A CLOSER LOOK AT ACUPUNCTURE AND HOW IT WORKS….

Years and years ago now, acupuncture was the only thing that gave me relief from my debilitating low back, sciatic pain. I was afflicted with it for over a year on and off and could not bend or move and would have to remain flat on my back as the only relief. Massage, chiropractic care did not touch it. I prayed and asked for help and finally one pouring rainy, Labor Day, Friday evening in Clearwater, I received my first treatment. From there, I went on to pursue my next carreer and I thank God the pain never returned after that. I did it without drugs or surgery and am forever grateful that God works in mysterious ways. My low back pain turned out to be a blessing in disguise as within that same time I began to develop carpal tunnel and was no longer able to do much massage which was a thriving practice for me. It was hard to let go of all my clients, but I had no choice and there was a period of transition where I had not completed my schooling for acupuncture and yet I could not physically perform much massage. I made it however and was so glad that my back pain led me to acupuncture. See my HUFFMAN WELLNESS FACEBOOK PAGE and LIKE PLEASE! Also my HUFFMAN WELLNESS BLOG. THANKS SO MUCH. I LOVE HELPING MY CLIENTS RETURN TO HEALTH! GOD BLESS!! SHARE YOUR STORY OF YOUR SUCCESS IF YOU HAVE BEEN TO ME! IT IS MY GREATEST REWARD TO HEAR AND KNOW HOW ACUPUNCTURE AND MY TREATMENT HELPED. SOMETIMES IT IS ONLY IN SUBTLE WAYS BUT IT DOES WORK ALONG WITH THE CHINESE HERBS.

HOW ACUPUNCTURE WORKS


When I first studied acupuncture, after it was the only thing that relieved my low back degenerative disc pain and sciatica, I learned from a reputable teacher, that the acupuncture needle acts like a little lightning bolt that taps into the bodies bio-electrical energy, thereby releasing the body's natural pain killers such as endorphins, neurotransmitters from the brain to the site of inflamation along with flooding the body with these feel good hormones. No wonder I loved it, for a whole week I felt like someone had given me an elixir and nothing seemed to bother me! I was calm, mellow yet energetic. Yes, my pain had dissipated, but better than that was my calm energy. That is why it works so well for anxiety and depression in addition, which as we know, is often a result of the pain or an inducement of the pain. It took time for my low back pain to totally go away, about two months as I never wanted it to come back and it did not, as I kept up my treatments once or twice a week. After a year, on and off of debilitating pain and being flat on my back, I was elated! Call me today

ACUPUNCTURE, A SAFER ALTERNATIVE TO DRUGS!

I hate taking drugs but when you are in pain it is easy to take a nonsteriodal anti-inflamatory especially if your joints hurt and you have osteo or rhematoid arthritis or pain and inflamation anywhere really.  So I googled Chris's take as I trust his in depth research as a clinician and I will share that he says they actually ware the cartilage down further as they reduce blood flow to eliminate the inflamation with long term use. Of course we know these drugs are meant to be taken long term to effectively get into your system and reduce the inflamation better.  I often hear of my clients suddenly finding out they are Bone on Bone in one of their joints.  My response is wow did you not have any warning or were you just popping Ibuprofen or Allieve for years??  Yes they worked apparently, but were they also as they controlled the daily pain waring out your cartilage that supports your joint?? I will share that article next but first an alternative to help your pain with Acupuncture, call Huffman Wellness today at 813-831-6080!!
When you have pain it is easy to pop a nonsteroidal anti-inflamatory but it is known that after time these reduce blood flow to the cartilage of a joint if you have arthritis, complicating the joint problem even more by destroying the cartilage. So I share this article cause pain is no fun!!

Five reasons acupuncture beats western medicine as a primary healthcare modality.

