Go Beyond Muscle Testing with HealthWiggle

It’s fun watching people get healthy with no side effects or overdoses, and the study behind how that happens is fascinating. HealthWiggle, a series of seminars presented by Susan Richter, RN of Next Level Healing of NJ and Dr. Dan Silverstein, MD of Celevitae Medical, was created with the “fun of getting healthy” in mind, yet the level of information is not basic, and would stimulate any advanced student or determined caregiver. This bi-weekly course runs September 27 through November 29, and will be held at 185 Washington Street in Morristown. Early registration is key as space is limited.

HealthWiggle is based on true science—anatomy, physiology, hematology, serology, enzymology—and the effects of food-based nutrition. Participants learn how to mitigate stress responses and the symptoms of dis-ease through analyzing visceral reflexes, 24-hour urinalysis and bio-impedance results. Once a baseline is established, it becomes possible to teach your patient or loved one how to monitor the results of their alternative medicine therapies by “jump points” (a medical term for pain on palpation). Students also learn how to provide macro-nutrients to nourish the body’s eleven systems with the help of enzymes and US grown, organic, raw or frozen foods, and the nutritional expense of drugs and fake foods.

HealthWiggle series fee is $1200, and includes access to HealthWiggle webinars library. Next Level Healing of NJ is located at 166 Franklin Road, Denville. For information contact Susan Richter at 973-586-0626 or [email protected]. NextLevelHealing.com

Tick Talk

Spring officially sprung on March 21. We have turned our clocks ahead. We are looking forward to warm winds, sunny skies and the smell of fresh cut grass. The daffodils and tulips have recently bloomed and we are just starting with the yard work that comes with the warmer weather.  Sadly, another season has started ramping up.  Tick season.

•             The best form of protection is prevention. Educating oneself about tick activity and how our behaviors overlap with tick habitats is the first step.

•             According to the NJ DOH, in 2022 Hunterdon County led the state with a Lyme disease incidence rate of 426 cases per 100,000 people. The fact is ticks spend approximately 90% of their lives not on a host but aggressively searching for one, molting to their next stage or over-wintering. This is why a tick remediation program should be implemented on school grounds where NJ DOH deems high risk for tick exposure and subsequent attachment to human hosts.

•             Governor Murphy has signed a bill that mandates tick education in NJ public schools. See this for the details.  Tick education must now be incorporated into K-12 school curriculum. See link:

•             May is a great month to remind the public that tick activity is in full swing. In New Jersey, there are many tickborne diseases that affect residents, including Anaplasmosis, Babesiosis, Ehrlichiosis, Lyme disease, Powassan, and Spotted Fever Group Rickettsiosis.

•             For years, the focus has mainly been about protecting ourselves from Lyme disease. But other tick-borne diseases are on the rise in Central Jersey. An increase of incidence of Babesia and Anaplasma are sidelining people too. These two pathogens are scary because they effect our blood cells. Babesia affects the red blood cells and Anaplasma effects the white blood cells.

•             Ticks can be infected with more than one pathogen. When you contract Lyme it is possible to contract more than just that one disease. This is called a co-infection. It is super important to pay attention to your symptoms. See link.
