Bob came into my office last week looking like he was in a war zone. He fell 3 or 4 times over the last month. He had a big gauze pad on his leg, a brace on his wrist and there were bruises all over his arms and legs that were raw and bright red. I have known Bob for years and he has always been in good shape. His apartment is on the 22nd floor and every day he use to walk up with down the stairs with no problems. For a guy in his Eighties he was in great shape, with strong legs and a huge breathing capacity!
Now; unfortunately he’s a wreck. Over the last few months he has lost his balance dozens of times and has developed neuropathy in both feet. Watching him walk is painful to see! He looks like he’s 95!
On top of that Bob told me that he’s feeling very old and afraid, and when you are feeling old, guess what? You are old.! If you can’t exercise and move around how you like, the body break down so quickly and the lack of movement causes blood stagnation and that affects our Internal Organs. Then you become a goner on a downward spiral!
Of course he went to see his Medical Doctor and was taken to the Emergency Room multiple times for falling. They shot x-rays of his arms, shoulder and legs, bandaged him up and sent him home! All they told him was to, ‘take it easy, you are getting older and things like this happens.’ They had no fix, no cure, and very few suggestions to get Bob back on his feet.
This happens to older people and they go down the tubes very quickly both Physically and Mentally. It’s a sad situation all around!
After trying the Traditional Medical route; with no success, Bob booked an appointment with me. After going over his Medical History and discussing how we would get him out of this situation, I did Acupuncture on him, a Natural Anti-inflammatory, an Ozone Therapy Treatment and sent him home with a series of Pool Exercises to do daily.
Well, after only a few treatments Bob is feeling so much better! I called him today to check up on him and I am happy to report that Bob is back to walking with a skip in his step and a smile on his face! I’ll see him once or twice a week until the first of the year and he’ll be Right as Rain! I’m elated that I was able to patch my friend back up!
