What Kinds Of Physical Therapy Work For Arthritis?

Patients with arthritis in our practice are often referred to physical therapists during the course of their management. One question I often hear from patients when I suggest physical therapy is, "But, why can't I do exercises at home?"

So the big misconception here is that physical therapy is just a bunch of glorified exercise instruction. Nothing could be further from the truth. Physical therapy plays an extremely important role in the management of the patient with arthritis.

Before we go into the treatment modalities that physical therapists use, let's start with exercises since they are an integral part of treatment.

Exercises consist of stretching, strengthening, and range of motion. In addition, as patients get older they need different types of training such as with balance and gait. Finally, the physical therapist in conjunction with the occupational therapist may look into activities of daily living and suggest some modifications that may be helpful.

But where physical therapy plays a major role is in using different modalities to relieve pain and speed the healing process.

Diathermy is a treatment method which delivers deep heat. It is useful for chronic pain conditions such as deep muscle injury or arthritis.

Precautions in regard to skin and subcutaneous tissue depth should be attended to. For example, a person who is skinny will require much less diathermy than an obese person. Also patients with damage to sensory nerves probably should not receive diathermy.

Iontophoresis (IP) is a procedure where an electric current pushes ionically charged chemicals (ie., glucocorticoids or steroids) through the skin to reach deeper tissues. IP can be used for calcific tendonitis and inflammatory conditions such as arthritis. Contraindications to use of iontophoresis include allergy to the chemical being applied, open wounds, or neurologic deficits that impair a person's ability to feel.

Iontophoresis also should not be used near metallic implants, wires, or staples.

Ultrasound (US) is a type of treatment in which high-frequency sound waves are used to "heat up" superficial soft tissues and to help with tissue healing. Ultrasound can be used for tendon injuries or for short-term pain relief related to muscle strain or spasm. Contraindications of ultrasound include the use of US directly over recently surgically manipulated nerves such as a recent laminectomy, directly over malignant tumors, and over joint replacements and permanent pacemakers. US should also not be used in areas of thrombophlebitis (blood clots), near the eyes, over the uterus, ovaries, and testicles. US also should not be used in areas of acute inflammation, over the epiphyseal plates of growing children, and over breast implants of any type.

Phonophoresis (P) is the use of ultrasound to transport therapeutic medications to subcutaneous tissues. P can be used for inflammatory conditions such as tendonitis, arthritis, and bursitis. The same cautions and contraindications exist as for US.

Electrical stimulation (ES) is the process of using electrical current to deliver a therapeutic effect by generating an action potential in nerve tissue. This action potential leads to two potential results. The first is a change in sensory input, ie. a reduction in the ability to perceive pain. The second is a muscle contraction. Low grade muscle contractions can often relieve the severe muscle spasms that occur in association with arthritis. ES can be used for chronic pain related to arthritis, bursitis, or tendonitis. It is also useful for muscle spasm as well as neuropathic or radicular pain (pain from pinched nerves in the spine).

It has the same contraindications as US.

Low-level laser therapy- also known as cold laser- acts through the absorption of photon radiation. This leads to changes in cellular oxidative metabolism. Evidence indicates that levels of inflammatory and pain mediators such as prostaglandin E2 can be reduced with this modality. Cold laser can be used for minor musculoskeletal pain, osteoarthritis, chronic neck and low back conditions, and fibromyalgia.

It should be used with caution in patients with malignant tumors or in those being treated with anticoagulants, corticosteroids, or immunosuppressive drugs and should not be used over the thyroid gland or over reproductive organs.

Patients and those providing the cold laser treatment should use safety goggles to limit eye exposure to laser light.

These are only a very small portion of the many therapeutic modalities a physical therapist has in their arsenal. In the care of patients with arthritis, physical therapists are an indispensable member of the team.

Natural Treatment Tips for Bursitis

Natural Treatment Tips for Bursitis

The painful inflammation of a bursa is called bursitis. It's caused by bumping or bruising, repeated pressure, or overuse. Though bursitis is associated with physical activity, you don't have to be an athlete to develop the condition. Anytime you exercise too strenuously, especially after laying off your workout for a while, you can aggravate bursitis.

You can also have bursitis problems if your work or hobbies require repetitive physical movements, especially lifting things over your head. And sometimes bursitis can just flare up for no good reason.

