Look For Alternatives to Alcohol or Other Drugs

The on-going Michael Jackson case involving Dr. Murray not only of the need to choose your family and other doctors carefully -- but also of the need to seek other ways to relax before and after public presentations of any type.


Taking too much alcohol  or other drugs --even prescribed medication to help you overcome insomnia are both like sleeping with a cobra in your bed -- you never know when they can be lethal -- if you think you are being careful.


Of course sometimes pharmaceutical medications are necessary -- but you should be careful and look around for alternative to fight stress and insomnia.


One such alternative is reflexology -- the massage of points in your  feet, legs, hands, arms, head and even ears.  This type of treatment -- shiatsu -- has been around for centuries is is highly effective in fighting both stress and insomnia. And there are no side effects when these treatments are given properly.


You can find information on both reflexology and shiatsu -- on line, in your yellow pages by clicking  on either term.  This will bring information about local practitioners or associations that will be more than happy to provide you with more information.


Of course, discuss all such treatments with your family physician or other doctors first.  You'll find that more and more mainstream medical practitioners do recommend both or either one of these.


Remember, excessive use of  alcohol or drugs, like smoking will eventually destroy your lungs, throat  -- and you.
