Cleaning Your Body’s Filters (the Foundations of Health) is crucial for long-term pain relief:  these are your digestive tract (stomach, small & large intestine); your liver; your immune system (lymphatics & spleen) and your kidneys.  These work from one to another and if one is clogged, the others can’t possibly function properly. Long-term pain relief needs to be a full body process, the better it functions at this core level, the less pain we’ll be in!

For long-term pain relief these Foundations of Health filters must be cleansed and kept cleaned.  To cleanse the Foundations of Health properly takes time, and most cleansing products and programmes barely even touch the surface, and pain continues.

What do we feel when we are in pain?  Aching in the muscles and bones?  Burning acidic pain?  Throbbing, stabbing pain?  A constant nagging in the nerves and muscles?  It doesn’t matter what a condition is diagnosed as: fibromyalgia, frozen shoulder, peripheral neuropathy, arthritis…  when it comes down to it our bodies are not functioning properly, we’re not cleansing our Foundations of Health and toxins and acids are building up in our body - when these toxins and acids can’t be released, they attach to the muscles, nerves, bones, spinal cord, cell membranes - these degenerate and deteriorate these tissues and cause pain.  These toxins then lead to other chronic health problems such as depression and stress, anxiety, weight gain & obesity and more.

Last week we had a clients with a combination of Frozen Shoulder and Peripheral Neuropathy.  Within 2 treatments of Frequency Specific Microcurrent - reducing inflammation in the nerves, joints and muscles, there has been significant pain relief and more movement!  It will be sometime until she is well, but we have already started the detoxification process in the nerves and muscles.  Medically this would never happen, and pain drugs are the only option.  Scary huh?

In my next blog I’ll talk about the parts to cleansing these Foundations of Health and again, why it is so necessary!

Until then,

Key highlights of November’s Pain Seminar at New Leaf Natural Therapies were interesting…  Attendees were from different walks of life, with varying levels of pain and inflammatory conditions: gut pain, arthritis, fibromyalgia, exhaustion & chronic fatigue syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis, menstrual pain, insomnia, depression and anxiety…

When you put it all together pain, regardless of the type, comes from the same causes which were discussed:

  1. chronic nutritional deficiences such as magnesium, calcium, potassium and B vitamins
  2. inflammation
  3. acidity
  4. toxicity
  5. structural imbalances and
  6. stress… leading to the fight and flight response

Our clinical and scientific testing processes can measure these problems and then our naturopathic supplements and treatments can start to reverse these problems in the body.

How to Get Rid of Stress - today I’ll give some Natural Pain Treatments that really work! Of course I say this with 15 years of naturopathic experience with a huge emphasis on nutrition and body work!

1.  Have you ever tried magnesium for stress and pain relief? There are many brands I find good (many are total rubbish - some simply are a waste of energy).  Why magnesium?  When we are stressed we chew up a huge number of minerals and vitamins at the speed of light.  We use heaps of magnesium, potassium and calcium, lots of B vitamins just for a start.  When our body is running on adrenalin, noradrenalin and cortisol we also can get quite acidic bodies (probably due to losing our minerals) which leads to chronic disease and chronic pain.  Our body used magnesium, calcium and potassium to help our bodies stay more alkaline, if we are deficient in magnesium and other minerals (like 70-80% of the human race) than our bodies slowly but surely start to be more and more acidic, which is linked to heart disease, cancers, arthritis and dementia!

Scary huh?  However, it’s easy to add magnesium.  I recommend a product called Metagenics Fibroplex or CardioX which both have an easy-to-absorb magnesium which gets into the cells pronto!  It makes us more alkaline, helps our nervous system heal faster, helps in reversing insulin resistance (a side-effects of long-term-stress) and much more!  It’s also excellent for Frozen Shoulder, Back and Shoulder Pain, Sciatic Pain and more.  It was originally developed for Fibromyalgia and it is fantastic for that long-term health problems! AND - if your body is magnesium deficient it can take up to 4 months at high doses to get enough into your system so that you’ve re-established levels in your muscles, bones, nerves and blood supply.

2.  Let’s briefly look at diet - the D word!!!  What does diet have to do with stress??  So Much!!!  Doctors really miss the boat here - there are connections with every hormonal  issue in our bodies… if we are not getting enough good fats (fish, avocados, LSA - linseed, sunflower and almonds) for essential fatty acids), green leafy vegetables for anti-oxidants and minerals, healthy organic and free-range meats, eggs and dairy products for protein, than we don’t have the ingredients to make our hormones.  If we eat too many carbohydrates - grains, starchy vegetables (potatoes, pumpkins, carrots - yes carrots!), sugars - natural and refined) than our body releases a lot more insulin, which increases adrenalin and cortisol (our stress hormones), makes us more acidic and throws our blood sugar levels into chaos.

As a general rule of thumb, for a long and healthy life, we need to have approximately even amounts, per meal of:  Fats + Protein = Carbohydrates…  Sound easy??  If we need to lose weight, we need to use the Keto Diet see www.ketodiet.com.au

I have found it is 100% possible to get Immediate Pain Relief for Back and Shoulder Pain and Frozen Shoulder with Frequency Specific Microcurrent - See full size imageI’ve been using Frequency Specific Microcurrent in our pain clinic now for some time, and am very impressed with how quickly and immediately long term (and acute) pain symptoms can be relieved.  We use 2 Frequency Specific Microcurrent machines simultaneously - which may be why we get such good results.  Back and shoulder pain is often eliminated or improved with only 1 hour of treatment, and is compared to about 5 hours worth or remedial massage therapy, which the body would of course, be unable to tolerate.  Back and shoulder pain issues such as calcification, tendonitis, ligament damage, tearing of the muscles can all be helped with Frequency Specific Microcurrent.  Calcification of the joints and arthritis can be reduced dramatically quite quickly so that long-term issues such as Frozen Shoulder can be eliminated.  One such client in his early 70’s had 1 treatment on his frozen shoulder - barely unable to lift his arm to shoulder height on the day he walked into our clinic, the next day popped in to hold his arm above his head to let us know how well he was doing.  Fantastic results!

A few weeks ago I did several massage treatments with some difficult clients (health issues, not personality issues) and as a consequence had throbbing pain down my right arm for 4 hours or so.  I used the Frequency Specific Microcurrent, for 80 minutes which completely resolved the pain and it has never returned.

I also have a massage therapist in my clinic who does deep remedial massage and uses the machine at the end of a big day to repair ligament and tendon problems before they become long-term health problems, which she has suffered from in the past.  We use the machine to help solve Emotional Pain as well - we have used it for grief, anger, tears and depression, hormonal issues, self-esteem issues and fear… all with fantastic results.  So try to find a local Frequency Specific Microcurrent Practitioner - preferably one who uses two machines simultaneously to save you time and money and get a healthy, Natural Pain Treatment today!!

We have had many other types of pain relieved with Frequency Specific Microcurrent, many cases of Immediate Pain Relief for Back and Shoulder Pain and Frozen Shoulder, Knee Problems, Spinal Cord Pain, Fibromyalgia etc etc etc
