Spring is just around the corner, which for many of us serves as nature's reminder to lace up those running shoes and hit the trails. For all runners, regardless of experience or fitness level, it's important to incorporate a post-exercise stretching routine. Stretching after you run, while your muscles are warm, helps to prevent many injuries associated with muscle tension and tightness.

 I just came across a great article on the YinOva facebook page called "Acupuncture: Sticking it to injuries" and I wanted to share a few words about it.  The author is an MD who explains why he stopped prescribing anti-inflammatories and now recommends treating injuries with acupuncture instead.

fertility, men's health

 

The role of men’s health and sperm quality has become increasingly scrutinized in the arena of natural and artificial fertility. It definitely makes sense when you understand conception to be the union of egg and sperm but somehow over the past half-century we have agonized over women’s age, ovarian reserve, egg quality, while the men’s health has had little consideration. We know now that the healthier the couple can become the better their chances of conception.

Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common disorders in women of reproductive age.

Symptoms can include obesity, acne, male-pattern hair growth on the body, and male-pattern hairloss on the head. And yet, despite its common occurrence, how it begins is still somewhat poorly understood. With more and more research being performed, it has become clear that PCOS can no longer be viewed as a solely gynaecological disorder, but rather a metabolic one.
