Acupuncture (it works [...]

I like ‘pro-health’ or ‘preventive medicine’ better than ‘anti-aging medicine’. It is way more positive and has a better vibe! ) A great quote from a great friend: “Support causes that are PRO something, not Anti. Energy goes where focus goes…!” So, what do YOU think?

My fantastic massage therapist, Andre, advised me to buy Traumeel, a homeopathic cream, which would help with swelling after my ACL Knee surgery. 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 [...]

I am back from a nice drive to beautiful Squamish, BC which is a half hour drive North towards Whistler from Vancouver. Today was my 3 week post-operation visit to see Dr. McConkey (great guy and incredible surgeon!). Dr. McConkey has done thousands of knee operations in the past 30 years! He is the Canadian [...]

It is 9 days post operation! I walked into Dr. McConkey’s office (no crutches) this morning and he raised an eyebrow and said ‘Wow, you are sure moving around fast!’…he then looked at my knee and said he’d never seen anyone heal so fast before. He has done thousands of knee surgeries! I just sat [...]
