E-bar The Organic Day Spa: A Queensland First
!
When people first walk through our door at Equalibrium
Bar , currently the largest stockist of natural and
certified organic Australian skincare, they discover
a whole new world they never knew existed. Beyond packaging,
beauty trends, or marketing messages they begin to educate
their skin and to understand terms such as "truly
natural", "certified organic" and "clinical aromatherapy".
The main reason for this trend towards natural and organic
is because we live in a society where we are becoming
more aware of everything we do to ourselves - the food
we eat, the water we drink, the clothes we wear, what
we listen to and watch on the daily basis and our effect
on the environment & in return its effects on us - we
know these are the things that shape our lives, the
way we live, the quality of our life and even how long
we live.
Toxic-free lifestyle advocate Jo Costello, the owner
of Queensland's first and only 'supermarket' for toxic-free
and organic bathroom products has a vision for your
bathroom: to see it free of products containing toxins
which may be damaging to your health.
"e-bar was founded on my belief that if consumers had
easy access to a range of products and information about
what was actually in them, most would prefer to use
non-toxic products," Jo said.
"Every product counts. If you replace just one toxic
product you use daily, like toothpaste or shampoo, with
a non-toxic alternative, you have started on the road
to regaining your body's natural equilibrium," Jo said.
Joanne once again shows her standards of Corporate Social
Responsibility by opening Australia's first certified
organic day spa, this is accredited through OFC the
organic food chain and goes though rigorous stages of
auditing to ensure the consumer that the company practices
what it preaches.
With e-bar's leading edge in the market today and the
consumer market placing the demands on business today
to support and protect our planet, we are seeing the
veil lifted and the market of certified organic begin.
As Joanne is a member of ASPA Australia's leading Spa
Membership and in attending the latest conference at
Luna Park in Sydney noticed a positive energy shift
towards certified organic, with spa owners recognising
that the consumer is now harder to please if the brand
is not suited to there ethics. The fact is certified
organic is the preferred choice when explained to the
consumer, and for the intelligent consumer they investigate
the brand you have before booking the appointment. E-bar
The Organic Day Spa along with Jasmin Certified Organic
Skincare and e-bar certified organic formulations are
built to sustain the future of the well-being industry.
"I recommend customers look at the products in their
own bathrooms - if they don't understand the ingredients
listing, how can they be sure the products are not damaging
their health?" Jo said.
The full range of products from e-bar is available to
read about and purchase on www.ebar.com.au
or by visiting the Indooroopilly Shopping Centre store.

Natural Animal Care: Treating the Symptoms Not Just
Disease!
Natural Animal Care is a Brisbane based business that
promotes and advocates natural therapies and products
for animals. We use Homeopathy, Naturopathy, Nutrition,
Reiki and Massage to assist all animals including dogs,
cats, small animals, and horses.
At Natural Animal Care we recognise the importance of
treating symptoms, not just disease. When presented
with a dog with dermatitis, for example we establish
during consultation that his skin is itchy, swollen,
and inflamed. Treatment may involve natural anti-inflammatories,
fish oils, herbal tonics and creams, detoxification
and natural foods to help remove any preservatives,
by-products and other additives from the diet. These
natural treatments help to stimulate the body's own
healing ability. We ease the inflammation with supplements
the body recognises; we eliminate chemicals from the
body, and apply topical treatments to the skin, allowing
the body to slowly and effectively heal the dermatitis.
A conventional veterinary may diagnosis the dermatitis,
and prescribe antibiotics and cortisone. This helps
in the short term, but often the problem reoccurs. This
is because drugs suppress the underlying cause of the
condition. For example, a dog with dermatitis (stage
1) is given a course of drugs; he starts vomiting as
a side-effect (stage 2) and is given anti-nausea medication.
The skin improves and the vomiting stops and all is
well. A month later the dog develops an ear infection
and is lethargic (stage 3). The dog is then given conventional
ear drops... and so it continues. With each new prescription
the problem is suppressed deeper and deeper within the
animal until eventually a far more serious problem,
such as liver disease or cancer presents.
There are of course cases that require assistance from
conventional drugs, and we like to work alongside veterinarians
as much as possible but often natural alternatives can
be introduced to promote natural healing.

The Healing Power of Touch:
With Ambience Body Therapies!
The
power of touch is often underestimated. Touch, in the
form of massage, can have immense positive effects on
a person, physically and psychologically. There are
many more benefits of positive touch experience such
as massage than are widely recognized, with many validated
by scientific study.
Studies conducted at the Touch Research Institute show
that beyond merely reducing muscle tension, regular
massage can lead to:
Increased energy levels
Better sleeping patterns (reduction of insomnia)
Reduction of stress and depression
Increased immune activity, resulting in less risk of
illness
Medical researchers have estimated that 80% of all diseases
are related to physical or mental stress. Soothing and
relaxing massage therapy treatments can help counteract
the negative effects of stress, and therefore maintain
wellbeing.
Massage has also been shown to have powerful psychological
benefits. Clinical trials where blood samples were taken
before and after massage therapy have shown that blood
serum levels of certain chemicals increase after massage,
mainly endorphins, serotonin and oxytoxin. Endorphins
tell our body to "feel" blissful while serotonin relaxes
us and oxytoxin aids us to feel "connected" with others.
This explains why we not only feel a natural "high"
after massage, but also feel emotionally warmer and
more connected.
It is interesting to note that studies also show the
opposite effect- people who are neglected and do not
receive physical affection or touch during childhood
are much more likely to abuse their own children and
/ or become violent. In light of this, it becomes apparent
how important massage can be in today's low-touch society.
Massage has been utilized for its healing benefits for
over five thousand years-it is an age-old tried and
true healing therapy. Many scientific studies have validated
the use of massage to reduce pain, stress and depression,
increase immunological function and aid in the healing
process of many illnesses. Today regular massage is
considered by many not as a luxury but as an essential
to maintaining good health.

Serving The Earth!
Serving The Earth: by Vicki Robin
"I
don't know what your destiny will be, but one thing
I do know; the only ones among you who will be truly
happy will be those who have sought and found a way
to serve."- Albert Schweitzer. All hands are needed
in working to protect the planet. This article, while
written in 1990, still rings true for many. Earth Care
is spiritual work, which we all now know we must engage
in, there is no longer any choice. For a spirituality
of the Earth to be bold and robust, it must include
action. And to act on behalf of something is to be of
service. What does it mean to be of service, and especially
of service to the Earth? Vicki Robin has some answers.
