We have entered into Phase 3 and are starting to spend time in social settings with friends and family. We are in close proximity to more people than we have been in months enjoying outdoor dining, gatherings with friends, maybe even swimming at the pool. With all these new interactions it is important that we are keeping ourselves as healthy as possible. This includes keeping hydrated, eating nourishing foods, and getting ample sleep each night – all things we know we should be doing. However, you may be looking for even more ways to boost your immune system during this time and that’s where Ft Hunt Health and Wellness Center comes in. Since the last time we wrote about them, they have changed locations, invested in even more top-of-the-line products and equipment, and have continued to educate themselves on the best practices in natural healing methods.  The alternative health care providers at Ft Hunt Health and Wellness Center/Ft Hunt Massage and Spa are focused on services that boost our immune systems to keep us healthy and strong, so we are able to fight off any intruders. Two popular services that do just this are Red Light Therapy and the Estonian Medicinal Bath (aqua cocoon). In both treatments, near red (visible red) and far red (invisible red) light boost the immune system and reduce inflammation as well as boost metabolism and blood circulation. Red light therapy helps with blood count production as well as healing wounds and skin rejuvenation.  Consider adding on a Himalaya Salt to your medicinal bath to neutralize your pH level. A pH level below 7 is sub-optimal acidy providing the perfect environment for bacteria, mold, and viruses to grow. Choose essential oils for inhalation purposes and further health benefits like citrus blends and tea tree oils with great antiviral and antibacterial properties. Dr. Kim, the center’s acupuncturist, is welcoming new and returning clients at this time! I highly encourage you to check out their website and give them a call to discover all the treatments they have to offer and what will fit your needs best.
