In the last year, a tremendous number of clients age 45-85 have come in with neuropathy symptoms: nerve damage causing pain, numbness, tingling, and/or weakness. Many experience a tingling sensation in their feet and toes, and have found minimal relief despite consulting doctors. Causes range from the side effects of chemotherapy to infection to unknown sources.
In March, a client reached out with alarming news. As a 50 year-old man in excellent health, he was shocked to find his body debilitated and non-functional. In just a few days, he went from highly active to unable to walk.
Tingling pins and needles from the knees and elbows down
Numbness
Double vision
Orbital headaches
Dizziness
Fatigue
Doctors stated that the myelin sheaths on his nerves were degenerating due to a recent infection. After nearly a week in the hospital, he was released with no treatment protocol other than rest. They expected basic functions to return in 8 weeks and a full recovery in 6 months.
He was in a state of shock and despair. 'Waiting" to feel better went against his nature.
I offered to work with him in his home. Our goal was to reduce the time-to-heal and improve his comfort.
Upon arrival, I was surprised to find this normally vibrant man in such a weakened state. He was largely bedridden, using a walker to move with difficulty. He barely spoke above a whisper. I saw a man in dire conditions, worried that he may never return to a state of health again.
It's so easy to let our past experiences dictate expectations of the future. Fear can bring us into a spiraling of mind. We may think:
“My friend had this. It took 6 months to heal.”
“How am I going to work and take care of my kids?”
“Am I going to die? Will I ever get better? Some people never recover.”
We are invited to stay in the present moment with What Is.
“I am alive."
"My body has the ability to heal."
"I am not a statistic."
"I will keep my mind open, take steps toward health, and see what happens.”
With this positive frame of mind, we used several modalities to improve his condition:
Core Synchronism: We supported his physical body to realign with its innate healing capability. We opened his lymphatic flow, reset his nervous system, ensured harmonious movement in his brain lobes and optic nerves, and supported the kidneys and liver.
Clinical Qigong: We opened his energy-body to flow and process the trapped emotions and traumas of life. We brought his chakras and meridians out of shock, removed vibrations that didn’t belong to him, and welcomed his spirit to reconnect with his body. We brought his vibration back into alignment with health.
Essential oils: We applied a blend of oils to his spine to draw out inflammation and toxins from his nervous system.
Infrared Sauna: Starting in week 4, he used an infrared sauna 4 x per week to detox his organs and improve circulation.
Supplements: We used homeopathy to process heavy metals and a whole food supplement to remyelinate his nerves.
And...we witnessed an incredible recovery.
Week 1 - In the hospital
Immobile. Pins and needles. Double vision. Strong orbital headache. Myelin sheaths damaged.
Received infusion. No other treatments available.
Week 2 - 1st Session of Core Synchronism and Clinical Qigong
Day 8, Weak at home in bed. Unbalanced using walker. One eye squeezed shut. Faint voice barely above a whisper. Continued pins and needles, double vision, orbital headache.
Despite his dire condition, my intuition says "He's going to be ok."
Week 2 - 2nd Session of Core Synchronism and Clinical Qigong
Day 11, Improvement evident. Moving with a walker and shuffling short distances unassisted. Cracked a smile. Audible when speaking. All of his symptoms diminished: less intensity of pins and needles, squeezing of eye, headache and double vision.
My intuition says, "He's going to heal fast!"
Week 3 - 3rd Session of Core Synchronism and Clinical Qigong
Day 15, No more walker! He can walk up and down stairs with handrail support. He is conversational with a normal voice. No more squinting eye. Hardly a headache. Less tingling and double vision.
My intuition says, "This illness is going to be a small blip in his life."
Week 3 - 4th and Last Session of Core Synchronism and Clinical Qigong. Applied essential oils to the spine. Started supplements to remyelinate his nerve sheaths.
Day 21, He looks vibrant and is antsy to return to a normal life. He walked around the cul-da-sac. His sense of taste has returned. Double vision and numbness/tingling are 80% improved. He's exhausted by evening.
Week 4 - Infrared sauna 4x per week, supplement daily
Back to working from home
Week 5 - Infrared sauna 4x per week, supplement daily
Walking his dog through the neighborhood.
Week 6 - Infrared sauna 4x per week, supplement daily
Driving again. No more pins and needles. A full recovery!
Wow. I am speechless. Within 6 weeks, he fully recovered from a debilitating illness that could have affected his life for months or years. Rather than becoming chronic, the symptoms resolved...and quickly! To witness this complete turn-around inspires awe.
Why did he heal so quickly? We will never truly know. My impression is that several factors played a role:
Timing: We started working on his body within a week of onset. The symptoms had not become chronic yet. It's much easier to heal when the damage is not ingrained.
Variety: We used different types of modalities to support his physical body, mental-emotional state, and energetic flow. Approaching health from many angles brings about a more complete healing.
Baseline state of health: He is young and healthy overall, making his body more responsive to treatment.
Intention: He had a positive attitude, listened to his body, and had the intention of being fully healed.
Every single Body is different. His body was able to receive the treatment and activate his innate ability to heal. What a blessing!
I hope you are inspired by this story.
Seek support from many modalities.
Know that your body is brilliant and can be in a state of health.
