>>  Get Your Treatment Now <<

 

Ba Zi can be literal translate as 'Eight Characters'. Basically, Ba Zi is derived from birth date: the year, month, day and time you were born. Each consists of a distinct pair of characters, hence making up the eight characters. From these eight characters, thousands of combination is possible. Ba Zi is derived from four pair of character, thus, sometime people refer to it as the Four Pillars or Si Zhu as well.

To the Chinese, a period of sixty year is known as one Jia Zi. In ancient China, from experience and by observing the nature, the Chinese discovered a phenomenon. A cycle of climatic or chronology event seem to repeat every sixty year. Meaning if year 2000 is a full of rainfall, the climate for 2060 would be similar. With this knowledge, prevention can be make. Especially, since the weather has an impact on the agriculture, economy and health.

The eight characters are make up of Yin and Yang variation of the Five Elements: Yang Wood, Yin Wood, Yang Fire, Yin Fire, Yang Earth, Yin Earth, Yang Metal, Yin Metal, Yang Water and Yin Water. By analyzing the combination of these eight characters, the personality, destiny of a person can be determine.

With a deeper understanding of ones own personality, you can open up potential and maximize growth. Have better emotional control and decision making. With the knowledge of upcoming influence forces, you are more ready to react and bring out the best performance and avoid unnecessary set back. Knowing your destiny does not mean "That is it. I am fate to be..." This knowledge should be view as a guidance, a map, a motivation booster.

Destiny can be change. But you have to put in a lot of hard work, a lot of perseverance, a lot of determination. There is no free lunch. For example, you have a Ba Zi which indicates that you will be rich. Each day passes by, you dream about what you are going to do when you are rich. You dream about how you are going to spend the money. BUT, you do nothing to make your dream come true. You say to yourself "I am fated to be rich one day... it does not matter if I work hard or not ..." Soon, one day, when your are too old and weak, you will find that you are not rich at all, instead, you are in debt, facing bankruptcy!

What does Ba Zi got to do with Feng Shui? You might ask? Think of Ba Zi as a map, with road sign and indicators to guide you along your life path. Feng Shui becomes the tool that would help you to overcome any obstacle and let you have a smooth journey. For example, if your Ba Zi indicates that you are a hot-tempered person and you find that your relationship with others is not too good. You are constantly angry and it seems like everybody come looking for a fight. The Feng Shui consultant would analysis your Ba Zi and might advice you to wear a sapphire ring, for example. Slowly you would find that there is a change to your life. You find that you have lesser argument with the people around you. You feel good. You can focus on your personal growth. You can do the things that truly resonate with your heart.

Getting Used to the Bulk - Anti Snoring Appliance

Do you know of someone who's cured his snoring? It's a reality. Forty-five percent of the world's population snore and recent studies have associated snoring with high blood pressure, hypertension, cardiovascular diseases, and stroke. Snoring in pregnant woman has also been known to adversely affect the growth of the unborn child. Little children who snore likeswise are noted to have lower learning abilities and poor mental health.

So snoring is this destructive? It actually depends. Snoring can be classified as mild snoring to habitual snoring. However, habitual snoring may already be a symptom of a dreaded condition called sleep apnea. In this condition, a person actually stops breathing for about 10 seconds and some as long as 30 seconds occurring several times a night. Person with the sleep apnea disorder tend to be less productive during the day and irritable. Snoring today is not only a physical problem, it's anti-social as well. The best thing to do before anything could get worse is to: cure snoring at once.

If the homeopathic tips did not prove useful for you, it might be time to try some anti snoring appliance. There are many available products of anti snoring appliance. Let's tackle some just for the point of discussion and not as to recommend.

Basically, the narrowing of the airway due to the relaxation of the neck muscles when a person sleeps at night causes snoring. The soft tissues that flap when air passes through creating the vibratory sound called snoring. An anti snoring appliance generally has a dental overlay portion and a guide ramp portion that fits on the lower jaw and guides it to move forward to prevent snoring.

