Creating A Canoe Rentals Company

By Ericka Marsh

As an aspiring businessman in this field, you would have to make sure that you would have everything that you would be needing for your business. Lucky for you, those things are already listed below. You would just have to acquire them one by one so that you would have a solid foundation for your dream place.

To begin with, you will have to be well funded no matter what happens. Take note that you will not be building a simple canoe rentals Nashville cabin in your side of town. It will be big and it will have everything that a family on vacation will ever need. So, stabilize your credit scores for you to be prepared to borrow from a bank.

The boats that you would be buying would have to be in good shape no matter what happens. Remember that you are responsible for the safety of all your consumers. If you would not be providing them the kind of ride that would bring them back to their starting point, then you would be in trouble.

Have an insurance policy that will be able to cover all of your rights as a customer. Take note that you will never know what will happen to your clients when they are out there. If they went without a guide, then you should have the policy to pay for the boat and the additional hospital bill that will come your way.

The people whom you would be hiring need to be individuals who would not fail you. Remember that you would not be in your rental camp all the time. If you would always fear that these people would stab you in the back, then you can never have the peace of mind that you deserve.

Your rates have to be things that people would be able to afford. Show to your market that they do not have to spend a lot for them to be in the middle of a beautiful river. If they would just take a chance on you, then you can assure them they would have a grand time in one of the canoes that you are proud of.

Be an all in one stop. Never forget that your competitors are just out there in the corner. If you will not be better than them in every way, then they will beat you in the sales and that is not something that you can have right now. You need to prosper so that you will be able to get back the money that you have invested.

Your advertising plan has to be flawless. Call everyone that you know. You would also have to make use of all your social media accounts to make this happen. Do not hesitate to talk about something that you have worked so hard for and that would be it.

Overall, just be sure that you have completed your list in time. If you will perform that, then you are good to go. You can already start with the construction site and wait for things to be done.

Practicing Yoga with a Friend

by Nina

Baxter Bell: One of My Yoga Friends

In Shari’s post for tomorrow about creating a practice for improving balance, she will recommend some partner work. Of course, many of us have done partner work in class, but have you ever practiced yoga at home with a friend?

When I first started practicing yoga at home, I always practiced alone. My very image of “home practice” was so inextricably tied to the idea of being alone that it never occurred to me to practice with someone else. In fact, it wasn’t until I worked on Moving Toward Balance with Rodney Yee that I started practicing once a week with a friend at Rod’s urging. He wanted me to learn first hand about the benefits you can obtain from practicing with someone else. You see, he himself felt that he wouldn't have much of a home practice if it were not for the friends he practiced with.

So what did I learn from my experiments? It became pretty clear almost immediately that benefits of practicing with a friend included much more than simply being able to do partner yoga. Briefly, I  learned through experience that practicing with a friend allows you to:

• inspire and support each other to practice regularly
• teach each other and learn from each other by taking turns leading the practice
• challenge each other (get each other out of ruts and/or encourage each other to practice poses you tend to avoid)
• observe and adjust each other
• talk to each other about yoga

Your practice partner can be anyone you know. He or she could be someone you know from the yoga world, who takes from the same teacher you do or who you met at a workshop or retreat. Or he or she could be someone in your outside life, whether family member, neighbor or friend. Just try asking!

I realized while reading through Shari’s upcoming post that she assumed you would know that you wouldn’t be breaking any rules if you decided to have someone help you with your balance practice. So it seemed like the perfect time to tell you that, no, practicing with a friend is not against the rules. In fact, you’re having trouble beginning a home practice, practicing with a friend is sometimes the very thing that will get you started down the path.

Friday Q A Vaginal Prolapse

Q: I have a vaginal prolapse and my surgery in 3 months time will possibly include a vaginal hysterectomy. I am 75 and an Iyengar teacher. Please could the team cover this procedure some time? I would welcome your comments on how to prepare for surgery and how to modify my practice post operatively for a better recovery.  

A: A few weeks back, I addressed a question about pain following a partial hysterectomy (see Friday Q&A: After a Partial Hysterectomy), and briefly described what a partial hysterectomy is:

 “A partial hysterectomy refers to a procedure where only the uterus is removed, not the cervix or the ovaries. This type of operation involves a shorter recovery time, and is commonly used in the treatment of fibroids and severe and uncontrollable vaginal bleeding.”  

