Burning aromatherapy candles scented with pure essential oils is a wonderful way to add fragrance to a room. Not only does an aromatherapy candle smell nice, it can have therapeutic effects on the body and mind. Essential oils are extracted from certain aromatic plants and are used by aromatherapists to promote emotional and physical well being. When a few drops of a particular plant essence is added to a candle, its powerful aroma molecules are diffused into the surrounding air as the wax melts. When inhaled, the fragrance can help soothe and revitalize.

Aromatherapy scented candles can be made with oils from various types of plants. Aromatherapy essential oils can be made from different parts of plants, including flowers, berries, leaves and bark. As well as having a unique natural perfume, they have many different healing qualities. For instance, lavender is well known for its relaxing properties. When added to a jar candle, it can be used to create a soothing and peaceful atmosphere. The rich aroma of sandalwood can help ease feelings of anxiety and stress. As well as being used individually, oils can be used in blends to create uniquely fragranced candles. For example, a seasonal Christmas blend could include mandarin, cinnamon, clove or nutmeg. Or a refreshing mix of oils could include peppermint, lemon, rosemary or bergamot to help stimulate the senses.

For maximum aromatherapy benefits, candles should be made from natural based ingredients that don’t release toxins as they burn. Aromatherapy soy candles made from soybean wax are a popular option, as these are considered better for the environment than petroleum based candles. It’s worth reading the labels when buying a candle to make sure it contains pure aromatherapy oil and no synthetic fragrances or dyes. Using scented candles in the home is a simple but effective way of influencing the mood of a room, to create a tranquil and harmonious environment. Products such as candles, oil burners or other types of aromatherapy diffusers can make inexpensive gifts and offer a natural alternative to chemical air fresheners.

Adding aromatherapy candles to the home is a quick and easy way to enhance the atmosphere in a room and create a peaceful space to unwind in at the end of a busy day.

As a board certified radiologist, Jennifer Keilp MD sees quite a few stress fractures. Stress fractures can occur from a traumatic event, such as a fall or an accident, but can also occur from over overuse.

What is a stress fracture?

A stress fracture is a common overuse injury often seen in athletes. Usually, a fracture, or broken bone, is caused by an acute event, such as a car crash, a fall or other trauma. When this happens, the bone experiences a very high force that causes the stress fracture. A stress fracture can also occur when the forces are much lower, but happen repetitively for a long period of time; these injuries are also known as “fatigue fractures.” Stress fractures are commonly seen in athletes who run and jump on hard surfaces, such as distance runners, basketball players, and ballet dancers.

A stress fracture can occur in any bone, but is commonly seen in the foot and shin bones. They rarely occur in the upper extremity because the weight of your body is not supported by your arms as it is in your legs. Recently, for a publication, Jennifer Keilp provided photographs of a T1-weighted sagittal magnetic resonance image from an ankle injury. On the photograph provided by Jennifer Keilpphotograph provided by Jennifer Keilp, a stress fracture is noted as a linear area of low signal intensity in the calcaneus.

The method know as 3d ultrasound is used in early pregnancy, it can provide 3d pictures of the unborn child. Most times the ultrasound pictures are rapidly captured and joined together to produce a 4d scan.

Three dimensional scanning works in the same way to the normal ultrasound scanning methods except that the ultrasound scanning waves can be sent from multiple directions. The ultrasound pulses are redirected back and captured and provide information to construct a 3 d picture in very much the same way as 3d pictures. 3d ultrasound was devised in the usa.

It’s important to understand that sonologists worldwide have always pictured 3d images of the body in their minds while doing their 2d scans. However, until recently it was difficult to do this kind of reconstruction on patient data acquired using ultasound scanning. The advent of 4d scans for the first time allowed us a view into the brain of a sonologist and so letting us see the images on the ultrasound machine.

4d ultrasound imaging should utilize ultrasound energy following the same limits as conventional 2d ultrasound to create the 3d images. There is no data to suggest any harm due to 3d ultasound scanning, its use in non-medical situations should be undertaken with an understanding of the risks that exist.

Who doesn’t feel better on a ‘good hair day’? Sometimes they
come right out of the blue - often just as soon as you make up
your mind to get a new cut or color because you can’t do
anything else with it! Why is it so hard to get your hair to do
what you want?

THE HISTORY OF HAIR

The mysteries of maintaining beautiful hair should have been
uncovered by now, but for many women finding a simple way to
keep their hair looking wonderful is as elusive as it was to
women centuries before.

The desire for beautiful hair is not new. Ancient Egyptians
shaved their heads and wore elaborate, heavy, braided wigs to
achieve perfection. European history also abounds with torturous
hair styles including the ornate, powdered styles wrapped around
frames and horsehair which attracted vermin. All in the name of
beauty.

Today, fashion still influences a woman’s hairstyle but that
doesn’t mean you have to subject your hair to needless damage.
Take advantage of the tips below on caring properly for your
hair.

WASHING AND CONDITIONING

Hair is not a living part of your body. However, your hair still
needs proper care for optimum health and beauty. One of the key
elements to having shiny, healthy hair is to allow the natural
oils in the scalp to lubricate it. The hair closest to the scalp
benefits from natural sebum oils the most while longer hair can
become dry and brittle from a lack of these oils.

Shampoo, no matter what exotic ingredients it’s made up of,
performs a simple job of removing excess oils, pollution and
styling product build up from the hair. All of your hair needs
gentle cleansing but it is the top two or three inches that is
most weighed down with natural oils and dulling hair products.
Concentrating the washing in that area will reduce the amount of
oils removed from longer areas of hair which can be over dried
from the stripping of oils and extended contact with shampoo.

Conditioning on the other hand should be used sparingly, if at
all, on the top inches of the hair while concentrated on the
ends. Conditioning is an important step to replace needed oils
and provide protection from styling agents such as blow dryers
and irons.

STYLING

Your hair will look its most beautiful when you choose a style
that requires the least amount of heat and product damage.
Protecting your hair with conditioners is key, but choosing a
style that suits the texture of your hair will eliminate the
need for more torturous styling tools.

Frizzy and dry hair can benefit from the application of silicone
based products. Bear in mind that a little goes a long way and
concentrate the product on the ends of your hair.

When blow drying keep the blow dryer at least six inches from
your hair to prevent excessive damage from the heat. Blow drying
in the direction of the shaft (down the length of hair) will
create a smoother appearance.

COLORING and PERMING

Anytime you use chemicals in your hair you should make sure your
hair is in a healthy condition before applying the treatment.
Overuse of these treatments can damage hair beyond repair and
affect the results of the products.

CUTTING YOUR HAIR

Your hair will look shinier and feel thicker when you remove
dried and split ends. Trimming the hair every 6 to 8 weeks will
keep it looking its best.

Taking simple steps to maintain healthy hair will put you on
track to more ‘good hair days’ than you ever thought possible!
