Should YOU Breath Salt? by Shelly Allen
W
hen you first meet Susann Hollis your first thought is, “I wonder how she lost her arm?” Is that politically incorrect? Yes. Is it the truth? Yes. Is it a question that most people ask? Absolutely not. It’s like the taboo question, never ask a disabled person how they became disabled, just go along and pretend it doesn’t exist. That’s just what we do, right? The fact is, Susann Hollis’ missing arm is the crux of this story. Hollis suffered a horrific accident while operating a crane, where she was thrown into the gears and subsequently had her lung punctured and lost her arm. She died four times on the operating table. I’ll spare you the gorey details but if you’d like to
december - may 2016 I 27
read more the full story can be found on her website. Following her recovery she was eventually told to move to Florida for a better quality of life. That better quality of life soon turned into a nighmare as Susann developed COPD through a toxic exposure to mold. With nothing left to lose Susann Hollis was ready to throw in the towel. That’s when it happened. A dear friend introduced to her Halotherapy, more commonly referred to as salt therapy. So what exactly is Halotherapy or salt therapy? Halotherapy is a treatment that involves inhaling salt particles. It’s said to be extremely beneficial for a number of health conditions. The use of salt as a health remedy has been around since the Greeks, when Hippocrates recommended salt inhalation as a respiratory treatment. In the 1840s, Dr. Feliks Boczkowski, a Polish doctor who was treating miners, noticed that while coal miners were plagued with all kinds of respiratory problems, salt miners were emerging with pristine lungs and no health complaints. He began studying salt’s medicinal properties and published his findings in the book, “About the Breathing of Salt Dust,” the first of many studies on the effects of breathing salt air. How does Halotherpy work? Air is ion-
ized and saturated with a low concentration of a curative highly dispersed aerosol of NaCl (or salt). Basically, you sit in a big comfy chair in a salt room and take deep breaths of ionized salt air. With just one treatment Susann could already feel the difference and her life was changed. Through consistent Halotherapy treatments she was able to bring her COPD under complete control and take her life back. Hollis became so passionate about Halotherapy she decided to open a Halotherapy clinic, Salt This Way. She wanted to give back to the community and help others the way her friend had helped her. Salt This Way has a number of Halotherapy treatments available and you can find all the details on her website www.SaltThisWay.com. Along with Halotherapy, Salt This Way also offers a variety of other wellness services such as: acupuncture, chiropractic care, IV micronutrient therapy, massage therapy, ect. You can find the full details on the Salt This Way website. Susann Hollis believes Halotherapy saved her life, “People ask me how I can be so passionate about salt. My COPD had become so debilitating I was ready to check out. I had taken myself off all of the medications and was preparing for the end. Halotherapy was a last ditch effort and it saved my life. That is why I am so passionate about salt.”

Five Important Things to Consider When Looking for a Boarding Facility
Tylie Guzzo, TLC Pet Boarding LLC, Davie, FL
december - may 2016 I 45
I
f you have pets, and you travel, what do you do? Leaving your four-legged family members behind can be as stressful for you as it is for them, but it doesn’t have to be. Family, friends, and neighbors are all options, but a boarding facility could be your best bet...But do your homework! 1. Ask for a Tour of the boarding facility. While there be aware of: • Attitude: The staff should be interacting with the animals. You should see them enjoy their work. • Cleanliness: When deciding who to trust with your pet’s care, the sanitary condition of their facility, both inside and out, speaks to their attention to detail. • Peace and tranquility: Relaxed or sleeping dogs, vs. dogs that look anxious, are pacing or continuously barking reflect the overall care and concern of the staff for their guests. • Accommodations: The pen your dog is kept in should be big enough for your dog to roam freely and should be escape-proof. • Safety: Secured, escape proof outdoor play areas where dogs can play and socialize. • Supervision: It’s important to know whether or not someone will be on the premises at all times. 2. Ask what is required to stay at this facility. Boarding facilities should require all pets to be up to date with vaccines.
Safety comes first, if the boarding facility doesn’t require Rabies, Bordetella and DHPP (which are mandatory vaccines for boarding of dogs) run away from that place. 3. Ask if Boarding facility would allow the pets to bring their own food, toys, bedding, etc. Allowing pet’s to bring their own food can avoid upset stomachs. Having something with a familiar scent or their own toys may help to reduce separation anxiety of your pet. 4 . A sk if the boardi n g facility offers a trial stay. If the boarding facility cares about reducing separation anxiety, and bonding with your pet is important to them, they would offer a complementary overnight stay. 5 . A sk how ma n y potty breaks a n d p l ay t i m e o u t i n g s yo u r p e t will hav e while bei n g boarded. Most pets get at least three potty breaks while at home, you know what your own routine is. Find out how many outings you pet will enjoy while being boarded. Also find out how long they will remain in their suite while indoors. It’s your responsibility to make sure that your pet can relieve himself. The most important thing to note when visiting different boarding facilities is how the environment makes you feel. Trust your gut. Watch your pet, what is their reaction to this new, special place. If you and they feel comfortable on your first visit there, and you both get along well with the staff members, it’s likely that your best bud will feel at ease there without you as well.
