Using BVT(Bee Venom Therapy) for the treatment of MS symptoms and arthritis seems to be like a miracle for some people. This isn't to say that it works for all people, but not all medications prescribed by a persons physician work either. The best part I think about BVT is the fact that there are no known side effects. Whether this type of therapy works for you or not, you have nothing to lose and possibly everything to gain by trying it. I talk to so many people everyday about the benefits of BVT and the products of the hive. Royal Jelly, Pollen, Propolis and Raw Honey. I take these products on a daily basis myself, and I (fortunately) do not suffer from the effects of MS or arthritis, but I do know there are long term benefit to my health by maintaining this regime and being proactive in my health care.

  I met so many wonderful people at this conference.  I became friends with a couple people in particular while there and have had several conversations with them since returning home. We have all decided it would be very beneficial if we were able to hold some meetings where we could invite people to attend and we could discuss the benefits a person can achieve through BVT and the products of the Hive. Sort of like Wellness Awareness Meetings. There will be updates on this web site regarding these meetings real soon. If you have any ideas or suggestions about what you would like to have at these meetings, please feel free to Bee-Mail  (dancingbz@hughes.net) or call us at 541-922-3174.

  I will be attending my second CMAC July 21-24 in Burlington, Vermont. I am ready to learn more and be able to practice some of the new techniques that will be demonstrated. 

  If you are interested in attending a CMAC conference, go to the American Apitherapy Society web site and follow the links to find the next CMAC and when one will be held in your area.
 
  I attended the CMAC in Burlington, Vermont. Burlington is a beautiful city. I regret I did not get to see much of it. I did venture down to Church street and browsed through some of the markets. Oh, and I was lucky enough to get a couple passes for the lunch ferry ride around Lake Champlain. That was awesome! The dinner was fantastic and the sites were breath taking.
As for the CMAC, I was elected to run the webstore for the American Apitherapy Society, which includes running all aspects of the store during each CMAC. So I was quite busy and did not get to mingle with the attendees much, nor get a chance to listen to the wonderful lectures. I did have the opportunity to have dinner with some new people and also when we held a sting session on Friday evening I was able to visit with some people. I think half of the learning from these CMACs is the people we meet and the conversations that are shared. From those conversations, friendships are born. 
Update: I am now the Secretary of The American Apitherapy Society. I am honored to be elected for the position and will do my best. 

The Fall 2006 CMAC will be held in Salt Lake City (The BeeHive State) from September 21-24. For all the details and to get signed up to attend, you can either call me (541) 922-3174, bee mail me dancingbz@hughes.net, or visit the American Apitherapy website at http://www.apitherapy.org.   This conference is going to be a little different from past conferences as it will be teaching a course as well as holding a conference for those who are just interested in being able to get together with fellow Apitherapists and others who are practicing the art of the sting. There are a couple different option to the pricing of the conference this Fall also, so please, take a few minutes and drop by the  AAS (American Apitherapy Society) website and check it out. I will drop a note or two here after I get back and let those of you who were unable to attend, an update. So, take care and stay tuned....
