Spring Cleaning your Body & Mind
Spring is here with a sense of renewal and rejuvenation. While winter was a season of eating heavy foods and conserving energy, spring is a time of action, movement and a lighter diet. In just a few weeks we will be cleaning our yards, houses and cottages. During this busy time let’s not forget our bodies and mind as according to Chinese physiology, seasonal changes can affect your well being and health.
Based on Eastern philosophy, spring corresponds to the “Wood” element which in turn is related to the liver and the gallbladder. According to Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), the liver is responsible for the smooth flow of energy (Qi) throughout the body and therefore it is the prime target for spring cleansing. Green is the colour of the liver and of spring. Thus, eating greens like lettuce, green beans, sprouts, spinach, and arugula, can improve liver functions. The liver can also be stimulated with sour drinks and foods such as putting a slice of lemon in your water or a touch of vinegar in salad dressing. The liver has an effect on tendons, muscles and nerves. Therefore, adding morning stretches to your daily routine will benefit them and will make you feel better. The liver also opens to the eyes and is connected to proper eye function.
About 70% of our body is made-up of water. Drinking about 8 glasses of clean water a day will not only hydrate your body but it will also help with cleansing. And to strengthen the cleansing effect, add liquid chlorophyll to your drinking water. This liquid supplement is available for sale at the retail section of our clinic.
If you want to improve your cleansing program even more, you should exclude any processed and fast food as well as dairy products from your diet as processed food is full of salt, sugar (or sugar substitutes) and preservatives, and dairy products can lead to the accumulation of mucus in the body (if you have weak digestion or lactose intolerance). Switching completely or partially to organic foods will also support the detoxification process by limiting the input of new toxins and chemicals from your diet.
Your cleansing program would also benefit from using a sauna, therapeutic massage and acupuncture.
Regular sauna visits will provide deep and total body cleansing as well as relaxation and will give you younger looking skin. In addition, saunas have a balancing effect on the psyche and emotions. To view tips on how to have a perfect sauna session go to our Blog.
Booking a massage therapy session during your cleansing program can be very beneficial to the detoxification process as this type of therapy stimulates blood and lymph circulation through the body.
Complementing your spring cleaning with acupuncture treatments can give you additional improvements in overall health and well-being. Traditional Chinese Medicine believes in the presence of 12 primary pathways (meridians) distributed throughout the body, most acupuncture points being located along these meridians. Needling points located on the liver and gallbladder meridian can improve the health of the liver as well as of related organs.
Don’t forget to exercise daily, especially outdoors. Jogging or walking, biking, Yoga, Tai Chi and Pilates are all great choices. Bouncing on a trampoline is believed to stimulate lymphatic flow extremely well and to help with detoxification, however make sure you know how to use the equipment safely.

How to have a Perfect Sauna Session!
- Have a light meal before you go to the sauna.
2. Remove your clothes and jewellery. In North American public saunas it is customary to wear a bathing suit, check with your facility regarding proper sauna attire.
3. Shower with warm water and soap and then dry yourself off.
4. Dry brush your whole body to promote faster sweating.
5. Enter the sauna slowly and close the door behind you.
6. Step slowly onto the first level bench and lie down on your towel. Your head should be slightly elevated on the wooden headrest. Your whole body should be on the same level. Stay in the sauna for about 10 minutes.
7. Get up slowly. First lower your feet to the level below and do a few foot pumping exercises, then leave the sauna.
8. Breath fresh air, walk a bit and apply cold water from your feet upwards using a hose or shower. Rinse your face and head. After using the shower you may immerse yourself in a tub of cold water for a total cool down (if available). Have a resting period
9. After your rest, go back into the sauna and lay down on the second level bench. Repeat steps 6, 7 and 8.
10. Experienced sauna users may repeat steps 6, 7 and 8 one more time.
11. After your last sauna session, cool down completely, apply lotion to your skin and replenish lost fluid. Good choices are mineral or spring water, fruit juices or vegetable juices.
12. A massage would be very beneficial after the sauna as your muscles are soft and relaxed and in perfect shape for it.
13. Rest, meditate and take time to wind down.
14. Get dressed in clean clothes and have a light meal.
A sauna session can last between two and three hours and its effects on the body may last for about seven days. So set aside the same time every week to go to the sauna.

"Take it to Heart this February"
By Jolanta Kurz
Heart disease and stroke are now leading causes of death in Canada
Sedentary lifestyle, unhealthy diet, obesity, and chronic stress all contribute to increased risk of heart disease.
The good news is that even small changes in our lifestyle can improve our health and reduce this risk. Exercise, adequate water intake and nutrition as well as a balance between work and leisure are the pillars of better health.
A great way to help with the chronic stress issue, we are all facing, are massage therapy and/or acupuncture treatments. During massage session your “flight or fight” response caused by stressful situations will be turned off. This will be followed by drop in the blood pressure, redirection of the blood into internal organs and stimulation of digestive processes (“rest and digest response”) The body responds to tactile input from massage by stimulating the parasympathetic nervous system and causing relaxation of muscles and filling of bliss and well being. Addition of acupuncture to the treatments will offer a significant help in dealing with anxiety and stress and some other unpleasant symptoms like heart palpitations, chest tightness and high blood pressure. February is heart month and it is a great time to start thinking about your health and maybe time to try some drugless therapies like massage and acupuncture.
