Now, many of you may not be aware that the little town of Spencerport where I have my office
has been changing a bit over the past couple years. In my building alone, there is massage therapy, counseling/mediation, Reiki, and a Naturopath. The next street over from me has meditation classes and hypnotherapy. We even have our very own pottery painting shop for you to get your art therapy fix. All this in the past 3-5 years. Now that's progress!

So let me tell you about my friend Liz. Liz Bentley is the Naturopath I spoke of. Chances are you have no idea what she does. I'll admit I had no clue when I saw her name go up on the window of her office. Turns out she is a very good person to know. What Liz does is something I think everyone can use. She offers a analysis of your body's use of vitamins and minerals. With the use of her trusty machine she can analyze your saliva and urine to see how your body is operating. Is your liver not working up to par? Are you getting enough water? Is you mineral intake making you feel sluggish? All this and more she can tell you. It's awesome!

Liz also offers a foot spa which I love. I get them twice a week now. Maybe you saw a quick health update on channel 10 news about a chiropractor who offers them in Victor. What the foot spa does is help detox the body of all the crud we accumulate that can slow our systems down. Using a special filter type device, the water is charged ionically. Not an electric charge where you would be electrocuted but changing the charges of the water molecules. This causes aids the detox process. You put your feet in a lovely tub of hot water with the filter, a little sea salt is added to the water and you are off! The process takes about 45 minutes beginning to end. You enjoy a nice foot soak and watch the water. Based upon the amount of waste your cells are putting out into your system, the water changes color. The dirtier the water the healthier your cells (and you) are.

My first foot spa started with clear water, which changed to yellow to deep yellow orange to brown to black. Brown generally is related to liver and kidney production, green to your gall bladder, white for your lymph system and particles that are heavy metals.
Why get a foot spa? Why not, I say! It helps your body get rid of all the pollutants we pick up day to day. You will feel so much better. I know it made me sleepy which was wonderful since I have pretty much been running the mental olympics in my brain for the past several months.

Call and set up an appointment for a consultation with Liz (that included the analysis I told you about) and get $10.00 off if you tell her Massage By Laura referred you. You'll be glad you did! Reach Liz at 349-3330.
