Forums

Lumi (luminous/ light) Grate (from "integrate", to bring together and meld") pivoted as a platform in 2022 to include purchasable items for the home (collectible art) or self (jewelry). I/Mardy attempt to provide key education along the way, as well as enjoyable photographs. Melding old ways (call to order) with new (text, email), and keeping it simple (US Mail) is the foundation. Thank you for checking out the Blog and Products tabs for what essentially serves as an introduction or overview and entertainment as well. I look forward to connecting and providing desired items to consumers.

In my daytime, local, in-person work assisting people in various ways based upon their perceived need to initially contact me, my varied experience allows me to help in a wide variety of ways they don't typically have a point of reference for. One thing leads to another. In 2022 that lead to an "estate" of jewelry, which lead to my being mentored by a credentialed custom jeweler, who is available to assist as needed, to guide, repair and mostly enjoy being involved in jewelry! Thank you for being here, enjoy the offerings.

It began one day when asked to look for furniture for a client's parent who I was assisting navigating being cared for at home by family, to being with professionals in a communal living setting. A painting on canvas practically seemed to call my attention as I was bee-lining towards furniture at a nearby shop. As I come upon "particularly inviting" art, from my standpoint, I will be offering them here. I look forward to hearing from you, if interested.

Lumigrate's overall goal is to to provide valid, progressive, streamlined and FUN information about 'integrative medicine' and to provide leads to other information if people want to study more in depth. Since our launch in early 2009 with videos which pertain to fibromyalgia, the Forums have evolved to amass a bewildering amount of information. So this is the 'starting point' or 'bullseye' to come back to, refer others, etc.

Chronic pain is different than 'acute' pain and that is where much of the problems many have today in having appropriate treatment. Many treatments provided to people by well-meaning providers end up not working and making things worse overall. Doctors are used to treating acute pain. Therapists are used to treating orthopedic not musculo-skeletal and systemically caused pain conditions. Consumer/patients go away feeling angry, distrusting, and 'used and abused' financially and emotionally when this occurs. This forum is to provide information to be utilized in tandem with the medication/pain forum for those who are interested or solo for those who use other strategies for pain remediation.
