Diabetic Neuropathy

Diabetic neuropathy is nerve damage caused by diabetes. Over time, high blood glucose levels can damage the small blood vessels that nourish your nerves with oxygen and nutrients. Without enough oxygen and nutrients, your damaged nerves can cause a loss of sensation in your feet, while others may experience a burning or shooting pain in their lower legs. VoxxLife HPT has been proven to improve circulation. In a clinical study involving 1,000 participants, more than 90% reported significant reduction in pain from diabetic neuropathy by using VoxxLife HPT technology.

Daily Routine Struggles?

Dopamine, our motivation chemical, is highest in the morning. That’s why it can be helpful to tackle the “hardest” things first and set up a dopamine wave early in the morning. Have a morning routine consisting of discipline-building behaviours – a cold shower is perfect, as it is uncomfortable. Once you overcome an obstacle this big, the other “hard” tasks seem easy in comparison. Other examples are a morning workout or meditation session. This can help you face everything your day throws at you, big or small. Life is won with a series of decisions that build on each other!

Allergies & Bio-Resonance

The bio-resonance method has become well-known for its ability to treat allergies swiftly and effectively. Word of its obvious success has rapidly spread amongst clients, and consequently, many allergy sufferers are seeking out the practices of bio-resonance therapists. This is certainly attributable to the fact that the number of people suffering from allergies has been steadily increasing for years. This includes allergies to food, animals, pollen, fragrances, and various toxic substances. A bio-resonance therapist will search for the allergens triggering your symptoms and then work to alleviate those symptoms using frequency therapy. Bio-resonance therapy is completely painless and non-invasive.

Rebooting for a BETTER You!

Life can get busy, stressful, and downright wild sometimes. And often, we put our own well-being towards the bottom of the to-do list. Not this month! This month is about getting back to better. There’s a reason flight attendants tell parents to put their own masks on before helping others. You must take care of yourself first in order to care for others. You know your body better than anyone else. During self-isolation, did you gain the ‘pandemic paunch’ or the ‘quarantine fifteen’? If you know it’s time to get back to feeling your best, a well-designed supplementation system rooted in science can help benefit you mentally and physically!

Caring for your teeth and visiting your dentist are important, even during a pandemic. Some new safety measures that many of the dental clinics have introduced, like masks, gowns, bonnets, and face shields, are obvious. Others, like HEPA air filtration and negative ventilation systems, are working quietly in the background of many clinics. In closed rooms, these measures remove 99.97% of particles from the air helping to ensure your safety and the safety of the staff, so you can breathe easy while your smile gets the care it deserves.

Boost Mental Health & Performance at Work

During this global pandemic, the need for mental health support has increased fourfold. As an employee, the best thing you can do for your mental health is to be vocal. If you are struggling, speak up or use the Wellness Together Canada free resources. Waiting causes longer term damage impacting productivity and quality of life. If you are an employer, ask how you can support your team every day. Then, make or get a Mental Health First Aid kit and put it somewhere visible to demonstrate mental health is just as important as physical health. Include things like motivational cards, mindfulness colouring sheets, stress balls, breathing exercises and general resilience tips.

Setting Boundaries in Relationships

Do you think it’s important to grow your personal life skills? What would the benefits be? What about personal boundaries? Are you struggling with relationships? Does it feel like you are giving too much? Are your values being compromised? Boundaries keep the good in and the bad out! They define who we are and who we are not. They help us understand where our responsibility ends, and others’ responsibilities begin. Boundaries are essential for creating healthy relationships and ensuring our needs are being met, whether physical, emotional, or mental. The autonomy established by setting boundaries is very important for self-care.
