Sacred Mountain Botanical Ancient Sea Salt Treasures with Magnesium

“If  I could add just one thing to our water supply that would be beneficial to everyone, that is very deficient these days it would MAGNESIUM”.  Pamela Alboher-Ray, Ph.D., Certified Clinical Nutritionist and owner of North Star.

The secrets of ancient beauties, Cleopatra and Queen of Shebah, include ancient mineral salts including Dead Sea Salts. Our Magnesium Gel provides easy daily application of these ancient salts rich in natural therapeutic minerals. Doctors have long recommended bathing in the famous Dead Sea to ease muscle soreness, joint stiffness, and relieve skin conditions, highly prized for over 2000 years are especially high in magnesium and potassium. These valuable minerals help regulate fluid balance, improve circulation, and replenish skin and joints.According to Dr. Norman Shealy, every known illness is associated with a magnesium deficiency and lower levels of the hormone DHEA.  DHEA is known as our health and youth hormone. When DHEA is low, magnesium is also low. Dr. Shealy reports magnesium and DHEA work together, and he reports applying magnesium externally can raise intercellular magnesium, and in turn raises DHEA, which is a natural safe way to raise the body’s magnesium and DHEA levels. Magnesium is one of the most important minerals in the body, activating over 300 different processes in your body including digestion, energy production, muscle function, bone formation, creation of new cells, activating B vitamins, muscle relaxation, heart, kidneys, adrenals, brain, and nervous system. Magnesium levels are very deficient in America. Soil throughout the world is deficient in magnesium and most foods in America have almost no magnesium. As a single essential nutrient, lack of magnesium may be responsible for more disease than any other nutritional deficiency.  

These remarkable therapeutic ancient salts high in magnesium are blended with natural herbs, flowers, and medical grade essential oils and become the basis for our skin gel, created for your health and pleasure. Regular use of this gel enhances skin elasticity, relieves inflammation and bruises, and boosts circulation and cell rejuvenation. Transform your bathroom into a health and beauty spa. Many people report this remarkable product offers help in promoting energy and feelings of happiness. The cell rejuvenating qualities of our herbs, essential oils and salts promote healthy skin health and youthful appearance and are formulated with the very best ingredients available enhancing physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual balance.

Ion Foot Cleanse

North Star Health Center

Recharge Your Body’s Battery with the B.E.S.T. Energy Spa

The B.E.S.T. (Bio-Electric Stimulating Technique) energy spa is a natural health device that is a simple and powerful way to cleanse and detoxify your body on a cellular level.

Today we are exposed to the greatest load of toxic material in the history of our planet.  To maintain good health it is essential to detoxify our body periodically from chemicals, preservative, additives, herbicides and pesticides that are ever present in our air, water, and food.  These chemical toxins store in joints, organs, arteries, nerves and tissues.  As chemicals are in the cells then the cells are unable to perform at maximum function setting the stage for infections, allergies, immune dysfunction and disease to flourish.

How does this foot bath work? The B.E.S.T. energy spa gives the water and our bodies an ion charge and energizes on a cellular level and helps the body release waste products easier.  Through osmosis these toxins are drawn out of the body through the pores of your feet.  At the end of a session the footbath water will be discolored, and some of this discoloration is minerals in the water and some is the release from skin. The color changes in the water will vary between clients and between sessions, and it may change a lot, it may change very little.  This is normal.   The machine is working fine and the body will be absorbing energy.  When slight color changes occur, the body may choose to detox through the urinary system and or colon rather than through the lymph system vial the skin during a foot bath session.
How Is An Ion Cleanse Session given? The person receiving the session relaxes comfortably while their feet are bathed in a container of warm ionized water.
Colors and Objects in the Water. Many colors and objects appear in the water during the session. These colors are caused by the reaction between the toxins and particles in the water, the metals in the array, and the toxins,  being drawn out. The color produced by these reactions varies from one geographic region to another. As a rule, these “regional toxins” contribute to 20-40% of the residues found in the water, the remaining 60-80% are believed to be toxins pulled from the body. The water based toxins do not stick to the side of the bucket and array, however the substances pulled from the body will form a sticky ring around the bucket.

This system re-balances and realigns the energy meridians in the body.  The most this machine can be used is once every 2 days for 30 days, then 21 days rest from water bath and then a schedule can be resumed.  Individuals that are pregnant should avoid using this system as well as anyone with an organ transplant or battery operated implants, such as a pacemaker.  Individuals who are taking prescriptive medication should always consult a physician first.

