The Healing Phenomenon - (USA)
Have you ever gone for an alternative health treatment and ended up feeling worse? This phenomenon is known as the "healing crisis."As I mentioned in my previous post, Chiron, Mercury, and Neptune all went retrograde within 24 hours last week. As far as I know, we haven't experienced this particular retrograde timing in my lifetime. Astrologers could only venture a guess as to how these combined energies would manifest. I figured it would have something to do with healing old wounds, and this ap

She subsequently decided to seek, “alternate options” after discussing her condition with a member of the New Zealand Light and Colour Therapy Institute .

The anaesthetist sterilizes his scalp and injects it with Nupercaine to produce analgesia - the patient will remain fully conscious throughout the procedure.

The Early Warning Signs Of Diabetes - (USA)
by Ned Dagostino The food we eat is digested to produce energy for us to live and to work. The main component produced by digestion is glucose (a basic form of sugar). The glucose is transported by the blood to all parts of the body. The level of glucose in the blood is maintained at the proper level by a regulatory mechanism. Sometimes, the glucose level cannot be maintained at the proper level and it shoots up. This leads to a condition known as diabetes. Diabetes can have dangerous conseque
