What is Acupressure?

Acupressure is a traditional Chinese medicine technique that involves placing physical pressure on different acupuncture points on the surface of the body to stimulate the flow of energy. The body's energy meridians act as an energetic blueprint of the physical body. Often with tension, trauma or disease, energy becomes restricted and stimulating the movement of that energy can bring varying levels of and often dramatic relief. Acupressure does not diagnose or cure medical conditions. It works with imbalances in the body's energy field.

What is Acupuncture?

Acupuncture is an effective form of healthcare that evolved into a complete and wholistic medical system. Acupuncture is a form of therapy used for pain that increases blood flow and energy to irritated, painful muscles. It helps to relieve symptoms and signs while its goal is to treat the root cause and at the same time, quell the symptom.

Acupuncture is part of a broad-based approach. Treatments may be effectively combined with other therapies or stand alone. Herbs may be incorporated in the therapy to naturally eliminate pain and reduce inflammation.

Acupuncture is effective in treating:

How Does Acupuncture Work?

Acupuncture uses fine, Tiny “hair-like” sterile needles that are gently inserted into specific points, the muscles and meridians (channels in which nerves flow along the body) to energize and strengthen damaged muscles. The treatment is not painful! Sometimes, an electro-stimulator may be attached to the needles after they are inserted in the body. This helps to speed recovery to the damaged area by simulating the contraction and releasing of the muscle that is similar to the action of exercising. Some patients feel immediate pain relief as a result of acupuncture. In other conditions, it may take at least six visits before desired results are reached. This is a quick recovery period compared to the six to eight weeks that it normally takes an injured muscle to heal using traditional methods of treatment.

If there is an anxiety against using needles, the Acupuncturist my elect to use needleless techniques, such as AcuScen and/or Acupressure uses the same techniques that are used in acupuncture, only there are no needles. Pressure is applied to painful areas along meridians or damaged muscles to create the release of endorphins. This helps to heal the muscle and to rejuvenate irritated areas of pain. This treatment is great for children and elderly patients who can receive the benefits of acupuncture without the needle.

What is Qi?

At the core of this ancient Medicine is the philosophy that Qi, (pronounced “chee”) or Life Energy, flows throughout the body. Qi animates the body and protects it from illness, pain and dis-ease. A person’s health is influenced by the quality, quantity and balance of Qi.

Qi circulates within a series of pathways called Meridians. Meridians are like rivers inside the body. When a river flows, it transports life-giving water that nourishes the land, plants and people. When Qi flows freely throughout the body, one enjoys good physical, mental and emotional wellbeing. A blockage of Qi anywhere in the body is like a dam, backing up in one area, and restricting it in others. When the blockage of Qi is prolonged, excessive, or if the body is in a weakened state, illness, pain or dis-ease can set in.

The AcuScen is a state-of-the-art biofeedback-type technology for pain and stress relief, and for helping the body to recover from a wide array of both acute and chronic conditions.

According to Russian researchers, this biotechnology has been found to be beneficial specifically in the management of:

What conditions can AcuScen help with?

Research shows that the AcuScen may have benefits for injuries and illness involving pain and inflammation. However, the Russian experience is that this type of device has shown efficacy for a broad range of conditions including:

No matter what specific condition is being treated, most people also experience other, whole-body benefits that include increased energy, more refreshing sleep and an improved sense of well-being.

This biotechnology was first developed by the Russians for use as a health device for cosmonauts, who needed to be able to self-treat while in space. The Russians developed a method of treatment known as S.C.E.N.A.R (Self Controlled Energo Neuro Adaptive Regulation), which head scientist Professor Revenko claimed could alleviate the symptoms of almost all types of illnesses, especially chronic ones that are not easily helped by conventional medicine

The device was kept as a highly classified military secret until the late 1980’s. In 1986, the SCENAR was approved by the USSR Medical Council and has been widely used in Russian hospitals and has spread to European hospitals. Many research papers have been published on its effectiveness, and the inventors received the Medal of Lenin (Similar to the Nobel Prize) for its development. With the restructuring of Russia came the opportunity for the SCENAR technology to be made available to other countries. This technology has since spread around the world and into the larger health community. It is being used to great effect by people ranging from the average patient to highly conditioned athletes. AcuScen was developed from the same technology with an emphasis on ease of use and specific treatments.

