BODY BRUSHING

Benefits of dry brushing for health and beauty?

The key to a healthy immune system is the endocrine system. Working together with the central nervous system, it was designed to keep the body vigorous and healthy to an advanced age.With poor nutrition, sedentary life style and may pollutants in our environment, our glands can toxify provoking disease. Dry brushing stimulates the glands returning them to normal function.

Dry brushing can:

* Stimulate the eliminative capacity of the skin, helping it to rid the system of toxins, placing less of a burden  on the kidneys.lungs, and colon.

* Stimulates and increases blood circulation in all organs and tissues, especially capillaries near the skin, Especially valuable to the over-fifties, who commonly experience cold hands and feet resulting from clogged capillaries.

* By stimulating nerve endings in the skin, it can rejuvenate the entire nervous system.

* Drastically can reduce cellulite deposits-notoriously unresponsive to other forms of treatment.

*  Improve your general overall health. Can help prevent premature aging and increase resistance to colds.

* Tone and tighten skin.

* Improves clarity of thought. By stimulating the lungs and increasing oxygen to the brain, brushing actually has been said to improve thinking.

* Often relieves chronic headaches without recourse to painkillers.

* Brushing instantly releases tightness in neck and shoulders.

* Brushing can enhance both the quantity and quality of the red blood cells, which in turn can benefit your overall circulation.

 

What is dry brushing?

Two key physiological detoxification avenues of the body are blood cells and lymph tissue. Dry brushing can speed up the rate at which toxins are removed from the body as it motivates these two avenues.

Dry brushing is based on the ancient Chinese concepts of acupuncture and acupressure.It is recognized by the Chinese that three million nerve points spread over the skin, seven hundred of which are nodal. When these points are stimulated currents flow through channels called meridians and stimulate or suppress the activity of specific organs to which they are connected. Although medical research still does not exactly understand the mechanisms at work in acupressure and acupuncture, it is now generally acknowledged that they do work.

Dry brushing is designed to take advantage of these myriad connections. By applying proper friction to these points, your entire nervous system is stimulated and invigorated and the beneficial effects are directly conveyed to every organ,gland,muscle, and ligament in your body.Indirectly, even the production of red and white blood cells are affected.

Most people feel an immediate result after their first dry brushing session of intense physical well being.

How to get started?

Call to schedule your consultation to see if you are a candidate for dry brushing. If you are, you will be scheduled to start your dry brushing sessions. Once you learn the proper technique for you, your sessions can be done any time of day.

TRAMPOLINE BENEFITS

BENEFITS OF REBOUNDING:

Rebounding is a unique exercise in that you achieve a weightless state at the top of each jump then land with twice the force of gravity on each bounce. This twice-gravity bounce affects every muscle and cell of the body. Researchers at the University of Kentucky, in conjunction with NASA, concluded that “the magnitude of the bio-mechanical stimuli is greater with jumping on a trampoline than with running.”

Rebounding offers an exercise that can be adjusted to your fitness level, is easy on your joints and back, and can be done in your home at your convenience while providing a safe, gentle low-impact workout. Studies show that jogging or rebounding on a trampoline will burn more calories than traditional jogging. Exercising on a trampoline can also strengthen your heart, improve your circulation, stimulate the flow in your lymphatic system, revitalize vision, help slow the effects of aging, reduce stress, and benefit children with learning disabilities and cystic fibrosis.

 

31 Ways Trampoline Jogging/Rebounding can improve your Well Being

  1. Rebounding strengthens the heart and other muscles in the body so that they work more efficiently.
  2. Rebounding provides an increased G-force (gravitational load), which strengthens the musculoskeletal systems.
  3. Rebounding protects the joints from the chronic fatigue and impact delivered by exercising on hard surfaces.
  4. Rebounding helps manage body composition and improves muscle-to-fat ratio.
  5. Rebounding aids lymphatic circulation by stimulating the millions of one-way valves in the lymphatic system.
  6. Rebounding establishes a better equilibrium between the oxygen required by the tissues and the oxygen made available.
  7. Rebounding increases capacity for breathing.
  8. Rebounding circulates more oxygen to the tissues.
  9. Rebounding results in better mental performance, with keener learning processes.
  10. Rebounding tends to reduce the level to which the arterial pressures rise during exertion.
  11. Rebounding can lessen the time during which blood pressure remains abnormal after severe activity.
  12. Rebounding increases the functional activity of the red bone marrow in the production of red blood cells.
  13. Rebounding decreases the volume of blood pooling in the veins of the cardiovascular system preventing chronic edema.
  14. Rebounding improves resting metabolic rate; therefore more calories are burned for hours after exercise.
  15. Rebounding causes muscles to perform work in circulating fluids through the body to lighten the heart’s load.
  16. Rebounding encourages collateral circulation by increasing the capillary count in the muscles and decreasing the distance between the capillaries and the target cells.
  17. Rebounding lowers circulating cholesterol and triglyceride levels.
  18. Rebounding lowers low-density lipoprotein (bad) in the blood and increases high-density lipoprotein (good) holding off the incidence of coronary artery disease.
  19. Rebounding promotes tissue repair.
  20. Rebounding for longer than 20 minutes at a moderate intensity increases the mitochondria count within the muscle cells, essential for endurance.
  21. Rebounding adds to the alkaline reserve of the body, which may be of significance in an emergency requiring prolonged effort.
  22. Rebounding improves coordination between the proprioceptors in the joints, the transmission of nerve impulses to and from the brain, transmission of nerve impulses and responsiveness of the muscle fibers.
  23. Rebounding improves the brain’s responsiveness to the vestibular apparatus within the inner ear, thus improving balance.
  24. Rebounding offers relief from neck and back pains, headaches, and other pain caused by lack of exercise.
  25. Rebounding enhances digestion and elimination processes.
  26. Rebounding allows for deeper and easier relaxation and sleep.
  27. Rebounding can curtail fatigue and menstrual discomfort for women.
  28. Rebounding minimizes the number of colds, allergies, digestive disturbances, and abdominal problems.
  29. Rebounding tends to slow down atrophy in the aging process.
  30. Rebounding is an effective form of exercise by which the user gains a sense of control and an improved self image.
  31. Rebounding is Fun!
