A
a B b C Chelation therapy has been used since the end of World War II. It was found to remove heavy metals from the body, and as a side bonus, it causes the reduction of chest pain or angina in these patients. By removing the heavy metals, we are causing a loss of free radicals and detoxification. This safe and effective non-surgical treatment can produce collateral or branch circulation to the heart, causing more oxygen to perfuse through the heart. D Diagnostic tests are needed to find the problems causing our diseases are not part of the normal testing profiles. As an example, the stool analysis is very important in determining pathology, cell analysis to determine minerals present, amino acid evaluation of the body to determine deficiencies in the body, and lastly the Bowen test for lyme disease. E e F f G g H Hormone Imbalance Declining hormone levels are associated with the aging process, restoring optimal hormone levels are key to peak performance, a sense of well being, and youthful appearance. Only natural hormones are used to replace the low levels found. Also, they are measured to balance the proper amount that the patients need. Some of these hormones are natural thyroid, progesterone, hydrocortisone, just to name a few. They must be balanced one with the other to create a feeling of well being. Diseases commonly seen in hormone imbalance are loss of libido, menopausal symptoms, vaginal dryness, fatigue, insomnia and depression, just to name some of the problems. I i J j K k L l M Malabsorption syndrome Some patients are deficient in nutrients and electrolytes due to the poor absorption through the intestinal lining. If the intestine is inflamed, injured, allergic or imbalanced it will be unable to give you the proper nutrition necessary for you to come back to yourself. Mercury has become a major cause of toxicity in the United States. With the poisoning of the fish population and the use of amalgam fillings in a vast number of the population, people are beginning to suffer major neurological problems. Diseases like MS, Alzheimer's Dx., chronic fatigue syndrome, allergy, immune deficiency, and many other diseases may have a component of mercury toxicity. Mercury poisoning can be handled by using DMPS and other methods of detoxification to bring the patients back to a normal and balanced life. Mesotherapy can take years of your life and give your skin a soft and beautiful result. As an alternative to liposuction and other cosmetic procedures, mesotherapy is becoming the method for many women to remove cellulite and weight loss. Mesotherapy can remove unwanted wrinkles. specially targeted areas can be treated by Mesotherapy to contour the body. Men and women will be able to return to the shape they have only been dreaming about. N n O WHAT IS AN OSTEOPATHIC PHYSICIAN?
Osteopathic physicians can offer you more...
Did you know that Doctors of Osteopathic Medicine (D.O.) and Allopathic Physicians (M.D.) are the only types of complete physicians in the United States?
Both types of doctors are licensed to prescribe medication and perform surgery. Both types of doctors complete four years of basic medical education and after completing residency programs, they have the opportunity to choose to practice in a specialty area of medicine.
Both types of doctors must pass comparable state licensing examinations and they practice in fully accredited and licensed hospitals and medical centers. In addition, osteopathic physicians bring something extra to medicine:
Ozone has been known for over one hundred years. It has been used for years as an antibacterial, antifungal, and anti viral treatment. It is shown to be very effective in stopping the worst, most virulent bacteria present. It is very versatile since it can be used in every part of the body with no side effects or toxic reactions. Ozone along with photoluminescence has been very effective in treating Lyme Disease along with oral supplements to control and in some cases eliminate the disease. P Photoluminescence is a very powerful treatment for infections of viruses, bacteria, candida and fungus of the body. There are no resistant strains to the treatment, and it can reach any part of the body. It works by energizing the outer ring of electrons of the oxygen molecule and shifting its ring orbit. This change causes a tremendous surge in the photon energy of the atom causing energy transfer through the body at the speed of light. It will have a very healing effect on the immune system to regenerate it. It will improve asthma, chronic fatigue, thrombophlebitis, neutralize toxins and viruses, destroy and inhibit growth of bacteria, activation of steroid molecules naturally, and correct cellular imbalance in the blood. Preventive medicine is an approach to balance the body functions. It is a total view of all the aspects that effect the natural function of the person. First is the immune system, which supports and protects the individual. This is involved with the health of the stomach and intestines. This system protects and traps the toxins and pathogens entering the person. The next area of concern is the endocrine system, which encompasses thyroid, pancreas, brain, adrenal, and sexual organs. Following this area is the cellular (or the molecular) structure of the person to determine if the elements are being properly utilized. Naturally, the environmental toxins and heavy metals effect all aspects of the body functions, and must be addressed. Q q R r S s T t U u V Vitamin Therapy Some patients are deficient in nutrients and electrolytes due to the poor absorption through the intestinal lining. If the intestine is inflamed, injured, allergic or imbalanced it will be unable to give you the proper nutrition necessary for you to come back to yourself. We can provide you with the raw materials necessary to rejuvenate your intestines to fight back and regain your immune system. It will give many patients more energy from chronic fatigue syndrome and other diseases. W w X x Y y Z z |
