ONLY AT OUR GLEN COVE LOCATION
"Shiatsu" SHI (finger)
ATSU (pressure) means a method of treating illness
with digital compression.
The
Japanese Ministry of Health and Welfare states, "Shiatsu
therapy is a form of manipulation administered by the thumbs,
fingers, and palms without the use of any instrument, mechanical
or otherwise, to apply pressure to the human skin, correct internal
malfuntioning, promote and maintain health and treat specific
diseases."
When
a part of a body is sluggish or in pain, the natural reaction
is to press or rub it with the hand. This reaction is probably
the true origin of SHIATSU THERAPY.
"The
heart of shiatsu is like pure maternal affection; the pressure
of the hands caresses the springs of life to flow."
- Reiki ONLY AT OUR GLEN COVE LOCATION
Reiki
(pronounced ray-key) is a Japanese technique for stress reduction
and relaxation that also promotes healing. The practitioner transfers
healing energy by placing her hands on or above the
recipient who
lies fully clothed on a massage table.
Treatments
are usually in a dimly lit room with soothing music playing
to heighten
relaxation. Many describe the experience as a wonderful
glowing
radiance that flows through them with feelings of peace,
warmth
and well-being.
- THERMOGRAPHY Human Dynamics
Thermal
Imaging is an art as much as a science. As we live and breathe, we
are not
aware of the constant, pulsating cellular activity that literally
keeps us
alive and is constantly challenged to keep us healthy. How easy it
is for
us to ignore the invisible physiological signs of cellular and
metabolic stress.
The astounding truth is that this is the level where all
abnormalities begin
and it is also the level where it is easiest to correct.
Early Stage Detection
The most phenomenal truth is that we can detect the changes at this
stage
thru the lens of the Infrared Thermal Imaging camera. This means
that thermography
opens a crucial entryway to preventive medicine as a method of
controlling
the diseases that we currently only recognize at the latest advanced
stages.
As cellular and metabolic stresses cascade into
progressive
degeneration, the end result is that they finally reveal themselves
in the
manifestation of anatomical damage many years later. That is where
patients
and their doctors find themselves today with late stage detection
requiring
aggressive treatment.
New Level of Care
If you agree that early detection and preventiont are preferable
strategies
to later stage detection and treatment, then you must realize that
thermography
is the most qualified technology to meet that end. We invite you to
experience
a new level of care.
- Ionic Footbath Therapy ONLY AT OUR GLEN COVE LOCATION
(B.E.S.T. Energy Spa)
Can you imagine a 35 minute powerhouse of a full body detox - all through the feet? Wow!!
As a powerhouse adjunct to the Colon Hydrotherapy process we now offer the Ionic Footbath (also known as the B.E.S.T. Energy Spa - Bio-Electric Stimulating Technique.)
The B.E.S.T. machine sends an extremely pure current of energy into the water which gets absorbed into the body including the liver, kidneys, lymphatic system, blood, colon, etc. It helps to remove heavy metals, yeast, bile acids, etc.
The detox continues for the next several days through the urinary system, bowels, liver and skin.
- Lymphflo Health & Beauty System
A one hour treatment with the Lymphflo Lymphatic Drainage machine that unclogs, decongests, and frees up the entire Lymphatic System (including the breast region). How vital!! This is one of the most relaxing hours of treatment you will spend. Once you undress, you are lying comfortably on a massage table, covered with a sheet or blanket. The Lymphatic therapist will begin using the Lymphflo Wand (which is attached to the Lymphflo Machine), to gently scan over every part of the body, with a particular emphasis on areas with high Lymphatic concentration...neck, breasts, underarms, abdomen, groin area, legs, etc. You will receive treatment on both the front and back of your body. The Lymphflo Wand puts out a current of light energy that penetrates through the skin to begin to break up congestion and stagnation in the Lymphatic system.
- Far Infra-Red Sauna ONLY AT OUR GLEN COVE LOCATION
A private, 30 minute sitting that stimulates a major release of toxicity for the body. Towel, drink, and shower included. The Far Infra-Red Sauna is now recognized by health practitioners worldwide as perhaps the most effective method of removing both chemical and heavy metal toxins from the body.
- Ear Candling / Coning
A colonic for the ear? Yes indeed! A 50 minute treatment that gently pulls out wax, yeast, mucus, infectious residue, etc., all lodged within the ear canal. Ear candling is an ancient therapy that gently helps to eliminate many challenges that can affect the ear. The ear candle is gently inserted a fraction of an inch into the outer ear canal and then the top of the candle is lit. Ear candling can help with hearing, sinus clearing and drainage, balance, removal of built up wax and old infectious material, itching, etc. It is very relaxing and totally pain free.
- Colonic Reflorastation Take Home Kit
Colonic Reflorastation - Colon Reflorastation is the introduction of a special solution of 50 billion healthy intestinal bacteria (20 strains of colonizing friendly flora) into the rectum, which delivers it into the sigmoid colon. After one hour of retention, it will colonize the bowel, three days later, it will be stabilized. This health procedure is only designed to reinforce the homeodynamic balance of the bowel flora.
According to Thomas Rau, M.D. of the Paraceleus Clinic in Switzerland, your intestinal bacteria are responsible for the stimulation of much of your immune system...and more. They:
- Protect the intestinal mucous membranes essential for absorbing nutrients.
- Offer resistance against growth of bad bacteria and fungi, like systemic yeast.
- Detoxify the body. The bacteria act like blotting paper, soaking up envoirnmental toxins, such as arsenic, before they can enter the body.
- De-acidify the body. Acid-building anaerobic bacteria do this by transporting organically bound acids from the body, depositing them in the stool for removal.
- Produce highly unsaturated fatty acids, essential for maintenance of cell membranes, out of saturated or monounsaturated fatty acids.
Note: Dr.Rau includes Colon Hydrotherapy as one of his treatments at the Paracelsus Clinic..
