PuppyMama Loves Vitality High Energy


Targeted nutrition is Vitality High Energy dog food. It encompasses a wider range when it comes to nutritional intake compared to other dog food that is for just for one special needs like that for senior dogs. This is because Vitality High Energy is for show dogs, working dogs, pregnant and nursing dogs, and puppies, too.

Vitality High Energy dog food is one that makes the diff. My pets love it, as you can see the PuppyMama devouring this dog food in the video and wanting more. Another reason why I choose Vitality is that it makes buying dog food much easier for me is due to the fact that I have 3 dogs, one that is a senior, the PuppyMama, and a puppy. It isn't written in the package that it is good for senior dogs, but I do use this brand for my senior pet.

Thanks to Vitality High Energy, the miracle of puppies did happen. One Monday morning, we got the shock of our lives when the PuppyMama and the PuppyDaddy were locked in place. We brought the PuppyMama dog to the vet who said the chances are low that our dog was pregnant as my senior dog is over 12 years of age. Our concern was that the PuppyDaddy was a medium sized dog while the PuppyMama was small sized, and there might be birthing issues. 
And, one night, my dog gave birth, at home, to 3 beautiful and healthy puppies, home birth, by God's loving grace and mercy, all went well. T

PMCM Events Management Blocked Screening of Doctor Strange

With Tin Gonzaga of TodayOnline

No long lines, raffle prizes, coffee and snacks, the blocked screening of PMCM Events Management for Doctor Strange makes watching movies a better experience. No one likes the hassle that comes with watching a movie such as having to line up to buy tickets and when you do watch a blocked screening, you get to view the movie when it comes out in the theaters, without the common problems you encounter when wanting to watch a movie. 

Today Online blogger, Tin Gonzaga, and I  were invited by the Light Network, which is a media partner of PMCM Events Mangement.  This blocked screening
 was held at Resorts World Manila. We had comfy couches to sit on just outside the Cinema 3, and I noted that the other cinemas that were showing the same movie had long lines, while ours had double lines and it was just to enter, as the pre-booked tickets were given to us at the registration table along with a raffle number. 

Two lines were formed and there was no rush, as all was ready, and we got to sit on our designated chairs. You can see more in my video:



Before the movie started there were 10 prizes were given away. These were loot bags from the various sponsors and WhenInManila, a reputable blog site, was the ones who were in charge of the giveaways. There was also a "look for the piece of paper under your chair" to win a prize and that was a lot of fun. 

The comfort of the classy Resort World cinema is great. And, the movie watching experience is one that has the viewing made better by the rice terraces like chairs, as it does eliminate the hassle of having to see too many heads directly in front of you if you are not that tall, like me. After the movie, all of the audience was given generous food and beverages like Nescafe coffee in tetra bricks, new kinds of Jack and Jill candy, food bars, and even cup noodles. 

PMCM Events Management has regularly has blocked screening movies, and if you want the same, no-hassle, more fun movie watching experience, you may access their Facebook page or visit the PMCM Events Management website to learn more

What I like is the overall treatment, which is not just skin deep, and La Jeunesse keeping in mind that health is vital to becoming more beautiful. 


Take a look inside and join me for a brief tour:




La Jeunesse services: 
JEUNNE VIE (Platelet Rich Plasma)

Platelet Rich Plasma utilizes the capability of your own blood to enhance the overall texture and tone of your skin, realistically. It is a natural avenue to improving the condition of your skin by using your own tissue growth factors and healing properties to restore the skin by enhancing blood supply and stimulating collagen structure. The after effect of which ameliorates and progresses overtime. Once tissue has been regenerated and remodeled, that benefit may be permanent.

Studies show that PRP aids in;

  • Eliminating skin wrinkles and a safe alternative to Botox
  • Reverses hair loss by promoting hair growth and strengthens hair follicles
  • Grows new cells and thicker dermis thus rejuvenates skin, inside out
  • Soften sun damage and aging skin issues
  • Accelerates growth factors for cell regeneration



