Postconditioning with far-infrared irradiation increases heme oxygenase-1 expression and protects against ischemia/reperfusion injury in rat testis.



Life Sci. 2013 Jan 17; 92(1): 35-41
Tu YP, Chen SC, Liu YH, Chen CF, Hour TC

Studies have shown that heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) has a protective role in the mechanism underlying hypoxic preconditioning. We used a far-infrared radiation (FIR) heater to investigate the postconditioning protective role of HO-1 against ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury in rat testis.Forty rats were used. Testis ischemia was mimicked by total obstructive clamping of testis vessels for 1, 2, or 4 h, and concomitant postconditioning with 30 min FIR or heat light during initially 30 min reperfusion. HO-1 expression and apoptosis of testis tissues were examined by immunohistochemistry and in situ terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated deoxyuridine triphosphate nick-end labeling (TUNEL) assay, respectively. HO-1 protein level and caspase-3 activity were analyzed by Western blotting.There was less apoptotic activity in rat testis after FIR, as determined by TUNEL assay. Higher HO-1 protein expression was observed by immunohistochemistry and Western blotting (p<0.01) in testis cells after FIR postconditioning. In contrast, caspase-3 activity was significantly higher in heat light groups, as compared with FIR groups (p<0.01).FIR postconditioning attenuated I/R injury in rat testis by inducing HO-1 expression, which might have a protective role in testis apoptosis after I/R injury.

Considerations for National Public Health Leadership in Advancing Sexual Health.



Public Health Rep. 2013 3; 128(Suppl 1): 102-110
Ivankovich MB, Fenton KA, Douglas JM

Nations across the globe face significant public heath challenges in optimizing sexual health, including reducing human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), sexually transmitted infections (STIs), unintended pregnancies, and sexual violence, and mitigating the associated adverse social and economic impacts. In response, some countries have implemented national strategies and other efforts focused on promoting more holistic and integrated approaches for addressing these syndemics. This article describes opportunities for national leadership to use a more holistic approach to improve the sexual health of individuals and communities.

Far Infrared Sauna and Cancer - What You Need to Know | (888) 358-1270









Far Infrared Sauna www.RockyMountainSaunas.com | (888) 358-1270 Far infrared sauna family owned business that specializes in handcrafted workmanship of affordable infrared saunas and far infrared saunas and who is known for maintaining the highest standards in the infrared sauna industry. Rocky Mountain Saunas is the single largest Factory Direct Distributor for West Cost Saunas in the US with over 4500 and counting business locations and family clients. In the past several years, far infrared saunas are starting to be more widely used and more widely recognized as an effective therapy for cancer. There are several physical and chemical changes that take place in the body during the use of an infrared sauna that have been documented to be very effective. The first of these has to do with the fact that cancer cells themselves do not like heat, and because we're raising the core temperature of the body a degree and a half to two degrees, just the fact that we have an increased heat in the core of our body can kill some mutated or imperfectly formed cancer cells. There are other chemical reactions that take place in far infrared suanas that help as well. For instance, in the body magnesium produces nitric oxide. Nitric oxide acts as a catalyst, and the catalyst speeds more oxygen to every cell, muscle tissue, joint, every affected area. All disease itself is oxygen starved by definition. I'm sure your medical doctors will agree with that. Not a lot of contention there. So we <b>...</b>

Combination of acupuncture and spinal manipulative therapy: management of a 32-year-old patient with chronic tension-type headache and migraine.



J Chiropr Med. 2012 Sep; 11(3): 192-201
Ohlsen BA

The purpose of this case study is to describe the treatment using acupuncture and spinal manipulation for a patient with a chronic tension-type headache and episodic migraines.A 32-year-old woman presented with headaches of 5 months' duration. She had a history of episodic migraine that began in her teens and had been controlled with medication. She had stopped taking the prescription medications because of gastrointestinal symptoms. A neurologist diagnosed her with mixed headaches, some migrainous and some tension type. Her headaches were chronic, were daily, and fit the International Classification of Headache Disorders criteria of a chronic tension-type headache superimposed with migraine.After 5 treatments over a 2-week period (the first using acupuncture only, the next 3 using acupuncture and chiropractic spinal manipulative therapy), her headaches resolved. The patient had no recurrences of headaches in her 1-year follow-up.The combination of acupuncture with chiropractic spinal manipulative therapy was a reasonable alternative in treating this patient's chronic tension-type headaches superimposed with migraine.

Laser acupuncture in patients with temporomandibular dysfunction: a randomized controlled trial.