A mixture of alfalfa, chaparral, and comfrey diminishes soreness and eases inflammation.

Apply a cloth soaked in comfrey or mullein tea directly to the affected area. Repeat often.

Add 1 tablespoon of cayenne pepper to 1 cup of apple cider vinegar and bring to a boil. Simmer for 15 minutes. Dip a cloth in the liquid and apply to the affected area as a poultice. Rub the area with warm olive oil before applying to the skin.

Sea water has been reputed to cure chronic bursitis. Drink daily. Buy the sea water from a local health food store. Caution: Do not use this recipe if you have high blood pressure.

Emu oil contains high level of linolenic acid. This acid is said to have good effect on bursitis as it works on muscle and joint pains. The linolenic acid is said to be having anti-inflammatory effect which penetrates into the skin and provides the relief. This is one of the best home remedies for bursitis.

Soak a cloth in mullein tea and apply it on the affected area. Repeat this process at regular intervals. To reduce pain and inflammation, apply ice to the affected area. To prevent stiffness, apply lobelia oil to the affected joints. Chamomile, hops, and skullcap tea promotes healing process.

For natural home remedies, the kitchen is a great place to start. It has almost all the medicines you would possible need at least, to deal with common ailments. All this at no or negligible cost, purity, without side effects and dollops of TLC (tender, loving care)! Sounds too good to be true? Well, it is just a little awareness and understanding that you need to make the best out of it. Read-up a bit on natural remedies to equip you to treat a toddler cranky with colic or diarrhea.

Stop the activity that has caused the pain, rest and protect the affected area with a padding or sling.

Before going to bed at night, take 1 cup of hot milk with 2 teaspoons of castor oil added. The laxative effect will eliminate pitta-type toxicity in the colon. If 2 teaspoons do not work, use 3 teaspoons the following night, adjusting your own dose. You should get a couple of good bowel movements in the morning, which will help to cleanse the impurities of the colon. You may continue using this remedy until your symptoms clear up.

The best cure for people bursitis -- when the cause is linked to gout -- is to drink plenty of water to flush out the system and maintain a proper diet. However, if the cause of your inflammatory bursitis is a trauma, then the cure may involve exercise, rest and avoiding repetitive motions.

Homeopathy For People Experiencing Tendinitis and Bursitis

2010-06-27T09:30:00.001-07:00

This article marks the fourth entry in a series I've written on musculoskeletal disorders and how homeopathy can help people experiencing them. Recently, I've written articles on Homeopathy and Rheumatoid Arthritis, Degenerative Arthritis, and Gout. This article will cover the topics of tendinitis and bursitis. In it, I will define these conditions, discuss their etiology, describe basic signs and symptoms of them, and then suggest homeopathic remedies that may help people experiencing these two conditions.

Bursitis is defined as inflammation of the bursae, which are fluid-filled sacs found between muscles and tendons. A bursa sac's function is to reduce friction between surfaces of the body, and aid in facilitating movement.

Bursa sacs are typically found in areas of the body where large joints are located, such as the shoulders, elbows, hips, and knees. These sacs of fluid can become inflamed, infected, or traumatized from overuse of the joint, continued or excessive friction of the joint, and from having systemic diseases such as gout and rheumatoid arthritis, which can lead to an infection of the bursa sac.

Tendinitis is simply defined as an inflammation of a tendon. Tendons are connective tissues between muscles and bones in the body. Tendons, muscles, and bones all work together to create movement in your body.

Tendinitis usually occurs after prolonged use of using the tendon inappropriately. Usually, tendinitis is accompanied by bursitis in the joint. The joints typically affected by tendinitis are the shoulder, elbow ("tennis elbow"), wrist, and knee ("housemaid's knee"), but can happen in any tendon in the body.

Tendinitis and Bursitis have similar signs and symptoms:

Tenderness and pain when moving the affected part

Joint movement is limited (flexion and extension)

Fluid accumulation and swelling (edema) of the joint

Homeopathic treatment for people experiencing bursitis and tendinitis usually needs to be accompanied by changes in the exciting cause of the pain itself: incorrect training for sports movements, improper use or form during weight lifting, excessive use beyond comfort, etc. Otherwise, homeopathic treatment will do little to relieve the pain. In addition to proper mechanics in the body, adjunct therapies such as osteopathy, rolfing, and/or chiropractic can help aid in recovery for more chronic cases.