I also mentioned that mesh is used to hold the cervix and vagina in place to prevent them from prolapsing or bulging outside the vaginal opening. With our question today, a vaginal hysterectomy is being recommended because there is already a prolapse of the vaginal structures out of the body.

Before we discuss the procedure to fix this, it is worth understanding what “vaginal prolapse” means in greater detail, what causes it, and why it is important to fix. According to the Cleveland Clinic:

In vaginal prolapse the vagina stretches or expands to protrude on other organs and structures. The situation seldom involves the vagina alone. Supports for the uterus often stretch allowing it to also fall (prolapse) when a woman strains during a bowel movement.

• When the protrusion involves the front (anterior) of the vagina and bladder, the presentation is called a “cystocele” or dropped bladder
• When the back (posterior) of the vagina and rectum are involved, the presentation is called are “rectocele”
• When the anterior vaginal wall and small bowel are involved the situation is called an “enterocele”

And these combinations of structures bulge down and out of the pelvic floor and vaginal opening. Although many women don’t have any symptoms, some will notice a fullness or discomfort in the vagina, a heaviness or pulling in the pelvis, or low back pain that gets better when lying down. Sometimes the prolapse affects normal bladder function, resulting in frequent urination or stress incontinence (loss of control of bladder with coughing, sneezing, laughing, or strongly engaging the belly muscles). When the rectal area is involved bowel movements can be difficult. And the prolapse can interfere with intercourse, which can also become painful. 

As for causes and risk factors, the number one risk factor for developing prolapse of the vagina is having a history of vaginal childbirth, especially more than one time, and aging. Menopause can also negatively affect the tone of the muscles of the pelvis floor. Aging can lead to a weakening of the muscles in general, so the pelvic floor can be affected, too. Chronic cough and chronic constipation can also be risk factors.

If symptoms from the prolapse are significant for a woman, non-surgical treatments are usually tried first, such as teaching the patient pelvic floor muscle strengthening exercises, and possibly the use of a small device placed in the vagina called a pessary, which helps keep everything up and out of the vaginal opening. But for whatever combinations of circumstances, our reader is scheduled for a vaginal hysterectomy. This is a surgical procedure that removes the uterus, possibly the cervix, and, also in post-menopausal women, the ovaries (all are usually removed due to the risk of cancers developing in them over time if left in place). For the procedure, the surgeon enters from the vagina, so there is no cutting through the lower abdominal wall to get the structures and no scarring. The top of the vaginal cavity will likely still be tacked up to other parts of the inner walls of the abdomen to keep the vagina from prolapsing out after surgery.

In preparation for surgery it would be helpful to discuss with your doctor and physical therapist the pelvic floor exercises they recommend for those not undergoing surgery. There could be some nice overlap with some of the yoga poses and techniques that can strengthen the pelvic floor, such as Mula Bandha, and you could integrate your physical therapy techniques with your yoga poses to have your body in the best shape possible prior to surgery. Sometimes reclining can relieve back pain associated with vaginal prolapse, so Relaxation pose (Savasana) could be an excellent pose to do regularly if back pain is one of your symptoms. In addition, supported inverted poses where the pelvis is inverted, such as Chair Shoulderstand or Legs Up the Wall pose done with a prop under the pelvis, could be employed to use gravity to pull the vagina and uterus away from the pelvic floor, especially if they relieve symptoms, even if only temporarily. For more on pre-surgery recommendations from a trained physiotherapist specializing in pelvic floor, see Yoga Prolapse Poses to Choose and What to Avoid.

After surgery, you’ll want to follow the return-to-activity recommendations of your health care team, but restorative poses, pranayama practices that quiet the nervous system, and guided meditation with a focus on lowering stress could assist in faster recovery times. The good news is that compared to an abdominal approach hysterectomy that has a six-week recovery time on average, the vaginal hysterectomy recovery times are on average only two to four weeks. So it should not be too long before our reader is up and easing back into her normal activities, including practicing and teaching yoga again!

