The problems with drugs...

Are you or is anyone you know experiencing any of these following symptoms or conditions?
Confusion, dementia, falls, psychosis, insomnia, joint deterioration, heart attack, stroke, colitis, indigestion, headaches, uncontrolled bleeding, dizziness, fainting, vertigo, cardiac arrhythmias, heart failure, muscle weakness, sarcopenia, skin conditions, breathing difficulties, kidney failure, wheezing, coughing, chronic pain, vision problems or even sudden death?
What's scary about the above conditions is that your prescription drugs could be causing them. Medications your physician pretty freely gives out. These conditions are ALL possible side-effects of commonly prescribed drugs.
What infuriates me about these side-effects that aren't just side-effects but are actual conditions, is in the Western world of medicine, they'll be treated with other drugs that have More side-effects, multiplying your problems by 10 Fold!! For a lot of conditions the only treatment within the Western medical module is drugs. 
What's the solution? Get off your offending medications. Slow, careful, observant withdrawal under the care of your physicians, is a safe & effective way to start stepping to the most healthy you!! Drugs & surgery should always be last resort treatments. Know that most prescription drugs do not work for most people most of the time. 
It is possible to take care of your health naturally & safely which means feeling your best. Maybe feeling better than you've ever thought you could feel!! A life full of holistic approaches to your well-being, acupuncture, massage, yoga, meditation, diet & exercise will make you feel amazing!!!!

The Prostate

The prostate is a small, walnut sized gland that sits under the bladder in men. It surrounds the urethra from which we urinate through & produces semen, the white milky substance that sperm is carried in. Inflammation can occur & is common, in this gland. It's referred to as prostatitis. When the prostate is inflamed a guy can experience urinary problems (frequent or urgent need to urinate, burning while urinating, etc.) & pelvic or low back pain. These are some of the more commonly experienced symptoms. Acupuncture can successfully relieve the symptoms of prostatitis & help maintain overall health of your prostate. Prostatitis is an uncomfortable condition you don't need to suffer any longer!!