Homeopathy is very effective for people experiencing acute (short-term, sudden onset) tendinitis and bursitis, as well as chronic (long-standing). There are several homeopathic remedies that may be useful for these situations. They are listed below:

Bryonia: Pain accompanying the inflammation that is sharp or stitching, in nature. Every slight motion causes pain. Feels better from applying pressure to the joint and from heat.

Phytolacca: Pain and inflammation that exists at the site of attachment for the tendon to the bone. This pain feels worse from heat, and better from cold applications.

Rhus Toxicodendron: Pain and stiffness that arises from overuse. The pain is better from continued motion, from hot bathing, or from heat. When the person gets moving, they feel compelled to keep moving and desire stretching the joint. Affects the left sided joints of the body more than the right.

Please note this list is not comprehensive. For specific and individualized care, please consult a qualified homeopath.

In this article I described the nature of bursitis and tendinitis, their etiology, their signs and symptoms, and homeopathic remedies that can help people experiencing these conditions.

Thanks for reading! Please contact me for further information.

Sincerely,
Noel Peterson

An Article on Cancer

AN ARTICLE ON CANCER

What is cancer?

Cancer is the general term used for diseases in which normal cells separate without any control thus involving other tissues. Cancer cells can also spread to various parts of the body through the blood and lymph system.

Wild cell growth turns into cancer when it is exposed to carcinogens (Cancer- causing substance) genetic defects, or viruses. A tumour is formed when cancer cells multiply large masses of tissue. In some cases tumours limit themselves to one spot in the body; some can be removed by surgery. These kinds of tumours may cause little harm and is termed benign. Hostile tumours are called malignant. The study of cancer is called oncology.

Causes of Cancer

People get lung cancer most of the time from smoking tobacco which is said to have carcinogenic substance mainly known as tobacco smoke. Some carcinogens include certain chemicals, the Sun’s ultraviolet light, and radiation. Cancer can be formed by several viruses by altering the DNA of a host cell and converting the cell’s normal genes into cancer – causing genes, or oncogenes. Genetic factors – such as chromosomal abnormalities or the inheritance of faulty genes from a parent of fore parent. This could most likely cause these persons who inherit these genes can end up having cancer. People that are Down syndrome, a chromosomal abnormality are susceptible to leukaemia.

How is cancer formed?

When a normal cell transforms into a cancer cell the genetic material (deoxyribonucleic acid or DNA) of a cell is changed, or mutated. Tumours don’t form over night they formed over decades or a certain amount of years, because of this it is very susceptible to formed into a cancer cell as time goes along. Most cancer occurs after the age of fifty, yet some are detected earlier in life, it varies.

Different types of cancer

It has been accessed that there are over more than 200 different types of cancers. They are named after the tissue or the organ they begin to form. The term Leukemia refers to cancer of white blood cells (can be also called leukocytes). Melanomas are cancers that begin in melanocytes (skin pigmentation.

Treatments for cancer

Oncologists have been using Chemotherapy, or drug therapy to help cancer patience around the world. When cancer spreads to different parts of the body chemotherapy is used to help treat the cancer, before it gets worst. The immune system is weak when cancer spreads through the body. Therefore a treatment name immune enhancing drugs or antibodies are also used to help build back up the immune system and to destroy abnormal cells. There has been an anticancer drug that kills cancer cells while leaving the good ones alive. This drug was introduced in the spring of 2001. The drug, Gleevec has proven to work very strongly against chronic myelogenous leukaemia, leukaemia is one of the four main types of blood cancer.

How can u prevent cancer?

Cancer can be prevented by doing the following:

¬For all smokers the only way that you can avoid yourself from getting lung cancer is to stop smoking.

¬Try not to be in the sun for lengthy periods, too much exposure to the sun can cause cancer

¬Lessen your high- fat diets

¬Avoid alcohol as much as possible

¬Unsafe sex

¬Other Carcinogens could prevent more than 80% of all cancer cases.

¬Do yearly testing; this would detect it in the early stage if you are tested positive, early treatment can be taken.

The following are various tests than can be taken to see if you have cancer.