ASCEND (Facelift Ultra)
This state of the art non-surgical lifting procedure is the latest cutting-edge technology for an immediate long lasting lift designed to recreate a sculptured, smooth, and silky-V-SHAPE face. Continuous collagen synthesis stimulation by ultra-fine polydioxanne (PDO) threads inserted under skin via “parallel vector technique” results in heightened rejuvenated skin. The fine threads adhere to the sagging tissue and actuate the proliferation of collagen and elastic collagen in the derma layer. Ultra V-LIFT treatment helps naturally to produce skin tightening effects and lifting at the same time. Increase in collagen synthesis Skin rejuvenation and tightening Improve skin structure and skin tone V-shape silhouette and sharpen features
Warts Removal
Warts are small, self-limited tumors caused by Human Papillomavirus (HPV) infection. Although warts are considered contagious, it is not uncommon for just one family member to have them. In addition, they often affect just one part of the body but they can be spread by picking them. For the removal of the wart C02 Laser is a tool of first choice, a device that emits high energy laser light which produces coagulation of the blood vessels & necrosis of the wart without damage to the surrounding tissue & optimizing the recovery of the treated area, while reducing the risk of bleeding & infection. The resulting scabs clear in 2 to 3 days.

Syringoma Removal
Syringoma is a non-cancerous bump or clusters of bumps that is caused by an overgrowth of cells within the sweat glands (eccrine), can be inherited and often runs in families. Treatment of Periorbital Syringoma involves the removal of lesions by C02 laser, with minimal scarring and prevention of recurrence. As the skin is very thin around the eyes, the treatment is done very carefully and gradually, usually in two sessions. The first session is to clear most or all of the lumps, and the 2nd is to make sure that the small fractions and deep part of the gland that resurfaced are eliminated.

Milia Removal
When the skin cells are not completely shed, keratin builds up beneath the epidermis forming a wall that is 1 to 3 millimeters in diameter. The rounded bump is referred to as milium (plural, milia) and often appears around the eyes & cheeks as raised bumps that are sometimes mistaken for white heads. Milia seed removal by C02 laser is the easiest and fastest without scarring. Some milia may need 2 or 3 treatment sessions, spaced 1 month apart.

Acne Treatment Program
Acne may be attributed to genetics or hormonal imbalance. Contributing factors, or acne triggers, include lifestyle choices, such as diet, sleep pattern, hygiene, or stress. When skin does not exfoliate as it should, dead cells build up on the skin surface and inside the pore. Dead cells mix with trapped oil and pores become clogged, resulting in blackheads and whiteheads. All cases of acne are not created equal, and neither are all acne treatments.
Although all acne has its roots in the same process, not all acne is equally severe and not all cases of acne will respond to the same types of treatment. A recommendation then for acne skin care is a combination of oral medication, topical medicines and treatments that prevent acne infections and scarring. A less inflammatory and toxic diet is highly recommended.

Deep Cleansing Facials
Deep pore facial treatments are tailored to each client’s need. There are a variety of skin care conditions and needs and certain products benefit different skin conditions. Facial cleansing begins with either a facial scrub, or a gentle cleanser that contain AHAs. Once the skin is cleansed, the Aesthetician begins the exfoliation process which dissolves the top layer of the skin cells.
Enzymes that are common in facial exfoliation are activated by steam. Steam helps to open the pores and relax the client as well, once the skin is exfoliated and the pores are open, the Aesthetician will begin Extractions of comedones from the pores. To complete the facial service, a facial mask is applied. Facial masks come in many different varieties and specify in different skin care concerns. A moisturizer or sun block then is applied after the mask is removed. It is important to maintain this regimen every 6-8 weeks for optimal results.
Meal Planning
Meal planning is a huge part of the fat loss equation, it is the backbone. It is an awareness of the various nutrients in food, their functions, and requirement in the body. It is essential to make sure that you are eating the right food in the right quantities, without starvation. By guiding clients to make healthy dietary changes that ensures nutritional adequacy of the food they eat everyday that provide weight loss without depriving the body of nutrients. The knowledge of recommended dietary allowances and composition of food is necessary for the selection of a sufficient diet by translating the nutritional needs into kinds and amounts of food that we should eat. Weight loss is 70% what we eat and 30% what we do.

