Reflexology is a great form of preventative medicine. Its relaxing and stress releasing effect allows the body to restore energy while being filled/flooded with a general feeling of calm and well-being.

The origins of reflexology can be traced back may thousands of years. Many civilizations and cultures have used this ancient form of healing throughout history. The main principle of reflexology that has evolved with time and research is that the feet mirror the body.

Don’t despair – it is possible to live a healthier, happier life : )

Most of us have many responsibilities and worries, which if we don’t manage well, leave our emergency stress response turned “on” most of the time. The more your body’s stress system is activated, the harder it is to shut off.

Chronic stress disrupts nearly every system in your body and can lead to serious health problems. It can raise our blood pressure, increase the risk of heart attack and stroke, and suppress our immune systems. Not to mention it can speed up the aging process, and really, who needs that?!

Managing stress in our lives is all about taking charge and being in control of our thoughts, our emotions, our schedule, our environment, and the way we handle our issues.

Calgary Laserworks will help you manage the overwhelming effects of stress and anxiety and empower you to live a healthier, happier life…without meds! Contact us for a FREE consultation today at 403-301-3730.

Is Low-Intensity Laser Therapy Right for You?

Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT), also referred to as Cold Laser Therapy, is a CSA-approved low-intensity laser treatment that operates on the principle similar to acupuncture.

Each treatment typically takes approximately an hour. The total number of treatments is dependent upon many factors which will be evaluated by your certified laser technician. During treatment you’ll feel the laser device touching your skin, but the procedure is painless and noninvasive.

LLLT is as safe as it is effective and no serious side effects have been reported with this form of light therapy. It can be a good alternative for people who want to avoid invasive treatments.

How can Calgary Laserworks & Reflexology help improve your health?

You’ve heard the expression, “If you don’t have your health you have nothing.” Take it from those who are bedridden or restricted to a wheelchair because of their health, that this statement is true.

Studies have shown that stress has a huge effect on your health. Stress and worry can lead to immune system breakdown and heart-related issues. Smoking is another big factor in the state of your health. It causes lung disease, cancer, emphysema and coronary breakdown.

Studies also show that being grateful and happy can reduce stress. It is known that 50% of our inclination to be happy is genetic, something you can’t affect very much, 10% is based on surroundings (job, money and family), and 40% is “deliberate action”. Deliberate actions are things we can control through behaviour.

We asked the question, how can Calgary Laserworks and Reflexology help with your health?

It can help you stop smoking, reduce stress, help you relax, improve your immune system and much, much more.

Consider a Reflexology appointment as a relaxing time-out that you deserve. Call 403-301-3730 to arrange your appointment today. You’ll be happy to be improving your overall wellness and empowered to live a full, active life!
