			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Drinking water to lose weight is often overlooked. So many people are changing their diets, exercising and doing every other thing that will help them lose the pounds. However, drinking water gets passed by and then people wonder why they are having difficulties shedding the pounds.</p>
<p>If you don&#8217;t drink enough water, your body doesn&#8217;t function the way it should. Just to give you some examples of what happens when the body doesn&#8217;t have the water it needs, let&#8217;s talk about the kidneys and liver. One of the liver&#8217;s functions is to convert stored fat to energy. It also assist the kidneys when they aren&#8217;t functioning as they should. This usually happens because they don&#8217;t have enough water to do the job correctly. So the liver will kick in and take over some of the functions of the kidney. Unfortunately, this inhibits the liver from metabolizing fat as rapidly or effectively as it could be.<br />
<span id="more-351"></span><br />
As you can see, this can cause unnecessary fat storage, because the organs aren&#8217;t working like they need to be working. Water can change this situation and when everything is running smoothly, you are potentially preventing unnecessary fat storage in your body.<br />
<br/></p>
<h3>To drink water to lose weight how much do you need?</h3>
<p>First off, you need more than eight 8-ounce glasses everyday. If you&#8217;re trying to eat right and you&#8217;re also exercising, which you should be doing to successfully lose weight, you need to easily double the amount of water you drink each day. You&#8217;re probably shaking your head right now thinking, “what in the heck is he talking about? How can I drink a gallon of water a day?”</p>
<p>Well, it&#8217;s not as difficult as you think. You need to build up to that amount and if you drink consistently throughout the day, you&#8217;ll easily hit your mark.</p>
<p>For example, if you get up in the morning and the first thing you do is drink 2 cups of water, you&#8217;re already on your way. By the way, this is a good habit to get into. By drinking water the first thing in the morning, it starts up your metabolism and gets things moving first thing.</p>
<p>All you need to do for the remainder of the day is carry around a water bottle and drink 1 to 2 cups of water every hour. If you&#8217;re up for 12 hours in a day, you&#8217;ll easily drink enough water.</p>
<p>Drinking water to lose weight is like anything else, you need to get into the routine or habit of doing it. You might have to go to the bathroom a lot in the beginning, so have access to one. But, as your body gets used to the increase water intake, you won&#8217;t have to go as much. However, if drinking water to lose weight will give you what you need to shed those unnecessary pounds, isn&#8217;t it worth some minor inconveniences?</p>
<p>In summary, drinking water to lose weight is a necessary component of your overall weight loss program. It&#8217;s easy since we need to drink water, we just need to drink more of the right kind.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There&#8217;s nothing worse than acne except the acne treatments themselves. So many products and treatments on the market are too harsh. Even though they do help the condition, the results are so-so and the skin can be further damaged by these products.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m sure that after trying all the different treatments and products, you just can&#8217;t believe there&#8217;s actually something out there that can clear up the acne, leave the skin undamaged and in even better condition than before.<br />
<span id="more-343"></span><br />
It&#8217;s time to say hello to 21st century technology with a skin care line that truly delivers results. <a title="BIONOVA" href="http://www.bionovalab.com/bionova/Customer/index.jsp" target="_blank">BIONOVA</a> treats acne in a very natural way. There are absolutely zero chemicals and no forced exfoliation that can leave the skin dry.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s taken years and countless hours of study and research to arrive at a system that will not only eliminate blemishes and acne, but also restore and revitalize the skin back to its natural healthy state.</p>
<p>Bionova uses the exact same ingredients that are naturally present in the skin and body. Because of this, the body instantly recognizes all of these bioactive ingredients and absorbs and uses them to restore the skin to its optimal state.</p>
<p>You need to remember that the skin is an important barrier that protects us from the external environment and keeps us safe from harmful chemicals and elements. By using products that the skin and body doesn&#8217;t recognize or even tags as harmful, can lead to less than optimal results.</p>
