Massage is better than medications for our aching back?



According to a Seattle-based researchers from the Group Health Research Institute they examined the benefits of relaxation massage if it will really cure our aching back. It was said in the report that a weekly one hour massage will do the trick than drinking medicine. 

Personally I would prefer a massage since its also therapeutic for our stress. The only problem though is that its not everyday that we can afford an hours worth of massage. For me, I actually have a machine at home that massages my back. I actually bought that thing for like 2,000 pesos. Nowadays I don't use it since I have 2 kids that might trample it haha! 

But above that, I think its more than massage that can help us cure our aching backs. You can just practice proper posture since one factor for back ache is improper posture.  

If you want to see the full article from the study you can go here 

So how do you ease the pain of your aching back from a stressful day at work? let me know at the comment box? 

Much Love!

My addictions: My cute yet ferocious dog named John

Shocking isn't it? haha!  Let me introduce to you my dog named John. Believe it or not he had a brother named Lloyd... get it John and Lloyd. Blame my mom for their names LOL But besides from that he is one peculiar kind of dog. He has a mannerism to act adorable one minute but turn annoying after another.  He has been with us for like 5 years or longer. He is a mix of Labrador and Pitbull.  I took that photo a couple of days ago when I was in a trigger happy mode. I took pictures of my niece and my nephew, our newly renovated house and of course my pets. I was actually asking him to look at me and when he did he suddenly yawn. And that is how I had that shot.  He is actually a really nice dog, he is a bit territorial but most dogs are like that. He actually likes my Labrador Retriever named Georgia. I'll let you meet Georgia next time. ^_^ Much Love!  Alice

Product Review: iColor Hair Dye Shampoo

Hello lovelies!  Since the start of the year I told myself I will change my looks more and test things since I am not getting any younger so experimenting would definitely be on top of my list.  With that I've actually started with my hair. I have already gone blonde although that was a little hard to maintain since I remember being told to go back after a number of weeks to have my roots done but never seem to do it because  1. The salon I got it done was quite far from my place.  2. Its still expensive 3. It would damage my hair tremendously I still have qualms about getting my hair colored again professionally so I asked my mom if its much better if I color it myself - she said yes but gave me the low down on the things I have to do...remembering all those information was a toughie but I was able to get a simpler solution with it - this hair dye shampoo~  My mom discovered this actually and asked me to try it on my hair since she knows I need to cove
