As some of you may know; my older son got in a motorcycle accident and had a brain injury which caused his left arm and leg to be numb. He has been in Michigan, in and out of rehab centers and has had round the clock nurse’s aid watching him. There has been some improvement every day, and last week he was able to travel to Florida to receive treatments, clear his head and space from ‘round the clock care.’
His wife told me that he had to be watched very carefully; and of course I did my part or thought I did; he get his meds; morning, mid morning, afternoon, late afternoon and bedtime. After we spoke for a while I said, “It’s time to take your meds!” Low and behold the meds were all gone! Seems like he flushed everything down the toilet! He has always been rebellious. His wife thought he was taking his meds for the last six months, but he has been flushing them down the toilet. I didn’t realize that he was doing this until I spoke to him about withdrawal symptoms and that’s when he confessed that he withdrew six month ago! He has always been into alternative meds, as that’s the way he was brought up. We were all vegetarians, and ever took any pharmaceuticals. Homeopathy and vitamins seemed to keep all of us healthy.
He was on conventional meds for the first year after the accident, but weened himself off naturally. His brother flew in from Arizona and they took off for the Keys! Before that; I gave him about a half a dozen treatments! Acupuncture, Ozone therapy, Deep Tissue Work, Homeopathy
and as many Vitamins as I could get into him! I also took him to get some Stem Cell Treatments; which made a big difference!
First; the Stem Cells affect the Brain; and secondly; he believes in that type of Medicine. In the past he was a Body Builder, so now he has a trainer; and as you know our bodies have muscle memory, so he has doubled the weight he can lift in almost a month! That’s a great improvement!
The Acupuncture treatments daily has made a big difference in his gait and has boosted his confidence and made his happier.
Many times after an injured or sickness we fall into depression and feel sorry for ourselves, however; when getting treatments on a regular; it boosts your confidence and moves the energy, fresh blood and oxygen in your body. You don’t become dependent on the treatments like you are with pharmaceuticals.
If you or anyone you know has been suffering from post accident distress or chronic illness, it’s time to look at Alternative treatments that can change your health picture for years to come! Please call today to make an appointment! 305-407-0120.
I wish you the Best in your Health, Wealth and Happiness!