Makers of the "Negus" anti snoring appliance claim this product has been well researched. This anti snoring appliance is worn in the mouth of a snorer at night to eliminate or lessen snoring. The "Negus" pushes the tongue forward away from the back of the throat so that the airway is made larger.

Another anti snoring appliance is the "Silensor". This device still uses the same principle of pushing the lower jaw forward to provide a bigger opening of the pharyngeal space. This anti snoring appliance consists of an upper and lower forming worn over the respective tooth arches. The two lateral rotating connectors connecting the formings gently pull the lower jaw forward increasing the opening during sleep.

Same principle is used by the manufacturer of the anti snoring appliance called "Noiselezz". This anti snoring appliance is still made of two components that are fit to the upper and lower jaw. The Noiselezz keeps the airway unblocked by slightly pulling the mandible (lower jaw) forward to create enough space.

Snoring could be more than just a nuisance to the person sleeping beside the snorer. It could complicate to more serious health problems. Prior to wearing any other anti snoring appliance, you'd be better off paying a visit to your physician first.

Little Noisy Breathers - Baby Snoring

                

>>  Get Your Treatment Now <<

 

If you're a parent of a noisy newborn, it's really nothing that should cause any alarm. Like most parts of their bodies, which are still immature, babies are noisy breathers in general because their nasal passages are still narrow and usual are filled with bubbly secretions. When air passes through these puddles of secretions, a vibratory sound is produced ? making us think our baby is "snoring". Baby snoring is basically just a sound produced by the soft tissues as air passes in. As the baby grows older, as well as his nasal passages, and as he learns to swallow excess saliva these vibratory sounds or baby snoring should subside.

Some ways to get home relief for these little snores is to clear the baby's air passages. If you think the baby's nose seems partly obstructed, spurt a few drops (be careful not to drown your baby) of saltwater in you baby's nose. Some drugstores recommend saline nose sprays but you can make your home-made version by diluting ? teaspoon of salt to 8 ounces of clean or pre-boiled water. Use a nasal aspirator (available in drugstores and baby's sections) to gently suck out the secretions out of your baby's nose.

Another home remedy for baby snoring is to clean nasal passages using steam. Do this in the evening, before bedtime usually occurs during this time. Give your baby a warm shower (or you can stand with you baby) to loosen excess secretions. Another thing to avoid baby snoring is to clear your baby's room of allergens like dust collectors or animal dander. These allergens cause the excess production of mucus as the body's natural defenses to clean the air entering the body.

In instances, though, when baby snoring still persists, as your baby grows older, it's best to pay a visit to your pediatrician. Some infant snoring is caused by an abnormal structure in his nasal passages. Enlarged tonsils are also cause of snoring in older children but rarely does this happen to infants. Enlarged tonsils may be corrected by a simple outpatient operation. Pediatricians may also check for cysts or if there are no abnormal movements in your baby's palate.

One more cause for baby snoring is laryngomalacia. Laryngomalacia is a condition in which your baby's cartilage, that opens as air passes in, has not fully matured yet but this should subside by the sixth month.

Baby's weight may also contribute to baby snoring. Frequent baby snoring may already be a sign of sleep apnea. If your baby has this condition, his breathing may stop for about 10 seconds (due to the obstruction in the nasal passages). Baby's and toddlers experiencing sleep apnea tend to be sleepy and tired during the day.

Why Does my Toddler Snore? Snoring in Toddlers

                

>>  Get Your Treatment Now <<

 

It might be typical for little babies to snore because secretions in their throat often clog their tiny, immature air passages causing the vibratory sound. As babies grow older and as their air passages matures and widens, however, this vibratory sound should subside by the sixth month. Snoring in toddlers on the other hand may be normal when your toddler has bouts of colds, flu, or allergy. This is occasional snoring. If the snoring in toddlers becomes more frequent during their sleep, it could be a symptom of sleep apnea.

