by John R. Cross FCSP Dr. Ac.

Published by John Cross Publications/Lotus Publishing

Illustrated by Donald Budge

Calling all Physical Therapists, Reflexologists, Osteopaths, Massage Therapists and all Body Workers who use reflex therapy in any form

Cover Reflected Energy Pathways

How many reflexology charts and posters do you have adorning your clinic walls? Yes they look great and represent a wonderful way to explain to your clients the various intricacies of the human body. Visual aids are priceless. They are also very expensive! Wouldn’t it be great to have all the charts you require in one easy to read book for you and your clients to enjoy?

Well now you can! This workbook is designed to help you to understand the many different reflected points and pathways that exist all over the body. Each of them can be likened as ‘holographic images’ of internal organs, muscles, joints, vertebral levels etc. Whenever any part of the body experiences pain, discomfort, trauma or any other form of energy imbalance, the many reflected areas (reflexes) also become tender. They may be used either in analysis or treatment mode. This unique landscape formatted publication represents the equivalent of 35 clinical charts and gives the reflected points and areas of the FOOT, HAND, FACE, SKULL, EYE, EAR, TEETH, PULSES, ABDOMEN, TORSO, SPINE as well as illustrations showing the CHAPMAN'S REFLEXES, NEURO-VASCULAR REFLEXES, REFLECTED CHAKRAS on the FOOT and HAND, MERIDIANS on the LEG, ARM, FRONT, BACK and FACE and details on how to energy balance through the LAW OF FIVE ELEMENTS.

The Backcare Clinic - 21st Century Backcare To Improve Patient Outcomes

Irene Phillips changed career from being a Training Manager at the London Stock Exchange following a neck problem and has been practising as an osteopath since 1996.  Having also worked for an American computer company prior to this, she loves technology to improve patient outcomes. She was fortunate to be the first osteopath in the world to use Powered Spinal Mobilization (Theraflex) in 1997 and has been included in the World Wide Who’s Who for her contribution to osteopathy using this state of the art technology.

Clinic Director: Irene Phillips BSc(Ost) B.Sc (Soc Psych)

Clinic Director: Irene Phillips BSc(Ost) B.Sc (Soc Psych)

Powered Spinal Mobilization is a non-invasive treatment which in approximately 3 sessions will make the spine more supple and re-aligned, thus reducing pain as long as there are no other systemic causes, e.g. kidney problems etc.  It is suitable for chronic mechanical low back and neck pain, scoliosis, prolapsed discs, sciatica and frozen shoulder. Four pistons run off of air, mobilizing two vertebrae in opposite directions; in other modes can stimulate the spinal nerves and relax the muscles. Irene has been featured in numerous health magazines, newspapers and television discussing the benefits of Theraflex treatment.

As an osteopath she also treats other joints such as the shoulders, knees, ankles, etc. and enhances her treatment by using various other modes of treatment including CLRT (Cranial Laser Reflex Technique), long wave ultrasound, PER Pulsed Energy Replenisher), PBK electrotherapy and dry needling. She was also the first person in the UK to use the SpinalMouse, a radiation free method of assessing the spine for posture, flexibility and core muscle strength.

Back pain can be caused by other health issues and if appropriate you would be referred back to your GP for further assessment.

BCNH is a small and exclusive college focused on offering top quality courses in Nutritional Therapy in central London. We offer a part-time BSc (Hons) programme in Nutritional Therapy, in partnership with the University of Greenwich, as well as Level 6 Diploma courses in Nutritional Therapy.  

BCNH - UK College of Nutrition & Health

We have a long-standing (9 years) and very productive relationship with the University, which has full quality control of our course content and delivery. We are happy to report that we have successfully completed the 3rd re-accreditation process with the University of Greenwich (re-accreditation is due every 3 years), who continue to be complimentary regarding our teaching and the feedback given to students:

“Feedback is comprehensive, both on content and academic skills, and direct the students as to how they could have earned more marks….

…. I commend the marking team on the quality and depth of marking and comments to support student progression.” (University of Greenwich Moderator)

As a college, we aim to provide all our students with the highest quality, evidence-based teaching and utilize a variety of technologies to ensure that both attendance and distance learners are provided with the best possible experience.  The following is a sample of student feedback received this academic year:

“BCNH has given me the chance to return to study 30 years after I started as an undergraduate.  I had been concerned that Nutritional Therapy would be pseudo-science, however BCNH have impressed me with the rigour of their evidence-based approach. The materials and support for a distant leaner are excellent and the course is both intellectually challenging and enjoyable.  I have a full time job which involves extensive international travel, so I am able to pick up my studies on trains, planes and in hotel rooms around the world.”

