If you think environmental toxins are reserved only for communities like Hinkley, Califo ia from the movie “Erin Borokovich,” think again.

Stress And Aging Presidents
Have you ever noticed how much older presidents look after their presidential term? This is a clear example of how stress affects our aging appearance. It is largely our environment and levels of stress, not our genes, that cause premature aging. Within minutes of a stressful event, our body releases stress hormones to prepare us for a “fight or flight” response, including slower digestion and heightened energy production. Short term, these physiological changes are ideal. However, long term stress inhibits cell growth by increasing oxidative stress.

Cold Laser Healing
Did you know you produce light? Biophotons are the faint light, that all cells emit, which direct the body’s biochemical processes. Cold laser therapy builds upon this intelligence by producing a light beam that emits its own biophotons to stimulate healing. When this laser light is absorbed by the body, cells respond by engaging their own healing processes: energy (ATP), nutrient, and oxygen permeability are restored to cells. This allows for deeper and faster healing of a variety of acute and chronic injuries and other painful and inflammatory conditions.