How does AcuScen work?

AcuScen integrates advanced medical technologies to provide the very latest in “Systemic Interactive Medicine.” The hand-held device sends tiny, therapeutic electrical signals through the skin to the immune system, enhancing its function and stimulating healing responses in the body, such as the reduction of pain and inflammation from injury or chronic conditions. The device stimulates the body’s own healing processes, at the chemical, electrical, energetic and informational levels.

"Scalar Wave Regenerating Life On A Cellular Level"

The Energy Enhancement System™ (EESystem) technology uses custom –installed computers to generate morphogenic energy fields that create multiple bio-active life enhancing energy fields, including “scalar waves” which can allow cell regeneration, improve immune function, provide relief from pain, detoxify the body, elevate moods and assist in balancing right, left hemispheres of the brain to increase energy levels. While promoting healing, wellness, relaxation, purification and rejuvenation.

The Energy Enhancement System™ Technology has been presented at numerous National and International medical, scientific, and many other health conferences including the American Academy for Anti-Aging Medicine and the Radiation Oncology Committee Meeting. Dr. Victor Marcial-Vega, M.D., John Hopkins research physician, Professor of Oncology, has testified before Congress, and spearheaded clinical studies and research into this Energy Enhancement Technology.

Dr. Marcial-Vega and others have documented the following:

• elimination of detrimental fields including 60 cycle fields, radiation, and microwaves
• improvement of blood profiles proven by high resolution blood imaging and other tests
• detoxification, deep relaxation
• extraordinarily rapid post surgical healing
• vision improvement including retinal reattachment and eyesight restored
• relief from severe pain even in cases of metastasized cancers
• significantly increased energy and mental clarity with many other instances of enhanced health and well being
• major benefits to diabetics

The conclusion from Dr. Marcial-Vega's study was:

"It is my opinion that this is a powerful energy enhancer. It promotes very deep states of ultimate relaxation, if we allow it, from which any type of healing can occur."

The Lymphstar Pro

The Lymphstar Pro, is a revolutionary state of the art, safe and effective electronic -lymphatic drainage instrumentation. Each session is equivalent to eight to ten manual lymphatic drainage sessions. The Lymphstar Pro leaves the client with NONE of the soreness that can result with manual lymphatic massage.

The lymphatic system is a central component of the immune system and protects the body by draining and filtering out waste.

What is Electro-Lymphatic drainage? How does it work?

The Lypmhstar Pro is a vibrational energy technology. As such it emits "information" to the energy field of the cells via harmonics of sound and frequencies of light. It produces this information by way of something called "noble gas ionization." There is a long tradition of research into the energetic effects of these noble gases. An optimal mixture of xenon, argon, and krypton is enclosed in Pyrex glass tube. The gases are excited by electrical current. While the client lies comfortably on a massage table, the Lymphstar Pro is applied by placing the transmission head, or heads on the body and gently moving them over the skin. An energy field, or plasma, then radiates from the tube onto the skin and is conducted through the entire bio-energy system. Proteins are re-polarized causing retained fluid and congested areas to FLOW. Stagnation is reversed and the lymph system is now free to perform its cleansing functions! Detoxifying and enhancing immunity leaves the client feeling calm and rejuvenated.

Did you know that…The lymphatic system is the most underrated part of the circulatory system in the human body. Sadly many health-care practitioners rarely consider the critical role lymph plays in preventing sickness and keeping us healthy. This is a problem for all of us.

Your lymphatic system is a vital circulatory system with an extensive network of vessels throughout the body. It contains over 600 “collection sites” called lymph nodes. The body contains three times more lymph than blood. Lymph must be pumped by the movement of our muscles. The less we move, the more stagnant and blocked the system becomes. Many experts believe that a lazy lymphatic system is directly connected to the formation of cellulite because backed up fluids adhere to fat cells. Cellulite is primarily blocked lymphatic fluid.

