Surfers Healing Surf Camp for Autism a Success – Natural Therapies Benefit Autistic Children

Surfers Healing Surf Camp for Autism a Success – Natural Therapies Benefit Autistic Children










Woonsocket, RI (PRWEB) September 27, 2013

Autism is currently the fastest growing developmental disability, with a growth rate of 1,148 percent, according to the Autism Society.

It is a complex condition for which there is known cause or cure. “The demands of living with a person with autism are great, and families frequently experience high levels of stress,” the organization shares.

But for 180 autistic children and their families, the Surfers Healing RI surf camp on September 14 was a day to escape their daily struggles and join together as a community. Participants were paired with professional surfers from across the country as they took to the waters of Narragansett Beach and learned to surf.

Surfing has been a deeply therapeutic and liberating activity for Surfers Healing Founders Izzy and Danielle Paskowitz’s autistic son, Isaiah. In 2000, they began hosting day camps across the country in the hopes that other autistic children would benefit from the activity. Today, as Yahoo News reports, “Surfers Healing gives 3,000 kids a year in 22 camps across the country the opportunity to feel the same calm and joy Isaiah felt.”

Allison Smith’s twin boys Brennan and Brody felt just that at the RI camp. She shares, “As a parent of first-time surfers, I completely underestimated what this day would mean to our family. Watching my sweet little boys who struggle every single day SURF was the most powerful thing that I have ever experienced as their mom. The moment I handed Brennan and Brody over to the volunteers, their faces lit up with joy. When they hit the water with their new surfer friends, their happiness radiated.”

First-time participant Quin Abramek also enjoyed the surf camp experience. He kept saying he wanted a “big wave,” his mother, Mary-Ellen shares. “There were no judgements, it was all incredibly heartwarming. Quin had an amazing ride and we had an amazing day as a family! We can’t wait for next year!”

And the future looks bright for the RI camp, which began with 60 autistic children in 2009. It has since tripled in size, with a growing waiting list. All surf camp expenses are fully covered by volunteer fundraising efforts. This makes the experience possible for many families.

This year, Aidance Skincare was proud to sponsor the Surfers Healing day camp and introduce local autistic children to the natural therapy of surfing. Aidance believes strongly in the healing power of nature. The company’s unique topical remedies blend natural and organic ingredients to treat a range of skin conditions.

Local families are already looking forward to next year’s event, where they can count on encouragement, adventure and lasting memories.

“We had an amazing day in the most typical sense: fun without stress or drama – just plain laughing, running, getting covered in sand and salt water, which is what makes it even more wonderful,” said Sharon Schubert. Her 15-year-old autistic son, Joey participated for a fifth year.

Online USA Doctors/Virtual Doctors Creates Comprehensive Female Health Plan That Prevents Premature Death in Postmenopausal Women

Online USA Doctors/Virtual Doctors Creates Comprehensive Female Health Plan That Prevents Premature Death in Postmenopausal Women











Online USA Doctors


Ventura, CA (PRWEB) September 20, 2013

Virtual doctors present timely and efficient health care alternative to postmenopausal women struggling with diabetes.

A recent analysis of the Women’s Health Initiative found a correlation between diabetes and premature death in postmenopausal women. Diabetes is a serious disease which is preventable and/or curable with proper medical care. OnlineUSADoctors.com provides a convenient and cost-effective alternative to traditional medical care for diabetes. The medical team at Online USA Doctors gathers a comprehensive health history of each woman requesting a doctor consultation. She is asked to completed a comprehensive, online health questionnaire created by the medical team at Online USA Doctors. The My Online USA Doctors Health Quiz compares her results with the latest medical journals on diabetes and menopause and prepares an individualized health management plan to reverse. Nationwide laboratory testing is also offered.

