			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ear candling is an alternative therapy that dates back to 2500 BC. References of this therapy can be found in ancient cultures including the Egyptians, Mayans, Tibetans, Chinese, Indians, and many parts of the Orient. Initially, it was offered only to great warrior, religious leaders, or those at the peak of the social ladder. However today it is widely used in U.S. and many modern countries across the world. Many Americans, along with the health care that they obtain from their primary health care practitioner, prefer to include alternative medicine methods. One of these methods is Ear Candling which is now being chosen to tackle minor illnesses involving the sinuses, the respiratory system and the ears. This service is also offered by many beauty salons in New York. Ear Candling is thus a harmless, non-invasive natural soothing cleansing method.</p>
<p><span id="more-153"></span></p>
<p><strong>New York Ear Candling: How it Works</strong></p>
<p>In New York, ear candling involves the use of hollow candle known as the ear candle. The narrow end of the hollow candle is held gently on to the edge of the ear. The other end of the candle is then lit. The smoke is pulled down into the ear canal because of the spiral of the cone. The flame creates vacuum in the ear. The wax and other material are drawn out from the ear canal to the base of the candle because of the heat and the vacuum created. During the process of burning a lot of cracking and hissing sound is heard which is the sound of the wax being removed. Once the process is complete, the candle is cut open in order to check the amount of the debris in it which gives idea about the effectiveness of the procedure. Some of the residue is from the candle itself while some from the ear.</p>
<p><strong>New York Ear Candling: Benefits</strong></p>
<p>It has been claimed by the providers of ear candling in New York and other cities across the globe that the process has several vital health benefits. However, one of the significant benefits is its simulating and revitalizing effect on the central nervous system, especially the brain. It also helps to reduce stress and restore emotional balance. Given below are some of the benefits that the providers of the technique of ear candling:</p>
<ul>
<li>Helps remove yeasts, allergies or just built up wax.</li>
<li>Removal of excessive wax from the ear aids better hearing.</li>
<li>Helps in getting rid of a yeast allergy known as ‘cadidia’ which causes itching in the ear.</li>
<li>The growth of bacteria in the ear along with the ear wax leads to ‘swimmers ear’. This does not allow the water to clear from the ear. However ear candling provides relief from the ‘swimmers ear’.</li>
</ul>
<p>Mucus is often blown into the ear from the Eustachian tube. According to the providers of the technique of ear candling in New York and other cities, this treatment helps release the pressure from the ear and thus relieves pain.</p>
<p><strong>Contraindications of Ear Candling</strong></p>
<p>Although ear candling is the safest and most effective ear cleaning  process, the advocates of ear candling in New York and other major  cities  does not recommend it for those having:</p>
<ul>
<li>Perforation or cysts in the ear</li>
<li>Fitted grommets in the ear</li>
<li>Recently undergone an ear, nose or throat surgery</li>
</ul>
<p>It is always recommended to consult a reputed practitioner of ear  candling in New York or any other city where one locally reside, before  going in for the treatment.</p>
<p>In New York, <a href="http://www.fivestarcolonic.com/">ear candling</a> should only be done by experienced and skilled professionals. Choose a  holistic centre that offers a wide range of services apart from ear  candling and enhance your sense of well being.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Saloon body wraps were first started in United States in 1960s which provided immediate, efficient and visible inch loss to any given body part within an hour or two. Body wraps have been used for centuries. The reason behind high class Egyptian women being very beautiful in spite of the hot and sandy climate which is adverse to the skin was the use of body wraps in ancient Egypt. They were used for healing the body, comforting the spirits and titivating the skin. The improvised version of this treatment is being used in many beauty salons in New York.<em> </em>Body wrap is not any kind of dehydration procedure; it is the use of mineral or natural herbs that helps in detoxification of the body and shrinking the size of your cells.</p>
