Complementary Therapies

Complementary therapies have been used for centuries to help manage various health conditions, and their popularity has increased significantly in recent years. Traditional medicine often uses these therapies to help manage symptoms and improve overall well-being. Complementary therapies aim to treat the whole person, not just the symptoms of a particular condition.

Some examples of complementary therapies include:

  • Acupuncture: This involves the use of thin needles inserted into specific points on the body to stimulate the body’s natural healing processes.
  • Massage therapy involves manipulating soft tissues in the body to help reduce muscle tension, improve circulation, and promote relaxation.
  • Herbal medicine: This involves the use of plants or plant extracts to help treat various health conditions.
  • Meditation: This involves the practice of focusing the mind on a particular object, thought, or activity to promote relaxation and reduce stress.

While some complementary therapies have been extensively studied and are supported by scientific evidence, others are not. It’s important to talk to a healthcare professional before trying new treatments to ensure they are safe and appropriate for your specific situation.

One of the benefits of complementary therapies is that they can help manage symptoms and improve overall well-being without medication or invasive procedures. For example, massage therapy can help reduce muscle tension and improve circulation, while meditation can help reduce stress and promote relaxation.

Complementary therapies can be a valuable addition to a comprehensive healthcare plan. However, it’s important to approach them cautiously and do your research before trying new treatments. Some complementary therapies may interact with medications or have side effects, so talking to a healthcare professional before incorporating them into your healthcare plan is important.

In summary, complementary therapies can be a helpful tool in managing various health conditions and improving overall well-being. However, it’s important to approach them cautiously, talk to a healthcare professional before trying new treatments, and do your research to ensure that they are safe and appropriate for your specific situation.

Sunday Photoshop Express Session

With digital photography, the worst photographer’s efforts into a manageable image. So today, I played around with some images on my iPad I took with my Nikon D3200 in full manual. I applied several different filters to the same image using PS Express. Here are some of the images I liked the best. As I continue to experiment with the software, I will post more of my results.






If anyone knows of any other photo editing applications I can try. Please let me know.

Flowers on Saturday

I love photography, but I can’t take a decent photo to save my bacon. However, I enjoy trying This beautiful creation that popped up in the yard today. Well, at least I noticed it today.

Tomorrow I will try to find something to shoot
