I remember c o m i n g home from work the day after they installed our beautiful HotSpring® Spa. I sat my briefcase down just inside the front door, walked through the house and straight out the back door. I pulled back the cover of our new spa and as my glasses fogged over from the rising steam, I kicked off my shoes. Would I recommend getting into a hot tub fully clothed? Sure, everybody should do it once! Come home to quality. Come home to a HotSpring® Spa.

In the ever changing times, good health is more important than ever. Prevention is the key to improved health. At Sierra Nevada Memorial Hospital we offer education and screenings that can put you on the track to a healthier lifestyle.

“The biggest thing you can do for your health is pay attention,” said Wellness Center Director Debbie Wagner, RN.

To encourage a sustainable change, the Sierra Nevada Memorial Hospital Wellness Center offers free and low-cost options to give you the necessary tools to stay motivated. A Health Risk Appraisal for example, includes a blood draw for lipid levels, cholesterol and glucose, along with a 20-page computerized lifestyle assessment profile. This personal, comprehensive health profile offers you a snapshot of your present risk factors, along with a plan for making changes to positively impact your health.

We now also offer a full body Bone Density and Body Fat scan. It has been proven that proper diet and exercise decrease bone loss and reduce the incidence of fractures. Results of the scan are provided by a registered dietitian or registered nurse who will help you learn better dietary strategies for preventing the decrease of bone mineral density.

Steps such as eating calcium rich foods and taking calcium supplements has been shown to improve overall bone strength, said Wagner.

This screening is recommended for those with a family history of osteoporosis or those who are prone to bone fractures. It is good for women who want to maximize their prevention strategies for bone strength as they age.

levels, a health risk questionnaire and fitness testing. Wagner, a registered nurse, goes over all assessment results with participants so they understand where their current state of health is. That includes body fat composition, lung function, flexibility, and “good” and “bad” cholesterol levels.

Wagner emphasizes that the appraisal and bone density screen shouldn’t take the place of an annual physical exam with your physician. But it does compliment the information you receive and provide a well-rounded picture of your health. Beyond that, the results may extend your healthy changes into a lifestyle rather than a temporary diet.

“I’m not going to tell you a whole lot you don’t already know. Eat right and exercise. But getting an appraisal and/or bone scan and knowing your state of health keeps you motivated to stick with a healthy lifestyle,” Wagner said.

The aim of our wellness center is to help you achieve your optimal state of health, whether that means maintaining good health or developing skills to live comfortably with chronic conditions. We offer a wide range of classes for the community on chronic disease management, wellness and nutrition. For more information, to sign up for a screen or to speak with someone regarding our programs please call the Wellness Center at (530) 274-6124.

Eating right and regular excercise is important for good health. Getting a Health Risk Appriaisal and a bone scan helps you to know your state of health and can encourage you to stay with a healthy lifestyle.

Chiropractor: John L. Mayfield, D.C.Years in Practice: 37Telephone Number: (530) 272-8839 Location: 565 Brunswick Road, Suite 12, Grass ValleyType of Business: The oldest state-approved college and professional training program for the study of Ayurvedic Medicine in AmericaHours of Operation: Mon. -Thurs. 9:20 a.m. to 6 p.m.Services Offered:

Rub out soft-tissue injuries; gentle spinal alignment; teach core strengthening exercises that effectively realign the spine each time you perform them; teach and work with patients on posture, gait, lifting and other ergonomic issues that come in the course of their acts of daily living; mind/body/ spirit focus in dealing with patient issues.

What is a Chiropractor and what are the benefits of using one? A chiropractor realigns his patient’s spinal column, and all of the bones of his or her extremities. This allows every cell to communicate clearly with every other cell—the simple definition of health. Because you have 14 gross and subtle circulatory systems, that depend upon the spine for their integrity, restoring correct spinal alignment causes every part of your body to improve its function. Chiropractors promote health holistically, instead of fighting diseases. We treat the body, not the disease.

