Check out the Natural Horizons website for all of our new video testimonials!  "They know you as the individual. You’re not the person that they’ve just checked off the box. It’s more than that; it’s deeper than that and better. I’m getting good treatment I trust and I feel comfortable. And if I could see somebody else have that same kind of treatment, comfort and care, I’d definitely recommend Natural Horizons." - Charlanne B., Women's Wellness Patient

This is the cranial sacral system and it has its own rate and rhythm that influences the body's many functions. This system consists of the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid that surrounds and protects the brain and the spinal cord.
When this system is functioning at its optimum it compliments the body's natural healing processes. Therefore, aiding in preventative health measures as it helps the body in its ability to bolster resistance to disease, and is effective for a wide range of problems associated with pain and dysfunction, including: Headaches (including Migraines), Chronic Neck and Back Pain, Motor-Coordination Impairments, Colic, Autism, Central Nervous System Disorders (Anxiety, Stress, COD, ADD, ADHD, etc), Traumatic Brain and Spinal Cord Disorders, Chronic Fatigue, Emotional Difficulties, Fibromyalgia and other Connective Tissue Disorders, Temporomandibular Joint Syndrome or Disorder (TMJ/TMD), PTSD, Post Surgical Scarring Issues.

ABC Detox Juice
The savory and sweet treats of the holiday season can take a toll on your energy levels and your digestion (along with adding on a few pounds). Juicing is a simple way to pack high levels of nutrients into your daily diet and give you a healthy boost of detoxifying antioxidants. You can always make extra juice and add fresh lemon so it will keep in the refrigerator for a few extra days. Enjoy!
Serves 2-3
Ingredients:
2 large apples
2 beets
3 large carrots
1 bunch kale (at least 6-7 leaves)
1-2 leaves from beet greens (optional)
1 clove garlic
1 chunk ginger (more or less to taste)
Put all ingredients through a juicer. It is helpful to put the garlic and kale in first to get more flavor from these ingredients. Pour into a glass and enjoy!