Other causing factors of lymphatic congestion range from:

An impaired lymphatic system can often result in:

We offer a range of different massage and body-oriented therapies at Integrative Life. Massage therapy is a hands-on manipulation of the soft tissues and musculoskeletal structure of the body. Physicians and healers from all cultures have used massage for over three thousand years. There are over eighty different types of massage/bodywork therapies recognized by national and international healthcare organizations. Some examples that focus on the manipulation of the soft tissue of the body include Swedish, Deep Tissue, Neuromuscular, Lymph Drainage.

The benefits of regular therapeutic massage include:

• Reduction of fatigue
• Nervous system correction, which may help to prevent or alleviate nervous system disorders
• More restful sleep and general stress reduction
• Promotion of joint flexibility and general mobility
• Improved muscle tone
• Decrease in blood pressure
• Relief of constipation
• Improved circulation
• Improved athletic performance
• Increased release of body toxins and reduction of water retention
• Quickening of the healing process in pre- and post-surgical events
• Helping to keep skin tissue more supple and younger looking

More doctors and other healthcare workers are bringing massage back into the general healthcare system for the treatment and prevention of diseases. In many cases massage is covered by insurance.

Licensure is required in North Carolina for anyone practicing massage. Many therapists specialize in several different types of massage and/or bodywork therapies. Proof of licensure, specialty and references are important prerequisites when looking for a qualified therapist.

Bodywork modalities are available at Quantum Energy Medizine.

Swedish Massage: A gentle massage for relaxation, stress relief and body awareness. This manipulation of soft tissue can increase circulation and lymphatic drainage, break up adhesions, lower blood pressure, and reduce tension and anxiety.

Deep Tissue: This massage goes deeper into your muscles and fascial tissue than many other types of massage therapies. It uses specific techniques along with trigger point therapy to relieve aches, pains, tension and spasms in soft tissue. Deep-tissue massage aids in the recovery from an injury and is an integral part of management pain for a wide variety of conditions.

Sports Massage: Sports massage is a vigorous form of massage, geared towards the needs of people who are active and helping them to improve performance. This type of massage focuses on specific muscle groups and tissues to reduce the risk of injury and achieve optimal conditioning. In addition, like most types of massage, it helps flush the body of toxins and wastes, reduces muscle soreness and allows a more productive workout schedule. Other benefits include improved range of motion, circulation, strength and flexibility.

Why is cleansing receiving so much attention?

We live in a toxic world; the soil where our food is grown and the air we breathe are both loaded with chemicals, PCBs, pesticides and petrochemicals. Pharmaceutical drugs and processed foods are commonplace. The facts about our hazardous environment can be overwhelming and scary. There is a choice to be made: we can either be intimidated, continue to suffer from illness and take drugs that add insult to injury, or we can take action to protect ourselves. The human body is designed to have 2-4 bowel movements per day. If your bowels are not moving properly, you may be suffering from self re-toxifiction. No matter how much we may cleanse other areas of the body, if we do not clean out the intestines first, we will continue to introduce the very toxins we are working so hard to get rid of elsewhere.

Internal Cleansing with

Cleansing, also called detoxification, is our body's normal process of elimination, a function that occurs daily through our colon, liver, kidney, lungs, lymph and skin. The most obvious forms of elimination are sweat, urine, and bowel movements. Other organs also eliminate, though you do not actually see this process. Despite the fact that we eliminate continuously, our bodies are having difficulty keeping up with the demand because we are accumulating an unnatural amount of toxins daily. This toxic overload prevents our overworked organs and colon from finishing all their assigned tasks and as a result, the toxins collect within our system. The most common symptoms of toxic buildup include: stress, constipation or failure to have a regular daily bowel movement, feeling sluggish or low energy, lack of motivation, strong food cravings, high sugar consumption, caffeine dependency and unidentifiable illness.

