Exercise & Alzheimer’s

Exercise has been shown to have protective effects against Alzheimer’s disease by supporting brain health and cognitive function. Regular physical activity promotes blood flow to the brain, stimulates the release of growth factors, and encourages neurogenesis—the formation of new brain cells. Exercise also reduces inflammation and oxidative stress, which are linked to Alzheimer’s progression. Studies suggest that both aerobic and strength exercises can improve memory, attention, and mental processing. Physical activity may also slow brain aging and reduce risk factors like obesity, diabetes, and hypertension, which are associated with Alzheimer’s. For optimal brain health, a consistent exercise routine is key.

Benefits of Frequency and Vibration

The underlying premise of Biofield Tuning is to charge our electrical bodies to their full battery level. Our bodies are connected to frequency, light, and magnetic electricity. When we tune, we employ this “charge” with sound using tuning forks in the biofield around our bodies. Since we mainly consist of water, and sound moves four times faster through water, frequency is very influential for our health and well-being. We are frequency and vibration, and sound is the ancient medicine that has been rising into our modern awareness. Your treasure awaits with sound therapy!