Natural Eczema Treatments Could Be A Healthier Alternative

By Julia Cooper Davidson

There are various natural eczema treatments available. If you are suffering from this condition, or have a friend or relative who is, you may want to consider different options. There is no need to keep on suffering.

Eczema is a general term which covers various different conditions. But there is a common link to these in that it affects the skin. The main symptom is irritation, itching and dryness.

Scratching the itchy skin can lead to infection, and permanent scarring. The area where the rash occurs can also appear to be red. Certain irritants can make the condition worse.

Certain plants, such as poison ivy or nettles can cause contact dermatitis. There may be other factors that trigger this off, for example some strong detergents. The allergic reaction can sometimes happen when sunlight covers the affected area.

Cold winter weather can cause dry skin, and this in turn can lead to rashes appearing. Asthma sufferers are mainly prone to this. The head and neck, as wells as elbows and knees are particularly affected, but it can also appear on other areas such as the hands.

Cradle cap can sometimes happen in babies, with the scalp being affected. But adults can also suffer from this, around the head and trunk. It causes yellow scabs and crusts, and is closely related to dandruff.

Less common types of eczema are for example, dishydrosis. This was once thought to affect women, especially after doing their chores around the house. Thus it became known as housewife's eczema. This condition gets worse in summer and the rashes usually appear around the feet and hands.

Neurodermatitis, as its name suggests, is caused by nervous scratching on a certain part of the body. This area becomes discolored and dry. Part of the treatment for this involves attempting to change the behaviour through counselling or relaxation techniques.

The medical profession has traditionally treated all these conditions with steroid medications. But these can have undesired side effects. Steroid cream can affect the skin in the long term, making it thin and fragile. If you touch your eyes without washing your hands after applying this, you can also develop serious illnesses, such as cataracts.

Natural eczema treatments can be readily found online. They are a much safer option, with no undesired side effects. Getting rid of stress and a few dietary changes, in addition to these natural remedies, can also be very helpful..

Please go and get a TOTAL physical exam JILL BRZEZINZKI CONLEYS MESSAGE TO ALL WOMEN

First, cancer took her breasts. Then, her breath. And now, the disease has spread to her liver, threatening to take her life.

Jill Brzezinski-Conley has an amazing story, she has lost both breasts to breast cancer at barely 32-years-old. Now, three years later, she found out that she has incurable stage 4 bone cancer. The cancer had already spread to her sternum and bones and the lining of a lung.

Jill Brzezinski-Conley was diagnosed with Stage IIIC invasive breast cancer one day before her 32nd birthday on July 15th 2009 – just 6 months after she married the man of her dreams. Her journey began with the most progressive form of treatment available. Contrary to what most people think, the younger you are, the more aggressive breast cancer can be.

Jill’s treatment included 16 rounds of grueling chemotherapy, 31 rounds of radiation and 4 surgeries including a double mastectomy with additional surgery ahead. During her treatment she suffered a broken rib and endured serious complications after her reconstructive surgery. However her strength and determination proved pivotal, and after 2 years Jill was in remission and now considers herself a survivor.

Unfortunately 12 months later Jill found out she had developed bone cancer and at 35 years old, the prognosis is terminal. Through all of this, Jill has kept her wit, determination, and never ending smile, with no room for self pity, while frequently making jokes about her baldness, lack of eyebrows and eyelashes. Her sense of humor, courage, positive attitude and inner beauty is truly remarkable.

Jill decided to channel her passion to helping other women feel better about themselves and their bodies via this amazing photo shoot. With the help of the talented photographer, Sue Bryce, Jill traveled to Paris for a photo shoot to inspire women around the world over!

JILL'S MESSAGE TO ALL WOMEN.

"I truly hope that after reading this and looking at these amazing pictures, you will please go and get a total physical exam. I kick myself often for ignoring the signs. I only ignored them because I was not educated about Breast Cancer. If I knew then what I know now, I always wonder where I would be today.

I think the hardest time for me is the summer time. I feel my self esteem kind of gets tested. I sit in the pool and I stare at these women who are so lucky to have these beautiful breasts that I once had and maybe I took them for granted.

Then I find myself snapping back to reality and I look down at my breasts and think, why am I even complaining.

I AM ALIVE!"

According to doctors' reports, Jill has only some months left by her to sniff in the fresh air our atmosphere offers.