Skin Cancer: Skin examination this is done by the naked eye of the doctor. If any area may look suspicious then biopsy is done and under the microscope cancer cells are examined

Prostate Cancer:

· Digital Rectal Examination: Prostrate is examined by a doctor using his/her finger from the lower part from the rectum. When you reach fifty years it must be done at least once a year. If there was any sign before that you may have prostrate then do a test once every year even though you may be under forty

Breast Cancer:

· Breast Self Examination: when you reach twenty years of age, this examination must be taken once every month.

· Clinical Breast Examination: the breasts and regions under the arms should be examined also, between the ages of 20 and 40 years. Once every three years this examination should be carried out, and once every year after the age of forty.

· Mammogram: Imaging of the breasts with X rays. It must be done once every year after 40 years of age.

An illustration of how a mammogram is done

Lung Cancer:

Chest X-ray: It is imaging of organs and bones in chest with X-ray. Especially if you are a smoker you should do chest x –rays at least twice a year.

Colorectal Cancer:

· Fecal Occult Blood Test: Blood in stool which can be seen only under microscope is examined. It must be done once every year after 50 years of age.

Why cancer has and is becoming more prevalent

Over the last generation there has been vast difference between the way we use to live and how we are now living. I can almost say that we live in a different world. Technology has been increased by a large percentage. Smelter plants, environmental chemical, polluted air, microwaves, computers, utensils and a lot of foods are said to be cancerous to us. Meats that are harmonized (e.g. chicken), plants, vegetables, fruits etc. these are all things that should make us healthy, but instead it can be deadly to us. Because of the amount of hormones that are being injected into them, plants and trees are being sprayed with insecticide, fertilizers as though these liquids are water. Then they are being sold to groceries, farmers etc, for us to buy and eat.

Is there any cure for cancer?

Since cancer has been detected, no cure solution has ever been introduced. Various anti–cancer tablets and chemotherapy was put in place in order to control cancer cells. Cancer, AIDS and Sugar diabetes are the three major sicknesses that have no cure. Although there are things out there to help cancer. It is proven that more and more people are getting cancer. Women have become prone to Breast cancer for the past 3o years. United States had even poured out billion to help find a solution to cure cancer.

Part 1 HOW TO TURN CANCER INTO A NEW LEASE ON LIFE

I am proud to announce that the Enhanced High-pH Therapy of Cancer
originally conceived by the world-famous bio and nuclear physicist
A. Keith Brewer, Ph. D. and
enhanced by the undersigned
is once again available through www.XYZ-Wellbeing.com ReTreat Facility

This cancer therapy is based on Natures way of getting rid of cancer. It simulates the life condition of the longevity populations of this world, all of which seem to have many factors in common. These people, many of which live well over 120 years in excellent health, are almost exclusively found in high altitudes of 2000 m (7000 ft) and above. They breathe clean air enriched with tiny amounts of ozone. They drink pure mountain water that flows right of the glaciers. They grow their own food that is rich in vitamins and minerals. Their stress level is low and they are in harmony with their environment.

Their spiritual beliefs demand from them to respect all other living beings. It is interesting to note that of the three people with the greatest longevity, two - the Hunzas in Northern Pakistan, and the Abkhazians in the Caucasian Mountains of Georgia near the Black Sea - are devout Muslims, the third, in Vilcabamba, Ecuador, mostly follow Native American Indian animistic beliefs.The first unusual ingredient of the environment of the longevity population - ozone is highly activated oxygen consisting of three atoms. This triatomic oxygen is the most powerful purifier of the Earth and of all living beings. In the simplest terms, ozone is capable of burning all poisonous substances at temperatures between 10 to 40 degrees Celsius (50 to 104 degrees Fahrenheit), as well as killing all bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms that may contribute to cancers.

Ozone is produced by the action of ultraviolet sun light on the oxygen in the air. The higher up we go, the more ultraviolet, and thus, the more ozone. Since time immemorial, it was known that women, who grew up in lowlands, would not get pregnant for at least six months if they moved to altitudes of 3600 m (12000 ft.) or higher. We believe now that ozone naturally prevents a pregnancy until these women are fully acclimatized to high altitudes. In the same way, as ozone temporarily stops the growth of the embryo, it also stops the growth of any fast growing cancer.
We know from the research of Prof. Dr. Otto von Warburg in the 1920s that the cancer cell acts like a plant cell and is dependent for its energy metabolism on lactic fermentation. Fermentation is 19 times less effective than oxidation, the normal energy metabolism of the entire animal kingdom. Fermentation is very sensitive to minute amounts of ozone and there are virtually no cancers observed in people living in altitudes above 2100 m (7000 ft.).