Unfortunately, many of us do not drink enough pure water or eat quality organic foods (foods that are not factory-made or laden with chemicals). We may not exercise, sleep well or wake rested. It is obvious that an individual with these habits would incur a greater toxic load than someone who is practicing a healthier lifestyle. The sad truth is, however, that no one is safe. Even those with good eating and living habits are exposed to an excess of environmental toxins. This excess becomes embedded in our tissues, our organs overload and we may feel sick from the buildup. Our bodies do the best they can with this stressful buildup by storing the extra toxins in our cells, fat and mucus to protect us from further or deeper damage. How each individual's body compensates for this toxic overload is unique and shows up as a wide variety of symptoms that undermine us in every way imaginable. It is clear this compensation affects our overall health, energy and ability to heal. These toxins make us ill, fat, constipated, congested, uncomfortable in our bodies, depressed, drug dependent, diseased and powerless to make important changes that we need to make in order to be well.

Still not sure you need to cleanse your body? Consider the following questions to help you get clear:

Do you sleep peacefully and wake up most mornings feeling rested with clear nasal passages? Are you pain and symptom free? Is your digestion smooth and well functioning, allowing you to have a satisfying bowel movement each morning?

OR

Do you wake up stiff, lethargic, congested, disoriented? Do you need coffee, or worse, medication, to even begin thinking? Do you rush out the door, stressed about the upcoming day, without a proper bowel movement or breakfast?
Do you have plenty of energy throughout the day and evening? Are you drinking at least two quarts of pure water everyday? Do you enjoy a healthy lunch, perhaps a fresh green salad and a small serving of quality protein? Do you have fresh food to snack on like fruit, nuts and veggies?

OR

Do you feel tired, dull, sluggish, just going through the motions, needing coffee or other stimulants to stay energized? Do you eat whatever you can grab, using sugar or processed food as your fuel until you can get something truly nourishing (which often does not happen)? Are you stuck inside all day long and afterwards go home and veg-out for the rest of the evening?
Do you experience vibrant health and well-being? Do you take good care of yourself? Is your body limber, allowing you to enjoy a variety of activities such as walking, yoga or dancing? Do you exercise consistently? Are you happy with your weight? Is your memory clear and your mind sharp? Is your skin blemish free and fresh looking? Are you able to cope with life's many stresses?

OR

Do you have a health problem that you suspect might be related to your diet or lifestyle choices? Do you expect your doctor to make key decisions regarding your health? Are you putting off exercise? Do you have frequent headaches, body pain, sinus or respiratory problems? Is your cholesterol problematic? Do you have indigestion, constipation, gas or bloating? Are you over or underweight? Do you get frequent colds or flu? Is your skin dull, a far cry from the glow of your younger years? Are you irritable and tired for no apparent reason, making daily coping and relationships more difficult?

If you answered negatively to these questions, don't feel bad. Your situation is not hopeless and you are not helpless. You can and will heal. Consider some of the many benefits of cleansing:

• Improved digestion, better elimination, less constipation, gas, bloating and indigestion.
• Freedom to breathe more deeply.
• Less allergic or reactive responses to foods. You will likely experience less mucus and congestion and a clearing of sniffles and coughs.
• More energy, better nutrient absorption, overall improved health.
• Weight loss and the realization that you can enjoy a lighter style of eating.
• Sense of satisfaction, greater vitality and a desire to choose better foods and develop better eating habits, permanently.
• A deeper understanding of how to take care of yourself with these new found skills.

What are unwanted guests?

Unwanted guests are organisms that live on or in another living creature. They can be so small as to not be seen by the naked eye and are called microscopic, or they can be large enough to be seen, sometimes up to two feet long and are called macroscopic. There are over 100 common varieties of unwanted guests that can live in the human being and we can be host to more than one kind at a time.

Where does one find unwanted guests in their body?

One third of the unwanted guests live in the digestive tract and the other two thirds live somewhere else in the body; it might be one's blood, muscles, heart, lungs, liver, or brain. Those that live in the intestines especially enjoy sugar or simple starches. They eat digested food, often robbing important nutrition. Other unwanted guests are able to get their food directly from the body's cells by attaching directly to cells and feeding off of them.

How does one know if they have unwanted guests?

Only about 25% of those with unwanted guests will actually develop observable signs. Most unwanted guests go unnoticed, which is just what an unwanted guest hopes will occur: one will not notice that it is there, so that it can thrive. Unwanted guests are often called the "great masqueraders". If one has a health problem that just won't go away, assume unwanted guests are there and cleanse or take herbs to get rid of them. Even if one were to have medical tests, only about 20% of the average medical laboratories are able to identify them correctly and often miss them.