Breast cancer affects, it destroys, and it kills. It claims the lives of millions every year. Do yourself great good by going for regular TOTAL medical check-up.

Please share this post, you don't know how many lives you'll be snatching from death as you do. Thank you. Remember, "WE'RE BUILDING A CANCER-FREE GENERATION", and together, we'll win.

Why A Glenview Personal Trainer Is The Best Option For Unfit People

By Amanda Baird

Experts have warned that obesity is fast becoming the biggest health problem faced by citizens of developed countries. More people are unfit and it is a known fact that overweight people that fail to exercise are at risk to contract a host of health problems. Regular exercise holds many benefits but some people simply do not know where to start. One of the best solutions is to hire the services of a Glenview personal trainer.

It is ironic to learn that surveys have shown that most overweight and unfit people are aware of the fact that they need exercise and that they are endangering their health. Many struggle to get going and many others say that they do not have the time to follow a proper exercise program. Experts agree that those trying to become fit on their own are most likely to fail. It is better to get professional help and to follow a scientific program.

The services of a private instructor offer many distinct benefits. Clients are more likely to exercise when they have somebody that motivates them and that keep record of the progress made. Professional fitness instructors are also able to devise exercise programs that will suit the needs and schedule of their clients. Many professionals are also able to provide expert advice on diets.

Success breeds success. That is why it is important to have objectives and to record the progress made. Many people give up because they fail to understand that it takes time to get into shape and that it is unrealistic to expect spectacular results immediately. By keeping record it is possible to enjoy a host of small achievements and those achievements will motivate further efforts.

It is true that the services of private instructors can be high. It is important, however, to also consider the cost of failing health. Many people form groups and hire a single instructor for the entire group. Others make use of professional services only to get started. It may also be worth it to find out whether the medical aid scheme offers fitness incentives.

Choosing a private instructor should be done with patience. It is vital to check that he is properly qualified and that he is accredited with an authoritative industry body. Most gyms are able to provide advice and to make recommendations. References should be checked. The fees should be discussed up front and the schedule should be decided before signing a contract.

Getting fit is most certainly an important priority but in most cases it is also necessary to make other lifestyle changes. It is often necessary to embark upon a diet, to stop smoking and to work on dropping other unhealthy habits. However, it is always a good idea to undergo a thorough physical examination at a general practitioner before making major lifestyle changes.

Fit people have more energy and they generally enjoy life more than unfit, overweight people. Hiring a Glenview personal trainer can be the first step towards a more fulfilling, healthier life. Many families embark upon lifestyle changes together and they quickly find that they enjoy more fulfilling personal relationships by simply exercising together.

Important Tips On How To Train For And Run A Marathon

By Ida Dorsey

For marathon beginners, the most setbacks may be accessing the right information for your training. Getting the right information for your training is a big step towards the right progress. This article appreciates the need for such information and provides you with tips on how to train for and run a marathon.

The long run is about running at a predictable and agreeable exertion to construct fat-blazing chemicals, cardiovascular perseverance, and time on your feet. One of my honing techniques is to manufacture the long run from where you are, progressively, and once you hit 14 miles, substitute a more drawn out run with a shorter run that advances to marathon race exertion and past. The mystery sauce is in running your long runs by exertion and your body to maintain a strategic distance from over- (excessively rapidly) and under- (excessively gradually) preparing.

Determine your exact race. After training for the at least 6 months and have successfully completed a few shorter races, start thinking about the race you want to train for. There exist a lot of them to choose from. Therefore, you will have to make a decision, whether to run a big or small race. This also entails ascertaining whether you want travel to another city or stay close to home. You can browse through the internet for various listings and reviews.

HIIT (High Intensity Interval Workouts): These workouts may be the hardest exertion insightful, yet they additionally roll out the most sensational improvements in oxygen consuming wellness, velocity, digestion system and caloric blaze, and general wellness. An alternate alternative for your third workout is to substitute HIIT speed interims one week with slope rehashes the following. In both cases, you are working at a high intensity, in one, concentrating on velocity; in the other, building quality.