All longevity populations live on a diet rich in certain vitamins and minerals that have been proven effective in preventing cancer. Most important among these nutrients are vitamin C (ascorbic acid and ascorbates), vitamin A (retinoic acid and derivatives) and beta-carotene, vitamin E (mixed tocopherols), vitamin D2 from UV irradiation of ergosterol, the high-pH minerals cesium (Cs), rubidium (Rb), and potassium (K), and the trace minerals zinc (Zn), selenium (Se), molybdenum (Mo), and vanadium (V). These nutrients are found in the home-grown vegetables and fruits that are mostly eaten within a few hours after they are harvested. Needless to say, they are grown organically, without the use of harsh chemical fertilizers and pesticides. Most of the drinking water is glacier run-off, called milk of the mountains that is rich in rubidium and cesium. Magnesium (Mg), with calcium (Ca), essential for the transport of oxygen into cells, and potassium (K) with Mg, the most important intracellular electrolytes, are abundant both in green vegetables and drinking water consumed by longevity populations. It is interesting to note that most longevity populations go through prolonged periods of fasts on a yearly basis, be it during the month of Ramadan or during the leaner part of the year before the crops are harvested.

If ozone in higher doses is applied intravenously, it is effective not only to prevent cancer, but to reverse many cancers, especially cancers of the lungs, liver, pancreas, and metastatic cancers to the bone, as is well documented in the medical literature. Doctor A.K. Brewerâs high-pH therapy, using high doses of cesium (or rubidium), and enhanced by weak acids such as ascorbic acid (vitamin C) and retinoic acid (derived from vitamin A) , as well as ampholytic elements such as zinc and selenium, has been proven effective in virtually all fast growing cancers, both after oral and intravenous application. This is further enhanced by amilonitriles contained in apricot pits that are part of the regular diet of the Hunzas, and may also be applied intravenously in the form of Laetrile.

The intravenous form of the enhanced high-pH therapy also contains generous amounts of the intracellular electrolytes magnesium and potassium. The dosage of the I.V. therapy is adjusted to reduce virtually all smaller cancer accumulations (up to 20 or 30 cm diameter), providing that they are fast growing tumors, by one to two centimeters per day (2/5 to 4/5 per day). Large tumor masses are reduced with the I.V. therapy by 500 to 900 grams per day (1 to 2 lbs. /day) to prevent an over-loading of the bodies metabolism and excretion with tumor breakdown products. The critical factor is the kidney and liver function of the cancer patient before the enhanced high-pH therapy is started. One important thing to keep in kind is that, though the enhanced high-pH therapy was seemingly effective, some patients may still succumb from the adverse effects of cancer chemotherapy, or from complications of radiation or surgery undergone previously. Also, if a cancer patient, after the tumor disappeared with the high pH therapy, does not change his lifestyle and eating habits, cancers may develop again in his or her body.

How does all of this work?
Most orthodox cancer chemotherapy proffers only a large number of unproven theories and in almost all cases shortens the survival after severe suffering form its adverse effects1. On the other hand, the enhanced high-pH cancer therapy is proven effective by clinical and experimental studies that filled over two thirds of Supplement 1, to the major peer-reviewed medical journal Pharmacology, Biochemistry, and Behavior, of December 1984 [21 Suppl 1: 1-135]2.

Also, on this therapy, almost all patients, no matter how far gone or suffering from the adverse effects of chemotherapy and/or radiation, will feel much better within a few days. Particularly, cancer pain, even if unresponsive to the most powerful pain killers, in most cases disappears within only a few hours after starting the cesium.

Any symptoms connected with this therapy, particularly from the I.V. ozone, are almost always the result of a healing crisis, well known to homeopaths for over 200 years. These symptoms may be quite uncomfortable but subside in most cases within a few hours, and many patients report that afterwards they felt better then ever before in their lives.

1 See Appendix II to the author's two Cancer Articles: "Nutrients & Cancer" and "Cesium Therapy in Cancer Patients", Pharmacol Biochem Behav 1984; Suppl 1: 7-10 & 11-3, respectively.

