You may have read of a therapy, called SCENAR therapy, on this blog in some of Lauren's posts. I thought I would post a bit about my experience with SCENAR, so you could understand a bit more about it.
SCENAR was developed in Russia over a 25 year period from the 1970's after a research company was commissioned to invent a therapy to keep the cosmonauts healthy in space. It was a combination of Ancient Chinese energetic therapy with modern bio feedback technology. It has been used in Australia for the last 6 or 7 years.
I was introduced to the therapy when I attended treatment for the Chronic Fatigue Syndrome I was suffering. After the first session I felt different. Brighter, less fuzzy in the head and I started to wake up in the morning feeling somewhat refreshed for the first time in many years.
After I'd had 5 sessions, Lauren (who was quite pregnant) started to kick me to get up to our 13month old instead of her (I was that good I could do this with no real problem). I was also sleeping in the multi layer therapy blanket (more about this in another post).
I was able to exert my body in exercise & be recharged after only a short rest. I could do a lot more in a day without getting sick the next day. All this after 5 sessions of therapy over only three weeks. All the other therapies I had tried had taken months if not years to make an effect. The improvements I have made with SCENAR have been permanent & I continue to improve.
It has made a HUGE improvement in my health.
I subsequently trained in SCENAR therapy & use it in my physiotherapy practice for the effective treatment of a very wide range of complaints. Many, many problems are resolved quicker & more fully than with conventional techniques.
Good websites for more info are SCENAR HEALTH USA & SCENAR HEALTH CANADA & SCENAR HEALTH AUSTRALIA.
SCENAR HEALTH Australia was where I went for treatment. SCENAR is also in other countries just not with SCENAR HEALTH, you could Google it.

Cancer Info Part 1
I received an e-mail this week from a friend with information about cancer in it that we have known for years now. But it was always considered "alternative weirdo" stuff.
The info was claimed to have comes out of John Hopkins University. So I thought oooh - it's gone main stream! However, the University denies this & says the e-mail is a hoax. See the following link for their response: (http://www.hoax-slayer.com/cancer-tips-john-hopkins.shtml)
They do admit though that it includes information that is "true" or partly "true". "True"in my experience with specialists generally means "clinically tested" not just anecdotal evidence.
It is information that is well worth passing on as it has helped a lot of people fight cancer & helped us fight CFS. Even though it might not be true yet!
I'll break it up into smaller blog size chunks.

Phew!
No crash, Craig's made it through the worst with a few timely day sleeps, extra supplements & a lot of SCENAR.
We have also made a pact to go to bed early & this has resulted in a few early morning exercise sessions. Brisk 10 minute walk, 7 minute run & 10minute walk home.
Perhaps it's the sunshine returning that has inspired him but it is nice to see that he doesn't seem to crash & burn anymore.
There is hope.

The Cold Shoulder Shower.
One crazy remedy we tried, that stuck, was making the last minute, of your hot shower, cold.
Fully cold.
Refreshing in summer. Breath stealing in winter!
But we found (& still find) it does invigorate. It wakes you up very quickly (and it makes you braver!).
We heard something about leg therapy - walking in hot, then cold, then hot, then cold baths would increase blood flow to the surface of the skin and then restrict it & this would kick start a healing process. We also read about some crazy Russians who swam every morning in the frozen lakes & how healthy (& old) they were.
The Bondi Icebergs would agree I'm sure.
