Stress and Adaptation to Change

April 20, 2021 by Lisa Townsend

The definition of aging is cellular stress and as we all know, our entire body is made of specialized cells. What does evolutionary biology have to say about adaptation and our health? A Mindset.com activist just posted this on Twitter today; “Chameleon’s adapt to their environment. They change colors, shape, and form to blend into their surroundings. Lions make their environment change to them. They stay true to who they are. The only question is. Which one are you?” Lions […]

Don’t Let an Orthopedic Surgeon Hustle You in His/Her Office

April 16, 2021 by Lisa Townsend

Within the last month I’ve heard three complaints about orthopedic surgeons from my patients. I talked to a new patient yesterday who had the assistant pull her into the office to set up a surgery appointment without even telling here that was their intention. She had a feeling it was tissue trouble and neck surgery was overkill. It may or may not be. I’ll find out next week when I get my hands on her and read the reports. Still, […]

More Patients Are Coming to See Me.

April 7, 2021 by Lisa Townsend

I’m so pleased to be of service and be here for my neighborhood. More people are seeing my sign and finding my website. I’m grateful. I continue to get a plethora of former orthopedic patients who’ve had botched surgery when all they had at the beginning were TIGHT MUSCLES or serious muscle injury from blue collar work or equestrian competition or care not taken seriously. I’ve dealt with more than my share of plates, rods, and screws in people’s backs, […]

Clear link between AstraZeneca vaccine and rare blood clots in brain, EMA official tells paper

April 6, 2021 by Lisa Townsend

This is lovely isn’t it? In addition there is heart inflammation and immune system crash as Eric Clampton experienced. Google it. Why did he do it? And a second one? FAMILY PRESSURE. Folks, trust your instincts and the Universe not your family. I’m sorry to say that but others don’t know what’s best for you. https://news.yahoo.com/clear-between-astrazeneca-vaccine-rare-115707510.html

Men’s Fears of Being Dominated and Controlled by Women | Psychology Today

April 4, 2021 by Lisa Townsend

My justification for sharing this is, the number one stressor wracking women who see me are their husbands or their man. Constant complaint. I’m single and I like men as long as they don’t live with me. A monogamous boyfriend would be great if only a man would DATE instead of insulting me by expecting a hook-up. No. A husband; no way. Women need to be in charge of their own money, health, and happiness. Men too. This parent-child marriage […]

Learning to SELF-SOOTHE and Care About How You Feel

March 24, 2021 by Lisa Townsend

Our bodies ABSORB all of our thoughts and feelings all the time. That’s why our bodies are in the specific shape they’re in. I’ve seen it my entire twenty two year career. I and some I know self-soothe by muscle strengthening, others run or cycle, some shop, eat, drink or smoke. There is no judgment. Just do something for yourself that is consistent and be truthful about the consequences. Do something because you want to not because you’re followimg someone. […]

Incredible Reiki Session

March 19, 2021 by Lisa Townsend

I’ve been a Reiki Master since 1999. I was attuned during my 3rd trimester while pregnant with my son so he was essentially attuned also. I’ve been doing Reiki for 23 years. (2023) I just got done with a powerful Reiki session. It proceeded as normal from first position over the face which is chakra 7 or spiritual seeking from the crown chakra, down to 3rd eye pineal gland mid-brain, spiritual sight, chakra 5, expression and creativity to heart chakra […]

Placebo vs. Psychedelic. A New study suggests the placebo effect can be as powerful as micro-dosing LSD.

March 15, 2021 by Lisa Townsend

Imperial College London’s Centre for Psychedelic Research has led the way in clinical trials. Director Robin Carhart-Harris has published over 100 papers on the effects of psychedelics on a variety of mental health issues. The center recently produced one of the first large-scale studies on microdosing, with a caveat—the psychedelics were self-supplied (to skirt legal issues) and the psychological results self-reported. For the study published in eLife, the team recruited 191 citizen cosmonauts to microdose either LSD or a placebo over the course […]