Workouts 4-5: Training for a marathon on three running days is a successful system; however it additionally functions admirably when you fill in the holes with quality preparing and a low-affect cardio movement like cycling. Since your three running days all lie on the harder end of the exertion scale, keep the cycling and quality workouts to a simple to direct exertion. That way, you won't miss recuperation along the way and get into a chronically exhausted state via preparing excessively hard.

Ensure to warm up and cool down regularly. Warming up and cooling down are vital parts of every run and which should not be skipped. This is the most effective way of preventing injuries and achieving the most out of your workout. Warming up gradually prepares your heart, muscles, lungs and tendons for the exertion of each training race or run. Cool down should come immediately after finishing a workout and helps the body to recover and prepares it for the next session.

Remember to remain hydrated and fueled up throughout the session. Nutrition and hydration are very essential to the success of your training runs. During the exercise, you should drink lots of fluids all day long to remain well hydrated. Drink water or sports drink while running, particularly when going over 90 minutes. Avoid waiting until you feel thirsty in order to drink something since at that point, you are already dehydrated.

Finally, wear proper shoes and running gear and remember to taper before the race. Be sure to wear quality running shoes while undertaking the preparation. Purchasing suitable running gears, particular your sneakers, goes a long way in reducing injuries and the occurrence of painful blisters. During your tapering period- the last 21 days before the marathon- ensure to run less and rest a lot more by cutting down on your weekly and long-run mileage.

Discover Wellness With A Peabody MA Chiropractic Office

By Mark Marabut

Though there once was a time when people took little interest in health matters, that time has long since passed. Today's patients now know more than they ever did about just how important it is to live a healthy life. Thankfully, many of them can now benefit from the wellness tips and therapies offered by a Peabody chiropractor.

If you've thought chiropractors did little other than crack backs and necks into place, you've been mistaken. Today, these professionals take an active role in patient wellness, providing a wide range of therapeutic services and educational offerings that help their patients achieve maximum health and well-being.

Chiropractors use a whole-body approach in their care. Though doctors are limited to dealing primarily with symptoms, these practitioners employ methodologies that rely on a search for the real source of any discomfort. As a result, their efforts directly target the issues that most affect overall wellness.

Naturally, these chiropractors do focus on pain and the adjustments and other techniques necessary for relieving that discomfort. That is not all they do, however. Much of their attention is focused on advising clients about various lifestyle issues that can impact overall health. The central premise is simple: getting rid of pain is a good thing, but improving overall health is even better.

Chiropractic care thus employs strategies designed to assist patients with things like posture, nutrition, and exercise. Better posture can alleviate many spinal irregularities, while sound nutrition improves patient health. Exercise, of course, help the body to remain in peak form to ensure that its own ability to self-heal remains intact.

The reality is that chiropractors could just perform manual adjustments, collect their pay for that service, and wait for the next visit. Instead, their commitment to patient health causes them to spend their time working toward eliminating as many future visits as possible by enhancing each patient's personal wellness.

A Brief Guide To The Benefits Colon Cleanse

By Della Monroe

The digestive system is the system through which the food we eat is digested into something that the body can absorb and utilize for energy production, growth, healing of wounds and to support all other life processes. The colon is an important part of the digestive system. However, it gets clogged easily and needs to be regularly cleaned. Here are the benefits colon cleanse.

First and foremost, cleansing promotes the efficiency of this digestive system. Food that is not digested may build up in the system causing clogging, malabsorption of nutrients as well as breeding grounds for harmful bacteria that may cause disease. After a clean-up job, the body is able to absorb nutrients in the right way leading to better health outcomes.

Another merit of carrying out detoxification is the maintenance of regularity that helps one avoid being constipated. It is a phenomenon that affects many individuals. Chronic constipation is primarily common and is caused by slow movement of food through the gut. Eventually, the slow pace may cause formation and release of toxins and may also is responsible for the formation of haemorrhoids.

When the digestive system is clogged, absorption and reabsorption of some minerals and nutrients is impaired. The absorption process takes place in various parts of this system. The colon is involved in absorption of some essential nutrients. As a result, cleansing the system promotes absorption rates of vital nutrients that lead to reduced risks of acquiring certain diseases, better concentration and performance as well as better health.

Cleaning of large intestines also helps individuals lose weight. By eating foods rich in water and fiber, one improves the flow of material through the digestive system. The process jumpstarts and improves metabolic rates that may eventually lead to weight loss. Certainly, weight loss does not have to be another headache affair.

