Many people suffer from Anxiety. In its severest form “Panic Attacks” can be
triggered by a stressful event or they may come on for no identifiable reason
whatsoever.
Anxiety attacks, and the fear of their occurrence, can prevent sufferers from
leading a normal life. Often these people feel that they have no control over
the feelings and physical effects of anxiety and there is a tendency for Anxiety
sufferers to feel overly responsible for events, peoples reactions or
situations.
While we cannot control the external stressors, we can control our response
through self exploration and understanding the underlying process that manifests
as anxiety.
Regular
Massage & Reflexology can be important for self reflection, breathing, stress
management & self nurturing.
A good diet can make a difference. Focusing on improving diet is also a form of
self nurturing.
Some tips we recommend include:
- Don’t skip meals and eat regularly to avoid low blood sugar levels that
can affect mood.
- Have a wholesome breakfast such as wholegrain toast with avocado or raw
muesli or porridge with fresh fruit.
- Avoid sugary snacks, caffeine & alcohol which amplify the stress
response. A good B vitamin, magnesium and calcium supplements ensures
optimal nutrition for a stressed body, improve mood and relieve nervous
tension.
- Exercising improves self-esteem, and helps with managing stress and
lifts your mood.
- There are many herbs that can help with managing the symptoms of
anxiety, however choosing the right herbs are specific to the individual.
To bring you the latest technology in Natural Health, we have recently
invested in a new tool for measuring body composition called VLA or Vitality,
Longevity & Healthy Aging Analysis.
What is VLA?
VLA uses BioIimpendance technology originally developed to monitor patients
recovering from injury and surgery. BIA is now used by NASA to monitor the
health of astronauts and is popular with athletes and professional sports people
to manage dietary requirements and training plans.
Patients who will benefit from VLA may want to:
- Lose weight
- Increase muscle tone & fitness
- Improve their energy
- Age healthily
- Effectively detoxify their bodies
All of our clients have the opportunity to have a VLA analysis including a
comprehensive report and explanation of the results for $45. For more details

heart conditions. |

The mitochondria of cells is the battery that creates energy. The body
creates CoQ10 to help the mitochondria produce energy. As we get older the
amount of CoQ10 tapers off. Coenzyme Q10 protects the body from free radical
damage and is a powerful antioxidant that aids in metabolic reactions.
Supplementation of CoQ10 prevents certain heart conditions and strengthens
the cardiovascular system. In studies, deficiency of CoQ10 is noted in people
with hypertension and high cholesterol. With supplementation blood pressure is
noticeably reduced.
CoQ10 increases sperm production and motility and therefore enhances
fertility. It also has a modulating effect on the immune system and increases
the body's resistance to Viruses. In studies CoQ10 was found to alleviate
allergies and sufferers exhibit lower-than-normal blood levels of CoQ10. CoQ10
may double the body's level of protective antibodies. Obese people and diabetics
have lower levels of CoQ10.
Athletes & those who exercises frequently benefit from CoQ10 to increase
exercise capacity and oxygen utilization. As well as enhancing the immune system
during intense periods of training. For the rest of us this is a fabulous
supplement for supporting energy production and preventing chronic lifestyle
diseases.
