What Actually Is Health?Written by Dr. Jamie Fettig
Nature works mostly on principle of thing and no thing. Light is thing and darkness is absence of light. Sound is thing and silence is absence of sound. Health is thing, and symptoms and disease are absence of health. But some time back they got mixed up. Somehow symptoms and disease became thing, and once you treated away symptoms and disease, you would be left with health. And yet most people know that health is more than absence of symptoms and disease. So what does this mean? It means you have to do something other than treat symptoms and disease to be healthy. Let me show you why. If there are shadows or darkness in a room, only way to get light in room is by turning on light. No matter how many ways you can measure and quantify shadows, you cannot sweep them under a rug, cut them out of room, or invent some chemical to get rid of shadow. The only thing you can do is turn on light.

Massage Therapy is a massage session that takes place in a warm, comfortable and quiet area as you lie on a specially-designed table. Sometimes, soft music is played for relaxation. A professional massage therapist with proper training will perform massage therapy. Usually, massage therapy is done with client disrobed. It is, however, up to individual whether or not to undress. Through massage therapy session, you will be properly covered. Typically, a full body session includes therapeutic massage on your back, arms, legs, feet, hands, head, neck and shoulders. Depending on massage therapy technique utilized, your body should become relaxed as session progresses. Some massage therapy methods include Swedish massage, deep-tissue massage, reflexology, and acupressure/Shiatzu massage. Each of these massage therapies uses variant strokes, posture and pressure application to specific points. Always ask your practitioner about which technique he or she utilizes. In most cases, a massage therapy session lasts about an hour. For optimal relaxation, try a 90-minute massage therapy visit. Massage