<p><span id="more-147"></span></p>
<p><strong>Types of Popular Body Wrap in New York</strong></p>
<p>There are many types of body wraps that are available in New York. Body wraps which are most popular are:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Herbal wrap </strong></li>
</ul>
<p>In New York, the body wrap that makes use of selected herbs known for their nourishing properties especially Aloe Vera is called herbal wrap. After being blended with oils, the herbs are steeped in very hot water. Cloth sheets are then drenched in the obtained solution and draped around the entire body. This procedure nourishes the skin by removing the dead skin.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Mud wrap </strong></li>
</ul>
<p>This <a href="http://www.fivestarcolonic.com"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">New York body wrap</span></span></a> makes use of a therapeutic mud. This is applied to the entire body and left for some times so that the nutrients in the mud are absorbed by the skin which is later the mud is removed with hot towels. Mud has anti-stress properties that help in easing water retention and cleansing up of the pores. Mud wraps are known for tightening up of the skin as they increase blood circulation and remove toxins from the skin .For maximum benefits, many beauty salons recommend an exfoliating shower before body wrap in New York.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Algae and Seaweed wrap</strong></li>
</ul>
<p>This treatment of body wrap in New York consists of application of seaweed or algae wrapped in a foil on the full body. Both these ingredients can be easily absorbed by the skin as they are rich in amino acids and vitamins. These two ingredients assist the body in releasing toxins through sweat and thus help in detoxification of the body. For enhanced results, clients are requested not to use soap when showering immediately after this treatment.</p>
<p>Body wrap is thus one of the most natural ways to moisturize and improve your skin. In New York, body wrap treatment is found in many spas that incorporate distinctive ingredients in to their body wrap components.</p>

</strong><br />
Here are the main services that a reputable Wellness Center in Brooklyn offers:</p>
<p><strong>Colonic hydrotherapy:</strong> Colonic hydrotherapy involves the gentle infusion of water into the colon through the rectum. Hydrotherapists also use light massage and several water intakes and outputs to remove the toxic waste. Colonic hydrotherapy not only helps remove toxins, but also rejuvenates the body and restores colon to its natural shape<br />
and function. It also restores the body&#8217;s pH balance, prevents the absorption of toxins, enhances immunity and strengthens natural colonic movements and contractions. After the infusion, the waste is discreetly drained out without any offensive odor, with due respect to the person. This therapy is particularly useful for people who are overweight or suffer from constipation, allergy, headaches, diarrhea or fatigue (as it may indicate unhealthy colon).</p>
<p><strong>Infrared sauna:</strong> A safe, powerful and inexpensive way of toxin removal, infrared sauna stimulates sweat glands for cleansing and detoxification. The heat warms up the tissue up to several inches, resulting in fat mobilization and increased metabolism. The sauna can also be used at home to remove the body&#8217;s stresses and strains. It also increases blood circulation, resulting in a strengthened cardiovascular system. It reduces blood pressure and aids in recovery and healing for the injured. Spending time in the infrared sauna during winters can also enhance the mood, as it offers warmth and comfort.</p>
<p><strong>Skin care:</strong> Skin care therapy at a wellness center in Brooklyn consists of treatments, such as organic facials, painless waxing and light therapy. With organic facials, users enjoy the vitality of organic fruit and herbs and the benefits of aromatherapy. Painless waxing also helps in safe, painless and quick hair removal. Light therapy helps treat circadian rhythm disorders by exposing one to specific light wavelengths.</p>
<p><strong>Ionic foot bath detox:</strong> It uses stainless steel and brass electrodes to balance, and increase bioenergy (referred to as chi in Chinese medicine). It not only enhances vitality, energy and stamina, it also detoxifies the body of pollution, radiation and other pollutants trapped in the skin, which clog the pores and block detoxification.</p>
