DIABETES AND MASSAGE

Issue 1

Living Hands The increase of persons with diabetes has raised an increase for research to cure this disease. The types of diabetes vary but they all have common complications: cellular damage to the eyes, kidneys, heart, blood vessels, and nervous system. Massage has been proven to help manage and possibly prevent further damage to these vital organs and systems of the body. Along with the insulin medications, massage can increase energy, circulation, loosens hardened muscles and fascia (especially in the lower legs).

Massage has also been studied to help regulate glucose level….during a massage session of 60 minutes studies have shown that glucose levels have decreased 25– 100 points and lasts for several hours. It is BEST to test glucose levels before any massage session: If 100 points or lower—drink small glass of juice one hour prior to massage or bring it with you to your session...If you test 140-160 points try not to eat anything with the knowledge that the levels will decrease during the massage, but bring a snack with you for afterwards...If you test 160 or higher consult with your doctor first to see if taking an extra insulin injection would be ok to take before massage.

IMPORTANT: SCHEDULE MASSAGE NO LESS THAN 3 -4 HOURS AFTER INSULIN HAS BEEN TAKEN (oral or injection) the increase in circulation can cause the insulin to go through the system too quickly. So before indulging in that relaxing massage, make sure you check your care list first: 1: TEST SUGAR LEVELS 2: MAKE SURE APPOINTMENT IS SCHEDULED 3 -4 HOURS AFTER INSULIN 3: BRING SNACK OR JUICE WITH YOU TO YOUR SESSION 4: ENJOY YOU DESERVE IT!!!!

Massage....Today's Necessity

We’re on the Web!

This would be a good place to insert a short paragraph about your organization. It might include the purpose of the organization, its mission, founding date, and a brief history. You could also include a brief list of the types of products, services, or programs your organization offers, the geographic area covered (for example, western U.S. or European markets), and a profile of the types of customers or members served.
It would also be useful to include a contact name for readers who want more information about the organization.

Back Page Story Headline

This story can fit 175-225 words.
If your newsletter is folded and mailed, this story will appear on the back. So, it’s a good idea to make it easy to read at a glance.
A question and answer session is a good way to quickly capture the attention of readers. You can either compile questions that you’ve received since the last edition or you can summarize some generic questions that are frequently asked about your organization.
A listing of names and titles of managers in your organization is a good way to give your newsletter a personal touch. If your organization is small, you may want to list the names of all employees.
If you have any prices of standard products or services, you can include a listing of those here. You may want to refer your readers to any other forms of communication that you’ve created for your organization.
You can also use this space to remind readers to mark their calendars for a regular event, such as a breakfast meeting for vendors every third Tuesday of the month, or a biannual charity auction.
If space is available, this is a good place to insert a clip art image or some other graphic.
