ACARA BODY SCULPTING CENTER
Coquitlam, BC
Sculpt your entire body in a natural and inexpensive way, achieving beauty without surgical intervention!
Acara Body Sculpting Center brings you the EUROWAVE, the perfect inch loss system. A visible inch loss can be achieved after just one 18-minute treatment, culminating in the reduction of a dress size after ten 18-minute sessions.
The Eurowave utilizes a 400 Hz and 600 Hz pulsating faradic wave, which "works out" the muscle group. The Eurowave works much the same as an isometric exercise. An 18-minute session is completely effortless, and is equivalent to 200 sit-ups!
The Eurowave’s unique "Duty Cycle" allows variation in the depth of penetration of the wave, and in the expansion and contraction of the targeted muscle group. This allows for a variety of additional applications including the successful treatment of back pain and ailments including sciatica, sports injuries, multiple sclerosis, and certain other medical conditions.

Vancouver, BC
Dr. Stewart is the most experienced medical doctor providing Chelation and Detoxification services; Integrative Therapies and alternative therapies to surgery and long-term medications in British Columbia.

We are well equipped and ready to serve your needs if you choose to avoid surgery and/or long-term use of medications.
Your well being is our primary concern
What is "Chelation"?
Chelation (pronounced KEY-LAY-SHUN) is the process by which a metal or mineral (such as lead, mercury, iron, arsenic, aluminum, calcium, etc.) is bonded to another substance in this case EDTA, an amino acid. It is a natural process, basic to life itself. Chelation is one mechanism by which such common substances as aspirin, antibiotics, vitamins, minerals and trace elements work in the body. Haemoglobin, the red pigment in blood which carries oxygen, is a chelate of iron.
Chelation therapy is used for patients with heavy metal poisoning, poor circulation due to arteriosclerosis and conditions related to these primary diagnoses.
While there is no scientific evidence that chelation is a cure for these diseases, symptoms of arthritis, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, psoriasis, high blood pressure, and scleroderma have all been reported to improve with chelation therapy.
In fact, there is no better treatment for scleroderma.

ELEMENTS WELLNESS CENTRE
Vancouver, BC
We are constantly exposed to toxins everyday. These toxins unfortunately can accumulate in our bodies and can lead to various chronic health concerns. Ionic foot baths are an effective way to reduce toxins.
What can Ionic Foot Baths assist in:
• Enhancing the immune system
• Assist in recovery time from injuries and surgery
• Can relieve pain and joint stiffness due to arthritis
• Improves sleep pattern
• Removes heavy metals
• Removes blood clot material
• Improves liver and kidney function
The ionic foot bath is a gentle, relaxing and non-invasive way to increase energy and detoxify. Using water as a conductor, the foot bath infuses each and every cell in your body with vital energy. When provided with extra energy, our bodies easily dump heavy metals, mucous, lymphatic and blood clot material, candida, and other impurities.
The most common benefits reported are: detoxification, reduced inflammation and recovery time, improved liver, kidney, and colon function, as well as improved sleep patterns and increased energy. Live blood cell analysis shows that cells are rounder, more energetic, and full of life after each treatment.
The ionic foot bath is not recommended for pregnant women or while nursing. It is also not recommended for those with pacemakers, heart conditions, metal or organ transplants, those who have open sores on their feet or for those who have consumed alcohol or taken prescription drugs or blood thinners one hour prior to treatment.
Individual sessions are available or bring a friend and enjoy footbaths side by side.
