Many people wrongly believe that strokes afflict only the elderly, but the fact is they can occur at any age. A stroke also called a "Brain Attack", results when blood flow to your brain is disrupted. The disruption may be the cause of a blood clot or rupture of a blood vessel (a hemorrhage). One of the most important findings in recent years has been that strokes usually do not strike without giving some warning. Symptoms of stroke can last a few seconds or minutes and may occur several times a day. About 80% of the deaths from stroke occur in people sixty-five years old or above. Four out of five persons survive their first attack of stroke. If you experience one or more of the following - or notice them in another person - get help immediately. Be aware!

Do you feel some aches and "ouch" lately? Book a massage! According to studies, massage can be as powerful as morphine for those in pain. Massage is perhaps one of the oldest healing traditions. Many ancient peoples – including the Ancient Greeks, Egyptians, Chinese, and Indians – were convinced of the therapeutic properties of massage and used it to treat a variety of ailments. A massage stimulates your nervous system; wakes up your muscles, organs, and glands; moves blood and lymph fluid, and gets multitudes of cells to produce and release chemicals and hormones. Your body needs a massage to renew itself and reverse the effects of stress.
