The third week in January is National Healthy Weight Awareness Week. I haven’t been able to discover who originally designated it as such. But I did come across a source that said the week has been observed yearly since 1994. YOUR Healthy Weight According to Consumer Health Digest, one of the drivers of Healthy Weight Read more…

Prioritize Wellness in 2021

What a disaster the year 2020 has been for public health. Millions of people have sickened with Covid-19, and hundreds of thousands have died. But it has even been hard on those who haven’t caught the virus. Largely trapped in our homes and unable to be with friends and family, many of us have “fought” Read more…
Infrared Sauna for Cancer

The National Cancer Institute sponsors a fact sheet on “Hyperthermia in Cancer Treatment.” This sheet explains that hyperthermia is a treatment in which the body is exposed to high temperatures. Because cancer cells are typically weaker than normal cells, they may succumb to the high temperature without any injury to the other cells. If this Read more…
Photobiomodulation for Low Testosterone

Is photobiomodulation good for low testosterone? The answer is clearly yes if you’re a rat and a qualified yes if you’re a human being. I last wrote about photobiomodulation (PBM) and testosterone in August 2018. At that time, I had found a study that showed regular PBM treatments increased blood levels of testosterone in rats.

Massage for Neck Pain

According to The Idioms, the phrase “pain in the neck” originated as a less vulgar way to say “pain in the ass.” I guess one is more polite than the other. But I’ve had pains in both places, and I think a pain in the neck, all things being equal, is worse than a pain Read more…

When this tissue is injured, it can lead to plantar fasciitis, otherwise known as “stabbing heel pain.” The American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons says about two million people come under treatment for Read more…
Float Therapy for Muscle Recovery

In this blog, I have suggested a lot of uses for floating. They include weight control, managing PTSD, increasing creativity, reducing stress, and improving sleep quality, to name a few. But I haven’t yet gotten around to writing about its most spectacular success. So this week, we’ll look at float therapy for muscle recovery. And we Read more…
Cryoskin for Cellulite

To research cryoskin for cellulite, I consulted the most authoritative health organizations I know. Neither the World Health Organization nor the Center for Disease Control and Prevention offer any web pages that even mention cellulite. In other words, the WHO and the CDC consider cellulite to be such a trivial health consideration that they don’t Read more…
Infrared Sauna for Lyme Disease

In the northeast U.S., late October means we anticipate the end of tick season. And the end of tick season greatly reduces the threat of lyme disease. The problem, however, is that climate change may be extending tick season. If you walk a dog a lot, particularly in grassy or wooded areas, you may have Read more…