Every day we are exposed to a variety of foods that we consume. Some of the foods, drinks or the air we breathe in may be carrying toxins that end up in your gastrointestinal system as well as the liver. Accumulation of such toxins in the colon or the liver may spell doom to the body. Consequently, cleaning the large intestines reduces ones risks of cancer, cysts and polyps in the gut.

Infertility is an issue common among people in the world. However, most people do not know that one of the traditional causes of infertility is unhealthy diets and a body full of toxins. Cleansing the gut system helps get rid of these toxins. In addition, the process introduces one to healthier food options with plenty of fat and low fibre which are good for the body because too much fat may not rate positively with the fat based estrogen or eggs and sperms.

Cleansing is a journey that every single person should regularly take . It is a journey of self-discovery, good health promotion as well as a means to maintain a healthy weight and lose excess weight. After the journey, one is assured of reduced toxins, better absorption of nutrients and better health outcomes.

Friday Q A Strengthening Your Quads

Extended Side Angle Pose

Q: My parents have started to suffer from osteoarthritis and have a transfer problem due to knee pain. I have started including some asanas to strengthen my quads. Do you think it is a good idea to use ankle weights to strengthen the quads?

A: As long as you have a relatively healthy body and joints, I think using something like ankle weights to strengthen the quads could be quite reasonable. Now, if you have significant knee or hip arthritis, you would obviously want to be guided by the amount of pain in the joints that the extra weight might cause. And if you were not particularly keen on using yet another extra item in your practice, rest assured that using your own body weight for resistance and strengthening can help to strengthen you quads, as well as longer hold with some of your standing poses. See Ram’s excellent post on Endurance Training for more information.

The ankle weights would be most likely to help build more quad strength when you take your leg into flexion a the hip joint, especially in poses like the standing pose Hasta Padangusthasana. In this pose, you start in Mountain pose and balance on one leg as you lift the other one up parallel with the floor or higher and use your same-side hand to hold that lifted foot (or use a strap if you are limited by tightness or leg/arm length challenges).

Another pose in which you could use the ankle weights is Reclining Leg Lifts, which in the yoga practice is called Urdhva Prasarita Padasana. I do these starting in Savasana, inhaling the arms overhead, then while exhaling the arms back to my sides simultaneously swinging one or both legs up to vertical. On my next inhale, I simultaneously lower the leg/legs back to the floor and take the arms back overhead, and finish by exhaling the arms to my sides. This can be repeated for a set of six or more. The ankle weights will make it a bit more challenging, and could potentially result in more muscle building in the quads.

Other postures that you could do that would not necessarily require or benefit from the ankle weights but would work to strengthen the quadraceps muscles in whole or part (since one of the four muscles that make up the quads flexes the hip joint, but all four extend the knee to straight), would include all of the straight leg standing poses done with attention to creating an isometric contraction of the muscles while in the held pose for a while. I usually shoot for about 90 seconds when working on muscle building and strengthening. You can actually check to see if you are engaging the muscles group by touching the front mid quad with your fingers to verify the muscle is firm and working. The straight leg poses poses I am referring to include Mountain, Triangle, Pyramid (Parsvottanasana), Half Moon pose (Arda Chandrasana), and Warrior 3 to name the most common.

You can get a slightly different effect of strengthening the quads by doing the standing poses where one or both knees are bent and once again working towards longer holds (gradually, of course, if you are starting out from a weaker places) of 90 seconds or so. My favorites are Powerful pose (Utkatasana), Warrior 1 and 2 and Extended Side Angle pose. 

I also like to do a wall version of Powerful pose, with my back to the wall, feet about two feet from wall and a block in between the legs near the knee joint so the part of the quads towards the inside of the leg, the vastus medialis, will get stimulated to contract due to the block squeeze. (This part of the quads is notoriously weak in many people, even regular yoga practitioners and can cause kneecap-tracking problems that can lead to arthritis in some.) You then slide your torso and hips down the wall until your thighs are no lower than parallel with the floor, and your knees are positioned over your ankle joints, and you hold the pose for a bit. This pose is often more challenging to weaker quads, so start off holding for a few breaths and very gradually over the course of weeks or months, extend the time in the pose.