Sleep apnea is a serious sleep disorder caused by enlarged adenoids (the glands in the throat on the roof of the palate) blocking the air passage and affects 500,000 children in the United States annually. This gives difficulty for your toddler in breathing during their sleep at night. Sleep apnea is characterized as a pause in breathing for about 10 seconds during sleep. Some toddlers in this condition tend to awaken several times in the middle of the night. Sleep apnea results in daytime lack of energy in toddlers when they're supposed to be active, crankiness and irritability, and lead to behavior problems.

Long-term effects of inadequate sleep in toddlers are poor memory retention and poor mental health leading to learning problems when they enter pre-school. Experts advice that the period between 3 to 6 years old is the peak when snoring becomes harmful to a child's development. It is also at this stage when treating snoring makes a huge difference in their behavior and learning.

Once you hear snoring in toddlers and suspect that he/she has sleep apnea, a visit to the doctor must be heeded. Doctors would generally evaluate the size of the adenoids and other peculiarities in the throat. An outpatient operation might be required (such as removing the enlarged tonsils) to correct this and lessen the occurrence of snoring in toddlers and sleep apnea.

Home remedy for snoring in toddlers (including sleep apnea) is shifting them to another sleeping position. Studies concluded that snoring toddlers could breathe better when they're made to lie on their side or stomach. Special pillows (available in the market) may also alleviate the condition of snoring in toddlers and sleep apnea.

In general, any child who snores is not getting enough sleep and sleep is essential for optimum physical, mental and emotional growth especially during the development stage. Your primary reaction once you hear snoring in toddlers should be never to neglect it. It could just be mild snoring (which can easily be corrected) or it could already be sleep apnea. So seek medical advice today.

The Risks of Snoring During Pregnancy

                

>>  Get Your Treatment Now <<

 

Are you pregnant and have been snoring lately? You could already be suffering from sleep apnea.

Pregnancy takes a woman to scores of emotional and physical changes, which is primarily caused by hormonal changes ? with estrogen being the dominant hormone during pregnancy. Increase in estrogen reportedly makes the neck muscles to relax and compounded with the accumulated fats around the neck area cause snoring. Snoring during pregnancy usually occurs in the last four weeks of gestation (this accounts to 30% of pregnant women). This is normal and a preferred sleeping position like sleeping on the sides usually alters this. Most pregnant women feel more relaxed when sleeping on their sides to avoid the weight of their bellies especially during the third trimester.

For excessive or chronic snoring, it may be a sign of sleep apnea. Sleep apnea is characterized by a pause in breathing for about 10 seconds resulting to oxygen-deprivation and further complicates to preemclampsia. Preeclampsia is a condition that only happens during pregnancy and is associated with high blood pressure, proteinuria (protein present in urine), and swelling. Patients with preemclampsia may have any or all of the following symptoms: sleepiness during daytime, headaches, blurred vision, abnormalities in liver function and vomiting. If only one of these symptoms occur, it is not a sign of preeclampsia.

Consequently, a study found out that snoring during pregnancy is more common in women who have put on more of the ideal weight. 14% of the women who snored had pregnancy-induced hypertension. 52% of the pregnant women who habitually snored experienced edema (swelling) of the face, hands, legs, and feet compared to 30% who didn't snore.

Meanwhile, oxygen deprivation in patients with sleep apnea has been correlated with growth retardation of the fetus and sometimes, death. If excessive snoring during pregnancy occurs, a physician's advice needs to be sought because the condition could be devastating to the mother and unborn child. Infants born to mothers who were snoring during pregnancy frequently had lower birth weight and Apgar scores (a test taken immediately after a baby is born regarding heart rate, breathing, reflex, muscle tone, and skin color). From this study, although the causes of preemclampsia are unknown, there seems to be a correlation between snoring, preeclampsia, and to babies with lower birth weights.

An expectant woman's condition is crucial to the development of the unborn child in same manner that a pregnant woman also needs to take care of her well-being. Snoring during pregnancy is a sign of or could lead to poor physical health which could be harmful to the mother and baby. It is important that a pregnant woman undergoes regular pre-natal checkups and reports any physical complaints to a physician.

Snoring is present in almost half of the adult population of the world. With this, chances are, your favorite Hollywood star may not look (and sound) so good while sleeping. But if you?re a snorer yourself, that isn?t much to turn you off.