What do you tell all of your patients to do? Work at having better posture each year than the year before: Keep your feet parallel. Breathe out forcefully from your lower abdomen. Breathing back in is a passive function. As forcefully as you breathe out, you will automatically breathe back in at the same magnitude. This is the first habit that will change your life. Posturally it keeps your abdominal muscles and low back muscles in a state of balance. Always allow your torso to lengthen and broaden. Relax your shoulders and always feel the back of your skull pushing upward. Your forehead should rock forward, so if you had a miner’s lamp on your forehead it would be shining on the ground 45 feet in front of you.When walking up stairs or hills, or when picking anything up, keep your torso erect and really stick your buttocks out. Keep your feet parallel.

What is one is one thing that you tell everyone to do? Keep your teeth healthy by brushing with a Sonic Care or other

electric toothbrush for 2 minutes every day. Use floss or toothpicks to clean plaque between teeth and under gumline. Chew Xylitol gum to suck on xylitol mints to prevent decay. Mouth rinses containing essential oils can reduce microbes that cause periodontal disease and decay. Visit your dental hygienist every three to four months for plaque and calculus removal above & below the gumline.

What is your favorite product on the market and what are its benefits? There are new and exciting products being introduced all the time.

There have been great advances in what is know as “open fit” devices. The open fit hearing devices do not require custom made molds thus allowing instant fitting and demonstrations of the product. These open fit devices have fantastic sound qualities and are nearly invisible.

What are some common misconceptions of hearing aids? “Since the patient can hear there is no need for hearing aids.” The best

to explain this is to compare it to eyeglasses. If you are blind eyeglasses will do you no good. The same with hearing. If you are literally deaf, hearing devices cannot correct the problem. People wear eyeglasses to correct a seeing problem. Hearing devices correct a hearing problem.

Services Offered: Soulworkers embraces a 21st century approach to spiritual awakening.

It incorporates a holistic and integrated view of how a soul evolves. This is presented through confidential private sessions and group classes.

What are the benefits of holistic health care? Holistic health care offers a more complete approach to any issue

beyond simply treating the symptoms. It looks at the interlocking aspects of what it means to be a human being beyond what is manifesting on the surface. Consequently it can often lead to a deeper and more lasting way of being with life’s challenges.

Where did the idea of holistic health care come from and why is it being practiced today? Holistic health care has been around for a very long time. You can

usually find examples of its existence in indigenous cultures around the world. Most would typically look at what was behind the symptoms before treating the actual manifestations. Today, with humanity coming to understand the limitations of western approaches to healing, we see a growing reason to look beyond our cultural walls and what we have been taught to be true. The internet has been a big asset in this regard.

spirit. The holistic practitioner takes the time to understand the whole person and their unique pattern of physical, mental, and emotional traits. A homeopathic practitioner also looks for the unique healing pattern in nature that most closely matches the pattern of the whole person. This is the remedy that will resonate most strongly with the vital force or immune function of the person, evoking the healing response.

What are some common misconceptions of holistic medicine and health care? When we think of holistic care, we commonly think of a practitioner – a

homeopath, acupuncturist, or other holistic care provider. But each of us can also provide care for ourselves and our families. One of my goals is to teach the use of homeopathy to treat minor injuries, poison oak, insect bites, children’s ear infections, colds and flu, motion sickness, and other minor problems. This valuable basic knowledge allows us to care for ourselves and our families and avoid drugs with their possible side effects. Keep in mind that in case of serious or chronic illness or serious injury, it’s important to seek professional care.

Q:

A:

Are you buying hearing aids from a licensed Audiologist?

Laura Crookston is a Board Certified Audiologist and owner of Gold Country Hearing Center.

Licensed Audiologists have a minimum of a master’s level degree in Audiology; this means they have the education, training, and knowledge to best serve your hearing healthcare needs. A hearing aid dispenser is someone licensed to dispense hearing aids; however, they are not required to have any formal training. They must simply pass a state licensing examination. Who you buy your hearing aids from is actually more important than what hearing aids you buy.

Business Owner Name: Frank Bloksberg Years in Business: 2Telephone Number: (530) 273-2727Location: 142 E. McKnight Way, Grass ValleyType of Business: Aikido martial arts school

Services Offered: Aikido Instruction, self-defense, project based leadership training

What is Aikido and why has it become so popular in Nevada County and the rest of the world? Aikido is the martial art of peace. As an Aikido’Ka student, you learn

to resolve all disputes (physical or emotional) without becoming an attacker yourself. You move with an attack, blending your motions with the attacker. Your blending movements take the energy of the attack from the attacker, taking the fight out of the fighter. In this way, you work to inflict no harm. And your martial art is very effective: You can use Aikido to gently control an attacker through to devastatingly powerful responses.