Life and Wellness Coaching
Just about everyone has a vision of his/her ideal weight and health; it is quite difficult to make it a reality for some. Then what you need is a wellness coach. Just like the people who push athletes to greatness in sports, life and wellness coaches push their clients to find satisfaction from their lifestyle. Helping clients understand themselves and making them analyze the factors that contribute to their weight gain through self awareness. We then guide our clients find the motivation and tools to get to their physical health goals.
Those goals include:
  • Lose unwanted pounds
  • Eat healthy and better food
  • Maintain weight loss and healthy youthful skin

Intravenous-L-Carnitine
L-Carnitine is a naturally occurring amino acid which plays a vital role in the metabolism of the fat. It functions as a transporter of fatty acids into the mitochondria, the metabolic furnace of the cell. Some people, however, may not have enough carnitine because their bodies cannot make enough or can’t transport it into tissues so it can be used. L-Carnitine can be taken intravenously either by normal injection or using a butterfly. It enhances the body’s ability to metabolize fat thereby enhancing energy levels. This means faster muscle building and fat burning resulting in weight loss. It also improves heart, brain function, and muscular coordination. It is a powerful anti-oxidant that helps our bodies to get rid of toxins.

Mesotherapy
The French-imported medical technique developed in 1952 by Dr. Michell Pistore, involves the injection of small amounts of various medication into the mesoderm, the layer of fat and connective tissue under the skin. When those small amounts of medication are injected into the mesoderm, underlying fat is melted. Mesotherapy treatment is a non-surgical cosmetic solution aimed at diminishing problem areas in the body such as cellulite, excess weight, body contouring, and face/neck rejuvenation. It is administered via numerous injections containing various types of FDA approved medicines, vitamins, and minerals. Mesotherapy is painless, causes virtually no scarring, although swelling and bruising may appear in the area for a few days.
Benefits of Mesotherapy
  • Fat reduction/ Weight loss
  • Cellulite reduction
  • Lower blepharoplasty
  • Facial rejuvenation

ULTRASCULPT (Lipocavitation)
Lipo Cavitation involves the delivery of ultra sonic waves that “separate” fat cells for removal. Medical literatures indicate that ultrasonic waves in effective cavitation treatments lead to “bursting” of fat cells.
It is a non-invasive treatment which aids in the reduction of localized fat deposits. By using leading technology it converts fat cells into liquid which can then be naturally drained by the body’s own natural filtration system. Generally, one fat cavitation treatment lasts 25-30mins where a single part of the body is treated.
Cavitation is not a method to lose weight but to reshape the body. It is particularly indicated for the reduction of adiposity, the famous “love handles” that won’t go away with diet and exercise.

Lipo Cryoporation
Reduce local adiposities by means of a combined, regulated, and controlled heat extraction and vacuum in a single therapy known as Lipocryolysis. It reduces the epidermic temperature up to 3, 1 ℃ an absolute safe temperature that takes care of epidermal, dermal, and every surrounding tissue. With the 3, 1 ℃, in epidermis during the 25 minutes or more, an intra-adipositary temperature below 10, 2 ℃ will be achieved. At these temperatures crystallization of saturated fatty acids inside adipocytes is achieved. And these unleash the apoptic stimuli that will finally destroy the fat cell in the incoming days or weeks. A typical fat loss in the treated area is 20%-40%. This treatment is best suited to pockets of fat, such as “love handles”.

CONTEUR ADVANCE (Tripolar RF)
Tripollar technology painlessly delivers focused and optimal radio-frequency (RF) energy to the skin surface and to sub-cutaneous fat layers. Tripollar works by emitting controlled radio frequency energy via electrodes directly onto the skin surface of the treated area as well as the subcutaneous fat layers beneath it.
The required energy can be accurately applied on the facial and body areas and penetrate deeply as needed so as to remove excess fat without harming nearby tissues. The stimulation of collagen rebirth results in the shrinking of fat cells, thus reducing the appearance of cellulite. Tripoli RF for skin tightening and cellulite reduction can be achieved in one treatment. It penetrates the skin layers to selectively heat the skin tissue and the extra-cellular matrix (ECM) where the collagen fibers are embedded.
Collagen Treatment
Collagen is found naturally in human skin layer for scaffolding our skin structures. It provides support, and gives the young, firm, smooth skin. With age, the skin loses the ability to produce more collagen and hence lost of elasticity, appearance of wrinkles and fine lines occurred. The benefits derived from injectable collagen are;
  • To smooth out wrinkles and fine lines around the area of eyes, face, chin & body skin.
  • To increase volume of lips
  • To elevate scars and depression
  • Smoothens and firms skin
  • Increase body immune system
  • Brighter complexion, prevents scurvy
  • Fade away scars & dark spots
  • Reduces facial and skin fine lines or wrinkles

Mechanical Dermabrasion
Dermabrasion is skin resurfacing procedure that uses a rapidly rotating device to sand the outer layers of the skin. It produces substantial changes in the appearance of the skin by carefully controlling the depth of skin damage. This produces a wound that heals in a manner that is cosmetically superior to the previous state of the skin. Dermabrasion is best for; Acne scarring, Traumatic Scars, Keloids, Wrinkles, Tattoo Removal. This procedure makes way for a new, smoother layer of skin to replace the skin that’s been treated.

