My preventitive health doctor encourages routine body detoxing as we live in a toxic world and we’re all exposed to heavy metals and toxic chemicals.

A few months ago I received another great tip from Jane, my Traditional Chinese Medicine Doctor. This time she recommended Cramp Bark for – well – surprise surprise, cramps! I had never heard of it but off I went to buy this ‘so called’ Cramp Bark. Once again, I was not disappointed! Jane’s advice was [...]

My great friend and mountain biking buddy, Christina, had a big bike crash a week ago and was the new owner of the biggest bruise I have ever seen! It was so bad that her husband took her to emergency that night to make sure there wasn’t also a broken bone in her leg. Her [...]

He always has great tips so I knew that I needed to find this cream ASAP. I immediately went out and picked up a tube of ‘Traumeel’, made in Germany, and started [...]

My knee has had its fair share of icing the last few months. I borrowed a friend’s cryo cuff for my post-surgery and it did the job. It is a cooler with a cuff that wraps around the injured area, such as the knee. You add water/ice to the cooler which cools the ‘cuff’. The [...]

I had a question from a reader who was diagnosed with Lupus. They were wondering if I’d come across natural remedies to help with joint pain.

As you know, my knee surgery healing process is going incredibly well! I did a pre-hab which helped speed up my recovery process. Part of my pre-hab was taking homeopathic Arnica Montana. It speeds up the recovery period and minimizes swelling after surgery. I always have a supply of Arnica on hand as it comes [...]
