Painless Cavity Filling

For those of you who dread having a cavity filled, there is good news. A new procedure, using a laser, makes getting a filling a quick and painless procedure.The Waterlase cavity-filling system chips away decay and plaque in the tooth with shots of water and a laser, then the cavity is filled with a liquid composite and sealed with a curing light, resulting in a painless, five-minute procedure that allows the patient to work, eat and drink immediately after. How cool is that ? No numb lip, with the sensation that you're drooling all over the place or have a droopy smile on your face. No shots to dread or the pain of drilling to get the cavity. It's a new day for our kids....no childhood trauma of going to the dentist to get a filling !

Reflexology

Reflexology is a form of massage usually applied on the hands, feet, or ears. It’s a form of treatment rooted in ancient techniques used by various cultures that found correlations between these body parts and the rest of the body. Certain “reflex zones” on the hands, feet, and ears, have been found to have an influence on other portions of the body when stimulated with physical pressure. Though often prescribed as a complement to standard medical care, reflexology massage can be very beneficial to those suffering from migraine, stress, back pain, arthritis, digestive disorders, and sleep disorders.

Reiki

Reiki is a form of treatment technique used as a complementary therapy for the treatment of physical, emotional, and mental illnesses. This practice is based around the understanding that life is supported by an unseen, life-force energy (Ki). When this energy is low, one is likely to become ill. Practitioners use this life force energy channeled through their hands to bring about relaxation and healing to the patient. Reiki healing has been widely known to have positive (sometimes miraculous) effects in treating virtually every known illness and is always beneficial to the patient being treated.

Alternative Healing Therapies

Chiropractic

Chiropractic is a form of treatment that improves overall health by manipulating the muscular-skeletal system and promoting proper nervous system function. It is thought that spinal dysfunction interferes with the nervous system leading to an array of potential health problems. Chiropractors find that a healthy spine is critical to overall well being and maintaining proper alignment is crucial. This is done with a process known as spinal adjustment, and practitioners may also adjust other aspects of the body back into balance.

Acupuncture

Acupuncture is a practice based on the theories of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Under this medical framework, illness is thought to stem from an imbalance or blockage of Qi within the body. With a deep understanding of these energetic systems, acupuncturists stimulate acupoints with thin sterile needles, physical pressure, and/or various other devices involving heat, light electricity, and lasers to promote healing. Acupuncture is often accompanied by Chinese herbal medicine and Tui Na massage techniques depending on the patients needs. Practitioners are trained and licensed by local and national regulatory organizations to ensure proper training and safety guidelines.
