DESCRIPTION:Share This Article\n\n\nWebinar: BOTANICAL SUPPORT FOR JOINT HEALTH – Supporting a Healthy Inflammatory Response* with Ellen Kamhi\, PhD\, RN\, AHG\, AHN-BC\n\n\nEvent Details\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDate(s): April 27\, 2016\n\n\nTime: 4:00 PM  EST – 5:00 PM  EST\n\n\n\n\n\nEvent Website:https://gaiaprofessional.webex.com/gaiaprofessional/onstage/g.php?MTID=e61f599071c4e597355de234bf942c3d5\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFREE Webinar\nThe World Health Organization proclaimed a Decade of Joint Health\, because it is such a widespread public health concern. Although conventional medical diagnosis attempts to assign a differential diagnosis of one specific kind of joint challenge\, in reality\, many people exhibit a continuum of issues. For example\, even if ‘wear and tear’ is part of the cause\, pro-inflammatory cytokines are often also involved\, leading to accelerated tissue concerns. In this webinar we will review inflammatory pathways and mediators\, such as NF-κB. We will discuss botanicals that can modulate these pathways\, and exhibit other supportive actions\, that lead to enhanced patient comfort.* \nHerbs to be discussed:\n• Jamaican Dogwood\n• Ginger\n• Devil’s claw\n• Boswellia\n• Turmeric\n• Hawthorn\n• Ashwagandha\n• Rosemary\n• Nettle Leaf\n• Others: Hops\, California Poppy\, etc. \nThis webinar is eligible for 1.0 CE hour for ND. To receive CE credit\, you must select ND for your credentials when registering. The CE credit is available only to those participating in the live webinar. After the live webinar\, all ND attendees will automatically receive their CE certificate from the American Association of Naturopathic Physicians (AANP). Gaia Herbs Professional Solutions will provide attendance information to AANP following the live webinar\, there is no follow up required to receive the CE certificate. \n*These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. This webinar is not intended to diagnose\, treat\, cure or prevent any disease. \nAbout the Presenter: \nEllen Kamhi\, PhD\, RN\, AHG\, AHN-BC\, The Natural Nurse® has been involved in Natural Medicine since 1973\, when she directed a program in Ethnobotany at Cochise College in Douglas\, Arizona.

SUMMARY:Critical Updates on FDA Regulation of In-Office Use Compounded Injectable Materials WEBINAR: “Oh No! Do I have to comply with all this?”
DESCRIPTION:Share This Article\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCritical Updates on FDA Regulation of In-Office Use Compounded Injectable Materials WEBINAR: “Oh No! Do I have to comply with all this?”\n\n\n\nDate: Wednesday April 20\, 2016\nTime: 5:30 – 8:30 PM (Webinar and Q&A)\nSpeaker: Dr. Paul Anderson\nPrice: $85 for members | $105 non-members \nFor More Info & To Register: https://www.consultdranderson.com/product/oanp-web-call/ \n“Can I order compounded injectables for in-office use?”\n“Can I have an IV Happy Hour Bar?”\n“Do I need to buy my own laminar flow hood to continue doing IVs?” \nFor all these questions and more\, the answer is “it depends…” \nThe FDA has cracked down on compounded injectable solutions for in-office use after an outbreak of fungal meningitis was attributed to a contaminated compounded product that killed 55 people and sickened 700 nationally. FDA regulations have been an ever moving and baffling target\, largely resulting in providers needing to order compounded injectables in individual doses for specific patients only\, thereby increasing costs\, delaying timely treatment\, and creating barriers to patient care. \nDr. Paul Anderson has spent the last two years sorting through official documents\, consulting with industry experts including pharmacy and legal professionals\, and conducting personal investigations for private medical practices impacted by the FDA rules. In this course\, Dr. A consolidates the laws and rules you need to observe\, will walk you through best clinical practices for enhanced patient safety\, and will answer all your questions about how to legally use injectable compounded medications in your practice. \nThis is a MUST TAKE seminar for anyone who does IVs.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nShare This Article

Currently she focuses on treatment  of “untreatable” unusual illnesses and prevention of illness. She also supervises acupuncture and naturopathic students at her clinic.\nDr. Ambrose tries to utilize natural therapeutics as well as lifestyle counseling to address patient’s symptoms when they come. Patients’ pain leads them to discover their physical weakness\, which can be countered by changing lifestyle. Illness can lead to a deeper understanding of self and if addressed appropriately prevent potentially fatal illnesses in the future. Illnesses like autoimmune disorders\, neurological diseases\, infections\, chronic pain\, can be treated gently and naturally without toxic medications. This takes support\, encouragement by the physician\, and determination on the patients’ part. Overall the most utilized medicine of all in her practice is love and laughter.\n\nKeep checking our web site for additional information on our fabulous speaker program. \nSee you there. \n\n\n\n\nShare This Article

SUMMARY:APND Western Symposium - Fertility\, Pregnancy & Birth!
DESCRIPTION:Share This ArticleJoin the APND in Vancouver for its FIRST Western Symposium.  We are very excited to be featuring Gloria Lemay and Anthony Cheung MD as they share their experience and expertise with you. \nGloria Lemay\, celebrated birth activist and educator\, will be presenting lively\, interactive session on Nutrition in Pregnancy\, Vaginal Birth After Cesarean\, and Waterbirth. \nTechnology in prenatal care is growing unabated but only two things are supported by science to improve the health of the fetus.  The first is improving the nutrition of the pregnant woman.  The second is social support for the pregnant woman.  In this workshop\, we’ll review practical methods of supporting pregnant women to eat\, not only for a baby to survive\, but rather to produce a blue ribbon baby who will have the very best chance to have a highly functioning brain and body. \nAs the rate of cesarean operations continues to climb ever higher\, more and more women want to have information on the safety and advisability of planning a vaginal birth after cesarean.  In this workshop\, we will look into the causes of the cesarean epidemic and how to best insure that women who want to avoid major abdominal surgery know how to get the odds on their side for a vaginal birth despite a uterine scar. The VBAC candidate often has special needs in pregnancy to overcome the trauma of her surgical experience psychologically.  The ability of her care providers to listen to her history and fears of the future birth can make a critical difference to the VBAC outcome.  Each time a woman gives birth\, her obstetrical future is at stake. \nThere is so much more to water birth than just getting into a tub!  Learn to assess the effect of water immersion on the birth process and to address safety concerns. Get tricks of the trade for creating the right environment for surrender and deep relaxation.  Gloria will address how to monitor vital signs\, maintaining the right temperature and cleanliness of the water\, handling meconium\, nuchal cord and stuck shoulders. \nAnthony P. Cheung\, MD  will be discussing Fertility Medications and Adjunct Therapy to Optimize Pregnancy Success in 2016. \nThis presentation explains current fertility medications and adjunct therapy used to optimize pregnancy success and related trends and controversies: \nWhat are the commonly used fertility medications and their roles?
