By Kim CierechI have been a canine stylist for over 10 years. The most common question I get asked by my human clients is, "How can I stop my dog from getting ear infections?" Not too long ago, other then placing cotton in their ears during maintenance baths, I didn't know.My friends dog Ace was plagued with ear infections and she agreed to allow me to test some holistic products on him. I bought a product that's base was made from tea tree oil. I was familiar with tea tree oil because I bathe many of my canine clients with a tea tree oil shampoo, when their skin is dry or if they are suffering with a minor skin irritation.When the product arrived, we put 7 drops in each of Ace's ears and massaged them a few seconds.

I have found it hard to find a holistic drug treatment center that has the ability or staff to comfortably treat gay men and women. I guess I shouldn’t say the ability, but that has a staff trained. People you can just open up a holistic drug treatment center and effectively treat everyone. Well that just isn’t true. No one drug treatment program is right for everyone and the same holds true for a holistic drug treatment program. Without seeming jaded, not everyone working in a holistic drug treatment center is comfortable treating the GLBT, nor the issues affecting us. We have to deal with sexual orientation, coming out and internalized homophobia. Issues not everyone is familar with. It is my opiniion that if a drug treatment center is not expert in providing a particular ty

I drank and used drugs for many years and to say I needed alcohol rehabilitation was putting it mildly. The problem was I had been in alcohol rehabilitation before and something just didn’t click. As the years went by, I began to hear about holistic alcohol rehabs, which incorporated additional teaching from the holistic world, so I took a look at holistic alcohol rehabilitation programs. I should say, my wife looked at holistic alcohol rehabs. I was too drunk and high most of the time. When I heard these holistic alcohol rehabilitation programs had holistic services such as meditation, yoga etc. I asdi well at least it is different and went on to holistic alcohol rehab.

After being in several addiction treatment programs, meeting with relase each time, I finially decided to try a holistic addiction treatment program, which was gay friendly. Think that was hard to find. It was, but I did. All I wanted in a gay friendly addiction treatment program was a treatment program specializing n “gay issues” because I still was not comfortable with my sexuality. The holistic addiction treatment program was easier. Finially, when I was about to give up I found a holistic addiction treatment program, with an addiction treatment compoent called Freedom Rings. It was perfect for me. It was an all gay addiction treatment program and seemed to provide just the right holistic services. Freedom Rings, the holistic addiction treatment program for the LGBT is locat
