Beat the Heat With Tumeric Thai Iced Tea

You can stay healthy and cool this summer by opting for this satisfying and healthy Turmeric Thai Iced Tea recipe It is from “Empowered…

I recently finished taking a Buteyko Breathing course from Dr. Julie Glass. She was an excellent teacher– easy to understand, well-prepared, and passionate about the subject matter. I was hesitant to believe that the class would help me, but I signed up because Dr. Glass is a doctor I trust.

Now three weeks after the class, I can say that it changed my life. I have asthma, and went from using my inhaler daily to using it once a week. I anticipate that the more I do the breathing, the less and less my asthma will even be an issue. I am excited to be getting my life back!

Dr. Glass made the techniques easy to learn, and offered great support to those of us in the class. As a healthcare provider, I will absolutely be sending my patients to take her class.

Buteyko Breathing Class Changed My Life
My health before coming to see Dr. Amanda was…
I was suffering from asthma on a daily basis. This made it difficult for me to keep up with my kids, exercise, etc… It was very frustrating to deal with.
When I saw Dr. Amanda she really took the time to listen and hear about my symptoms. She was patient with me and took the time to discuss treatment options. After 1 week on Amanda’s treatment plan I was feeling better then I have felt in years! I am still feeling great!
Thanks Dr. Amanda. She rocks!

Suffering from Asthma
Thank you so much….
Something is changing already, got on the scale this morning and was down three pounds. What is scary to me is my blood pressure is too high. 200/80 despite my Rx Lasix. So very glad also that we found you, I find you have more compassion then any other doctor I have ever met.
NEXT DAY: The clay has eased the pain on the back sore. My blood pressure was 139/80 which was MUCH better. Also the scale is down about four pounds yippee!

Blood pressure is too high
I’m one of those jigsaw puzzles. I don’t fit the “norm” for traditional treatments. Over the years I became sensitive to just about any drug, and the joke was that I didn’t have to take it, just smell it and I’d react. “Traditional” medicine didn’t serve me, only making my symptoms worse. Major migraines became the norm, with seizure activity twice a month. Chemical sensitivities, food allergies, motion, flashing lights, loud noises all would set me back for days. I stopped traveling, stopped going out, stopped visiting friends, and basically became a hermit.

A Tribute to Dr. Amanda
When I first came to Dr. Amanda…
I couldn’t sleep and I was always tired. My life was about a 5 on a scale from 1 to 10. I knew my body was telling me to get help. After becoming a patient of Dr. Amanda I feel wonderful all day long. I’m not tired like I used to be, I’m not moody and my skin has cleared up, I feel energized all the time. I’ve even began to take my two young children here. Thank you Dr. Amanda

I was always tired