2 See Appendix I to and also the author's two Cancer Articles of 1984.

In the following we will briefly explain how cancers form (i.e., carcinogenesis) and how the enhanced high-pH cancer therapy transforms cancer cells either to normal cells or makes them disappear altogether.

Professor Dr. Otto von Warburg, double Nobel laureate, in medicine and biochemistry, in the 1920s discovered the fundamental mechanism of carcinogenesis. When certain cancer-causing chemicals (carcinogens) attach to the cell membrane, the oxygen carriers calcium and magnesium are unable to enter these cells. The resulting oxygen starvation causes these cells to regress to anaerobic (i.e., without oxygen) metabolism [which is 19 times less effective than aerobic (with oxygen) metabolism, as was stated previously].

The end product of anaerobic breakdown of glucose is lactic acid which renders the cell acidic. This acidosis, in turn, causes the genetic changes that result in the uncontrolled growth of cancer cells. The pH in cancer cells, because of the lactic acid buildup, lowers from about 7.2 to 7.0 (in fast growing tissues) to between 6.8 and 6.0, and in some fast growing metastases to even 5.5. This renders cancer cells extremely vulnerable to ozone and alkalinity which, if applied in minute amounts, either normalizes or destroys them.

Specifically, intravenous ozone has the four major effects in cancer patients.

One, it removes homeopathically whatever disposed a specific organism to cancer and this causes the healing crisis. This healing crisis may be quite uncomfortable subjectively (though lasting at most a few hours), but there is less than a one in a million chance of serious complications.
Two, ozone removes all toxic and carcinogenic chemicals, amoebas, viruses, bacteria, and other agents from the body that may in some way contribute to cancer and this may be the reason why it seems to be cancer preventative.
Three, ozone inhibits any fast and uncontrolled growth typical for cancer cells.
And four, ozone has a well documented immuno-stimulating effect that helps both with the protection from cancer and with the removal of cancer cells destroyed by the high-pH therapy, enhances the body's resistance to infections, and boosts longevity.
The more acidic the cancer cells, i.e., the lower their pH, the more vulnerable they are to alkaline, or high-pH, agents. While normal cells are not permeable for cesium or rubidium, and require a transport mechanism for potassium, these three alkalizing elements freely diffuse into cancer cells. This causes the pH to raise in cancer cell; and the higher the pH in the cancer cells, the faster the cancer breaks down. If the intracellular pH is raised to above 8.5, you can actually see the skin wrinkle while you watch over areas where there previously was a superficial cancer tumor, e.g., a breast cancer.

This diffusion of alkalizing elements is enhanced by ascorbic acid (vitamin C) and retinoic acid (from vitamin A). Zinc and selenium further enhance the penetration of cesium, etc., by broadening the electron donor capacity of the cell membrane. Zinc and selenium are also powerful immunostimulants, and help with the removal of tumor cells by phagocytotic (lit. cell-eating) neutrophil leukocytes (white blood cells) and monocytes (also called macrophages or â big cell-eaters). Selenium, vitamin E, and beta-carotene are powerful antioxidantts that scavenge dangerous free radicals. Vitamin E also prevents the toxicity of high doses of vitamin A. Molybdenum enhances cancer-destroying oxidases, and vanadium assists with lipid and fatty aid metabolism for faster breakdown of cancers.

What is the reality of the 2004 State of the Cancer Treatment in the U.S.A.?
After 35 years of war-on-cancer, and almost $ 90 billion of research funding by the U.S. Government, the cancer death rate in the U.S. of A. increased almost six-fold from 145,000 in 1970, to an estimated 850,000 for 2004. Each insured cancer patient is presently worth between $ 150,000 to $ 500,000 (average about $ 200,000) to the medical profession, hospitals, and the pharmaceutical industry. The out of pocket expenses for insured patients range from $ 30,000 to 100,000, average about $ 40,000, whereas the ULS Cancer Therapy is offered at $ 16,000.00 / â‚¬14,000.00. The total national expenditure for cancer management to the premature death of over 800,000 people per year exceeds $ 100,000,000 ($ 100 billion), and, in addition, there are economic losses of the families of the prematurely deceased of perhaps $ 120 billion if their lives had been saved by effective alternative therapies.

