About Satori World Medical

With the rising cost of health care within the United States quite apparent, Satori® World Medical offers people an alternative approach to arranging medical treatment. The company, headquartered in San Diego, California, and led by President and CEO Steven Lash, relies on a global network of hospitals to help reduce the cost of health care for individuals, insurers, employers, and financial sponsors. Through its Quality Assurance Program™, Satori World Medical seeks out the finest facilities around the world to minimize the economic burden on patients. The network offers medical services in Thailand, India, Costa Rica, Mexico, Singapore, Canada, and several other countries. With its approach, the company continues to serve as a leader in the globalization of health care. As medical and technological improvements are made throughout the world, many countries can offer advanced medical care without an inflated price. Satori World Medical takes advantage of this reality through its Health & Shared Wealth Program™. The company boasts a savings of 40-80% on surgical procedures compared to traditional domestic options. The cost includes airfare, hospital and physician fees, hotel accommodations, foreign ground transportation, and a personal accident insurance policy for the patient and a companion. Employers can share these savings with their employee (the patient) through options such as depositing a portion of the savings into a Health Reimbursement Account (HRA) or providing meal per diems while the patient is traveling for surgery. Utilizing an HRA allows for reimbursement to an employee for qualified medical expenses and can be compatible with a qualified Health Savings Account or other model. In addition to cost savings, Satori World Medical strives to provide comprehensive customer service. Through the use of technology and highly trained staff, the firm offers patients an uncomplicated route for scheduling and receiving treatment. After a patient registers via its website or calls, a Nurse Patient Advocate from Satori will make contact to discuss the entire medical treatment process. Next, a Travel Care Coordinator will arrange all logistics of travel and the procedure. Once the date has arrived, patients will be greeted at the airport, escorted to the hotel, and checked in to the hospital the following day. Finally, once the procedure is completed and travel is authorized, patients will return home and consult with their local physician.

Boosting endorphins: Feel good all the time



Ever wonder why people do drugs, drink alcohol or coffee, and eat sweets? It’s because doing these things makes people feel really good.

Why? It’s because of endorphins.

Many food types and substances can induce the brain to release endorphins; however, most of these substances are very dangerous, especially once their effects dissipate. Drugs and alcohol, for example, make you feel good—courageous even—after taking them but leave you in a mess when you’re hung over or coming down from a high. In addition, these substances can damage your mind and body.

However, there are ways to induce your brain to release endorphins naturally. Here are some of them:

• Face your fears. The reason why adrenaline junkies do what they do is not because they are fearless, but because facing their fears fills them with euphoria. The greater the fear faced, the stronger the euphoria released.

• Exercise. Exercise induces the brain to release endorphins.. This is why you feel euphoric after a run or a workout and is the reason why some people find exercising quite addicting.

• Laugh like there’s no tomorrow. There is a reason why many people say that laughter is the best medicine: Laughter makes you feel good, and when you feel good, your body gets better faster.
