Cholesterol! Circulation! Diabetes! Progressive Joint stiffness! Family genetic factors!
You name it!
Few diseases of developing age can be prevented.
But many ? so many indeed ? can be modified and risks so much reduced.
There are many lines to follow. Above all - the focus of this article - spinal integrity. The organs all get what we could call their ?electric energy supply? from the spinal nerves. ?Electric wires? coming out from between the vertebrae (and skull indeed) to optimise and invigorate all the viscera: heart, gall bladder, pancreas, ?liver and lights!?. Everything. Not to mention those circulatory pumps, the muscles.
Do you want to stay alive? Then keep your vital nerve supply in tune and functioning to the best level possible. This is the realm of the Osteopath. His job is to maintain spinal integrity, freeing and re-aligning those small but so-vital facet joints. Minimising the ?electrical shortings? which so often affect the out-going nerves. A regular, routine preventive three-monthly visit can make such an amazing difference. I know, I've been doing it for forty years.
You service your car? Of course. But do you service your spinal nerves? I wonder! Think on it!
I personally prefer osteopathy to chiropractic, although I am trained in both. In general osteopathy uses gentler, safer methods compared to chiropractic, which can be much more forceful. Indeed, I have two partially paralysed legs as a direct result of such over-enthusiastic chiropractic ?treatment?. Such that I use a walking stick to help.
A walking stick? Now, there's something ?
I am not an exercise freak. I positively hate running. I refuse to (try to) develop bulging muscles. Cycling can be even more dangerous than heart attacks (traffic!!). Keep fit routines? Well, perhaps, but not for me, thank you.
But that walking stick ?
As a fanatical martial artist since the age of fourteen, I have practised three hours every night for years. Non-stop, fully committed. I remember being in tears in the dojo (gym) when everyone else was going home and there was no one left to struggle with. I mean that, I really do.
Ah, that walking stick ?
Now in my seventies I get an hour's (and more) exercise every night when walking Tyson, my Staffordshire Bull Terrier. With my walking stick. Practising and exercising sutekki-shin-jutsu techniques ? walking stick self defence methods. In sets of ten vigorous stick actions at a time. Invigorating! Enjoyable! Motivating! But so highly practical!
Good for my heart. Good for my stamina. Good for my personal exercise satisfaction. But ? hopefully ? not good for a would-be mugger ?
SO good for my street survival.
The walking stick is a most effective ? and perfectly legal ? weapon for self defence in these troubled times when no one knows just who might be around that corner! Perhaps no one ? perhaps. But can you be sure?
I commend sutekki-shin-jutsu to you.
Magazine Life And Style
Well, we recently moved to the Algarve in Portugal for exactly this reason. With more sunshine than anywhere else in Europe, our dream was to create a year round Naturist guest house that would provide privacy and relaxation for Naturists looking for a quick getaway to the sun.
The first step was finding our property. Fortunately, by travelling just 2 or 3 kilometres inland from the tourist epicentres we were able to chose from a number of secluded villas and farm houses conducive to the Naturist life style. We finally settled on a beautiful property just outside Albufeira that was also close to the best Nudist beaches in the Algarve.
The property's biggest asset is its beautiful gardens, which because of the Algarve climate are in bloom all year round. These, combined with the fact that the location, although completely secluded, is close enough to many local ammenities such as the new Algarve Shopping centre in Guia, make it ideal for the purposes of the Naturist holiday maker: privacy and access.
After several weeks of legal procedure (buying property in the Algarve can be a drawn out process) we were finally able to call "Casa Amarela" our own and soon set about converting the residence into a guest house. Fortunately, the layout of the property meant that there was very little in the way of major renovations and within a short time we were able to open our doors to our first guests.
The Algarve has always been famous for its beaches and golf resorts but there are many other opportunities afforded by this region of Portugal and we believe that Naturism in the warmest of European destinations is an obvious opportunity to explore...if nothing else it makes sense doesn't it? ;)