This total financial investment for patients undergoing the enhanced high-pH cancer therapy is about one-half to one-tenth of the out of pocket expenses of the average insured cancer victim undergoing conventional orthodox cancer therapies. Best of all, the success rate with the enhanced high-pH therapy is consistently much higher and in many cases over 95%, particularly if you are not suffering from severe toxicity of chemotherapy or from radiation damages. And this includes proven incurable (i.e., by orthodox therapies) cancers of the lungs, liver, pancreas, brain, prostate, breast, bones, melanomas, lymphomas, sarcomas, and leukemias.

Because of the potential (especially, financial) impact of the enhanced high-pH therapy on the medical/hospital/pharmaceutical industry complex and their most powerful lobby in Washington, D.C., and in many State Governments, this effective, economical, non-toxic treatment can only be offered offshore, i.e., at a location outside the United States. However, every effort is made to have these offshore hospitals properly accredited and to have the costs of the treatments reimbursed by most insurance carriers. The first of these locations is now available in Northern Thailand at a first class hospital for Alternative Medicines that, Inshaâ€™Allah, will be upgraded to the point that it is eligible for Blue Cross insurance payments. (Added update) and also at XYZ Wellbeing ReTreat Facility and Research Cancer Centre in Located in the the beautiful Cartagena South America. Visit www.xyz-wellbeing.com and go to the why choose us link for more cesium information and cancer research.

Therefore, if you, or any of your loved-ones or friends have cancer, even if it was so far ân incurable with chemo, radiation, and/or surgery, please contact The above to see if you may be eligible for the enhanced high-pH therapy. We are committed to one thing only ând to return you to your mental, emotional, and spiritual wellbeing. As long as you faithfully follow the path that we map out for you, you have an excellent chance of emulating the joyous, vigorous longevity of the people who served as the models for the enhanced high-pH therapy. However, it cannot be stressed enough, that the shrinking of a tumor is by far the lesser part of overcoming cancer.

Much more important for lasting success is to overcome the cancer personality, defined in the 1960s by Lawrence LeShan, and to embark on an overall healthy lifestyle that equals and excels (by more advanced knowledge) the one the longevity populations. And, perhaps, most important is your will to live and your absolute need to have to accomplish things that must not be left undone by your premature death from cancer. By taking charge of your life in this manner and by taking responsibility by following our leads in all aspects of your life, you will make it possible not only to become free of cancer but remain free of it permanently.

We can only lead you to the Path.

It is up to you to walk it and to make sure that everyone around you walks it with you and all the way!

No matter what, always keep in kind that, fundamentally, the Lord wills the ultimate outcome of everything in your life. Just as the Lord lead you to the enhanced high-pH therapy to get rid of your cancer tumor, and to the comprehensive Ultralifescience Program for physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual wellbeing, the extent to which you will succeed with it is entirely as the Lord wills. Our promise to you is simply that we will leave no stone unturned to provide for you all the tools for your success in this endeavor.

To your abiding health, vigor, and happiness!

NOW THAT YOU HAVE LEARNED THAT YOU HAVE TERMINAL / INCURABLE CANCER

Cancer is perhaps the most feared disease on Earth since more and more people find out that the treatments offered for it in modern hospitals - surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy - seem to help only a small percentage of people who, in most cases, suffer from crippling mutilations and burns (from surgery and radiation), or severe, often life threatening, side effects from the poisonous chemicals used for chemotherapy.

Don't despair! There is still hope for you!

Even if your doctor sends you home to die perhaps telling you "We have done everything we know, there is nothing else we have to offer to help you, except letting you die in peace".

Did you ever wonder that before about 1900, cancer was a rare disease and that in some parts of the world there is NO CANCER at all? Research that goes back to Dr Otto von Warburg in the 1920s revealed the true nature of cancer and Dr A. Keith Brewer since the 1950, in part through investigation of cancer-free populations, formulated an effective treatment for cancer. This treatment was applied to many cancer patients and further enhanced by Dr Sartori since1980.

