over 68% of the deaths of people with heart disease and stroke were related to diabetes. Adults 20 years and older with self reported diabetes have high blood pressure in 67% of known cases, or systolic and diastolic pressures of 140/90 mmHg or higher respectively.
Other conditions such as kidney disease, neuropathies, and limb amputations are common to those whose diabetes is neglected or left untreated. The cost of diabetes in the United States in 2007 reached a staggering $ 174 billion with direct costs of $ 116 billion and an indirect cost of $ 58 billion (including disability, loss time at work and premature deaths).
Integrity Health?s vision is to reach out to other health and fitness professionals nation wide and institute their education / treatment protocols for those suffering from this ?treatable? condition with a practical, economical approach.
Boulay concludes, ?It is difficult to make anyone accountable for a condition that?s main cause is attributed to lack of activity and poor food choices. When we provide our citizens with the education and tools necessary to reduce and eradicate this condition [diabetes] then, and only then will we be able to get this epidemic condition under control.”
Those interested in enrolling in the program or other health care providers may contact Integrity Health at 603-668-1001 for more information. http://www.integrityfit.com

Nampa, Idaho (PRWEB) February 24, 2012
HCG Diet weight loss with HCG MAX Diet Plan is now offered through Hands On Health Wellness Center located in Nampa, Idaho. The HCG Diet weight loss program is the newest addition to the Center?s comprehensive offering of services, including Chinese Medicine, Amma Body Work, Colon Hydrotherapy, Zyto Virtual Clinic and Skin Care. Facilitated by the Center?s Certified HCG weight loss Coach, Alisha Smith, the HCG Diet Weight Loss Program incorporates detoxification, diet and nutritional supplementation.
The HCG Diet originated in the 1950?s when a British endocrinologist, Dr. ATW Simeons, began researching the use of hCG and its effect on the hypothalamus gland to help people lose abnormal fat. After years of research with hCG, Dr. Simeons successfully created the HCG Diet Plan to help people lose extraordinary amounts of abnormal fat in a relatively short period of time. While Dr. Simeons? research used injectable hCG, today hCG can be found as either a prescription or a homeopathic and is administered through injections, hCG drops, pills, lozenges, sprays and/or topically through hCG creams.
The HCG Max Diet Plan offered through the Center is a comprehensive 4-Phase HCG Diet protocol inclusive of detoxification, diet, lifestyle changes and an entire line of clinically-formulated HCG Diet support products for before, during and after the HCG Diet. The Center?s short-term and long-term weight loss results through the use of the clinically-developed HCG Max Diet Plan are proving to be a phenomenal success.
?I want to thank you Alisha for convincing me to try the HCG diet. You’ve made my New Year start very different since I am not making the same old resolution of losing weight but rather having the confidence of already being there. I know I am in control and that I won’t ever put the excess weight back on, not to mention that I love getting dressed again and feeling great!? Jonette Flores.
Alisha Smith is Hands On Health Wellness Center?s Certified HCG Weight Loss Coach. She received her certification after undergoing extensive HCG Diet training with the HCG Diet Expert

It was during this time that she discovered her passion for food. She was inspired to build a firm foundation in the culinary arts and enrolled in the Culinary Arts Associate Degree program at the California Culinary Academy.
Sunday, March 4, 2012: Stephanie Davidovich
Although Stephanie has lived abroad and all over California, she considers San Francisco her hometown. Her inspiration for cooking was sparked at a young age and she credits her mother, who did not do much cooking, as well as her grandmothers with inspiring her to get creative in the kitchen. ?I started exploring the kitchen and cooking here and there for my family,? she says. While working simultaneously as a health counselor, 1st grade teacher, and middle school cooking teacher, Davidovich decided to pursue the culinary world in a more formal way. She is currently enrolled in the Culinary Arts Certificate program at the CCA.
Sunday, March 11, 2012: Bruce Pettit
Bruce Pettit was born and raised in Sarasota, Florida and is currently enrolled in the Culinary Arts Certificate program at the CCA. Before beginning to cook on his own, Pettit drew inspiration from Alton Brown?s ?Good Eats? program. ?I watched his show for years before I ever cooked anything, and I still love his way of thinking about cooking and food.? Pettit slowly started to cook for family and friends and enjoyed the experience so much that he decided to attend culinary school.

Washington, DC (PRWEB) February 22, 2012
The Center for Mind-Body Medicine’s (CMBM) Global Trauma Relief Team is now in Jacmel, Haiti, through February 26, 2012, teaching 120 health care providers how to use CMBM?s mind-body techniques to help them reduce symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), a serious condition affecting many of Haiti?s citizens.
CMBM?s five-day training program is an important component of Haiti?s national plan to address population-wide stress and community trauma that has ensued following the powerful earthquake that shattered much of Haiti?s housing and infrastructure in 2010. The trauma of the event is magnified by Haiti?s rampant poverty and persistent political turmoil.
Haitian healthcare providers, education professionals and community leaders are learning CMBM?s small group approach, which integrates aspects of mind-body medicine (meditation, guided imagery, biofeedback, yoga) with self-expression (in words, drawing and movement).
The Center for Mind-Body Medicine?s Global Trauma Relief Team, led by James S. Gordon, M.D., is now in Haiti teaching health care professional how to heal a population traumatized by a devastating earthquake, poverty, and ongoing political turmoil.
The Jacmel program builds on CMBM?s previous success the region. In 2010, CMBM trained 120 clinicians and developed a 15-member local leadership team in Port-au-Prince.
?We all believe that with the problems that we are encountering, each and every one of us should do something that will allow us to be in harmony with ourselves…and with others,? said Bishop Andre Dumas of the success of CMBM?s approach in Haiti. ?This is why this experience is for everyone.?
Since 1996, CMBM?s Global Trauma Relief program, lead by its founder and director James S. Gordon, M.D., has traveled the world to help relieve widespread trauma resulting from wars and disasters.
?Our work in Global Trauma Relief reaches hundreds of thousands who have been traumatized by war and natural disasters,? said Dr. Gordon. ?I am especially proud to work with the people of Haiti in rebuilding their lives and restoring hope for the future.”
Dr. Gordon, a Harvard-educated psychiatrist, is a world-renowned expert in using mind-body medicine to heal depression, anxiety, and psychological trauma. His most recent book is titled Unstuck: Your Guide to the Seven Stage Journey Out of Depression (Penguin Press).
A recent study, published in the International Journal of Stress Management, indicates that a CMBM Mind-Body Skills Group was effective in reducing symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression and feelings of hopelessness in war-traumatized Palestinian children and adolescents by 80%.
In spite of ongoing conflict and severe economic hardship, these healthy gains were largely maintained at a seven-month follow-up.
Following the training in Jacmel, Dr. Gordon?s schedule includes:
Leading a workshop with FOKAL (Foundation for Knowledge & Liberty) in Port-au-Prince on February 28th from 9 am to 12 pm.
Meeting with group participants to hear about how the program has helped improve their lives on February 28th at 2 pm.
Visiting the Downtown Port-au-Prince public school experiencing high levels of trauma and violence among its student population on February 29th at 8 am. (CMBM is currently running groups with these children.)
Making home visits in Delmas to group participants during the afternoon of February 29th.