What causes the gurgling sounds during sleep? Snores sound like someone is choking you in your dreams, but don?t push your luck. Unless you get strangled in your sleep every night, the sounds you make do not have anything to do with your dreams. A lot of people who are suffering from this problem have no idea as to the causes and cures for snoring.

Individuals who have nasal congestions are more prone to become snorers. Those with enlarged tonsils, long palate and uvula, and loose tongue and throat muscles are also very likely to become habitual snorers. Men, especially those with weight problems, are also more vulnerable to have the snoring condition than women.

Snoring is not a joke. It may be used very often as a punch line, but it is not something we can all take lightly. Snoring can actually be life-threatening. Other health hazards such as hypertension and cardiac arrest are only some of the consequences of habitual snoring. Thus, learning about the causes and cures for snoring does not only allow people to achieve restful sleep, but also well-being.

If you think your partner?s snoring is getting better with each passing year, you may only have learned to live with it. Snoring worsens with age. And the more they are ignored, the more the snorer is at risk to diseases. To better understand and address this problem, it is advisable that you learn about the causes and cures for snoring. Mild snoring problems can be helped, even without resorting to medicines that are abundantly available in the market today.

Persons who engage in healthy lifestyles are less likely to have major snoring issues. Those who snore occasionally may be doing so because they are exposed to sedatives, antihistamines, and other sleep-inducing medications before their bedtime. Also, people suffering from colds or sinusitis will have instances of snoring. This can be prevented by natural remedies such as inhaling steam or treating stuffy noses with saline solutions.

The causes and cures for snoring are very much related to each other. People who eat heavy meals just before bedtime are most prone to snoring. Individuals who smoke, drink, and are often overly tired, will eventually have snoring problem. They can counteract it by eliminating all those habits. If not, you won?t only get strangled in your dreams, but in real life as well.

The anti snoring dental devices can be obtained by visiting your dentist. These are custom-made and are supposed to fit easily into your mouth.

The ?mechanism? of the anti snoring dental devices is pretty simple. When worn, it works by positioning the jaw forward, moving the tongue along with it.

Do you know the reason why most snorers are male? Legend claims that males make those ugly noises to protect their women by warding off beasts of prey. How chivalrous!

Snoring Disorder

If a snoring partner is a ground for divorce, the world would be filled with single parents and rich lawyers. And why is that? It?s because almost 50% of adults snore occasionally, and a good 25% has this as a habit. Men usually have the snoring disorders, and unfortunately, unlike wine, this doesn?t get better with age.

A barking dog, rain tapping on the roof, or cars passing by can prevent you from achieving a good night?s sleep. However, nothing comes close to sleeping beside somebody with snoring disorders.

Generally, sleep accounts for about a third of the average person?s life. However, much as we hope for a peaceful sleep, it sometimes is far from our grasp. Snoring disorders are actually sirens that warn us of possible health problems.

There are two types of snoring disorders: Primary Snoring and Obstructive Sleep Apnea. The first type is the most common and is basically a telltale sign for people that they may have the obstructive sleep apnea, or the second type of snoring disorder, in the future.

People who experience extreme snoring accompanied by gasping and ceases in breathing are suffering from obstructive sleep apnea. This type of snoring disorder is more common in males and obese people. People with these symptoms should be checked by a doctor. This condition means that you are deprived of the right amount of oxygen which can result to serious illnesses.

Obstructive sleep apnea can occur from as few as five times to as many as 50 times in one hour. Breathing stoppages up to a hundred times every night can accompany this type of snoring disorder. Persons with this condition often experience excessive sleepiness during the day and may place them in such risk as sleeping while driving.

If you are unsure whether you have sleep apnea or not, visit your doctor. He may ask you to go have a sleep study in order to determine the level of your snoring disorder. Sleep apnea, which usually exists together with high blood pressure, stroke, and other cardiovascular diseases, may require you to have surgery or be fitted with a Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) machine. If the doctor rules out this type of snoring disorder, then he might refer you to the dentist. There is actually a dental gadget that is to be worn when you go to sleep in order to prevent the person from snoring.