We are finding benefit from using this machine just once and also used in a series for 14-30 days.

Calendula Petals: Herbal Sunshine
One of the key ingredients in our Golden Healing Salve is calendula flowers. We will soon have available to purchase online. Currently available in our store.
This cheerful flower is an easy to grow annual, member of the Aster Family and widely cultivated for its beauty. The golden-orange flowers look like a piece of sun fallen to earth, and these luminous blossoms are soft with flowers that are vigorous in blooming, and strongly associated with the feminine life-nurturing element.  Calendula is believed to comfort and strengthen the heart which is why is so widely grown and used, now and for centuries.  It is one of the most common herbs growing in people’s gardens throughout North America and Europe, and easily self seeds itself.  They will also continue to bloom after frost.  The old English practice of putting Calendula flowers in soup in the winter because it would help increase resistance to colds and fevers, since England has a damp winter with little sunlight.  Maybe it would also be helpful for Seasonal Affective Disorder Syndrome, as I always feel better when drinking the tea or adding petals to soup.   Calendula flowers have been used on injuries to reduce inflammation and as an antiseptic against infection.  It is ideal for delicate skin of infants and children, and is widely used in many natural body care products. Calendula bestows a calming, quieting touch, and has also been used as a remedy for a variety of skin problems ranging from skin ulcerations to eczema.  Externally applied to the ear, it has been reported to alleviate pain and discomfort from an earache. Taken internally, it may aid in eliminating fever, soothing a festering ulcer, and relieving discomfort of menstrual cramps.  Calendula is considered by many to be an effective detoxifying herb that can help with the toxicity associated many severe fevers and infections. Calendula is also widely recognized as a cleanser for the liver, gallbladder, and other organs. To make calendula tea simply pour 8 oz of boiling water over 1-2 teaspoons of calendula flowers and let sit for 15 minutes. Calendula tea may be taken 3 times per day. Also can be added to soup.

  • Calendula salve for external application.  Bake 1 oz dried or fresh flowers / leaves with 1 oz olive oil. 160 degrees for 2 hours.

Aromatherapy Uses

MASSAGE WITH ESSENTIAL OILS
Enjoy this most effective method of using the oils, combining their properties with the therapeutic power of touch. The oils are best diluted with carrier oil, (see carrier oils), such as grapeseed, sweet almond or peach kernel. A dilution of 3% essential oil to carrier oil is a recommended starting point. (Less if using on sensitive skin such as babies (1 drop in 2 oz carrier oil for babies ). This is approximately one drop essential oil to two ml of carrier oil. (6 drops in two teaspoonfuls). And less can be definitely more!
BATHS
Using oils in baths is a simple, effective and pleasant way to relax and receive the therapeutic effects. – Water itself has therapeutic value which enhances the powers of the oils. To use, add 6 to 10 drops of essential oil onto sea salt or into a tablespoon of carrier oil, to the surface of the water which has already been run, then immerse yourself for about 20 minutes, whilst you inhale the vapor. (Again reduce the amount of oils used in baths for babies).
COMPRESSES AND TOWELS FOR FACIAL STEAMS
Add 5 to 10 drops of essential oil to 100ml of warm water then soak a piece of clean cotton in the water, wring out the excess and place the cloth on sore muscles or your face.
INHALATIONS
Add 5 to 10 drops of essential oil into a bowl of steaming water, then place a towel over your head and the bowl and inhale the vapor for a few minutes.
All essential oils are antiseptic and evaporate easily, so they make very good air-fresheners. Different oils create different atmospheres, so experiment! For example, relaxing Sandalwood or Clary Sage are good for parties; or Peppermint and Ylang Ylang, clears your mind for good focus. North Star offers many burners and diffusers, to vaporizer light bulb rings and specially made vaporizer bowls which sit above candle holders. This is a good way of dispersing essential oils.
PERFUMES
Make your own distinctive “Natural” perfume by blending different oils. (Many commercial perfumes use synthetic concoctions for their scent.) Experimenting with different combinations, which can be mixed with a carrier oil.
STORING ESSENTIAL OILS
Because essential oils are affected by sunlight they should be sold and stored in dark glass bottles, with stoppered caps. Make sure that the cap is on securely and the bottle stored up-right in a cool dark place. The oils should be stored out of sight and the touch of children. Remember that children, especially small ones, are very inquisitive. Good Essential oils should keep for several years if properly stored, though the oils of orange, lemon and lime have a shorter life span. Patchouli actually gets better as it ages.
