How to reach your goals

ECP THERAPY? Yes, heart surgery is not your only option!

What is ECP ?

ECP therapy is a safe, non-invasive, outpatient treatment option for people suffering from ischemic heart diseases such as angina and with either systolic or diastolic heart failure. ECP® has helped hundreds of thousands of patients around the world. Clinical studies show over 75% of patients benefit from ECP Therapy with sustained improvement up to three years post-treatment. While an individual is undergoing ECP, pneumatic cuffs are applied on the legs and are connected to a computer that monitors the heart rate and rhythm. The cuffs are timed to inflate and deflate based on the individual’s electrocardiogram. The cuffs inflate at the beginning of diastole and deflate at the beginning of systole. Since it increases pressure in the aorta while the heart is relaxing (during diastole) ECP increases blood flow into the coronary arteries, which serves to mechanically open up semi-blocked coronary arteries

• Pulmonary disease 

Here’s the Million Dollar Question 

Is surgery my only option? 

Dr. John Kirklin, a heart surgeon at Mayo Clinic, USA, has this to say: 

“Surgery is always second best. If you can do something else, it’s better.” 

Here at Spectrum of Life (SOL) , you do have an option to do something else for your aching heart and circulatory system: the External Counter Pulsation (ECP) therapy. 

For starters, ECP is truly non- invasive — 100% no needles and pricking.

ECP Therapy + Clinical Hypnotherapy = Better quality of life
Stress management techniques could reduce deaths and disability from heart attacks according to BBC News. At Spectrum of Life (SOL) Proactive Healthcare Centre, our clinical hypnotherapy service + ECP therapy will help you improve the quality of your life. Free consultation is still available, come to SOL and talk with me (Mr.Koo) now.

Your biography becomes your biology

It is not pain that hurts us most. Emotional traumas play a very large role in creating chronic illnesses. I feel good to help my clients feel better, regain their health and fitness!

Our language is filled with expressions of how emotion affects the body: tension and stress gives me a knot in my stomach, overwhelming sadness makes me feel all choked up, a difficult person is a pain in the neck.

More seriously, a recent study showed that sudden emotional shock can cause heart attacks even in healthy people. Called “broken heart syndrome,” these heart attacks were related to the loss of a loved one, fear of an event or activity, or sudden accidents. Notably, most of the sufferers were women.

How does a fleeting feeling have lasting health effects? Research on this is still in its infancy, but there are at least four paths we already know about.

First is the general effect of stress, which triggers the adrenals to produce cortisol and adrenaline. Cortisol is very helpful in small doses (as part of the fight or flight response) but sustained high cortisol levels (the result of unremitting stress) have very destructive effects on the body, including weight gain, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, suppression of immune function and acceleration of aging. For more on cortisol, read our articles on adrenal fatigue.

Second is the effect of unresolved emotional issues on systemic inflammation. Medical research has recently implicated inflammation as a contributing factor in a host of diseases, including cancer, heart disease and Alzheimer’s. For more on systemic inflammation, read our informative articles.

Third is the effect of emotions on particular organs. Many alternative practitioners attribute illness in a specific organ to a specific cause. While this is controversial in Western medicine, it has been well documented in medical literature that “Type A” personalities have much higher rates of heart disease, and that women who suffered childhood sexual abuse have higher rates of dysmenorrhea and pelvic pain. The mechanism of action may be peptide chains formed as part of the biochemistry of emotion that bind to receptor sites in specific organs, a concept pioneered by the renowned biochemist Dr. Candace Pert. We believe many more links will be discovered as research in this area continues.

Fourth is the effect of emotions on behavior. The ACE Study revealed a cause and effect link between adverse childhood experience and negative health habits like drinking, smoking, overeating, and sexual promiscuity. The authors recognized these negative habits as self-medication for unresolved emotional pain. But over time the suppression of all that pain through these self-destructive habits has terrible consequences.

上述文章阐述了情绪压力如何影响生理疾病。
事实的确如此，情绪压力是许多流行病的导因。
心脏病，胃病，忧郁症等等都和情绪压力有很大的关系。
我所工作的保健中心能检测顾客的生理状况。
我发现许多拥有情绪问题的顾客，肠胃心脏等都有一些状况。
有者甚至因为情绪问题，导致生理出了许多严重情况。
然而当情绪压力得到舒缓和改善时，他们的气色和生理状况也真的跟着好转起来。
所以你说生理和心理两者有关联不？