Are there spiritual benefits to Aikido? Please explain. Aikido is the martial art of peace. Rather than try to harm people, we

work to protect people.

What are the physical benefits of Aikido? Aikido training is excellent for all-around physical fitness, flexibility,

balance, stress-reduction and relaxation. It’s also tremendous fun.

What are the benefits of Aikido vs. traditional aerobic exercise? Aikido is not about exercise. The first lesson at Aikido’Ka is respect –

self-respect, respect for family, respect for teachers, respect for everyone. From respect flows the other benefits of aikido — acting in our own enlightened best interests. We understand that traditional self-defense is important, but most people never get attacked. The number one killer of women in this country is heart disease — not attacks from strangers. Training in aikido helps us to defend ourselves in truly effective ways — again, by acting in our own enlightened best interests.

Why do people do Pilates and how does it help them? In our society while sitting in cars, easy chairs and diminished need to

use our bodies for our daily survival the core muscles have a tendency to be underused or strained. This leads to weakening or laxity in some muscle groups and tightening or shortening in others. This causes an imbalance, which in return causes joint compression and instability. To create greater support for the spine will allow for greater ease and efficiency of movement. This will reduce the need for straining and using effort with daily tasks and improved capacity for any sport or moving art.

Are there spiritual benefits of Pilates? Please explain. Yes, most defiantly. Pilates increases your mind body connection. In

order to perform Pilates correctly you must focus your mind while performing the activity. Also, use of breath while performing also allows one to focus deeply within.

What kind of people should do this exercise? Because Pilates is low impact workout, anyone can participate. Those

with joint pain and other muscle issues can do the movements to their own level of control. From senior citizens to growing children, all can benefit from Pilates.

What is the most common objective of people using your services? To become stronger not only physically, but mentally. Lengthening and

strengthening core muscles as well as overall fitness.

What is Pilates and why has it become so popular in Nevada County and the rest of the world? Pilates is a body conditioning and exercise system focused on flexibility

and strength for the total body. It is a series of controlled non- impact movements energizing your body and mind, performed on specifically designed exercise apparatus and floor exercises, supervised by extensively trained teachers. This body conditioning was developed by the legendary physical trainer, Joseph Pilates in the 1920s, and in the 1930s as a means of rehabilitating WWI veterans.

What are the benefits of Pilates vs. traditional aerobic exercise? Because Pilates is low impact and you can start where you are physically,

anyone can do it without worry of injury, unlike aerobics which can be high impact. It also emphasizes strengthening while stretching, which builds long lean muscles, not big and bulky ones. Training in proper percussive breathing and accessing deep abdominal core muscles is a big part of Pilates which aerobics does not do.

What is yoga and why has it become so popular in Nevada County and the rest of the world? The word yoga means “union” in Sanskrit, the language of ancient

India where yoga originated. Yoga is the union between mind, body, and spirit. What is commonly referred to as “yoga” in today’s world can more accurately be described by another Sanskrit word: “asana,” which refers to the practice of physical postures or poses. Yoga has become popular because the exercises and philosophy generate many health benefits. It can be done at any age and any level of fitness.

What kind of people should do this type of exercise? Yoga benefits everyone. It’s well documented scientifically that

a lack of exercise and stressful lives contribute significantly to health problems, both mental and physical. But if everyone did 90 minutes of yoga every day (or at least a couple times a week), everyone would be so much more physically and mentally healthy resulting in less stress on the health care system and more enjoyment in life, hopefully reducing the level of social conflict in our society.

What are the benefits of Yoga vs. traditional aerobic exercise? Because Bikram Yoga is done in a heated room, it elevates the heart

rate and provides the same benefits of traditional aerobic exercise to the cardiovascular system but without the stress that traditional aerobic exercise such as running, jogging, walking, or biking. In addition, with yoga, you lengthen your muscles where as with many other exercises, you shorten and tighten them. Longer muscles lead to increased flexibility and less injury.

Staying fit in 2009: What is the most common objective of peopleusing your services? The most common objective is to achieve balanced health – both

physical and mental, leading to a better quality of life.