Snoring is not only unhealthy but it also brings about social problems. Unfortunately, there are no oral medications to relieve you of the snoring disorder. And since it?s a health issue, you can?t just ask yourself to get used to it. Even though sometimes, it blends well with the rest of the sounds at night.

Infant Snoring: Blame It On The Parents

                

>>  Get Your Treatment Now <<

 

If one might have not noticed, infants do snore. Did you witness your infant snoring? And you ask who are to blame? Look in the other rooms of the house. Then see who also snores in their sleep. Surely, you?ll find at least one who snores. Oh, it?s not your wife? And don?t even try to think that your infant got it from your household helper either. Oh yes, you?ve got it right ? it could only be you.

Studies show that infant snoring can be traced to their parents. With at least one parent who snores, the child will most probably grow a snorer as well. Especially so if your child is diagnosed with atopy, you have most likely in your possession, a baby who will follow the steps of a snoring parent. Atopy means having a hereditary inclination towards developing reactions as asthma, hay fever and other allergies.

It is worthwhile to note that snoring is caused by an obstruction to the nasal airways of the person. With a child diagnosed with atopy, the child?s nasal airways is most likely to be congested causing breathing problems especially while sleeping.

If you find your infant snoring, go to your family doctor for help. Your doctor can refer you to the right specialist for the job. Your child might have sleep apnea, and if the medical specialist requires it, your child?s tonsils or adenoids may have to be removed. These tonsils and adenoids work to combat bacteria, and would usually get enlarged in the process of doing so. Another would be perhaps your child is overweight for his size and age, and some revisions of his diet may be in order. This should be done with the advice and guidance of your child?s doctor.

One way to remedy infant snoring, especially if this is caused by allergies is by using an air purifier and keeping the area clean so that no foreign substance will cause infection on the infant?s airways. Always keep the baby?s bed, pillow, blankets, and etc. clean and free of dust.

The best way should be to consult a physician for the specific needs of your baby. Be reminded that your child is yet very young and is in a critical stage. Proper treatment at the earliest possible time would do your baby good. Don?t be complacent and make sure you put your child?s health in the best hands. Never take any signs for granted. With infant snoring, the earlier the treatment, the better. You owe it to your child. After all, your infant got it from you, right?

Before your doctor advises you to wear such a device, as your way to prevent snoring, you will be evaluated as to the frequency of episodes of obstructed breathing while on your sleep, as to the noise disturbance your create during your sleep, as to the headaches you experience throughout the day, etc. You will undergo a physical exam, with your medical history taken into consideration. An otorhinolaryngological examination to check your airway will also be conducted. The last step of the evaluation involves checking and determining the appropriate CPAP pressure during a sleep study. All the data and information gathered will be used in determining the right treatment for your snoring problems.

Nasal Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) makes use of specially designed nasal masks or pillows. It helps keeping your airway open while inhaling. It is an effective non-surgical remedy to prevent snoring and to treat obstructive sleep apnea problems. The mechanism blows air on the upper airway, just enough to prevent the airway tissues from obstructing your breathing during sleep. The pressure of this device is kept consistent, and continuous.

Once you have been finally advised to use CPAP by your doctor to prevent snoring, the next critical thing is choosing the mask for your use. Comfort should be a consideration. An alternative though is the use of nasal pillows where two small caps are inserted into the nostrils. Those with beard or moustache usually prefer this, as facial hair can compromise the effectiveness of said masks.

Dry skin also is an impediment to the function of the mask seal. The use of skin moisturizers made specifically for CPAP purposes will solve this problem. Take note as well that too much skin oil also is a problem as it loosens the contact between the mask and the face.

The use of CPAP to prevent snoring is a matter of choice. Your doctor can advise you well on this matter, and should this fit your comfort and convenience, choose a mask that you like. There are manufacturers who offer custom made masks with your comfort in mind. Never settle for anything less than what gives you comfort in the application of CPAP for your snoring problems.

