WHY A ZYTO SCAN IS LIKE GOOGLE FOR YOUR BODY

WHY GUESS....WHEN YOU CAN KNOW
WHY A ZYTO SCAN
IS LIKE GOOGLE FOR YOUR BODY
When we want an answer to a question or specific information what do we do? We “Google” it! It’s such a popular and trusted search engine that we’ve even turned the noun (Google) into a verb.
So how is our ZYTO BALANCE technology similar to Google’s? Well, in terms of their search engine, you might say that the only major difference is scope. With Google, you can find information about anything and everything from a number of different sources. But with ZYTO, you discover a wealth of information directly from YOUR body.
Your body’s search engine
While Google scans through trillions of web pages during an internet search, similarly ZYTO scans through the body for reactions to a specific group of digital signatures that may be balancers or stressors to the body. While each “search term” is introduced to the body, ZYTO’s algorithm analyzes the body’s galvanic skin response for fluctuations then determines the coherence to each digital signature.
After a scan, the ZYTO BALANCE creates a personalized report which prioritizes your responses according to their relevance. The first part of the ZYTO report is set up similarly to a search engine results page with the most coherent items listed at the top, and from there you can dive deeper to discover more information. And the great part is your results will always be an accurate picture of the body’s response in real time. You’ll not only have the ability to know what immediate adjustments you should make…but you can also track your progress!

Your ZYTO BALANCE report
After a ZYTO BALANCE scan, you are able to easily see which items your body responded to most significantly, and which areas need more work and/or repair. But it doesn’t leave you guessing, along with “red flagging” these areas, the ZYTO takes it a step further by testing and matching which nutritional products and other wellness items you can use to help achieve your perfect health and balance.

The Diva Steam, also known as the V-Steam and Yoni Steam, is a remedy that is becoming known today as the forgotten ancient wisdom for women's health/healing and is being fervently revived by women today.
An ancient remedy that had been used for over a millennia before us, the Diva Steam has been known to maintain the health of the uterus, treating everything from painful menses, endometriosis, low libido, UTI's, to infertility. Though this simple process may sound like a miracle remedy, the Diva Steam is an easy and inexpensive treatment for any woman to use on a regular basis within the comfort of HC Wellness Center or at home.

How does the Diva Steam work?
A Diva Steam is done much like a facial, except that in this case, steam rises opening the pores of the skin and the beneficial compounds in the herbs are absorbed through the open pores of the pelvic floor. These tissues are exceptionally porous and absorbent, and the warmth of the steam helps to soften and open them. The herbs medicinal properties, including their oils, are released (due to the special steeping process) and carried to the surface of your skin, and inside , where they are absorbed into the bloodstream and into to the uterus. The herbal steam increases circulation, thins mucus, and cleanses the entire reproductive system, allowing it to shed unnecessary membranes and build-up. The results are varied, and amazing.


Throughout history, many women have found Steams to have the following effects:
* Significantly reduce pain, bloating and exhaustion associated with menstruation.
* Decrease menstrual flow.
* Regulate irregular or absent menstrual cycles.
* Increase fertility.
* Speed healing and tone the reproductive system after birth.
* Treat uterine fibroids, ovarian cysts, uterine weakness, uterine prolapse and endometriosis.
* Assist with the repair of a vaginal tear, episiotomy or C-section scar.
* Assist with the healing of hemorrhoids.
* Treat chronic infections (UTI's, Vaginal, Yeast, etc) and works to maintain healthy pH balance.
* Relieve symptoms of menopause.
* Detoxify the womb and remove toxins from the body.


We recommend that you DO NOT steam if any of the following apply to you:
* You are pregnant. 
* You have an IUD or a coil (you will be asked to sign a waiver if you wish to steam). 
* During Menstruation. 
* Piercings will need to be removed to avoid burns.
* Steaming should not be done if you have any open cuts/wounds/stitches or active herpes breakout.
* Steaming should not be done when the body is fighting an illness such as the flu or any other fevered condition.
* 
It is not recommended to steam after waxing or laser hair removal. We recommend waiting 4 days after waxing and 2 weeks after laser hair removal.



Diva Blends: We proudly offer only the best for your health! All of our herbs are Organic & GMO-Free.  Each steam has its own custom blend but may have come in contact with other herbs, as we use the same bowls for blending. Please speak with your consultant if you have any allergy concerns.

Signs Your Body is TOO ACIDIC...AND...the Health Consequences...

Signs Your Body is TOO ACIDIC...AND...the Health Consequences...






