GO RED For WOMEN DAY

Always News You Can Use 🙂

As an Open-Heart Surgery survivor, who at a young age was confronted with a heart problem, I celebrate women’s heart health. WomenHeart Organization did not exist when I was faced with this anxiety producing challenge. Learn more about women and heart disease from the websites below. The more you know, the more likely it is that you can save your life, or someone else’s. Click the links below.

Chronic Pain and Revisiting Acupuncture

A few years ago, I was introduced to acupuncture via an article from a White Plains Hospital – Health Matters magazine. Having serious issues with arthritic pain in my hands made me consider this as an option for treatment. I mean, after all, how could I continue to bring you this news you can use every month – if my hands were not able to type? 🙂 More recently, I discovered an article on the WebMD blog – a source I often use for research. So once again, I am sharing this health information for your use and discretion as to whether it will work for you.

This is “News You Can Use” — and is provided to be an information resource of ideas that assist you to complement your “wellness” and “well-being” regimens to reduce stress, guide you in sustainability choices, and healthful living and is not a replacement to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any medical condition or disease. As always, I suggest you seek out the help of a trained professional for help with your specific situation.