<p>In fact, because of the science and the process incorporated into each product, the skin doesn&#8217;t even need to be exfoliated. The whole <a title="BIONOVA" href="http://www.bionovalab.com/bionova/Customer/index.jsp" target="_blank">BIONVA</a> skin care system helps the body&#8217;s own natural healing processes to naturally exfoliate on it&#8217;s own.</p>
<p>The thinking behind the science is that when the skin is able to function optimally on it&#8217;s own, all skin conditions, including acne, are improved. However, the acne skin care products take the next step.</p>
<p>Bionova acne skin care products:</p>
<ul>
<li>Reduce sebum production, which helps to control the oil on the skin.</li>
<li>Efficiently unclogs pores that are of full of bacteria.</li>
<li>Uses a proprietary anti-bacterial nano-complex called Bacto-Stat that effectively eliminates the bacteria while preventing the all too common dry skin that&#8217;s present with most acne treatments.</li>
</ul>
<p>In conclusion, skin care has never been so advanced and effective as it is today with <a title="BIONOVA" href="http://www.bionovalab.com/bionova/Customer/index.jsp" target="_blank">BIONOVA</a>. They&#8217;ve taken acne skin care to the highest level. It’s now possible to control acne and maintain the best skin at the same time. Say goodbye to dryness and skin damage from chemicals used in acne treatments and hello to a whole new world of healthy, clear and youthful skin.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In the world of technology, there is always another way to help restore beauty, even if it&#8217;s temporary. This is the thought when it come to oxygen facials. It&#8217;s a controversial type of procedure that has the medical community very skeptical, but consumers of the treatment are forever sold on its effect.<br />
<span id="more-335"></span><br />
Many celebrities have become oxygen facial followers and claim the outstanding effects received from a session.<br />
<br/></p>
<h3>What Are Oxygen Facials Supposed To Do?</h3>
<p>It&#8217;s the use of high-grade oxygen administered to the face via many devices manufactured especially for this purpose. The oxygen is compressed in a special machine and then a high-pressure spray targets the skin to deliver it below the skin surface to receive all it&#8217;s benefits. </p>
<p>Oxygen facials are supposed to increase absorption of the other active ingredients present. For example, a mixture of oxygen and hydroxy acid might be added to the mix to have a way to pass the skin barrier in receiving beneficial results from the treatment. </p>
<p>It&#8217;s become very popular because of the almost instant plumping and smoothing that’s experienced immediately after the oxygen is introduced. Many people, including many celebrities, have praised its total smoothing effect on the face and claiming that it brings the face near a flawless state.<br />
<br/></p>
<h3>How Are the Treatments?</h3>
<p>Oxygen facials use a very simple device that is produced to compress the oxygen. It looks like a generator with a spray gun to actually deliver the needed elements. The oxygen mask contains medical grade oxygen and uses a technology that&#8217;s called pressure swing absorption separation to deliver the very densely concentrated oxygen. The spray guns are similar to airbrushes.<br />
<br/></p>
<h3>Does it Work?</h3>
<p>Many people who receive oxygen facials swear by the results. They feel an instant plumping and tightening and the effects help them look their very best. Some say that there could be a limited amount of restructuring of collagen in the face. This would be due to the stimulated fibroblast activity brought on by the inflammatory effect. Many medical experts discount the effects and the results based on limited studies focusing on oxygen facials. However, somethings to think about are the results other people have had, without any side effects from the treatment. </p>
<p>Also, the results have been really temporary. The plumping and tightening are known to only last a couple of days. That’s why this kind of facial has been popular with those with a lot of disposable income. The stars get oxygen facials all the time and although they swear by them, they also pay the price to get them.. </p>
<p><br/></p>
<h3>What Are the Costs?</h3>
<p>The average cost of treatment is around $200. </p>
<p>In conclusion, the word is out on oxygen facials. So far without a lot of clinical studies to back up the treatment, they remain popular and have become more popular all the time.<br />
So if your looking for instant changes in your looks for the short-term, this treatment could be the one for you.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Detoxing your body is a critical step to improved health and longevity. In our day and age, with so much pollution, processed foods and unhealthy lifestyles, our bodies are full of gunk that we need to get rid of to function properly.<br />
Let&#8217;s face it, our bodies aren&#8217;t built to handle the nutritional and environmental garbage of the day. Our bodies are constantly trying to function properly and for most of us, were losing the battle.<br />
