Pet Health Company, Healthy Brands for Life, Releases Ear Care Solutions for Dogs and Cats

Nixa, MO (PRWEB) March 29, 2013

Ear problems are very common in pets, with most suffering from this condition sometime in their life. If not properly treated, ear problems can progress to painful infections for the animal and costly vet trips for the pet owner. VetraCare Pet has created two new, over-the-counter products, VetraCare Pet Ear Rinse and Vetra Care Pet Ear Wipe, to help clean debris and wax from pets ears, control odors, and reduce soreness and irritation in the ear canal.

According to a survey by Veterinary Pet Insurance, dog ear problems are the second leading cause of veterinary visits. Wet ears can predispose pets to ear infections, making routine cleaning and drying after a bath, swimming or outside play a necessity for healthy ears.

A small amount of light brown waxy secretion in the ear canals is normal, and some ear wax is necessary for the health of the ears. However, the insides of the ear flaps should be cleaned whenever there is an accumulation of wax, dirt, or debris. The VetraCare Pet Ear Wipe was designed specifically for this, allowing pet owners to wipe away harmful buildup and leaving the ear clean and refreshed.

If excessive waxy build-up, itching or odor is present, an over-the-counter ear cleanser, like VetraCare Pet Ear Rinse, can provide relief and soothe irritation. Simply apply a few sprays into the ear canal to help loosen wax or remove debris, massage the base of the ear to spread solution, and gently wipe out excess liquid from the ear canal.

Co-developed by a trauma & burn surgeon and a Ph.D. biologist, VetraCare Pet products work to reduce inflammation and irritation on pets skin, paws and ears by removing harmful bacteria and contaminants while maintaining continued hydration and long lasting protection. VetraCare Pet is different than many pet care products, as the ingredients in VetraCare were selected to not only effectively treat the injury or condition, but also work to improve the overall health of the animal.

VetraCare Pet product line is made in the USA, blended in an FDA regulated facility and built using the same advanced technology as our healthy human skin care products, ensuring every step is done not just to pet standards, but to human standards. This creates the ideal solution for pet skin care and ensures your animal gets safe, effective products.

Pet Health Company, Healthy Brands for Life, Releases Liquid Bandage for Dogs and Cats

Nixa, MO (PRWEB) April 29, 2013

Cuts and scrapes are common on dog and cats, especially pets that spend a lot of time outdoors. When a pet gets a minor cut or abrasion it can often be difficult to get that wound to heal and pets are more susceptible to foreign materials such as fur, dirt or gravel getting into the wound and causing an infection. Dogs and cats dont understand the importance of leaving a wrap or bandage alone therefore conventional bandages are often difficult to use on animals.

The Vetra Care Pet Liquid Bandage was created to be used in place of traditional bandages for easy, gentle application. It utilizes the FDA approved ingredient, Allantoin, to provide a layer of protection to the area and keep bacteria and debris out of the wound. It is ideal for hard to dress areas of the pet or those places where wrapping or a bandage is impractical. Once applied the Vetra Care Pet Liquid Bandage controls moisture around the wound while remaining breathable to speed up healing.

Under the private label agreement, Hugs will offer customers an array of pet products including: anti-itch spray, liquid bandage, first aid spray and ear rinse.

Healthy Brands for Life is excited to enter this partnership with Hugs, says David Hayford, operations manager at Healthy Brands for Life. By offering our products for private labeling we hope to foster growth of small businesses within the pet health industry and create mutually beneficial relationships.

Private labeling is a rapidly growing trend across many industries which allow products to be branded under a specific company name or brand.

Hugs is equally excited about the partnership with Healthy Brand for Life. This allows Hugs to be able to not only offer innovative toys and accessories, but also top quality health care products. We can approach a company that is looking to consolidate vendors and offer a broad range of quality products and make it easier for them to do business.

FootMassageRater.com Reveals Ten Easy Foot Care Tips for Healthy Feet

(PRWEB) June 06, 2013

The feet are some of the most overlooked and neglected parts of our body and should be cared for accordingly. The feet support the body's weight, act as shock absorbers, serve as a lever to propel the body forward and help maintain balance throughout the day. The feet are put under a great amount of pressure. Each step we take exerts a tremendous amount of force upon them. This force is 50% greater than the individual's body weight.