The analysis, published online on September 17 by the American Journal of Epidemiology, found that diabetes increases the risk of all-cause, cardiovascular and cancer death in postmenopausal women by 2 to 3 times, regardless of ethnicity. Complications from diabetes, such as hypertension, high cholesterol, and obesity, often lead to conditions like cardiovascular disease and cancer, but are preventable with routine medical care.

However, modern-day consumers are increasingly pressed by work, family, and financial commitments. These commitments make it difficult to commit to constant doctor’s appointments and medical assessments. Managing a chronic disease like diabetes requires slight monitoring, occasional lab tests, and significant lifestyle changes. These routine medical tasks often provide the support consumers need to manage their illnesses and, with proper lifestyle and nutritional counseling, eliminate them altogether.

Virtual doctors provide a solution to this problem by offering personalized medical treatment by board-certified M.D.’s for a fraction of the cost of in-person medical treatment. One of the leaders in the industry, OnlineUSADoctors.com offers comprehensive health care coverage, including proprietary alternative health supplements, emergency services, unlimited access to health care professionals via e-mail, and exclusive diagnostic tools. By providing these services, OnlineUSADoctors.com presents a solution that saves consumers the considerable time normally needed to undergo medical care and the significant sums of money that routine medical health insurance requires.

Through video or phone consultations, physicians diagnose illnesses and have the freedom to order laboratory tests, prescribe medication, or make a referral to a local physician for follow-up care when necessary. Medical doctors use tools such as the My OnlineUSADoctors Health Quiz, a cutting-edge diagnostic tool that often identifies underlying medical conditions which were missed by previous clinicians. Consumers are also entitled to unlimited e-mail access to medical doctors to answer questions and get lifestyle and medical counseling.

Through offering such comprehensive medical health insurance services, all provided by board-certified medical doctors, the annual cost of health care coverage for most consumers will be cut by an estimated minimum of ,000 per person. In addition, the flexibility of being able to schedule a consultation at a time of the consumer’s choosing adds significant value to the consumer’s bottom line. Considering the circumstances of modern-day life, virtual doctors are best positioned to offer the kind of support that postmenopausal women need to manage their diabetes.

Yourwellness Magazine Explains Health Benefits of Herbal Tea











Yourwellness, the gateway to living well

London, UK (PRWEB UK) 24 September 2013

Herb expert Jekka McVicar has been hired by West Sussex grower VHB to help the company in new product development and act as an ambassador to the public for its fresh herbs, Horticulture Week reported on the 10th of September 2013. According to their article “Jekka McVicar to be ‘ambassador’ for fresh herb grower,“ McVicar has already developed a guide to using fresh herbs which VHB (the UK’s largest grower of and supplier of fresh herbs to retailers) is using in its consumer marketing. McVicar commented, “I want people to feel confident and inspired to use fresh herbs at home as part of their everyday cooking – they’re not just for restaurant meals or special occasions.“ (http://www.hortweek.com/Edibles/article/1211340/Jekka-McVicar-ambassador-fresh-herb-grower/)

Yourwellness Magazine took a leaf out of McVicar’s book and reported on the health benefits of herbal tea. Yourwellness Magazine clarified, “Herbal tea is an infusion of plants, flowers or roots which are steeped in hot water to extract the health properties. A common drink found in every major culture across the globe, tea is seen as a health food for its antioxidant-rich properties and restorative qualities. Using herbal extracts for tea is an easy way of gaining the maximum benefits from a variety of plants or flowers.“ (http://www.yourwellness.com/2012/12/the-healing-benefits-of-herbal-tea/#sthash.LhLzaGYj.dpuf)

Yourwellness Magazine explained that herbal teas can be used for a variety of uses, from helping people to relax or sleep better to boosting vitality and providing vitamins. Aniseed tea, for example, can help soothe a sore throat and chamomile can aid sleep. Yourwellness Magazine noted that beginners should research the various benefits of each type of herbal tea, as some are more healthful than others. Yourwellness Magazine added that readers should consult a medical health professional before trying any new tea, as it may not be safe for pregnant women or people on certain medications.