<span id="more-326"></span><br />
So what are some things that can be done right now to start reversing these effects and effectively start detoxing your body?<br />
The biggest change you can make immediately is to change the type of water and the amount you drink. Have you ever heard of alkalized water?<br />
It&#8217;s water that has been changed or converted to a form that&#8217;s healthy for the body. The cells of the body thrive on a slightly alkaline environment. In this environment, the cells can function at their peak and remain healthy and strong. Unfortunately, most people live in such a way that their bodies are highly acidic.<br />
This is because of the foods we eat, water we drink and the environment that we all presently live in. We can&#8217;t do a lot about the environment, but we can change the way we eat and drink. So detoxing your body by drinking a lot of vital, energetic water, can make a huge impact on the acidity of your body.</p>
<p><br/></p>
<h3>Is it hard to change the water?</h3>
<p>It&#8217;s very easy. There are many devices on the market that can effectively change the pH of the water that you drink. Now another component to detoxing your body with water is the amount that you drink. Most people need to drink a lot more water. Drinking a lot more alkaline water will quickly change the pH environment of your body even faster than food.</p>
<p>The reason for this is because the body is mostly made up of water. When you start drinking this energetic water, you&#8217;ll dramatically improve the functioning of every cell in your body.<br />
<br/></p>
<h3>What benefits can you expect from detoxing your body by drinking alkaline water?</h3>
<div class='one_half'>
					<ul>
<li>You&#8217;ll start to cleanse mucus, fermentation, inflammation and congestion in your digestive tract.</li>
<li>You start to purify your blood.</li>
<li>Strengthen the body&#8217;s ability to continue to generate healthy cells, while fighting off and destroying potential cancer cells.</li>
</ul>
				</div><br />
<div class='one_half last'>
					<ul>
<li>Reduce the free radical production in the body and increase the elimination of toxins.</li>
<li>Greatly improve most functions.</li>
</ul>
				</div><div class='clear'></div><br />
Of course, this is only a start. You still need to change the types of foods you eat. The majority of people&#8217;s diets are centered on highly acidic foods. You&#8217;ll need to start eating foods that a more alkaline. Interestingly, when people start making fruits and vegetables and major part of their diet and decreasing or eliminating processed foods, this makes a huge shift in eating a more alkaline diet.</p>
<p>In conclusion, detoxing your body is not as hard as you think. However, it&#8217;s crucial to your health and longevity. By starting with alkalized water and then slowly making changes in your diet, you&#8217;ll be on your way to greater health and a higher quality of life.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Have you ever wanted to wake up in the morning and not have to hassle putting on your makeup? Many women are tired of having to take off and then put on their makeup everyday. What if there was a way to finely have your makeup on permanently?<br />
In the age of technological and medical wonders, a procedure called micropigmentation can give you that look every day.<br />
<span id="more-312"></span><br />
<br/></p>
<h3>What exactly is micropigmentation?</h3>
<p>This process is what is referred to as permanent makeup. Tiny pigment granules that are metabolically inert are implanted into the epidermal layer of skin. This beautification practice goes back to ancient Asian practices and is now available to everyone around the world.</p>
<h3>Where do you get permanent makeup?</h3>
<p>Most women have the procedure done on their eyebrows, lips, eye lashes and even the nipple/breast area. Wherever they need to look their best without having to apply the needed makeup every day is where it is is applied.<br />
<br/></p>
<h3>Why would anybody want this procedure?</h3>
<p>There are many reasons why women don&#8217;t want to apply makeup everyday. Some of these reasons include:</p>
<ul>
<li>Conditions that prevent the use of your hands such as arthritis.</li>
<li>Active women who want to look their best even during exercise or don&#8217;t have the time because of their schedule.</li>
<li>Laziness- it just becomes an ordeal to get up every day and apply makeup as well as having to reapply it throughout the day.</li>
</ul>
<p><br/></p>
<h3>What are some disadvantages of micropigmentation?</h3>
<p>Although it&#8217;s labeled as permanent make up, that&#8217;s not entirely true. Over time age can cause the pigment to fade. Also if you&#8217;re in the sun a lot this can fade the makeup also.<br />
<br/></p>
<h3>Who do I visit?</h3>