For BCNH students, Year 4 is dedicated to clinical practice. As students gain experience with real clients and see for themselves the difference nutritional therapy can make to an individual’s health, their clinical competencies and their enthusiasm continue to grow.

We are currently enrolling students for the new academic year starting in September 2014.

In addition to Nutritional Therapy courses, BCNH also offers an electronic version of a Health Programme Questionnaire (HPQ) to health practitioners to aid in client information gathering.  The electronic HPQ enables detailed information to be emailed directly to the practitioner prior to the consultation.  The comprehensive design of the electronic HPQ, organised in accordance with Functional Medicine principles, will also aid practitioners in making sound clinical judgements, identifying various biochemical imbalances, the need for further tests, treatment strategy, GP referral, etc.

Assessing the Rotator Cuff Muscles in Shoulder Pain

by Robert Donkers of Accredited Massage Courses

How often does a patient come to your clinic saying, “I have a rotator cuff injury”? Working with painful or injured rotator cuff muscles can be a daunting prospect. There are some 30 muscles involved with the shoulder joint. Here are a few other shoulder facts:

  • The shoulder is stabilized more by muscles (the rotator cuff) than by ligaments;
  • There are 17 muscles attached to the scapula alone. (If you want to count them, don’t forget the omohyoid);
  • The shoulder has direct muscle attachments along the spine from the occiput to the pelvis;
  • The only bony attachment between the shoulder complex and the axial skeleton is the sterno-clavicular joint.

Assessing the Rotator Cuff Muscles in Shoulder Pain

For a basically qualified Holistic Masseur, who may only have learnt a short shoulder sequence, it’s hard to know what to do. But a Sports Massage Therapist should have a much deeper knowledge of the structure and function of the shoulder joint. The first task is to differentiate the four individual muscles which make up the rotator cuff: infraspinatus, supraspinatus, subscapularis and teres minor. These four muscles are most important when it comes to stabilizing the shoulder and performing its actions. Unlike the hip, which is stabilised largely by ligaments, it’s these four muscles that hold the shoulder together. And because muscles are more prone to injury than ligaments, the shoulder is a more vulnerable joint.

Each rotator cuff muscle controls a particular movement of the shoulder joint which therapists need to evaluate. For example, is the pain or restriction evident when performing internal rotation (subscapularis), external rotation (teres minor and infraspinatus), and abduction (supraspinatus). To make your treatment more specific and effective, you have to identify which rotator cuff muscle is causing the problem, enabling you to resolve the shoulder problem more quickly. After observation and palpation we need to assess the active and passive movement of the joint. Then the real fun starts by performing specific muscles tests to isolate the culprit. Learning this skill is vital for the successful remedial/sports massage therapist.

Once you have found out which muscle or muscles are compromised you can apply your knowledge and techniques into practice using a variety of skills such myofascial release, trigger point therapy, neuromuscular technique, muscle energy technique, soft tissue release, proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation and other muscle energy techniques.

After treatment the therapist must not forget to re-test. This shows whether your treatment has had any effect - hopefully positive, but there’s always the chance that things may have got worse. Is there pain free movement? Has the range of movement increased? Follow up treatments need probably be suggested but you will see that your client will leave your clinic feeling confident in their therapist’s skills and knowledge.

The Perils of Underinsurance

We’ve all heard the stories - insurers who won’t pay out when you’ve had a claim; but have you ever considered that for buildings and contents claims it could be the individual who was responsible or that you could be equally at risk? In buildings and content claims the insurer will proportionately reduce the level of settlement if you don’t have sufficient cover in place. For those who operate under the mistaken belief that ‘OK, my goods are worth £20,000, but I’m unlikely to have a claim for any more than £10,000, I’ll just insure for that value as the premiums are a lot less’, they could find any payments significantly reduced due to underinsurance in the event of a claim.