Micro Dermabrasion
Micro dermabrasion works on all skin types and tones. It makes subtle changes, preventing skin color change or scarring. It is not suited for deeper problems such as scars, stretch marks, wrinkles or deep acne scars. With micro dermabrasion, there is less downtime and it does not require surgery or anesthetics. Tiny crystals are sprayed onto the skin to gently remove the outer layer of the skin. It is basically an exfoliation and skin rejuvenation procedure that leaves skin looking brighter and feeling softer.

CELANU (Fractional Needling)
Sagging cheeks, fine lines on the face, hard and tough scars, acne pits, enlarged pores and stretch marks can be minimized quickly and easily through fractional needling. The method takes seconds to make hundreds of tiny puncture wounds in the skin. Bio-Active hyaluronic acid or another active agent is then injected through these punctures. It stimulates the skin’s own regenerative properties while using fractional cartridge to actively inject hyaluronic acid into the skin. The Fractional Needle is most effective in treating;
  • Fine lines around the mouth, cheeks, neck & cleavage area
  • Scars
  • Wrinkles & light pigmentation
The fractional technique is more effective in treating poor circulation tissue structure. It powerfully stimulates the circulation, often causing the minute punctured wounds they create to immediately fill up with blood. The introduction of blood back into the tissue ensures the formation of essential skin structures during the healing process, such as capillaries and pores. As a consequence, the epidermis returns to proper functioning, with color returning as a result of renewed pigment production.

ND YAG Laser
ND YAG Laser work by emitting a wavelength of high energy light, which when focused on a certain skin condition will create heat and destroy diseased cells. The following skin disorders can be treated with ND Yag Laser beams.
Vascular Lesions;
  • Spider and thread veins in the face and legs
  • Capillary vascular malformations (vascular birth marks)
  • Varicose veins and facial veins
  • Hemangioma’s
Pigmented Lesions;

  • Naevus of OTA, Naevus of ITO Hori
  • Naevus and Cafe-au-a-lait-macules
  • Light pulses target melanin at variable depth on or on the skin. Hair Removal (effective for dark, brown, black hair)
  • Tattoo Removal
  • Ony Chomycosis
  • Wrinkles in photo-aged skin
  • Treatment of Active Acne Infections
  • Acne Scars

MANILA, Philippines - Inspired by images and colors that beautifully reflect how Chinese traditions and cultures have been embedded in the everyday lives of Filipinos, a group of photographers used their skills to capture images that convey the depth of this relationship. Apart from the noodles, lanterns and fireworks that have become part of Filipino traditions, the Chinese influence can be felt in just about every aspect of the Filipino way of life down the generations. Armed with their cameras, these photographers captured vignettes of this dynamic relationship.

As a living representation of this phenomenon, the Federation of Filipino Chinese Chambers of Commerce and Industry, Inc. (FFCCCII), in cooperation with the Camera Club of the Philippines (CCP), recently launched an online photo contest that aimed to promote the ever-changing Filipino-Chinese culture. Entitled “Connected Community” it perfectly encapsulated the Filipino-Chinese ties. “Connections” loosely translates to guan xi, a relationship of one person or party to another with obligation built overtime or simply—reciprocity. 
The online photography competition ran from 8th of August 2016 until 16th of October 2016. It garnered three hundred entries from photographers all over the Philippines.

“We were amazed at the talent and artistry of the winners in capturing the theme, Connected Community,” said FFCCCII President Angel Ngu. “Through this competition, the Filipino-Chinese ties really stood out. The photographers went beyond the obvious Chinese elements. Each photo that made it into the finals really had a compelling story to tell.” 

“The entries are all works of art, and serve as a testament to the special bond between the Filipino and Chinese people. Each image showed how deeply interwoven Filipino-Chinese culture is, and will continue to be, in the generations to come,” said CCP President Philip Clayton Yu.
