coming in the october issue HEALTHY PLANET news briefs Contrast Therapy Comes to Eden Prairie Dr. Amanda Haeg, of Cadence Chiropractic, in Eden Prairie, is excited to announce the opening of their new Contrast Suite, at 6409 City West Parkway, Suite 105, which includes both an infrared sauna and PLUNGE ice bath. Contrast therapy is an opportunity to expose the body to controlled “stress” in order to train it to become more resilient. This additional wellness benefit provides two unique therapies that can be used on their own or as a part of a total wellness program. Appointments will be available beginning September 6. The infrared sauna provides a lower temperature alternative to traditional high-heat, high-humidity saunas. Instead of steam or flame-stoked heat, infrared saunas use infrared lamps and electromagnetic waves to create warmth. The process allows infrared saunas to operate at a lower temperature while still providing therapeutic benefits. This is especially beneficial for patients who struggle in traditional saunas where the overall temperature is between 150 and 195 degrees. The infrared sauna is typically between 110 to 135 degrees, making it more accessible for people with health concerns. Benefits are plentiful. Shortly after entering the sauna, the heart rate increases similar to walking at a moderate pace, which helps to reduce blood pressure. Additional benefits include soothing sore muscles, pain relief, relaxation and better sleep. Infrared saunas also reduce oxidative stress which is associated with cardiovascular disease, cancer and degenerative diseases like dementia. Finally, the PLUNGE ice bath provides the opportunity for patients to immerse themselves in 59-degree water, immediately stimulating blood flow and triggering the production of the neurotransmitter norepinephrine, a critical chemical in the body that helps regulate attention, focus, and energy. Additional benefits include reduced chronic pain, boosting the metabolism, better sleep, elevated mood, increased resilience, lower inflammation and more.

Linda Conroy, Midwest Women’s Herbal Conference Core Team and Founder Mycelium Mysteries 2022 Midwest Women’s Herbal presents the sixth annual Mycelium Mysteries Conference, celebrating flora, fauna and funga, from September 23 through 25, at Camp Helen Brachman. There will be several pre-conference events, including forays and all-day workshops. The only women-focused mushroom conference in the world, Mycelium Mysteries focuses on mushrooms as the grandmothers of our ecosystem and celebrates women’s voices from the world of mycology, personal growth and the healing arts. The keynote speaker is New York Times bestselling author Suzanne Simard, author of Finding the Mother Tree. She will share the relevance of her work to those that love mushrooms, trees and community building, with advice for women interested in pursuing science as a career. Others will speak on the significance of lichens in the environment, mushroom identification, mushroom foraging, growing and cooking with mushrooms, making art and medicine with mushrooms, using mushrooms for health and healing, personal growth, mycelium as a metaphor and more. Gathering in community, sharing knowledge, singing together, and eating delicious food prepared from scratch by Dani Lind and her crew from Rooted Spoon Catering, this weekend nourishes and connects women deeply to the Earth through mycelium and to each other.

©ldeca Productions Dental Implants: A Better Option for Teeth Replacement A dental implant surgically placed into the bone is a highly effective option to replace a missing tooth. Dr. Holly Thompson, at Natural Smiles Dental Care, in Shoreview, is now providing this procedure to new and existing patients. Thompson uses zirconia (ceramic) implants which are more biocompatible than the traditional titanium materials, with a much more favorable cosmetic result. After the zirconia implant is inserted, a healing cap is placed over the implant; a few months later, this cap is replaced by an abutment and fitted with a ceramic crown. Natural Smiles Dental Care is committed to providing the highest quality of implant services possible, which includes supporting each patient with all the “tools” their jawbone needs in order to successfully integrate with the implants. Ozone therapy in the form of water and gas is utilized in the implant placement procedure. In some situations, Thompson can place an implant at the same appointment as the tooth extraction. “We require that anyone undergoing implant services have their vitamin D levels checked, which is a simple, finger-prick blood test done in our office,” explains Thompson. “Based on those results, it may be recommended to purchase our Dental Recovery Support Program Kit which is a six-week comprehensive dental recovery support program that promotes the body’s healing process prior to and after surgery.” These vitamin and mineral dietary supplements offer key nutritional formulations designed to enhance antioxidant and vitamin levels. Patients who have had the implants placed report a relative lack of discomfort both during the placement and throughout their healing. Thompson focuses on the removal of toxic root canal teeth. She believes that “If it’s metal or dead, it doesn’t belong in your head.” She is highly skilled in conservative tooth removal and proper cleaning of the tooth socket by thoroughly cleaning the infection, removing the periodontal ligaments, ozonating the socket, red light therapy, and placing the patient’s own platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) into the site to promote proper healing and bone growth in the most natural way possible. Thompson, DDS, trains through the Swiss Biohealth Center, in Switzerland, and is an active traveler and participant in the monthly study clubs held throughout the country. She places the Swiss Dental Solutions zirconia implant which she believes is the best zirconia implant available. Thompson is also training to be a certified Naturopathic Physician through the American College of Integrative Medicine and Dentistry (ACIMD) as she believes the knowledge of tying together the whole mind, body and nutrition is imperative to being the best biological dentist she can be for her patients.
