Give Lightforce Class IV Deep Tissue Laser Therapy A Try
Low-level laser irradiation can have a positive response for tissues that exhibit microvascular compromise and become anoxic secondary to metabolic injury with resulting microvascular inflammation, oxidative injury, and mitochondrial dysfunction. Lasers of low-intensity initiate analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and biostimulatory effects, resulting in an increase in local microcirculation and increased healing. Increasing microcirculation induces an essential function in the tissue repair process and in pain control. This process allows increases in oxygenation and nutritional supply to tissues to aid in healing.
For the month of March, One. is offering first laser sessions free to new clients. If you have a pain that has been nagging you and hasn't responded to traditional treatment, check out what a difference the Lightforce Class IV Deep Tissue laser can make.

Pelvic Floor Workshop with Gina Hahn on
March 19th at 10 am Here at One.

As we go into March, the season changes from winter (the kidney energy) into spring (the liver energy). During this time not only do we have more yang energy externally from the longer hours of sunlight, but internally the liver energy rises and the kidney energy can often become less grounded leading to dysfunctions such as high blood pressure, less patience, irritability, and all signs of liver imbalances or liver yang rising.
Spring and Liver are represented by the energetic color of green as it is the season of new growth when the birds start to sing, green grass grows again, the flowers begin to bloom and the beauty of another year begins.
Schedule an acupuncture session today to help balance the liver and kidney energy and maintain a healthy you. All new patients take $30 off their initial visit with Jeff Masenheimer.

A new retrospective study has found that after getting Covid you are more susceptible to serious heart disease or stroke up to a year after illness despite being previously healthy and having no prior co morbidities.
After recovering from the initial illness, some COVID-19 patients suffer serious complications such as heart attacks and strokes. A study has quantified the risks up to a year later.

Goji Berries
For a long time, Goji Berries were used in traditional medicine in China. They would add it to soups and herbal teas to ward off illness and infection and to naturally enhance the immune system. It was also used to slow signs of aging, help maintain eye health and strengthen your liver, kidney, and lungs. Now, we can see Goji berries made into supplements, superfood blends, extracts, and teas to help as a home remedy!
- Just 28 grams of dried Goji berries contain 501% of the RDI of Vitamin A and 15% of the RDI of Vitamin C as well as 4 grams of protein
- A study showed that drinking four ounces of Goji berry juice per day increases levels of immune cells and help overall feelings of well-being
- Research has shown that Goji berries may enhance eye health and protect against disorders like macular degeneration