What are the problems associated with unwanted guests?

Unwanted guests do two things to you. They rob you of nutrition and they excrete their own toxic waste products which are absorbed into the body. The most common problems associated with unwanted guests are diarrhea and/or constipation and pain, but nausea, bloating, excessive gas, bad breath, irritability, or unexplained fatigue might also be present. Some of the classic signs are loss of weight even though you have a great appetite and eat a lot, or grinding your teeth, especially at night.

During your life you will have many experiences and like a computer your body stores and files memory and the effects of every experience weather it’s a good one, a bad one, a peaceful one, a stressful one or traumatic in nature. This stored information governs the way in which we see and experience life at the present. It even affects the way in which we respond to life. More so than not we are unaware of the consequences that this stored information is having on us and what it is creating. Somatic Experiencing©(SE) & Life Regression Therapy allows the body to gently, safely and effectively release the stored stress, anxiety, shock, and trauma that prevents one from living life to the fullest.

Somatic Experiencing (SE) is a naturalistic approach to the resolution and healing of trauma. Trauma is an experience that overwhelms the normal capacity of your nervous system, so you are unable to integrate that experience. Trauma takes many forms. It can be a single event that happens unexpectedly, so quickly that you can hardly process it, or it can be the result of a slow, long-term pattern of events that you have little control over. Either way, trauma can overwhelm your nervous system to the point that it cannot work properly, cannot “rebalance” itself back to efficient and normal functioning. The result is that your nervous system can become “stuck” or “frozen.” Your body then stays in a state of constant threat and attempts to continually manage this high level of activation. The various symptoms of trauma, which wreck havoc on our emotions and body, result from your nervous system’s attempt to manage this continual “turned on” state and to contain this high level of unused energy.

Symptoms of trauma include post-traumatic stress syndrome, unresolved pain, anxiety, anger, depression, fatigue, dizziness, headaches, troubled breathing, insomnia, intrusive thoughts and imagery, and feeling disconnected to life.

Somatic Experiencing (SE) can help resolve the trauma. It is different from other therapeutic modalities that you may have heard about or used:

• SE is not talk therapy. SE engages focused awareness of bodily sensations to engage innate self-regulation and healing.
• SE helps you develop body awareness to “renegotiate” and heal trauma rather than relive or re-enact trauma.
• SE slows the process of release and allows time and space for the highly aroused survival energies to be safely experienced and gradually discharged.
• SE naturally builds greater and greater inner resiliency, self-regulation, and wholeness.
• SE is experienced as your own journey of healing rather than as someone else “healing” you

How does Life Regression work?

Your life is a reflection of your beliefs. But these beliefs are usually subconscious, the cumulative effect of life-long conditioning that may have taught you to think and behave in self-defeating ways. Whereas, your conscious thoughts can be changed fairly easily as you are exposed to new ideas, meet new people, and apply your willpower and insights, changing your unconscious scripts is more difficult. Research has shown that the subconscious “speaks” not in the language of logic and reason but in images and symbols (through dreams) and through the body (i.e., a “gut” feeling, a “heart” ache). The subconscious mind cannot speak directly to the conscious mind. Their communication is indirect, with one of the most common routes of communication being through your body, which is why “body language” is so revealing to those trained to read it.

What can Life Regression help me achieve?

If there are aspects of your life that leave you unsatisfied, if you have “life scripts” that no longer serve you, and if you are wondering why your actions keep overriding your own good intentions, you can look to your subconscious for answers. Life Regression is an effective and fast way to help you to move backwards and forwards in the “life scripts” and “rewrite” the software (script) of your mind and release just about any kind of self-limiting belief. You can:

• Actualize the healing power of your mind
• Release the imprint of past trauma
• Re-perceive fears and phobias to feel at peace
• Develop the relationships you desire and deserve
• Enhance career readiness and opportunities
• Increase well-being by reducing stress and anxiety
• Eliminate destructive habits (smoking, over-eating, etc.)
• Overcome blocks to prosperity and other desires
• Accelerate spiritual development
