GENERAL HEALTH
Complementary Medicine is growing at a phenomenal rate. More and more people are deciding to take responsibility for their own health and wellbeing. They are realising that there is a world of difference between optimal health and just the absence of disease. Many are understandably concerned about drug side effects and hospital 'superbugs'. However, a more natural approach to health is no longer just for the hippies - medical research is proving that Nature may know a thing or two!

HEART AND CIRCULATION
Disorders of heart and circulation are high on most people's agenda nowadays. They are currently the greatest threat to health, killing more people each year than any other disease - but it isn't all bad news. There is plenty of research out there suggesting a more optimistic outlook - both prevention and treatment protocols are available that don't necessarily involve drugs or surgery. Read about some of the encouraging advances which are being made in the field of natural medicine.

MUSCLES, JOINTS AND BONES
Osteopaths have traditionally been associated with the manipulative treatment of musculo-skeletal disorders - more known for their treatment of bad backs and strained muscles than for the management of IBS. However, in the early days of last century, osteopaths dealt with a much wider range of disorders than nowadays. Even though most of us still spend the majority of our time with muscles and bones, there are other aspects of osteopathy which can also be of interest. Read about some of them here, along with some recent research.

NUTRITION
There are huge advances in areas of health which are amenable to nutritional intervention. Everything from heart disease and cancer, to fertility and diabetes can be influenced by what you eat. Your body has an amazing ability to heal and rebuild itself, so it is worthwhile giving it the raw materials that it requires. After all, in a year's time almost all the molecules which currently make up the tissues of your body will have been replaced by new ones ... what a wonderful opportunity to improve your health!

PSYCH-K™- what it is, and what it is not...
PSYCH-K® is a profound set of processes which assist the subconscious mind to re-write self-limiting subconscious programmes (beliefs), changing them into life-enhancing ones. Many people find these unconscious, self-limiting beliefs create self-sabotaging behaviours. Such behaviours covertly affect one’s ability to be successful in business and personal relationships. These invisible issues are often the ruling programmes that silently lead people to despair, frustration and exasperation in their lives.

Vitamin D articles
Vitamin D 'the sunshine vitamin' has long been associated with bone health. Initially it was recognised as the main player in the prevention of rickets in children, then subsequently the focus shifted to the role of Vitamin D in osteoporosis. However, there are now innumerable research papers which have further expanded the functions of this most important of vitamins - protection from cancer, heart problems, autoimmune disorders, improvements in general immunity - the list goes on, and lengthens weekly. This seemingly inexhaustible list is better understood when it is realised that Vitamin D is, in fact, a hormone, rather than a metabolic 'co-factor' like most other vitamins. As such it has the potential to have an effect on every cell in your body! Not so surprising that Vitamin D has so very many advantageous effects...

WOMEN'S HEALTH
A woman's health is enormously dependant upon the hormone balance in her body. Fortunately there are gentle alternative ways to influence levels of oestrogen, progesterone and thyroxine, for instance. When there are problems of 'un-health' as opposed to disease, it may be that nutrition and complementary therapies can offer safe and effective relief. Whether it is teenage acne, PMS, painful periods or menopausal imbalances, you might like to consider Nature's remedies first.