<p>It&#8217;s really important that you only seek qualified practitioners that have a proven track record and great results. Ideally, you&#8217;ll want to find a board certified doctor who specializes in this procedure. Check out the doctor’s practice and ask for patient’s results. He or she should have photos of results that their patients have received.<br />
<br/></p>
<h3>How much does this procedure cost?</h3>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Do you want a more youthful face that’s non-invasive and quick and easy to have performed on you?</p>
<p>Then maybe it&#8217;s time for an intense pulsed light treatment (IPL). This fairly new treatment option has been giving good results to the right candidates. People like the fact that it&#8217;s so easy to receive, versus other forms of procedures such as <a href="/skincare/facial-chemical-peels-afa-a-milder-approach/">chemical peels</a> and microdermabrasion.<br />
<span id="more-298"></span></p>
<h3>What is an Intense Pulsed Light Treatment?</h3>
<p>IPL uses a variety of different intense pulsed light wavelengths to target the different conditions of your skin you want to improve. An experienced clinic will customize the variety of light wavelengths for your individual condition, so you get the very best results possible. The method of treatment is extremely flexible.</p>
<h3>Who’s An Ideal Candidate For This Type of Procedure?</h3>
<p>Most people who want to look better and don&#8217;t want to undergo more invasive procedures get IPL. For example, there are many individuals that are far too young for plastic surgery, but they still would like to make improvements. One word of caution, if you&#8217;re prone to having keloid scars, other types of scarring, you really don&#8217;t react very well to burns or if you have diabetes, this might not be the procedure for you.</p>
<h3>What Does an Intense Pulsed Light Treatment Help?</h3>
<p>Intense Pulsed Light Treatment – Light Never Created Such Beauty:<br />
<div class='one_half'>
					<ul>
<li>Fine lines and <a href="/skincare/wrinkle-treatment/">wrinkles</a></li>
<li>Broken capillaries</li>
<li>Liver or age spots</li>
<li>Freckles</li>
<li>Varicose veins</li>
</ul>
				</div><br />
<div class='one_half last'>
					<ul>
<li><a href="/bodycare/laser-hair-removal/">Unwanted hair</a></li>
<li>Minor sun damage</li>
<li>Facial flushing</li>
<li>Spider veins</li>
<li>Flat birthmarks</li>
</ul>
				</div><div class='clear'></div></p>
<h3>What&#8217;s the Process?</h3>
<p>The physician or health care professional will apply a mild topical anesthetic to the areas that are going to be treated. The light will be pulsed through a device that acts as a prism that&#8217;s placed over target area. You&#8217;re not going to have this all in one visit. It will usually take a series of sessions that are spaced three to four weeks apart. Although it&#8217;s non-invasive, the skin treated might be slightly pink immediately following the procedure.</p>
<p>The first session is usually very easy with each subsequent session being more and more aggressive.</p>
<p>Highly advanced machines are used to emit the light onto the skin surface. The different wavelengths effectively penetrate to different depths. So, depending on your condition or conditions, the doctor can use the appropriate wavelengths to receive the proper effect.</p>
<h3>What&#8217;s the Cost For an Intense Pulsed Light Treatment?</h3>
<p>It really does depend on what area of the country you live. However, on the average the cost will be around $300- $600 per treatment. The costs compared to other treatment modalities and the fact that it&#8217;s non-invasive without any downtime, makes it a viable solution to help you look better and younger.</p>
<p>In conclusion, intense pulsed light treatment has found to be very effective and can help many different types of skin conditions. Since it&#8217;s non-invasive and there’s little to no recovery time, it&#8217;s becoming a more popular choice to help you look your best.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Liposuction has been a very popular and effective way to get rid of unwanted body fat in areas that just never seem to want to let it go. Depending on a person’s condition and how much body fat they have on their bodies, they might opt to have one of the many non invasive liposuction procedures to contour the body the way they&#8217;ve always wanted.<br />
<span id="more-279"></span><br />
<br/></p>
<h3>What are These Non Invasive Liposuction Options?</h3>
<p>Before we discuss these, it&#8217;s important that you have a consultation with a qualified plastic surgeon so he or she carefully can explain all your options. </p>
<div class='one_half'>
					<ul>
<li><a href="/weight-loss/ultrasonic-fat-removal/" title="Ultrasonic Fat Removal- The Magic of Sound Waves to Zap the Fat">Ultrasonic fat removal</a> &#8211; This form of non invasive liposuction utilizes high frequency sound waves to liquefy the fat. The procedure can be used anywhere on the body and there&#8217;s not any pain involved.
