PAIN RELIEF - INSIDE AND OUT
Suffering rheumatic aches and pains? Pulled a muscle on the golf course? Tripped over and bruised your knee?

Pain management is a priority in this modern hectic world. How often do you wish for a swift, effective, natural pain-relieving remedy to replace the chemicals in the bathroom cabinet with their unpleasant side effects?
Now there are two licensed products to deal effectively with a wide range of the discomfort which affects almost 80% of the population.
Atrosan Devil's Claw tablets are licensed for the relief of backache, rheumatic or muscular pain and general aches and pains in the muscles and joints.
Localised aches and pains can be successfully treated externally by Atrogel Arnica Gel.
Atrogel gives immediate, external pain relief, and Atrosan works internally to deliver an anti-inflammatory effect to the whole body. You can use Atrosan long term as its anti-inflammatory action doesn't block any of the body's natural processes, so there is no danger of harming the stomach lining. During October we will be offering 20% off Atrogel and Atrosan see http://www.naturalhealthwelwyn.co.uk/store/search/brand/A-Vogel/

FAT IS GOOD FOR YOU, HONESTLY!

We recommend flax seed which produces 57% more Omega-3 fatty acids than fish oil. See link at bottom of page for more info and http://www.naturalhealthwelwyn.co.uk/store/search/brand/Viridian/

CHERRY AID TO HEALTH
Cherry juice was hailed as the new superfood in the press last week (Daily Mirror, Daily Record and Daily Mail 27th September 2008) - with one small glass of US-grown Montmorency cherries equal to 5 portions of fruit and veg and was found to have a very high level of antioxidants. These protect against harmful substances in the body.
Around 5000 people in the UK already take the juice for gout. It is also used by arthritis sufferers to reduce joint inflammation.
A concentrated version is available under the brand name CherryActive is available from us in store or at http://www.naturalhealthwelwyn.co.uk/store/search/brand/Cherry-Active/

Lots of people feel they suffer with depression and indeed this coupled with anxiety is the most common mental health issue today, with 9% of British people fulfilling the diagnosis criteria.

ARNICA
The truly great healer of any physical trauma or pain.
Many people think Arnica is only useful as a cream for bruises. It is, however much more effective if taken internally in tablet form. Arnica has a huge range of uses in injuries, falls, accidents, whiplash, concussion, sprains and strains. It is a 'must' after all operations since it will greatly accelerate healing. Arnica is also an invaluable companion during and after childbirth. Sometimes it can also alleviate the aches and pains of flu.
Use the thirtieth potency and repeat the dose once or several times a day. During intense pain you can repeat the dose every hour for a while. To contact Aila Baron, our homeopath, please call 0208 888 6536 or see http://www.naturaltherapycentre.co.uk/therapist.asp?therapistID=3

When Margaret first visited me she was sick and tired – literally! She was constantly catching colds, bugs and infections, had eczema on her hands and feet and felt permanently run down and exhausted with bloating and constipation. In just one month Margaret saw a dramatic improvement in her health.

This is what Margaret had to say……

‘Everything seems to have calmed down and there is no hint of any chest infection and we are in mid-November! My hands have cleared up completely and my feet have too ‘ Thank you so much – it has been amazing’ Contact Paula on 07974138334 or see http://www.naturaltherapycentre.co.uk/success.asp