Foot pain is a very common problem. It is estimated that 75% of people in the United States suffer from foot pain at some point in their lives, often leaving the problems untreated. Foot pain can occur because of uncomfortable shoes, old age, ingrown toe nails, standing for long periods and general neglect of the feet. There are many home remedies for foot pain including warm foot baths, self-massage, adjusting diet and purchasing a quality foot massager.

"People need to stop neglecting their tired, aching feet and begin a regimen of proper foot care," says Michael Zuyus, founder of FootMassageRater.com. Here are ten easy foot care tips for healthy feet:

1. Wear Properly Sized Shoes

Improperly fitted shoes can damage the feet, resulting in blisters, sore joints and other problems. To achieve a better fit, shop for shoes later in the day when the feet are the most swollen. Feel around inside the shoe for any seams that might cause blisters. Also, ensure that the heel of the shoe isnt slipping off of the Achilles tendon as this can cause irritation.

2. Wear a Variety of Shoes

Believe it or not, shoes need to rest and dry out completely periodically. Wearing the same shoes every day will not give the shoes a chance to air out. This can lead to the growth of fungus and bacteria and can even cause foot odor.

3. Choose Appropriate Shoes

Many people damage their feet by wearing the wrong shoes. Feet need adequate support and cushioning for specific activities like running, climbing or simply standing all day.

4. Wash Feet Thoroughly

Daily, careful washing can prevent a multitude of foot problems. Be sure to get even those hard to reach places, like between the toes, to prevent the growth of bacteria and stave off infections. Dry the feet thoroughly, including between the toes, every time.

5. Buff Away Calluses and Corns

After the shower, use a pumice stone on corns and calluses. A pumice stone can be picked up at any grocery store for a few dollars, and it can keep the feet looking healthy and feeling great. Rub the stone across any rough, raised patches of skin on the feet, making certain to rub in only one direction to avoid tearing the skin.

6. Use Lotion

Dry, cracked feet can be painful as well as unattractive. Even worse, open skin is much more prone to infection. Moisturized feet are healthy feet. For best results, apply lotion after the pumice stone, then put on socks before going to bed.

7. Maintain Nails

Nail fungus is uncomfortable, and so are ingrown toenails. One of the keys to preventing these problems is properly trimming toenails. Cut them straight across, taking care to not cut off the corners. Cutting off the corners can actually cause ingrown toenails. If the corner of a nail is causing problems, gently file it down.

8. Avoid Going Barefoot

Regardless whether in the locker room, at the pool or a backyard, feet will be protected from a multitude of threats simply by being covered. Feet will less likely to get athletes foot when protected with shoes or sandals. In addition, shoes provide support that keep feet comfortable.

9. Get a Foot Massage

Foot massage is extremely powerful and pleasurable. It reduces stress and produces a state of relaxation. It can also increase blood circulation. As blood is the lifeline for every cell in the body, the feet will feel rejuvenated and cleansed as the blood flow to them increases. Foot massage is restorative, increases energy and can reduce the chances of encountering stress-related diseases.

10. Seek a Podiatrist

Constant foot pain, other than the usual tired ache after a long day, is never normal. If feet are routinely causing pain, look for the advice of a podiatrist to treat any potential problems before they get worse.

Dr. Garber Offers Healthy Advice: Give your Dad the Gift of Sleep for Father's Day

Santa Monica, CA (PRWEB) June 07, 2013

Tiger Woods has said that everything he has heard about new fathers being too busy to sleep is true. The world's top-ranked player said in 2007, that he had received a wealth of advice about fatherhood but the ''one common thread'' about the experience was a lack of sleep.

Its not only the dads of newborns who suffer, fathers of all age children may endure long restless nights of tossing and turning. They have a lot on their minds trying to take care of their families the best way they can. The world is so complicated, many fathers are too stressed to fully relax. It has been reported that over 34% of the U.S. population suffers from some form of sleep disorder.

Dr. Stuart H. Garber, D.C. Ph.D, creator of Dr. Garber's Natural Solutions, was recently interviewed about these disorders for Vitamin Retailer magazine. Sleep deprivation can lead to serious physical health consequences, said Dr. Garber. Regularly catching only a few hours each night can hinder metabolism and alter hormone production in a way that is similar to the effects of aging. Chronic loss may speed the onset or increase the severity of age-related conditions such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, obesity and memory loss.