Balens

Underinsurance is defined as “Inadequate insurance coverage by the holder of a policy.” Balens claims team have, over the last few years, seen an increase in the amount of claims that have been proportionally reduced due to underinsurance. Whilst insuring your contents and/or buildings, you need to tell the insurer the total value of the items you want to be insured; this is called the “sum insured”. This information is used to assess the risk that the insurers are taking on and therefore the level of premium you will need to pay. If you give a false account of the sum insured, you put yourself in danger of underinsurance in the event of a claim. Where your policy wording highlights an "average clause" in relation to claims and the sum insured is insufficient, only a proportion of your  claim could be paid.

The following example will hopefully give clarity: An individual insures their contents for the sum of £30,000, but find in a claim situation that they need to claim for £35,000. If the insurance loss adjuster assesses the value of the contents at the time when the incident occurred to have been £50,000 the value of the settlement would be reduced to only £20,900 when including a £100 excess. This is £14,100 less than the value of their losses! 

This is calculated as follows:

£35,000 (claim) x £30,000 (Sum insured) 
-----------------------------------------------                  =
£21,000 - £100 (excess) - £20,900 (proposed insured)

£50,000 (Value at Risk or assessment of the
actual contents value at the time of the claim)

It can be difficult to estimate the value of your contents or the cost of rebuilding a property, which is why a majority of insurers will offer package policies allowing you some room for manoeuvre. However business owners should be able to gain an idea of their contents cost from financial records. It is wise to be as accurate as possible and to ensure that the sums insured are updated should your contents costs increase, for example if you purchase new equipment, as it will be your responsibility to declare and regularly review your sums insured.  Hopefully this brief article has made you aware of the cause and effects of underinsurance, however should you have any question or are in any doubt with regards to your own level of cover, please do check with your Insurance Broker, they are there to help.

Primrose’s Kitchen Launches Delicious Raw Nut Butters!

Naturopathic Nutrition stresses the use of whole and organic foods as medicine - an integral concept of healing in many indigenous societies. Today, we see that a return to chemical-free foods, along with other dietary measures, is an effective answer to many health complaints and common conditions. 

The raw nut butters have been created for using in baking, adding to dressings or to be spread on toast.  Almonds are the nut of choice as they are alkalising in your body and combined with hemp or chia seeds make the perfect high protein snack rich in minerals such as magnesium and calcium. 

With a background in Naturopathic and Complementary health studies, Primrose uses knowledge of a balanced body to design natural and wholesome food.

Primrose, Founder of Primrose’s Kitchen, commented: “We have been toying with the idea of creating raw nut butters for a while as many of our customers have spoken to us about the use of nuts in their daily diets.  The raw nut butters are a simple and tasty way to ensure you are getting some key vitamins in your daily diet and all the benefits that raw nuts offer.” 

The Raw Nut Butters can be found in Planet Organic, Wholefoods, Independent retailers and now Selfridges.

Hardwired to Heaven: Download Your Divinity Through Your Heart and Create Your Deepest Desires 

by Joan Cerio BS (biology), MS (science education)

Published by Findhorn Press. 2014. Paperback. £9.99. ISBN 978-1-84409-463-9.

Your soul’s treasure chest is buried within the sacred coordinate in your heart. There you will find the riches of the Universe.”

What kind of life do you desire? What do you want to be, to achieve, to become?

Hardwired to Heaven

You already know that your thoughts create your reality. But what creates the thoughts that create that reality? Not your mind; not your brain; not your will. According to Hardwired to Heaven, it's your heart. They say heaven is found within. Most spiritual traditions consider the heart to be a sacred place of connection with heaven. Are we really connected to heaven through our hearts? Cerio calls a special place in your heart that connects you to heaven the sacred coordinate. She claims that Hardwired to Heaven unlocks not only the mysteries of the heart, but its magic as well so you can connect heaven's ‘USB cable’ to your heart and create its deepest desires.

Hardwired to Heaven is a blend of the science and spirituality of consciousness, creative energy, and the heart. It opens by explaining how the energy of these times is facilitating humanity’s awakening. The science behind how blood, water, light, the pineal gland, and the heart’s electromagnetic field aid in enlightened creation provide the basis for the metaphysical information. Included are seven simple, step-by-step instructions that make it possible for anyone to create from his or her heart. Three meditations are included: meditation for dissipating and balancing energy, meditation for enhancing energy, and the Sacred Coordinate meditation.