BOOSTING SPERM COUNT WITH ACUPUNCTURE/ OTHER LIFESTYLE FACTORS


http://www.alternet.org/pers…/50-ways-boost-your-sperm-count. ACUPUNCTURE OPENS UP THE BLOOD FLOW BY STIMULATING THE MERIDIANS IN THE LOWER ABDOMEN/PELVIC REGION. BLOOD IS LIKE FOOD AND SUNSHINE TO THESE SWIMMERS. IT CAN TAKE UP TO 6 TO 9 MONTHS IF THERE ARE NO SPERM AND OFTEN A TESTICULAR EXTACTION HAS TO BE PERFORMED. IF NUMBERS OF MORPHOLOGY, COUNT AND MOTILITY ARE JUST BELOW AVERAGE TO LOW THEN WE SAY 90 DAYS TO 120 TO IMPROVE, IF HEALTHY DIET AND LIFESTYLE ARE ALSO INCLUDED. MORPHOLOGY TAKES THE LONGEST.

Want the best sperm in the world? Then try all 50.

UMBILICAL CORD? MOM'S OR BABY'S? WHAT IF CHILDREN ARE TWINS?

The other day one of my newly pregnant Moms with twins asked if the umbilical cord is part of her body or the fetus? And if there are twins is there two cords? Good questions.one that most mom's probably never thought of.


Do mothers have just one umbilical cord? What if the children are twins?

I mean if there's just one cord, how can two siblings survive?

The umbilical cord is not part of the mother. It's part of the fetus, developing out of its original blastema. It attaches the fetus to the uterine wall via the  placenta. The placenta is also part of the fetus.

As such, expectant mothers who are pregnant with twin or triplets or however many there may be have as many umbilical cords inside them as there needs to be, one per soon-to-be baby.

D-Ribose and ATP's Influence in Reproduction and Energy Production in General

We know that second to the heart, the Reproductive system has the next greatest need for vascular supply. The reproductive system runs on a separate, secondary vascular system, meaning the vital organs are the first to recieve the blood supply needed to keep them functioning and it has its own vasuclar system. If those are running up to par with good blood supply for energy production within the cells of those organs, then the secondary vascular system can get the blood supply it needs, which has been shown to be second only to the heart. This is why couples who come to me who are stressed, overworked, and not sleeping or eating well and trying to fit in a social life, partaking in alcholic drinks and perhaps sugar based indulgeneces, then getting up at 6 AM or earlier to workout, 5 days a week, often cannot conceive or their reproductive systems are off balance or diseased. ATP production is the energy within the mitochondria of the cells which is considered the powerhouse within the cell. ATP production is paramount to the cellular division of a fertilized embryo from the moment it fertilizes to a 2, 4, 6 and finally an 8 cell which for those of you undergoing or who have undergone IVF, is the ultimate "Marula Stage" of the embryo or "day 5 embryo". If it makes it to this stage and the quality is good, there is a pretty good chance it will survive transfer into the uterus for implantation and make it to a blastocyst stage, which is a 64 cell division. By good quality, I mean, no fragmentation or crumbling looking cookies, nice even circular cell division. All of this is the job of the chemical ATP, which is crucial in so many cellular and muscular systems of the body as the article conveys. In my opinion, after reading about D-Ribose for a patient, I recently treated with acupuncture who had a moderate stroke, it could also be very beneficial for my patients with Infertility and the cellular division of a fertilized egg, perhaps even before that in the production of healthy follicles and sperm for both quality and quanity. Though I have not researched this, it is my knowledge on ATP and its importance in reproduction and normal cell division within the body that occured to me it could be very beneficial. I, myself took some chewables today and found my energy much improved and with cool weather like this it was nice to be outside. On my next post, I will share with you some pictures of embryos before 3 months of acupuncture and herbs and after and the quality difference. It is quite remarkable! As certain herbs, particularly Kidney Yang tonics have been shown to improve ATP production, however, it is the Kidney Yin herbs that nourish and restore as ATP production in itself gives off Free-Radicals, and it is the Yin herbs that offset that, in part I think that is the role of D-Ribose as it seems to restore the energy more than actually produce it.

Caring for our Eggs and Sperm takes time….


Caring for our eggs/sperm and healing our bodies takes time. In Rebecca Fett's book review of It Start With the Egg she states: "After enduring several IVFs that ended in miscarriage, I believe the reason I was ultimately successful in having children is because I waited eight months before trying again, taking the time to heal my body--to rid it of stress, environmental toxins, and fertility drugs--and build it up with things like supplements, acupuncture, and herbs."