Acidic-alkaline-phchart_22016_3Knowing and monitoring your urine pH (potential hydrogen) is vital to good health. A pH level that is below the healthy range means your body is not doing a good job of ridding your system of acid, therefore, creating the perfect breeding ground for health-depleting microorganisms to flourish like viruses, bacteria, yeast, fungus’ and, yes, cancer cells.
The following are common symptoms that indicate your body is too acidic:
    • Inability to lose excess weight – regardless of dieting or exercise. This occurs because excess waste product in the form of acid stay stored within the body. It is not being eliminated because the organs of detoxification/elimination – colon, kidneys, lymphatics and skin – are not able to do their job of eliminating toxins. Many of my fibromyalgia clients don’t realize until we consult that the excess acid is being pushed back into the fat tissues and causes the “invisible” pain they experience. In addition, the acidic pH retards weight loss because the acidity acts like a magnet and keeps toxins in fat cells.
    • An acidic body will compensate by pulling minerals from your tissues and other organs. One of these minerals is calcium that is necessary for strength and bone health. A low urine pH causes weak bones as their supply of calcium is depleted; fractures occur easily, the reason patients with osteoporosis and osteopenia are asked to avoid acidic foods that deplete calcium (especially beef, caffeine and soft drinks).
    • Your bones store calcium, the same as your teeth. A study in the Int’l Journal of Chemical Engineering showed low pH in the mouth caused demineralization of tooth enamel and cause mouth bacteria to escalate production of lactic acid that results in cavities. Also, an acidic mouth may cause sensitivity to foods and drink temperatures as well as gum disorders/diseases like recession that leads to periodontitis and gingivitis.
  • An acid body allows hordes of microorganism to invade and multiply therefore triggering the immune responses and creating chronic fatigue – inhibiting your body’s ability to absorb essential nutrients. Poor nutrient absorption affects the body’s abilities to produce hormones and enzymes that produce energy.
  • Your skin is the largest organ of absorption AND elimination AND one of the detoxifying organs. When the body is too acidic it becomes prone for bacteria and toxin overload. When this occurs it is usually a result of the liver not being able to eliminate the acidic toxic substances and the skin then compensates by flushing some of them out. When detoxification in this form occurs, it manifests as acne, clogged pores, allergies, rashes and eczema.
  • Excessive mucus production is the body’s natural defense mechanism against acid buildup – its attempting to flush the body through nasal passages. If you are a victim of frequent mucus build-up, your body is overloaded with acid. Chronic mucus buildup, and the irritation it creates, often results in excessive coughing, clearing of throat, wheezing, sinus infections, breathing problems, chest pain and sinus headaches.
  • An acidic body causes the muscles to constrict – further obstructing the oxygen-carrying blood capillaries running through the muscles and, therefore, causes strain and oxygen deprivation. In addition, it obstructs absorption of nutrients and vitamins from the blood that are necessary for proper function. When this occurs, the deprived muscles over-exert themselves to continue function, resulting in soreness and pain. If you experience muscle pain along with fatigue, without other natural causes like over-exertion, it’s a clear sign your body is overly acidic.
  • Inability to get restorative sleep can also result from a low urine pH. If your body is needing sleep yet you struggle to get to, or stay, asleep you should check your pH. If your body is acidic and leaching calcium from your bones to neutralize it, it can lead to sleeplessness or un-restorative sleep.
Getting Your Body Alkaline…
  • Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate – important to keep acids and all fluids moving and aid in their elimination via the digestive tract. Any efforts to achieve wellness or overcome an illness will fail if your body is not receiving adequate hydration. The rule of thumb is to drink half your weight in ounces (minimum daily). Therefore, if you weigh 150 lbs. you need a minimum of 75 ounces. Any drink that does not have forms of sugar or caffeine counts as water (Stevia and Lakanto can be used unlimited). I get tired of plain water so I make herbal teas (hot and iced) as well as fruit-infused waters.
  • Begin your day with Dr. Gloria’s Hot Lemonade – Yes, lemon is an acidic fruit but the difference is it’s only acidic outside the body; when inside it transforms to alkaline and raises your urine pH level. For an educational flier on the health benefits of Hot Lemonade first thing in the morning, Download Nature's Lemonade
  • Limit caffeine consumption – organic coffee is actually healthy but limit it to no more than two cups daily. If you love coffee, like I do, use organic water-processed decaf to satisfy that craving…and…it won’t disturb your sleep or cause that caffeine rush. For a brochure on conditions related to an acidic body Download TooAcidicRemedies.
  • AVOID – alcohol, soft drinks, processed meats, processed foods and artificial sugars.
  • Supplement your diet with calcium and magnesium – low pH starves your body of these minerals by leaching them out of your bones and tissues – see list of green leafy vegetables below, they are rich in calcium and magnesium as are organic dairy products. Mackerel and salmon are rich sources of calcium and magnesium, just watch the source for a healthy terrain in which they reside and AVOID any farm-raised fish.
  • Consume plenty of green leafy vegetables and avoid the nightshades known to accelerate inflammation. The following are the most alkaline: Kale, broccoli, cucumber, spinach, arugula, collards, chard, lettuce, zucchini, celery and green asparagus (white asparagus is acid-producing). Better yet, juice the alkalizing veggies of your choice into a healthy, green juice and drink it with breakfast.
  • Be sure to eat organic – genetically-modified food typically contains chemicals and other health-depleting additives.

NOTE: Be sure to buy those little pH urine testing strips and check your urine once a week first void of the morning and make a note of it for reference. The goal should be to have a consistent pH of about 7.3 – 7.5.