It is important with this procedure that the doctor performing the treatment has experience and has done this successfully many times. If done incorrectly, there is a chance of burning, blistering and scarring.</li>
<p><br/></p>
<li><a href="/weight-loss/mesotherapy-proven-to-work/" title="Mesotherapy – The New Science in America That’s Been Proven to Work in France">Mesotherapy</a> &#8211; Technically this would be a minimally invasive procedure versus non invasive liposuction. This is performed by giving a series of injections into the targeted areas. The solution injected breaks down the fat and it dies. All the dead fat cells are then eliminated from the body leaving you with a newly contoured shape. This is fairly new in the United States. However, it&#8217;s been performed successfully in France for a number of years with numerous doctors performing this procedure on a daily basis. Therefore, it has been proven to work.</li>
</ul>
				</div><br />
<div class='one_half last'>
					<ul>
<li><a href="http://medspatoday.com/weight-loss/cryolipolysis-the-science-of-fat-freezing/" title="Cryolipolysis – The Science of Fat Freezing That Will Give You the Shape You’ve Always Wanted">Freezing the fat</a> &#8211; This technique seems kind of far out, but it&#8217;s being used more and more to contour the body and help those rid themselves of that stubborn fat. Like the other non invasive liposuction procedures, its goal is to breakdown and kill the fat. This technique uses a device that freezes the fat. This freezing action triggers lypolisis and the fat dies. It&#8217;s eliminated and  gone forever.</li>
<p><br/></p>
<li>Seaweed wraps &#8211; This isn&#8217;t a medical treatment, but it is non-invasive procedure with many people having it done all the time. This type of treatment doesn&#8217;t cause any stress, trauma and is painless.</li>
<p> <br/></p>
<li>Laser fat removal &#8211; Also known as thermage, this particular non invasive treatment procedure uses a laser to melt the fat and tighten the person’s collagen.</li>
</ul>
				</div><div class='clear'></div></p>
<h3>How to Find the Right Plastic Surgeon for Your Procedure</h3>
<p>Don&#8217;t rush into any of these different procedures without first finding a well skilled and qualified doctor. You need to not only check his credentials, but also see what results other patients have had. This might be a sensitive topic to talk about with friends and family, but  through word of mouth, you can find the doctor you&#8217;re looking for. </p>
<p>In conclusion, today there are many non invasive liposuction options to change your body shape so you can look your best. Be sure that you find the right doctor and also determine what would be the best procedure for your individual needs.<br />

		<title>Benefits of Magnetized Water – Our Bodies Need it To Stay Healthy</title>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There are many who know the benefits of magnetized water. If you think any kind of water is fine, then you&#8217;re mistaken. This type of water is overlooked, but is probably the most beneficial kind to drink.<br />
<span id="more-266"></span></p>
<h3>What makes this so beneficial?</h3>
<p>Just to give you an example, a while back scientist were faced with a fairly big industrial problem. When water moves through pipelines of machinery or boilers, water deposits usually attach to the pipes walls. With this constantly happening, over time the deposits buildup, narrowing the diameter of the pipe. As less water can flow, because of the deposits that have built up, the efficiency of that machine decreases drastically.</p>
<p>With this dilemma, scientists observed that when the water was magnetized, there wasn&#8217;t any deposit buildup. With this observation, they developed a way to magnetize all water that was used in industrial machinery to avoid this problem.</p>
<p>Much like machinery, the benefits of magnetize water can be applied to our bodies. Magnetization converts acidic water to an alkaline variety. The human body thrives on a slightly alkaline environment. Since our bodies are mainly composed of water, the benefits of magnetize water can be tremendous for our systems.</p>
<h3>What are some of the benefits of magnetized water?</h3>
<div class='one_half'>
					<ul>
<li>The main benefit is that it reduces our overall acidity. This helps the cells to be able to function properly. This decreases the excess of acid and bile in the digestive system. This is important because it then helps regulate bowels movement and expels accumulations.</li>
<li>Can help the heart. The benefits of magnetized water include reducing blockages in the arteries and normalizing the circulatory system. It&#8217;s just like the industrial example that I gave in the beginning of the article.</li>
</ul>
