24.01.2022 Happy Monday everyone! I hope you all enjoyed your weekend. There's nothing better than a full body massage....except maybe a trip to the Bahamas.

14.01.2022 As we have more time during this self-isolation period, it is the perfect time for us to focus on self-care. How have you been taking care of yourself? There are many natural ways for us to take care of our body and muscles, including yoga. Yoga can relax your muscles, help with body alignment, and improve circulation (along with many other benefits), which can be done in the comfort of your own home. For those of you who would like an appointment with me, I am still open and practicing (just with some precautions). Feel free to contact me for an appointment. Otherwise, hope you are all staying safe and healthy during this time

12.01.2022 Acupuncture mechanisms in stroke rehabilitation. Abstract Acupuncture is recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO) as an alternative and complementary ...strategy for stroke treatment and for improving stroke care. Clinical trial and meta-analysis findings have demonstrated the efficacy of acupuncture in improving balance function, reducing spasticity, and increasing muscle strength and general well-being post-stroke. The mechanisms underlying the beneficial effects of acupuncture in stroke rehabilitation remain unclear. The aim of this study was to conduct a literature review, summarize the current known mechanisms in ischemic stroke rehabilitation through acupuncture and electroacupuncture (EA) therapy, and to detail the frequently used acupoints implicated in these effects. The evidence in this review indicates that five major different mechanisms are involved in the beneficial effects of acupuncture/EA on ischemic stroke rehabilitation: (1) Promotion of neurogenesis and cell proliferation in the central nervous system (CNS); (2) Regulation of cerebral blood flow in the ischemic area; (3) Anti-apoptosis in the ischemic area; (4) Regulation of neurochemicals; and, (5) Improvement of impaired long-term potentiation (LTP) and memory after stroke. The most frequently used acupoints in basic studies include Baihui (GV20), Zusanli (ST36), Quchi (LI11), Shuigou (GV26), Dazhui (GV14), and Hegu (LI4). Our findings show that acupuncture exerts a beneficial effect on ischemic stroke through modulation of different mechanisms originating in the CNS.
