It's that time of year, especially with all the recent storm damage. If you've been cleaning up trees, it's likely you have been exposed to poison ivy. So if you have been removing brush and suddenly find yourself with a rash within the next couple of days, it's likely poison ivy. What is poison ivy??

Poison ivy is a type of allergenic plant in the genus Toxicodendron which is native to East Asia and North America.

Treatment: Apply an over-the-counter cortisone cream or ointment (Cortizone 10) for the first few days. Apply calamine lotion or creams containing menthol. Take oral antihistamines, such as diphenhydramine (Benadryl), which may also help you sleep better.

If you see no improvement, give us a call and we can help you out.

As May approaches it's worth sharing that your mental health is just as important as your physical, or spiritual health. Many people do not seek help due to the stigma surrounding mental health. Don't be a statistic. Your life matters. You matter.

APRIL IS STRESS AWARENESS MONTH!

Below are some tips or ways you can help lower your stress and anxiety levels.

Deep Breathing: Practices such as Box Breathing (inhale, hold, exhale, and wait for 4 counts each) or the 4-7-8 method can quickly trigger the body's relaxation response.

The 3-3-3 Rule: A grounding technique where you name three objects you see, identify three sounds you hear, and move three body parts to refocus in the moment.

Progressive Muscle Relaxation: Involves tensing and then releasing different muscle groups to physicalize and discharge stored tension

Sensory Engagement: Using the Five Senses (e.g., listening to music, smelling essential oils, or looking at photos) can rapidly shift the nervous system away from a stress state.

If you enjoy the great outdoors, now is a good time to go for a walk or hike. Go to the nearest strip pit and go fishing. Whatever helps you unwind.

HAVE A GREAT DAY!!

The weather over the next few days will be on a roller coaster again. If you suffer from migraines or allergies, these next few days will not be your friend. Shifts in the barometric pressure often trigger migraines for some and the wind is sure to stir up plenty of pollen and dust. Stay weather aware, and well. Have a great day!

Is it allergies or is it a cold?

Allergies are often associated with itchy, watery eyes. Sneezing, runny nose, and can last for weeks or even months.

Colds are often associated with similar symptoms, but in addition to all of the above, come with body aches, fevers, chills, and often resolve within 3-14 days.

Either way, we can help.
