Nature Deficit Disorder  (NDD)























Nature Deficit Disorder is a term coined by Richard Louv, author of "Last Child In The Woods" whose thesis details that ADD is actually NDD and whose groundbreaking work triggered the International Children & Nature Movement, which promotes health and wellness through spending time in nature.

Physical, mental and emotional health of children is compromised because of  the disconnect between children and nature due to greater city and urban sprawl happening worldwide. 

This shows up in the epidemic of childhood obesity in America, ADD, ADHD, Autism, hypoglycemia and symptoms such as nervousness, irritability, anxiety, confusion, memory loss, headaches, night terror, paranoia, fatigue and depression to name a few.

FLOATING BED THERAPY
Omni-Pendulum or
“Floating Motion" 


 


Rocking is a proven, natural sleep aid.  It is the same safe motion that we felt while gently floating in our mother’s womb. Mothers intuitively know that rocking their babies from head to toe is good for a baby.  

Science has now found that this same calming "floating" motion is good for adults too.




Floating Bed's "vestibular" rocking motion when made to sway from head to toe, provides a gentle, non-impact way to stimulate blood and lymphatic circulation helping to move and cleanse toxins from the body, thereby aiding the body's recovery and healing process post surgery and trauma.  

Doctors say people who are bed-ridden or without enough motion quickly develop serious health problems.  One reason is because the lymphatic system is not getting rid of toxins and waste.  Reducing swelling is a fundamental principle of healing.  Patients are required to get up and move around as soon as possible after surgery even if they are in pain.  

Floating Bed rocking therapy is a painless way to stimulate the lymphatic system, increase blood circulation, reduce swelling and start the detox process.  In minutes, motion decreases back pressure in the circulatory system, and noticeably reduces soreness, aches, back pain and swelling throughout the body.

Lymphatic System & Immune Function

How Does Lymph Affect My Health?

We all know that blood brings nutrients to the cells.  However, fewer people understand that the body’s drainage system, which carries away toxins is the lymphatic system. Because lymphatic circulation is not driven by your heart, it requires motion to function at its best.
 
The lymphatic system plays a major role in our immune system and in the defense of infection and cancer.  Lymph nodes located throughout the body act as filters that contain many lymphocytes or white blood cells that destroy bacteria and viruses in the lymph fluid.


About six pints of this filtered fluid goes back into the lymphatic system. Eventually the lymph fluid makes its way into the thoracic duct, the right lymphatic duct and drains into the subclavian veins and into the heart and blood.

Imagine day dreaming, journaling and falling asleep to the sounds of nature,
birds singing, hawks and wild peacocks calling, horses whinnying, squirrels chattering and smelling the scents of fresh trees, fallen leaves and seasonal flowers while floating above the ground in a cozy teepee shaped Floating Bed suspended from a lovely large oak tree and protected by mosquito netting.