Lasers Med Sci. 2013 Feb 5;
Ferreira LA, de Oliveira RG, Guimarães JP, Carvalho AC, De Paula MV

A prospective, double-blind, randomized, and placebo-controlled trial was conducted in patients with chronic temporomandibular disorder (TMD) to check the analgesic efficacy of infrared low-power GaAlAs diode laser applied to acupuncture points. Forty female subjects, ranging in age from 20 to 40 years, with diagnoses of chronic myofascial pain and arthralgia were randomly allocated to two groups: an experimental group (EG) who received the laser acupuncture as adjunct to reversible occlusal splint therapy and a control group (CG) who received a placebo laser associated with occlusal splint therapy. Both approaches were applied once a week for 3 months. Laser acupuncture was defined by the following parameters: 50-mW continuous radiation for 90 s to acupoints ST6, SI19, GB20, GB43, LI4, LR3, NT3, and EX-HN3; defining 4.5-J energy; 1250-W/cm(2) density point; and 112.5-J/cm(2) total density. The outcome measurements included a symptom evolution assessment carried out by checking spontaneous and palpation pain intensity, which was indicated on a visual analog scale (VAS). All evaluations were made by an assessor who was blind to the treatment. The symptom reduction was significant in both groups (EG: VAS = 0, n = 20; CG: VAS between 2 and 4, n = 18). The measurements showed significantly faster and lower pain intensity values in the EG (p ≤ 0.002), where there was a higher proportion of patients with remission of symptoms related to the action of laser acupuncture. For patients in whom conservative treatment was adopted, the laser acupuncture is a secure, noninvasive, and effective treatment modality because it improves the chronic pain associated with TMD and has no side effects.

Bruce Lipton on Cancer & Quantum Healthcare









Dr Bruce Lipton PhD - cell biologist, former medical lecturer, and world-acclaimed author of three books on the New Biology - talks to David Holden on the truth about Cancer. He explains how cancer genes can predispose a person towards cancer, but don't mean a person WILL get cancer. In this frank conversation at his New Zealand home, Bruce explains the role of Epigenetics in determining health, and how gene expression depends on: - nutrition; - pollution, EMFs and toxins - our emotional states - what we perceive and how we see the world. What happens during stress, and how does it affect your immune system? The difference between old physics and new physics - and therefore old biology and new biology. Why energy is significant in shaping matter. Why conventional oncology is missing the point, missing a piece of the puzzle. Why nocebo (the opposite of placebo) can cause cancer and death. Bruce talks about this, and much more, in this video; and in his presentation at the Holistic Cancer Congress in Auckland, New Zealand this March 16th and 17th.

Evidence for determining the exercise prescription in patients with osteoarthritis.



Phys Sportsmed. 2013 Feb; 41(1): 58-65
Gaught AM, Carneiro KA

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic joint disease that affects more than one-third of older adults (age > 65 years), most often involving the hip and knee. Osteoarthritis causes pain and limits mobility, thereby reducing patient quality of life. Conservative, nonsurgical, nonpharmacologic treatment strategies include weight reduction, orthotics, physical therapy modalities, acupuncture, massage, and exercise. The breadth of the current literature on OA can make determining the appropriate exercise prescription challenging. Aerobic exercise, strengthening exercise, Tai chi, and aquatic exercise can all alleviate pain and improve function in patients with OA. The choice of the specific type and mode of delivery of the exercise should be individualized and should consider the patient's preferences. Ongoing monitoring and supervision by a health care professional are essential for patients to participate in and benefit from exercise.

Natural Remedies - Holistic Care









Natural Remedies - Holistic Care secretprofitboost.com Natural Remedies - Holistic Care Do you suffer from a chronic health problem, but you just can't seem to find a treatment that works? Look No Further! Natural Remedies May Just Be the Cure You're Looking For!" While some would view the holistic approach to treating illness and disease contrary to the wisdom of conventional medicine, quite the opposite is true in most cases. In fact, most conventional physicians view a patient with a desire to work to improve their overall health as refreshing. Holistic medicine is not mystical, and it is not mysterious. In fact, holistic medicine is much more real than many people realize. In order to increase the positive effects of medical treatment, it is necessary that the treating practitioner get to know the patient as an individual. Observation and discovery can often uncover potential problems before they begin and help the practitioner to address any specific problems experienced by the patient. A Majority of Holistic Medical Approaches Can Complement Traditional Treatments! Natural Remedies Holistic care treats the whole person, rather than just specific areas of the body. The primary difference between holistic care and conventional medicine is that holistic practitioners try to use naturally occurring substances to treat illnesses and disease instead of manufactured chemicals. Additionally, there is a focus on alternative therapies including chiropractic care, acupuncture <b>...</b>