So, with and/or without ankle weights, you can definitely improve quad strength with your yoga practice!

Friday Practice Pointers Get a Diagnosis!

by Baxter

Self Portrait with the Portrait of Doctor Farill by Frida Kahlo*

As I was reviewing all the information that we have shared with you over the years on our blog regarding yoga for medical conditions, I was struck by the fact that I had not clearly and unequivocally stated the most obvious caution of all. It was easy to forget this most important caution when there is so much positive information coming out each week on studies showing yoga’s benefit for a wide range of medical conditions, from osteoporosis to Parkinson’s Disease and post-cancer treatment. I’ve even shared with you fairly clear ways to think about the use of yoga tools for medical conditions- as preventative, curative, maintenance, supportive or palliative, and rehabilitative (see 5 Ways Yoga Can Affect Your Health). And we have written about applying yoga tools for conditions here ranging from bunions to low back pain and diabetes. 

But there is one caution that is crucial for all of this: 

If you feel that you are developing some medical condition or illness, you should be evaluated by the appropriate health care provider—be it an orthopedic surgeon for your shoulder pain or a psychologist for your feelings of depression—and get an accurate diagnosis! 

This might seem like common sense. And yet, over and over again, I meet people who are using yoga to address a health issue who have never even been to their family doctor, let alone a specialist, to find out if their suspicions about what is going on are correct. There is an old saying “The doctor who treats himself has a fool for a patient.” You are doubly or triply foolish if you are not a doctor and doing the same thing! Also, despite their best intentions and offers of help, your yoga teacher is not trained nor licensed to diagnose what ails you, even common things like low back pain that might seem their bread and butter. Even those who are certified in the new field of yoga therapy are not permitted to diagnosis your injury, illness or disorder (see Drawing a Line in the Sand: Where Yoga Teachers Should Not Go).

I certainly understand the reluctance of many to go see a doctor when you may not have health insurance, or have a plan that covers very little of the cost that might be involved in finding out what is going on. But a delay in finding out what is going on or making an incorrect self-diagnosis could leave you worse off in the long run and cost you even more. So, here is what I recommend:

1. If you think you are becoming ill (obvious exceptions are common colds and such), see a board-certified medical doctor doctor as soon as you can and get an accurate diagnosis. 
2. If you are injured and are not improving in 4-6 weeks, do the same.
3. Once you have a diagnosis, ask your doctor or health care expert if yoga is safe to add to any treatment they recommend (see Talking to Your Doctor).
4. Once you have a diagnosis, discuss what you know about your condition with your yoga teacher or yoga therapist, and ask them to help you craft a plan using yoga to assist in supporting better health and healing. 
5. If you don’t already have a teacher or yoga therapist, look for one in your community with experience, preferably working your specific diagnosis. 
6. Once you have a diagnosis and clearance from your health team, consider using the recommendations we make here on this blog for your specific issues. But even if you choose to try out some of our suggestions, I still strongly recommend you work with a teacher or yoga therapist when you first start our applying yoga tools, especially if you are newer to yoga.
7. If you are in the midst of a diagnostic work-up and your doctor is okay with you trying or continuing restorative or gentle yoga, then certainly, with appropriate common sense caution, do that. The stress reducing benefits of such practices are typically supportive for just about any condition you might be diagnosed with.

What You Can Find At A Medical Supply Store Oxford MS

By Bonnie Contreras

Home use clinical supplies and equipment help people who have physical limitations and certain health conditions live more comfortably. They are readily available at stores that sell medical supplies in Oxford MS. By visiting a medical supply store Oxford MS residents can find self care devices, diagnostic, acute care and long term care equipment.

Self care supplies are devices that people can use daily without seeking the assistance of clinicians in order to be able to utilize them. These devices include mobility aids, hearing aids and diabetes management tools. At medical supplies stores, you can also find diagnostic tools like ophthalmoscopes and sphygmomanometers. They are used to test or screen patients for various health conditions.

Surgical supplies are also available at hospital supplies stores. This includes stainless steel tools such as those used by surgical teams during surgeries, diagnostic scopes and disposable items like gowns, caps, glasses and gloves. Other supplies found at these stores are durable medical equipment which includes various kinds of transfer equipment, walking aids, wheelchairs and bath safety equipment. They are tested for load or weight bearing strength and non slip features because patients rely on them to stay comfortable and safe.

