Camden Harbour Inn and Spa

Maine is just so lovely this time of year. The air smells crisp, the breeze is cool, and the foliage is a wonderful rainbow of colors. The blur of summer activity is over and it is time to rest and rejuvenate from the hustle and bustle of the season. So, if you are looking for a fun and relaxing getaway, come experience the luxury of the Camden Harbour Inn and Spa.

The Spa offers a wide diversity of therapies, techniques, and treatments, but their specialty is Zero Balancing. What is Zero Balancing®? Zero Balancing® (ZB) is a hands-on body-mind system of therapy that balances the relationship of energy and structure within the bones and tissues of the body. Zero Balancing® uses energy movement to integrate Western medical science with Eastern energy healing traditions into an original, practical, and coherent bodywork skill. Based on principles of nature, ZB promotes internal balance and harmony through the use of informed, skilled touch. Many people initially seek Zero Balancing® to relieve symptoms but continue receiving sessions as their quality of life improves.

Healthy drinking

Have you ever heard of a functional health beverage? What in the world makes a beverage functional? The Answer is xanthones.  Wikipedia defines a xanthone as an organic compound with the molecular formula of C13H8O2. The chemical structure of xanthone forms the central core of a variety of naturally occurring organic compounds. What? In plainer language this means that there are foods known that have a large supply of antioxidants and phytonutrients.

The mangosteen fruit grown in South East Asia has the most xanthones discovered by man to this day. Local folklore calls the mangosteen the queen of fruit. The Legend has it that Queen Victoria would provide knighthood to anyone who could bring back an edible whole mangosteen. The nutritional value of this fruit has been known to help patients with asthma, heart disease, and cancer. The medicine men in Thailand have been grinding the rind and using it as a salve for rashes, burns, and eczema.

Joe Morton traveled to South East Asia and discovered the mangosteen. He soon produced a functional health beverage known as XanGo. XanGo can be used as a preventive. It is suggested that 6 ounces of this juice per day is a great supplement for a healthy lifestyle. The product is 100% natural with no additives and no sugar added. It is a delicious addition to any diet.
