Office Hours TUESDAY, WEDNESDAY & FRIDAY 10 am – 6 pm THURSDAY 10 am – 7 pm SATURDAY 10 am – 4 pm SUNDAY & MONDAY Closed Are you suffering from unexplained brain fog, anxiety and depression, headaches, stomach ache, rash or inability to lose weight? “Aren’t we all?” Your symptoms may be due to food allergies and/or sensitivities. Recognition of food sensitivity was first recorded by Hippocrates, who observed that milk could cause stomach upset and hives. Today’s Standard American Diet includes pre-processed foods with additives and even genetic manipulation. These foreign molecules are recognized by the body as invaders and produce an immune modulated assault to protect the body. This inflammatory response may be the source of a multitude of symptoms including those mentioned above. Some foods cause an “allergic response” known as an IgE immune response. These would be the classic hives, flushing, swelling and eczema. Others cause a “delayed response” known as an IgG immune response. These symptoms may occur hours to days after exposure and can include anxiety/depression, joint pain, and a metabolic shift that leads to weight gain. It is believed that both types of responses may play a part in childhood ADHD and learning disabilities. Gluten Intolerance and Celiac Disease are both genetic conditions that result from an over-active immune response combined with impaired gut digestion and permeability. The foods that cause these symptoms commonly include dairy, wheat (gluten), soy, and nuts. If you take all these out of your diet and always eat organic it might make a big difference in how you feel. However, doing so is a major undertaking! The good news is that we can evaluate you for food allergies and sensitivities with a simple blood test. Armed with this information you can more specifically avoid the foods that are known to bother you and start working on improving your digestion and function of your gut lining. If this interests you, schedule an appointment with Dr. Sarna to determine if food sensitivities are the root of your evils! An Investment in Yourself Is The Best Investment You Can Make!

I love who I am now. I just wanted the body I had before I started to develop these little nooks and crannies. Dr. Weiss delivered and I got EXACTLY what I asked for … Me but better! For the first time ever, I agreed to have Botox injections in my forehead, and filler in my laugh lines. I can tell you that the difference in the appearance of my face is astonishing. I feel as if I have taken 5 to 10 years off of my face! –D. L. Transform Yourself Today! –M. K. Nine months ago, I came into Paradise Medspa & Wellness to inquire about weight loss. I met with Dr. Sarna, and we agreed to find out what foods may have been bothering me, and it turns out that I have intolerance to gluten, corn, and dairy. This has changed my life. I had suffered with chronic headaches for years, and this was the first time I was able to have any relief. Because of the changes I have made in my diet, I feel better, have lost 18 lbs, and no longer suffer from debilitating headaches. I STILL can’t wear my skinny jeans … because they are now TOO BIG! Thank you, Paradise Medspa & Wellness, for making me feel (and look) better than I ever have! –T. G. Before I met Dr. Weiss, my self-esteem was low. Whenever I would talk to people, I would always put my hand up to cover my mouth. Now, after the treatments that I received at Paradise Medspa, I have much more confidence in myself and my self-esteem has risen greatly! Dr. Weiss has given me something that I never thought possible…a wrinkle-free face and luscious lips!! Thank you so much. –T. K. Life Coach Corner Ever wonder why you keep making the same bad decisions? Does the Britney Spears line, “Oops, I did it again!”, sound like you? The embarrassment and humiliation at having failed can negatively impact our self esteem. But what if we can try to learn something from each of our mistakes? Find easier ways to get the job done or better ways to respond to others. If you don’t take the time to be introspective and evaluate your ‘mis-steps’, all you’ll be left with are those embarrassing moments, wishing you had made different choices. How can you be more introspective? Journaling is a great way to evaluate your thoughts and explore other possibilities. Calm your mind with meditation, speak to a therapist if you want guidance. Get away - take a vacation, all by yourself! History teaches us that without taking the time to learn from past experiences, we are bound to fall into the same predicaments over and over. If you need help making sense of your history and typical patterns of behavior, call Paradise to schedule an appointment with Elfie Klassen, Certified Life Coach today! We are here to help!! I used to look so exhausted all the time. Not today! With Botox and Juvederm I feel that I have turned back the clock. I am 53 years old and honestly look better than I did at 43. I look like the woman I hoped I would look like as I aged. I believe that Dr. Weiss is an artist. I can whole heartedly recommend Paradise Medspa. –N.

Spring time is high Allergy season in Arizona! Are you suffering from itchy watery eyes, sneezing, itchy throat and sinus congestion? Is your skin irritated with rashes or eczema. Do you get run down and tired every Spring and Fall? You probably have allergies! One helpful tip to avoid the pollens and irritants in the environment is to do regular nasal and sinus rinses with normal saline. You can use a nasal spray bottle or a netty pot. By rinsing in the morning, after being outdoors and before bed you will be rinsing away the irritants you breathe in, preventing them from reaching the respiratory tree and causing you grief. Another tip is to increase the amount of water your drink. The better hydrated you are the better your body will be able to tackle the irritants quickly, thus decreasing your symptoms. The use of probiotics can help balance your immune system and decrease your intolerance to the environment. Acupuncture can also be a great tool to improve your symptoms and prevent the allergic response. Lastly, consider building up your tolerance to the allergen itself by use of sublingual allergy drops. Drops can be compounded for your specific allergy profile. With 2-3 drops under your tongue every day you can significantly diminish your daily allergy symptoms and live a sniffle-free life!