				</div><br />
<div class='one_half last'>
					<ul>
<li>Wound healing. The use of magnetize water has been very beneficial for washing wounds, swollen eyes, eczema spots and a variety of different eye infections. In fact when the water is magnetized by the North Pole it takes on anti-biotic healing properties.</li>
<li>Asthma and bronchitis. If you have colds, coughs, bronchitis, asthma and even certain type of fevers, this type a water can really help.</li>
</ul>
				</div><div class='clear'></div></p>
<p>So we&#8217;ve talked a lot about the benefits, but the question then becomes how do you convert normal water to magnetized water? It&#8217;s a matter of exposing the water to magnets for a specific amount of time.</p>
<p>In fact, the key to the extent of the magnetization that produces the degree of alkalinity is all dependent on the power of the magnets and how long the water is exposed to the magnetization. There are many products on the market that do a great job of using powerful quality magnets to be able to produce this water and see the benefits of magnetized water.</p>
<p>In summary, there are many benefits of magnetized water. When you find the right device to produce this vital water, you&#8217;ll have more energy and greater health than you&#8217;ve ever had before.<br />

		<title>Microcurrent – Electricity Has Never Ever Left You Looking So Good</title>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A technology that has been around for some time is now being used to help people look younger and feel better. This technology is called microcurrent. </p>
<p>It&#8217;s now being used as a new facial treatment that can increase collagen production, lift eyes, tighten sagging skin, increase cell renewal, reduce wrinkles and fine lines as well as eye bags and dark circles.<br />
<span id="more-258"></span><br />
<br/></p>
<h3>What Exactly is Microcurrent?</h3>
<p>It&#8217;s a very small amount of current that&#8217;s introduced to the skin during a treatment. This current is said to be biologically active with our own energy system. </p>
<p>As the current is introduced, the electricity finds and travels down the path of least resistance. Because the cells in our bodies require this energy to exist, this added energy will find the areas of damaged cells. It will help to restore the balanced energy function and start the process of rejuvenation and repair. It helps to normalize cellular activity of all the damaged cells.<br />
<br/></p>
<h3>Has it Been Successful?</h3>
<p>The microcurrent technology is the only type of beauty treatment available that can physically firm and tone your skin by means of muscle re-education. There have been many studies that have proven microcurrent to successfully work.</p>
<p>It was originally used in the medical field to help stroke victims who had suffered from bells palsy by re-educating muscle that had been weakened by the condition. Also, wound healing and injuries have been treated successfully by assisting in the healing process and preventing muscle loss as well as scarring.</p>
<p>Like previously mentioned, microcurrent has been recently adapted to the beauty industry  using this same technology to rejuvenate the face by toning and firming the skin.<br />
<br/></p>
<h3>Am I Going to Feel Any Pain?</h3>
<p>What&#8217;s great about this technology is the absence of pain during the treatment. It&#8217;s non-invasive and it&#8217;s a subtle, but powerful approach. A person that receives this type of treatment will only feel pressure of the muscles being treated by the current and sometimes a little tingling.<br />
<br/></p>
<h3>Who Can Have Microcurrent?</h3>
<p>With all procedures, this isn&#8217;t for everyone. Because of the nature of essentially using electricity in the treatment, those with cardiac conditions, especially those who have a pacemaker, should not have this type of procedure. Other contraindications include:</p>
<ul>
<li>Pregnancy</li>
<li>Thrombosis</li>
<li>Phlebitis</li>
<li>Epilepsy</li>
</ul>
<p>There are other conditions, but for cosmetic purposes, they won&#8217;t have an adverse effect because of the microcurrent use. When you sit down with a qualified doctor for a consultation, he or she can determine if this type of treatment would be right for you.<br />
<br/></p>
<h3>What Does the Treatment Entail?</h3>
<p>Micro current treatments aren&#8217;t a one-session deal. It usually takes around 10 visits to get the desired results. With continued treatments by a qualified doctor, this is a realistic non-invasive approach to facial toning and lifting.</p>
<p>In summary, micro current is becoming a way to tone and lift by applying and renewing the cells energy. It&#8217;s worth finding out about this new twist to an already proven science of healing technology.<br />