“Through a blending of science and mysticism Hardwired to Heaven by Joan Cerio takes us on a journey to new understandings of yourself, your connection to the divine, and ultimately to living as a co-creator. Joan helps us to see the interrelationship between our physical heart, its centre point, and that of the unified field of the Universe.”

David Bennett, Co-author of Voyage of Purpose

At last - 100% Organic Whey Protein Lands in Britain

Brighton based The Organic Protein Company is delighted to announce the launch of its certified organic whey protein powder. It's completely GMO free and contains no unnecessary additives such as artificial sweeteners and flavourings. There's no gluten either. “It's a far cry from the run-of-the-mill protein powders used by so many British health and fitness fans,” says founder Daniel Whitehead.

organic-whey-protein-front

The Organic Protein Company's whey protein comes from Jersey cows who graze freely on unpolluted organic grass pastures in Northern California, one of the organic movement's longest established strongholds in the USA and globally. “We’re making waves in a crowded market where artificial flavourings and sweeteners are often used and many dairy herds won’t ever see a blade of grass, let alone roam free in a field,” says Daniel. “Our whey comes from milk produced by outdoor-reared cows on certified organic farms, and we use no additives at all. It really couldn’t get better than that.

“Traceability is also important to us,” Daniel continues. “We know exactly where our product originates from. Every stage of the process is documented and completely traceable, from field to plate, and every batch is tested to ensure high levels of protein. And we are certified by the Organic Food Federation.”

The company’s offering makes it stand out from the crowd in other ways. It provides a 90 day money back guarantee, donates 25p from every pack sold to Compassion in World Farming - and has a tree planted for every pack.

The Organic Protein Company is expecting to steal a healthy chunk of the whey protein market, attracting health and fitness fans who care for the environment and are interested in promoting animal welfare as well as those who want the best quality product.

About Daniel Whitehead

Daniel Whitehead aged 29 studied horticulture at Merrist Wood College, Surrey, before working in horticulture and then deciding to sell specialist health and fitness foodstuffs. He researched organic whey protein and organic standards, and liaised closely with farmers and potential suppliers around the globe, before founding The Organic Protein Company and launching its first product. According to Daniel, “I was following a fitness regime and wanted an organic whey protein, but I noticed there wasn't one available in the UK. I decided to find out why. I spoke to farmers in the UK and overseas and learned that although some were interested in producing it, they were put off by the cost - £250,000+ for the technology alone.”

Daniel is keen to receive feedback on the product and customer service from customers.

Sodium Bicarbonate - Nature’s Unique First Aid Remedy

by Dr Mark Sircus Ac OMD DM(P)

This book is about the application of the least expensive, safest and perhaps most effective cancer medicine there is. Studies have already shown how manipulation of tumour pH with sodium bicarbonate enhances chemotherapy pointing to the appropriateness of using bicarbonate as a principle medicinal substance with the potential of curing people of their cancers.

Cover Sodium Bicarbonate

Sodium bicarbonate cancer treatment focuses on delivering natural chemotherapy in a way that effectively kills cancer cells, while dramatically reducing the brutal side effects and costs experienced with standard chemotherapy treatments. One pound of sodium bicarbonate costs only a few dollars at the supermarket. If you live in the States, you can get fifty pounds for fifty dollars of high-grade medicine that you can drink or put in your bathtub for the quickest, safest and certainly least expensive anticancer treatment available anywhere for any price.

For ten dollars or less one has a nothing-to-lose-everything-to-gain-cancer-treatment. Sodium bicarbonate is a world-class anti-fungicide, but that is but one of the reasons why baking soda is such an effective, safe and rapid-acting anti-tumour agent. It is such a good and necessary cancer medicine that oncologists have secretly been using it for decades along with chemotherapy, fooling themselves in the process because they think they are using it to protect their patients from the deadly chemo chemicals.

Emergency room and intensive care medicine would be severely handicapped if there was no sodium bicarbonate, and already very dangerous chemotherapy would be even more deadly without bicarbonate used as a buffer when the chemical chemo poisons are pumped in. If you want to see how fast a person can hit the floor during chemotherapy just forget to mix in the bicarbonate and get out your stopwatch!

