Sometimes hitting middle age can bring about some unwanted changes in how you think and feel. A research study involving middle-aged women showed that self-reflexology decreased depression, perceived stress, systolic blood pressure, and helped strengthen their immune systems.

Many physiological and psychological changes take place during menopause. In a research study comparing reflexology to foot massage, there was no difference in the amount of benefit of either one in helping with the symptoms of menopause.

All About Aromatherapy

Aromatherapy may have origins in antiquity with the use of infused aromatic oils, made by macerating dried plant material in fatty oil, heating and then filtering. Many such oils are described by Dioscorides, along with beliefs of the time regarding their healing properties, in his De Materia Medica, written in the first century.Distilled essential oils have been employed as medicines since the invention of distillation in the eleventh century, when Avicenna isolated essential oils using steam distillation.

Aromatherapy is the treatment or prevention of disease by use of essential oils. Two basic mechanisms are offered to explain the purported effects. One is the influence of aroma on the brain, especially the limbic system through the olfactory system. The other is the direct pharmacological effects of the essential oils. While precise knowledge of the synergy between the body and aromatic oils is often claimed by aromatherapists, the efficacy of aromatherapy remains unproven. However, some preliminary clinical studies of aromatherapy in combination with other techniques show positive effects

breast firming

A Breast Firming Story

Though Shana Lacs Spa has been offering one of its newest wellness services this 2010--the Breast Firming, a lot of Ilonggo women curiously visited the spa center and tried this new service with positive expectations on how effective it is and self-rewarding. For almost half a year, Breast Firming gained a lot of clients and positive feedbacks making Shana Lacs as the only spa center in Iloilo that offered such unique and natural way to make women feel good about themselves. Anyway, here’s an in-depth story on how women can maintain their healthy breast based on scientific and natural approach...

Drooping of the breasts is quite a natural but unfortunate process that happens to all the women in this world. Women with really small breasts will not generally suffer from this issue. Sagging generally occurs since there is breast involution. There is no perfect age a woman is likely to suffer from breast sagging. Breasts do not contain muscles and bones and therefore, exercising may not help in breast firming up to the satisfactory level. Breasts are made up of ligaments and fatty tissues. If the woman has more fats in the breasts, they are more likely to droop or sag and they may require breast firming.

Gravitational force pulls the breasts down along with the surrounding structure while stretching the skin that ultimately end up in sagging breasts. Every case differs so this could not be the case for all. It all depends upon the elasticity of breasts' skin and of the ligaments, those are driven by genes and diet. Ageing is most important factor; women with large breasts generally require to lose weight and also breast firming.

There are many ways for breast firming. The woman having drooping or sagging breasts have many options to firm their breasts such as; surgery, natural breast firming pills, natural breast firming lotion (gel, cream, oil or even spray) and natural breast firming exercises. Exercises again divide into modern techniques and holistic exercises such as yoga. Let us look at some exercises for breast firming:

Take a light weight in each hand and while lying down on the floor, extend the arms out up to shoulder level on the floor having the palms upwards. Now, clutch the weights in such a way that they are to be parallel to the body. The next step is drawing both arms directly upwards together with maintaining the level above the body. This way, a woman has to keep the elbows a bit bent, so that the weighing dumbbells meet just over the breastbone. Now the step is bringing the weights out to the body sides at shoulder level, as if to draw a semicircle.

Breast firming is also possible using some natural breast firming products. The products come in many shapes and forms such as breast enhancing pills or capsules, breast firming sprays or gels, breast uplifting mask, oil or even creams. However, to use such products, one has to follow the instruction given on the product's pack. Also, many such manufacturers suggest that one has to continue the therapy for about three to four months in order to see good and satisfying results.

Many beauticians suggest that in order to have potential breast firming, one has to consume good and nourishing diet. Herbs cum foods such as asparagus maybe very helpful in firming uplifting and beautifying the breasts and hence they are advisable. Also, aromatherapy and alternative way like acupressure may help in breast firming. They also help in toning the breast and maintaining their beauty.