While occasional restless nights are often normal, prolonged insomnia can interfere with daytime function, and may impair concentration, diminish memory, and increase the risk of substance abuse, motor vehicle accidents, headaches, and depression.

It is hard to help the father of a newborn get a full nights' rest, but there are many ways to help all other dads get through the night without resorting to pharmaceuticals with their long list of side effects. The most common side effects are headache, drowsiness, dizziness, nausea, muscle and joint pain. One popular pharmaceutical was even shown to cause people to sleepwalk into their kitchen, consuming thousands of calories with no memory of it in the morning! Dr. Garber created his own formula that is effective with zero side effects. In fact, his sleep formula is the best selling formula in his product line. Dr. Garber explains how to sleep well in much more detail in this article posted on his website, http://www.drgarbers.com.

Dr. Stuart H. Garber, D.C., Ph.D. has been practicing holistic medicine since 1981. He has lectured to medical, dental, chiropractic and acupuncture groups in the United States, Europe, Asia and the Caribbean. In 1997 Dr. Garber became the first person in the United States to receive a Ph.D. degree in homeopathy.

He is the developer of Dr. Garbers Natural Solutions line of condition specific biotherapy formulas that are sold in Whole Foods Stores in California, other retail outlets here and abroad, through doctors offices, on Amazon.com and on his website. Other remedies in the line include those for anxiety and depression, bone strength, environmental and seasonal support, constipation, female hormonal balance and lung and skin conditions. He practices in Santa Monica, CA where he also conducts research in dietary supplements and homeopathic medicine.

South Bay Vascular Center and Vein Institute Launches Social Media Campaign to Promote Foot Health Awareness, and Gives Tips to Keep Feet Healthy

San Jose, CA (PRWEB) June 08, 2013

South Bay Vascular Center and Vein Institute in San Jose, CA has launched a new campaign via social media focusing on foot health education. The campaign provides the public with simple tips and ideas to care for feet, in order to promote improved health and a better quality of life.

Dr. Polly Kokinos, Dr. Jafar Tay, Dr. John Frusha, and Dr. Kim Rappaport, the four leading vein doctors at South Bay Vascular Center, encourage walking as a way to promote foot health. Walking for thirty minutes five times a week can help encourage blood flow, explains Dr. Kokinos. This lowers the risk of varicose veins, swelling in the feet, and deep vein thrombosis.

Varicose Vein Treatment Options

Varicose veins and spider veins are extremely common in men and women. While spider veins are very small, reddish veins on the surface of the skin, varicose veins are much larger, bulging, tangled veins that may appear bluish in color. Men and women suffer from varicose veins, although women are much more likely to have them.

Today, patients have access to a number of effective varicose vein treatment options. Advancements in technology and medicine have led to the development of effective, minimally invasive treatments that produce optimal results with few side-effects or downtime.

Boston, MA (PRWEB) June 13, 2013

Jordana Szpiro, D.P.M., F.A.C.F.A.S., a member of the American College of Foot and Ankle Surgeons and Shannon Thompson, D.P.M., podiatrists at Boston Common Podiatry, offer the following tips to seniors:

Inspect your feet and between the toes daily checking for dry or cracking skin, corns and calluses, any unusual lesions, discolored or thick nails. Clean and moisturize your feet daily.

Check your shoe size yearly - If the arch collapses or the foot widens shoes that are too tight or not supportive enough can lead to foot pain, ingrown toenails or painful corns.

Warning signs something may be wrong - Burning, tingling or dulled sensation; open sores that appear for no reason; delayed healing of wounds; foot or leg pain after walking short distances or discoloration of the feet or toes.

Diabetic foot care tips - People who have diabetes should take extra care to check shoes and socks for foreign objects before putting them on. Also, check the temperature of soaking or bath water with the hands first to make avoid scalding. Be sure to wear white socks only because the dyes in colored socks can be toxic if absorbed into open wounds and cause infection. Have your shoes sized and fit by a professional and be aware of any changes in sensation or circulation.
