			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://scienceoflife.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/pain.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-274" title="pain" src="http://scienceoflife.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/pain.jpg" alt="" width="148" height="158" /></a>Pain can be emotionally and physically exhausting, and many people are searching for safe and effective solutions &#8211; yet there have been natural solutions for pain for thousands of years! <strong><em></em></strong></p>
<p><strong><em>Science of Life</em></strong> is now offering a holistic approach that includes herbal anti-inflammatories, ayurvedic massage therapies, diet and lifestyle recommendations, gentle exercise &#8211; and the latest technology, called Microcurrent Electrical Therapy (MET).<span id="more-273"></span></p>
<p>Microcurrent electrical therapy (MET) has been developed over 30 years in the US, and is approved as a medical treatment by the US Food and Drug Administration. It is also approved by New Zealand Medsafe. Practitioner reports and clinical studies have shown much higher success rates than most drug treatments &#8211; with none of the side effects.</p>
<p>MET is being used by many hospitals to manage chronic pain worldwide. MET is different from TENS machines used in our hospitals, in that TENS masks pain and is temporary &#8211; while MET helps the body to heal, and the results are cumulative.</p>
<p><a href="http://scienceoflife.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/pain-free.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-279" title="pain-free" src="http://scienceoflife.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/pain-free.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="177" /></a>MET uses the findings of researchers that the body has a constant electrical current (Becker RO and Nordenstrom BEW), while injured areas have altered currents. Passing a tiny current of a particular waveform through the injured (i.e. painful) tissue, triggers pain reduction and healing.</p>
<p>We can offer solutions for all kinds of pains, such as arthritis, myalgia, neuralgia, fibromyalgia, back pain, frozen shoulder, carpal tunnel syndrome, etc.</p>
<p>While we will not interfere with what your GP or specialist has prescribed for you, you may find that you can reduce drug doses in consultation with your medical practitioner. Ayurveda can offer herbal anti-inflammatories that have been found to be as efficacious as most drug treatments, and ayurvedic massage with herbal anti-inflammatory oils is also a wonderful pain reliever and healer.</p>
<p>A key factor in pain is stress, which amplifies pain&#8217;s intensity and interferes with the body&#8217;s healing and repair capabilities. At <em><strong>Science of Life</strong></em>, we can help you manage stress with a powerful range of therapies and tools.</p>
<p>We start with a full consultation including ayurvedic assessment; then we offer a comprehensive programme of synergistic treatments that suit you in every way. The benefits are holistic and profound.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The US Food and Drug administration has issued &#8220;letters of no objection&#8221; to suppliers of Stevia (<em>Stevia rebaudiana) </em>as a sugar substitute. Stevia is a natural plant product that has no calories and does not significantly raise blood sugar in diabetics.</p>
<p>The FDA had previously banned the product, and diabetes societies had warned against its use, saying that a study had found it caused infertility in rats after giving them huge doses. Stevia has been used in Japan and other countries for many years, with no known side effects.</p>
<p>This opens the way for those wanting to use safe non-sugar sweeteners because of health issues. There has been great concern about the side effects &#8211; including nerve disorders and brain tumours &#8211; of artificial sweeteners such as Aspartame.</p>
<p>Stevia products vary in quality, some of them having a bitter aftertaste. I have tried Wonder Foods Stevia Drops and have found it quite pleasant-tasting. You can find out more at our <a href="http://scienceoflife.co.nz/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=2&amp;products_id=2" target="_blank">online store.</a></p>

<p>To give your skin a good start, I am offering &#8211; for the first time &#8211; the following <strong>Skin Rejuvenation Treatment</strong> at the Milford Clinic:</p>
<ul>