Sodium bicarbonate is used prior to, during and after application of chemotherapy. Since the very beginning sodium bicarbonate has been used with the premier chemotherapy agent made from mustard gas. Mechlorethamine also known as chlormethine, mustine, nitrogen mustard and HN2, and sold under the brand name of Mustargen, was the prototype anticancer chemotherapeutic drug. Use of mechlorethamine gave birth to the field of anticancer chemotherapy. Without baking soda, orthodox oncology would never have been able to establish itself for all their patients would probably have died too quickly.

You will also be given fluids via IV and a drug called mesna with your cyclophosphamide to help prevent bladder irritation. Sodium bicarbonate will be given to you - usually as a drip - before and during your methotrexate treatment, to help protect your kidneys.

    Is Juicing Really Good For You?

    Juicing has become part of the cultural zeitgeist, but Nutritionist Ilona Wesley from MyDetoxDiet.co.uk says that the overall answer to the question Is juicing good for you isn’t clear cut. Downing the juice of fruit and vegetables essentially means consuming the water they hold as well as much of their vitamin and mineral goodness, but juicing also removes complex fibres and can send sugar levels sky high. Ilona advises that you eat your fruit and veg, you get your fibre fix and ensure you eat your protein. If you are serious about juicing, a cold press juicer will retain a huge proportion of the nutrients in your juice ingredients, by crushing fruit and vegetables gently rather than whizzing it all up using blades and heat.

    ANH International Alert EU Clamp Down Supplements

    Five petitions in the European Parliament, including one of ours, against the EU’s proposed clampdown on maximum levels of vitamins have been ungraciously booted out, with no right of reply allowed. The regulators need to understand that any blanket ban will simply force more products underground, directly increasing people’s chances of being exposed to risk by poorly made products, especially those bought from disreputable internet suppliers. Robert Verkerk, Founder and executive and scientific Director of ANH-Intl has travelled to Germany to discuss this issue with senior players in the German natural products industry, Doctors and Practitioners who use the products in order to keep people healthy.

    Sunlight Research Forum

    Dutch scientists have shown how UV radiation and vitamin D supplementation in mice affect colorectal cancer growth. As high vitamin D and ambient UV levels are known to be associated with lower colorectal cancer mortality, a group of scientists from the University of Leiden, Netherlands investigated in mouse experiments whether this could be a causal relationship. The tumour load was significantly reduced in both the vitamin D-supplemented and the UV-exposed group compared to the control group. Only UV exposure slowed down malignant progression.

    Cannabis Compound Could Slow Tumour Growth

    Scientist at the University of East Anglia have shown how the main psychoactive ingredient in cannabis could reduce tumour growth in cancer patients. Research recently published reveals the existence of previously unknown signalling platforms which are responsible for the drug’s success in shrinking tumours.

    Newborn Parents Pay High Price For Interrupted Sleep

    Most new parents report feeling more exhausted in the morning than when they went to bed the night before. Now, in the first study of its kind, Professor Avi Sadeh and a team of researchers from Tel Aviv University’s School of Psychological Sciences explained why interrupted sleep can be as physically detrimental as no sleep at all. In the study, published in the journal Sleep Medicine, Professor Sadeh and his colleagues establish a causal link between interrupted sleep patterns and compromised cognitive abilities, shortened attention spans and negative moods.

    Beware Sugar Substitutes

    With sugar in the news for fuelling the obesity crisis, ‘low-sugar’ products are being hyped as a ‘healthy option’  because they have fewer calories. In fact, artificial sugar substitutes all have health risks associated with them. For example, Aspartame’s number one clinically reported adverse reaction to Aspartame is headache. Artificial sugar substitutes have been used for decades in an ever growing number of foods ranging from diet fizzy drinks to yoghurt. The College of Natural Medicine (CNM) warns you not to be misled by the food industry marketing. Use added sugars in moderation only and opt for natural sugar substitutes such as Xylitol, Stevia or Honey. Study for a CNM diploma in Naturopathic Nutrition, Herbal Medicine, Acupuncture or Homeopathy. A Special Acupuncture Open Evening at the CNM London happens on Wednesday 13 August from 6.30pm-8.30pm.

    Breathalyzer Test May Detect Deadliest Cancer

    Lung cancer causes more deaths in the USA than the next three most common cancers combined. The reason for the striking mortality rate is simple: poor detection. Now, a new device developed by a team of Israeli, American and British Cancer Researchers may turn the tide by both accurately detecting lung cancer and identifying its stage of progression.