<p><strong>Swedish massage therapy:</strong> A full body massage therapy, it relieves tension and stress from the muscles. It also improves circulation, and removes impurities from the body, resulting in a rejuvenated, refreshed you.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The importance of clean ears is not something that most of us put too much thought into on a daily basis. It’s kind of just a habit and a part of our everyday hygienic routine.</p>
<p><span id="more-100"></span></p>
<p>Most people tend to use Q-tips to keep their ears tidy, but a little known fact is that they actually worsen the buildup of ear wax. We&#8217;ve all heard it from our doctors at some point, &#8220;never stick Q-tips into your ears!&#8221; but did we ever listen?  After you take that swipe or two with those Q-tips, you assume that you&#8217;ve done your job; the inside of your ear is now &#8216;clean as a whistle&#8217; right? Wrong. The single, innocent cotton swab may actually cause PERMANENT damage to your ear drum. If you really think about it, each time you use a Q-tip you&#8217;re literally pushing it into your ear which means that you&#8217;re also pushing the ear wax deeper into the ear canal. This action may eventually rupture your ear drum and that, fellow readers, is quite a scary thought.</p>
<p>At Five Star Wellness Center, one of our services includes the ancient art of ear candling. It is a safe and effective alternative method for in-ear cleansing. It is a simple 30-45 minute procedure in which a hollow candle stick is inserted into the ear and a wick is lit at the opposite end. There is, of course, a non-flammable divider between your ear and the burning end of the candle. Once the procedure is completed, the candle will be taken out and you may marvel at all the things that have been held hostage within your ear. I&#8217;m sure many of you are now asking in bewilderment, &#8220;why would I want to put a candle into my head?&#8221; Well, there are quite a few benefits to this age-old practice and interestingly enough, most find this procedure to be very soothing and not nearly as scary as it sounds. So why not give it a try?</p>
<p>On a final note, here are some fascinating benefits of ear candling:</p>
<ul>
<li>Better hearing</li>
<li>Reliefs tension headaches and migraines</li>
<li>Absence of noises in the ears</li>
<li>Better lymphatic circulation</li>
<li>Loss of excess wax</li>
<li>Pressure regulation</li>
<li>Cleansing of the sinus cavities</li>
<li>Relief from vertigo and Meniere&#8217;s disease</li>
</ul>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today we are happy to introduce a new service that is offered at our Wellness Centers.</p>
<p>Dry Skin Brushing! Some might  think that it is a painful procedure. Guess what, Skin Brushing is not painful at all! On the other hand, it is powerful, very relaxing, soothing and one of the natural detoxifying techniques that will help you keep your skin looking cleaner, younger and healthier.</p>
<p><span id="more-90"></span></p>
<p>Dry Brushing is an old and very  productive method of skin detox.  It was used for centuries by Russians Dutch and Turks at their bath houses, to improve circulation, prevent skin drying and to restore skin balance.</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s start with some Dry Skin Brushing facts:</p>
<p>Skin is the largest and one of the well known eliminative organ of the entire body. It is responsible for one -third of the body&#8217;s detoxification process every day.   Every day an average person eliminates about a liter of waste acids through sweat glands. Things like body soaps, body creams, deodorants, perfumes, as well as, synthetic clothing may lead to improper skin balance. Therefore, all the above will clog pores, cause toxicity and  varieties of other skin problems.</p>
<p>If dead skin is not removed on the daily basis, pores get clogged up and skin becomes inactive, which leads to impurities within the body. Dry Skin Brushing helps remove layers of dead skin, opens pores, restores the elimination process and provides better absorption of nutrients. Dry Skin Brushing also stimulates other detoxification organs such as kidneys, colon, liver, lungs and lymphatic system. It does that by providing smooth and gentle internal massage.</p>
<p>There are many more other Dry Skin Brushing benefits:</p>
<ul>
<li>Helps remove cellulite and get rid of stretch marks.</li>
<li>Tightens both skin and muscles.</li>
<li>Stimulates circulation and hormone production.</li>
<li>Promotes lymphatic drainage as well as, digestion.</li>
<li>Strengthens immune system.</li>
<li>Prevents skin aging.</li>
</ul>
