From the Editor:
Cheers all and hope you've has a good productive week.
I had to hang up my spikes this week as I broke my driver last weekend. I guess the timing was fortuitous as we're having scorching heat and there's talk of breaking records. All kinds of things are getting broken around here.
I'm really impressed with the story about the amazing amount of Americans with cancer that use complementary medicine. It's always a little pat on the back to see that what we do works and to get a little public pat on the back for it. It almost a little bit makes up for all the quacks who can't see past the noses on their faces.
If you have any news to brighten my week a little more please pass it on. My email is editor@theacupreneur.com and I love to hear from you!
Have a great weekend!

Greetings Dear Ones!
Relationships are one of the most significant ways to create a full and thriving practice.
First, there are the relationships you have with your clients. They are, or at least can be, a wonderful source of new clients.

Second, is just about everyone else you already know. Make sure those people know what you do, whom you serve and how to contact you!
Third, are the as yet to be established relationships. These are relationships that may be started off entirely by you or through the recommendation of someone you already know.
All good business relationships are started off kinda like dating.
Take your time, be consistent and keep your promises!
To your success!

Quotes to Inspire
"Let us be grateful to people who make us happy,
they are
the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom."
~ Marcel
Proust
"Some of the biggest challenges in
relationships come from
the fact that most people enter a relationship in
order to
get something: they're trying to find someone who's going
to
make them feel good. In reality, the only way a
relationship will last is if
you see your relationship as
a place that you go to give, and not a place
that you go to take."
~ Anthony Robbins
"Everything about
business comes down to PEOPLE.
Where in business can we escape the impact of
human care,
human creativity, human commitment, human frustration,
and
human despair? There is no reason for anything in
business to exist if it
does not serve the needs of people."
~ Bruce
Cryer
"Work is love made visible.
And if you cannot work with
love but only with distaste,
it is better that you should leave your work
and
sit at the gate of the temple and take alms of those who work with
joy."
~ Kahlil Gibran
News of Interest! Dry needles spur natural healing - Dry needling is a treatment
where fine needles are inserted into the skin and tissues at certain points of
the body for therapeutic purposes, such as pain relief, improvement in physical
function and stimulation of natural healing. Unlike injections given by
physicians or nurses, no substance or drug is injected into the body and hence
the term "dry" needling. The needles are generally stainless steel, very thin,
flexible, and rounded, but sharp at the tip. Two widely practiced forms of dry
needling include 'acupuncture' and 'intramuscular stimulation (IMS)'.
Half US cancer patients use complementary medicine - Nearly
half of cancer patients use complementary and alternative therapies, finds the
American Cancer Society. The study, in the journal Cancer, is one of the first
to examine use of such therapies beyond the treatment phase of oncological
diseases. Researchers looked at use of complementary and alternative therapies
by 4139 people with one of ten cancers surveyed 10 to 24 months after diagnosis.
They were selected randomly from cancer registries and asked questions by mail
and telephone. Veterinarian advocates acupuncture - When Huisheng Xie held
his first symposium in Reddick about alternative veterinary medicine, only 10
veterinarians made the trip to his Chi Institute for traditional Chinese
medicine and acupuncture. Now, more than 100 veterinarians pack his classrooms,
making the trek from as far away as Japan and Europe. There is a waiting list of
at least 30 veterinarians wanting to learn how to incorporate Western veterinary
medicine with traditional Chinese veterinarian care, he
said. Canadian coach happy to get the needle - Canadian gymnastics
team coach Tony Smith was amazed yesterday when his back pain vanished after
just one acupuncture session at the Olympic Village clinic. "It really does
work," he said. "I will definitely recommend it to my athletes." Smith, who has
long suffered from lower back pain, had just about given up hope after none of
the various treatments he tried made any difference. "I thought I should give
Chinese acupuncture a try, and found it really relieves the pain," he said.
Can hypnosis help to slow dementia? - Each week it seems new
research sheds more light on elderly mental illness and clinical trials offer
hope of new treatments, yet recent studies have suggested dementia sufferers may
benefit from more unconventional methods. One recent development has seen
elderly residents in some Welsh care homes given Nintendo Wii games, similar to
those used in schools to encourage children to exercise, the BBC reports.Neath
Port Talbot council hopes the games consoles will help to keep residents
"mentally alert".Now, researchers at the University of Liverpool have found that
effects of dementia can be slowed down through hypnosis, helping to improve the
quality of life for those with the
condition. Upcoming