Do you snore? Does your partner give out that loud noise during breathing while in sleep? Do you hear your child, or your parents snoring?

Snoring is the noise one makes while breathing in their sleep. It is quite prevalent with males and more to obese people. This is also observable with older generations as well.

Snoring may arise when there is a nasal infection. This blocks your breathing pattern, but as soon as you have recovered, this usually goes away. Also when one is overweight, the throat muscles and tissues are not firm enough to resist vibration when breathing. Another factor is age ? since the older a person gets, the weaker the muscles in the throat become, which makes it sag and vibrate while breathing. Drinking beer or other alcoholic drinks, and some drugs which limits your control of your nervous system, contributes to snoring as well.

Having a balanced diet will be important to having a functional immune system. This will slow down your natural aging pattern.

Be committed to an exercise program. A 20-minute exercise per session would suffice, done 3 to 4 times a week. One can start off slowly by just walking - what is important is you know what you have to do, and little by little you work on towards your goal. Cross training allows for variety in your exercise program and would keep you from becoming bored on your exercise routine. A sensible and consistent exercise program can also inhibit the natural aging process.

Surgery for Snoring 101

                

>>  Get Your Treatment Now <<

 

People usually make do first with non-surgical ways to stop their snoring problem. However if these do not work and all means have been exhausted, the alternative usually is surgery. Surgery for snoring has been a treatment for some time now, intended specifically for worst cases of snoring, and on treatment of snoring cases which can only be addressed with surgical ways.

There are basically for types of surgery for snoring. These are: Uvulopalatopharyngoplasty or UPPP, Laser-assisted Uvuloplatoplasty or LAUP, Palatal Stiffening Operations or CAPSO, and the Radio-frequency Ablation or Somnoplasty.

Uvulopalatopharyngoplasty or UPPP

This surgery for snoring involves the removal of the uvula and at some cases the tonsils. When removing partially the soft palate, this procedure is also used. This surgical procedure is conducted with the patient given a general anesthetic. Patients who underwent such procedure often experienced severe post-surgical pains. Complications are also observed such as palatal dryness, change in voice, and at times, a partial loss of taste. This is specifically useful for patients whose obstruction is attributed to the sidewalls.

Laser-assisted Uvuloplatoplasty or LAUP

This surgery for snoring is deemed to be safer & less costly than UPPP. This surgical procedure can be repeated to get the required result. It uses laser to vaporize the excess edges of the soft palate and uvula, and performed with either a local or general anesthetic. With this process, the patient still experiences the pains after surgery ? much like UPPP. Since this requires more than one session, the patient is more likely to experience these post-operative pains again and again, until the last session. This has been known to have fewer complications though than UPPP.

Palatal Stiffening Operations or CAPSO

This is a surgery for snoring is less invasive and generally develops lesser complications after operation. Referred to as electrical cautery, it burns the soft palate, which causes it to stiffen. Often performed with local anesthetic, this requires a one-time visit at the hospital as an outpatient. Pain after surgery is found to be similar as well with the above-mentioned procedures.

Radio-frequency Ablation or Somnoplasty.

This procedure shrinks the patient?s soft palate tissue. It is also a less invasive procedure and the controlled lesions it produces have minimal effect on the surrounding tissues. It involves heating the inner tissue, which produces tissue scars beneath the palate?s skin. Lasting for around 20 minutes, this can be done with, as an outpatient. Several sessions are required though, but are less painful as compared to the other surgical procedures.

Before such surgical procedures are done, some surgeons would do Sleep Nasendoscopy to check the patient?s upper airway to determine the degree of obstruction. Sleep Nasendoscopy though is not that widely available and would prove to be costly as well.

Keep in mind that surgery for snoring is a procedure done to address snoring caused by the soft palate. It is conducted to remove excess portions of the soft palate, uvula and the tonsil.

Listen to your doctor?s advice regarding such surgical procedures, and ask which fits your case best ? or if it should ever be done at all. Also, having a surgeon who is experienced in doing such procedures will give you the peace of mind, and the confidence in the success of the surgery.
