COPPER BALL BLISS

Using different diameters of solid copper spheres, this highly beneficial metal is utilized in a massage to quickly and effectively roll out the build up of positive ions in the nerve channels.  Incredibly small electrical currents (amounting to a Pico ampere - 10-12A) can flow through a single ion channel.  Copper introduces negative ions into these channels and the recombines them with positive free radicals.  The free radicals are thus neutralized and easily excreted from the cell into either sweat or into the blood stream.  Copper is an essential nutrient:

• Copper deficiency is more common than copper toxicity.
• Copper is vital for collagen formation, which means that copper is essential for bone formation and repair, skin formation and repair, and growth/maintenance of many other tissues incorporating collagen.
• Copper is crucial for nervous system development and is involved in the synthesis of neurotransmitters.
• Copper is involved in maintaining the balance of other metals in the body, such as zinc and molybdenum.
• Copper is necessary for maintaining the elasticity of blood vessels.
• Copper is important for proper functioning of the immune system
• In addition to the activities listed above, copper participates in many other enzymatic chemical reactions in the body (e.g., activation of melanin, absorption of iron, free radical neutralization).
• "Copper compounds are more effective and less toxic than drugs being used to treat arthritis." Dr. John Sorenson, Univ. of Arkansas.

AYURVEDIC TREATMENT - SCALP MASSAGE!!!

Ayurvedic doctors recommend oil massages as the best way to nourish the scalp and hair topically. Not only does the massage work wonders for your hair, but it also relaxes the mind and nervous system.  The scalp will absorb up to 3/4 c  as it is also feeding the brain these healthy oils and is the most efficient way for the body to utilize the oils.  Here are a few of the benefits:

• It lubricates and conditions the scalp, helps prevent flakes and dry scalp without the use of harsh chemical shampoos.
• It helps enhance blood circulation in the head and neck area. When the scalp is “tight” from stress, circulation and hair growth are impeded.
• It helps relax the scalp and increase pliability.
• It helps strengthen the roots of the hair and nourishes the hair-shafts, promoting new hair growth and strengthening current hair.
• It helps soften and condition the hair, making it more manageable & spreads the natural oils of the hair, increasing hair luster and vibrancy.
• It is replenishing and rejuvenating for dry, damaged hair, and helps prevent excessive brittleness and split-ends.
• A Pitta-pacifying massage also helps promote emotional balance. The massage helps relax the muscles in the neck area.
• The hair and scalp massage can help promote sound sleep at night.

*Please bring a cap or scarf with you so that you may continue to let the oil soak into the scalp preferably for up to 24 hours.
