Online Magazine Reading Innovated and Resurrected
Something was lost when print magazines progressed to digital. But what? The words remain the same? What was lost: the artistic impact of the magazine’s art director – the visuals, the layout, the emotional tagging.
Sure; – everybody sticks a photo at the top of a web article; but that just doesn’t cut it. The magazine experience is lost. Many have tried to recreate this with flip book apps – but these are really just photographs of the entire page, and one has to zoom in and out just to read the text. This is an altogether unsatisfactory and unsatisfying experience.
We at Natural Medicine World created an innovative new experience, regardless of the device used to view it on, and retained the joy of magazine browsing – the visual impact and emotional tagging remains the same. No more zooming in and out!
Thus, the rich and luxurious experience of browsing a quality magazine, is resurrected digitally. We hope you enjoy reading it as much as we have putting it all together!

The Chakras and Energy Healing
Table of Contents ↑|The origins of the ancient science of energy healing are rooted in Hinduism and Buddhism, and date back to the time of the Vedas, four holy books that Hindus believe emerged between 1500 and 1200 BC. All matter is made up of energy, and any deviation from the normal frequency will change the energy levels of the organ or part of the body.
Joint Health – the natural way
Table of Contents ↑|The basic function of any joint is to allow for movement. When joints swell, it’s because fluid has accumulated in the joint. Bleeding in the joints usually follows some form of trauma and micro-trauma can occur due to repeated action of a joint, most frequently the wrist, fingers or elbow.
