Dome top cages make a great home for your bird as well as a charming accent for your room. When you buy a bird, you need to get the supplies that are essential for its survival. One of the most basic needs of a bird is a clean and comfortable home. This is why a bird cage is at the top of the list of bird supplies. Bird owners should choose what type of cage would be perfect for their bird. Cages come in all shapes and sizes. It is certainly a case of – pardon the idiom – hitting two birds with one stone when your choice also complements your room décor.

Cages are available in different types and styles in the market nowadays. You can go to the pet shop and check out its selection of available cages. However, if you do not know much about cages, you could be overwhelmed and confused by the number of options. Take a moment to find out what qualities you are looking for in a cage before venturing to get one.

One of the popular options for cages for pet birds is the dome top cage. As the name of this cage implies, the dome top bird cage is a vertically rounded cage. Because of its rounded shape, it can be placed in any section of a room without it taking too much floor space the way other deeper and wider bird cages do. The traditional picture of a domed cage is that of a cylindrical cage with a dome roof. However, there are also square or rectangular cages that feature a rounded roof.

The dome at the top of these cages gives more space in which the bird can fly around. As mentioned, this type of cage gives your bird a little more room without taking up any extra floor area. It is especially suitable if your bird likes to climb and fly; such a feature will help in promoting their vitality and health. If you have a noisy and aggressive bird for a pet however, it is better to put it in a larger bird cage wherein it may expand its energy and calm its nerves. Another advantage of dome-top cages is that it gives your bird a great view of the top. Your bird will like being able to check out the action above it. You can even attach a play area on top of the dome for your bird to spend time in. Besides these, cages with a dome top also add style to the setup of your room. Even empty ones are used by non-bird owners to give their rooms a certain air.

If you have decided to buy a dome top cage or want to purchase one from a retailer, you must read pertinent reviews and compare the various rates. You could also choose to shop online. There are many websites available that guide their customers regarding quality, style, color, and prices. Your research will hopefully lead you to a great deal.

Would you really like to feel better? More energy? Sleeping better? Less pain? Here’s how:

1. What about being “Hormone-Free?” Generally a bad idea. Seems like estrogen is always in the news – they often paint it as a “bad idea.” Studies seem to prove it. Fact is – Horse-derived estrogen (Premarin) really really does seem to be a bad idea.

2. Many women are needlessly afraid of “Hormone Replacement Therapy.” (HRT) Every day I see women suffering the negative effects of hysterectomy – “but they saved my ovaries!” – When their misery is self-evident. And much of their troubles is only a few easy steps from cure.

Increased pain-sensitivity. Mood disorders. Sleep disruption. Osteoporosis. Fatigue. Bad sex-life. As an orthopedic surgeon, I also see – their shoulder pain, hand pain, back pain, knee pain is much more difficult to treat. My experience is that pain seems to be magnified when there is not enough estrogen in the system.

3. Plus, Too many doctors and mid-level practitioners fail to understand the difference between synthetic/equine-derived hormones like Premarin and Prempro – both “like” their human counterparts – but not really quite the same thing. Then there are the new human hormones now called “bioidentical” which actually are estradiol and progesterone copies.

The “Prems” are from horse urine, NOT human-derived or synthetic equivalent. And, the studies with “bad Cancer results” from hormone replacement are typically based on those people taking oral animal or horse-derived hormones. Sadly, many doctors (mistakenly) think is “the same” as bioidentical synthetic (human) topical HRT.

4. What about so-called “natural” estrogen replacments found at the health-food store? These soy-based replacements are NOT replacements or even substitutes because they are not bioabsorbable. Your body simply can’t soak them up and use them. That’s why soy-based foods and soymilk like Silk is safe for men and children to take. So don’t make the mistake of going “natural” thinking Soy-estrogen will help you.

5. I’m a big proponent of skin absorption for delivery of medications – especially the powerful pain-relieving benefits of topical non-steroidal anti-inflammatories for treatment of back pain and joint aches and pains. The skin is a great filter and it generally cuts the side effects, improves the safety and is a good – if relatively new- idea.

In just a week or two, bioidentical hormone replacement can have you sleeping better, thinking better, remembering more and cut chronic joint pain like back pain or arthritis significantly.

Just a suggestion: Check out – “Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy” – you want a topical hormone gel to wipe on every night (or dots) – and get yourself back in the fast-lane once again. No guarantees, but I’ve seen it help too many women to ignore.

And if you could use more information about faster topical (wipe-on) pain-relief starting now, I’d like to offer you my help with good answers. I’m Daniel Bullock M.D., a Board-Certified Orthopedic Surgeon and former Senior Team Physician of the U.S. Cycling Team.
