Health Savings Plans....

Did you know that some employees have Flexible Health Accounts or Health Savings Plans?

Both of these are funds that may be used by an individual to pay for services such as health care or alternative therapies. Basically, money from your paycheck is put aside before taxes into one of these accounts. You must use these funds before the end of the benefit period which is typically when the next year hits otherwise the money will go back to your plan.

So if you are looking to try an alternative therapy such as Acupuncture or you are looking to give a gift for someone special come to our clinic to purchase a gift certificate!

We offer a variety of services ranging from:

-Acupuncture
-Smoking Cessation
-Weight Loss
-Nutrition Scans/Counseling
-Yoga

Is Yoga good for stress?

The health benefits of yoga......

The potential health benefits of yoga are numerous and may include:

• Stress reduction. With its quiet, precise movements, yoga draws your focus away from your busy, chaotic day and toward calm as you move your body through poses that require balance and concentration.
• Increased fitness. As you learn and refine new poses, you may enjoy improved balance, flexibility, range of motion and strength. And this means you're less likely to injure yourself in other physical endeavors or in your daily activities.
• Management of chronic health conditions. Yoga might help with a variety of health conditions, such as cancer, depression, pain, anxiety and insomnia, by helping with sleep problems, fatigue and mood. Yoga also can help reduce heart rate and blood pressure.
• Weight loss. If you're overweight or have binge-eating disorder, yoga may help you make the healthy lifestyle changes necessary to gain control of your eating and drop those extra pounds.

While you shouldn't expect yoga to cure you or offer 100 percent relief, it can help some health conditions when combined with standard treatment. And if you already enjoy good health, yoga can be an enjoyable supplement to your regular fitness routine.