Clinical supply stores also sell the equipment and supplies that hospitals purchase and store. They are also known as acute care supplies and consumers cannot use them without the guidance of a patient care service provider. Examples of these supplies are health monitoring equipment, nursing care kits and non surgical equipment. Hospital supplies stores also sell supplies that are used in emergency rooms such as respiratory therapy equipment, minor procedure kits and examination tools as well as wound care supplies.

Facilities that offer long term care like nursing homes can also source their supplies from clinical supply stores. These facilities commonly utilize products like mobility assistance products, mattresses, beds, incontinence management products, therapeutic chairs, exercise equipment and dressing and grooming aids among many other products. There are a number of things that inhabitants of Oxford Mississippi should do when shopping at these stores.

One important thing is to determine the duration that you need to use the supplies. It is not wise to buy equipment such as walkers and wheelchairs if you only need to use them for a short period of time. The better option is renting them. If you need to use them for many years, you should buy them. It is also essential to consider the height and weight capacities of supplies such as scooters, ramps, wheelchairs and bed lifts.

When purchasing home use supplies, it is wise to consult with an in home care specialist to help you find the right equipment for your needs. You should also inquire about coverage options for this equipment before you buy it. Your insurance policy may provide coverage for all or some of the costs based on your needs but it may require you to buy a specific brand or buy from a specific vendor in order for the costs of equipment to be covered.

As they purchase equipment from a medical supply store Oxford MS residents should also consider comfort. They should look for supplies that are comfortable and easy to use on a daily basis. It is also important residents of this city to ensure that the equipment or supplies they purchase such as bed lifts and wheelchair ramps are professionally installed.

The Key Advantages Of Choosing A Weight Loss Clinic San Diego Program

At the very least, weight loss is about burning more calories than you consume. This often seems simple enough, but if it were as simple as it sounds, no one would be grappling with weight issues and there would be no need to take on weight loss clinic San Diego programs. Too often people take drastic measures just to see their desired results; pills, diets, or those outrageous fitness programs on infomercials that always promise instant results.

Probably you will shed the much needed pounds but what will happen should you go off the diet, stop the pills or discontinue an outrageous workout program? All the lost pounds will come back. The real secret to losing weight as emphasized in the best programs is to make small, but lasting changes. The secret is to forget about instant results and choose a program that will be sustainable in the long run.

First and foremost, by following such a program, you can rest assured that it is clinically tried and tested. Compared to a self-designed program which is not backed up by any medical research, following a clinically tested program from a San Diego Clinic will mean you are following a customized plan. This is because your current weight, body mass index, medical history and current health status are often taken into consideration.

Generally, before you are put into any program, a thorough medical assessment and counseling will be carried out. You will have a qualified and experienced team of medical professionals and physicians carry out a case study so as to customize a plan for you.

These are the individuals who will be by your side from the beginning to the end, and will ensure you are committed to your program until you achieve your goals in the healthiest way they know how.

Another reason why most people opt for clinical programs is because of the lifestyle education and counseling services they receive. Doctors, nurses, nutritionists and other professionals will often advice and counsel on the lifestyle and nutritional changes that need to be made in order to lead healthy lifestyles that will not only shed the pounds but keep them off completely. People often receive both group therapy and one-on-one guidance sessions to help them make wise decisions.

Thirdly, you will always be guaranteed of lifelong support when you work with professionals from a reputable clinic in your region. Most of the self-designed plans and the fad programs you see on advertisements are just that: programs for weight loss. There is always no one to offer you the much needed support should the going gets tough as it sometimes will. However, just the thought that there is a team of professionals to guide you when the going gets tough could be all that you need to stay committed to your goals till the end.

A lot can be said about weight loss clinic San Diego programs and their self-designed counterparts. Those in search of the best plans are advised to check online for reliable and reputable clinics in and around San Diego. While at it, it is recommended that they conduct the search, with their current size and amount of weight they wish to lose, in mind, so as to find the perfect clinic for their needs. This is because some services will often be more targeted and customized than others.