Almost all cancers in over 700 patients treated so far with this enhanced high pH therapy, responded within a few days and with I.V. application, daily shrinking of tumors between 1.0 and 2.0 cm can be expected. The only discomfort from this treatment comes from a "healing crisis" reaction that leaves you, after some initial discomfort, feeling better after a few hours or, at most, a day or two. How does this all work? Dr von Warburg found that cancer cells, like plant cells, function without oxygen and thus are very sensitive to oxygen and very strong alkaline elements. Because of the lack of oxygen, cancer cells break down their fuel, glucose, to lactic acid. This causes cancer cells to become acidic (i.e., the pH in the cancer cell is lowered to 6.8, even 5.8) which, in turn, causes them to grow out of control. Alkaline elements, particularly cesium, but also rubidium and potassium can freely enter cancer cells (but not normal cells) causing them to become alkaline or raise the pH in the cancer cell. This raised pH slows down the cancer growth and at a pH of 8.0 all cancer cell growth stops and the cancer cells either die or are turned into normal cells. While we all depend on oxygen to survive, cancer cells die if exposed to oxygen and, particularly, its most powerful form, ozone. People who live very long are free of cancer, is a fact that prompted Dr Brewer to investigate their nutrition and found that their diet contains the alkaline elements cesium (Cs), rubidium (Rb), and potassium (K), and other nutrients that were found to reduce the cancer incidence such as zinc (Zn), selenium (Se), molybdenum (Mo), vanadium (V), and the vitamins A, C and E, as well as amygdalins from apricot pits. After extensive studies of cancer cell cultures, Dr Brewer found the following: Zinc and selenium attach to the cancer cell membrane and make it easier for the cesium and rubidium to enter the cancer cells. Vitamins A and C are weak acids that attract these elements to the inside of cancer cells. Magnesium (Mg) and calcium (Ca) that normally transport the oxygen into cells are depleted in cancer cells. These and other findings were the basis for Dr Brewer to formulate the high pH therapy for cancer. His method was enhanced in the 1980s by adding I.V. ozone (which is the most active form of oxygen), herbal combinations, and other modalities, which made it even more effective.

Up to 98% of animals with cancers were cured by Dr Brewer's high pH therapy.

Tests on mice fed cesium and rubidium showed marked shrinkage in the tumor masses of abdominal implants of mammary tumors ("breast cancers") within 2 weeks. In addition, the mice showed none of the side effects of cancer. Cesium chloride, zinc gluconate and vitamin A were used together to alter growth of colon cancer implants in mice and the use of these compounds was responsible for the disappearance of tumors in 98% of the animals. Sarcoma I implants in mice and Novikoff hepatoma in rats disappeared if the proper ratio between cesium and potassium was maintained. With Dr Brewer's complete protocol, using cesium (&/or rubidium), potassium & magnesium, vitamins A, C, & E, zinc, selenium, & amygdaline, there was a prompt reduction of all tumors treated by Dr Sartori including lymphomas in cats and dogs, skin cancers in dogs, cancers of the mammary glands, mouth , and esophagus in horses, and cancers of unknown primary in chickens.

Like with all "nutritional" treatments, the principle of the weakest link of the chain holds true, and if even one essential nutrient is lacking, the treatment may fail. In virtually all of over 700 patients with different types of cancer, the enhanced high pH therapy was effective in reducing the tumor mass. Over 90% of these patients were terminal with extensive metastasis and had received maximum conventional cancer treatments. Malignancies treated with this protocol included cancers of the lungs, liver (& gallbladder), pancreas, breast, prostate, colon & rectum, stomach, brain, cervix & uterus, ovaries, testicles, adrenals, kidneys & bladder, of unknown primary, rectovaginal, etc., as well as lymphomas & leukemias, melanomas, & sarcomas & bone. The results with the LSU/ULS Cancer treatment in 100 cancers are detailed in the attached articles. Summary of and Comments on the LSU (now ULS) Cancer Treatment Results. There are several factors that should be pointed out with regard to the data summarized in Table I

(a) Out of over 500 cancer patients treated from 1980 to 1987, only 97 fulfilled the criteria of having been followed up for at least 5 years or until their death. This might negatively bias the number of patients that have died by a factor of up to five since almost all of the over 500 patients were followed for at least 3 months.

(b) According to Arlin J. Brown (AJB), cancer survival statistics as published by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) are not point-to-point, but are determined from the number that can be located 5 years after being diagnosed with cancer (and not even the beginning their first treatment, e.g., at) at NIH/NCI. In cancers with high mortality such as small cell lung cancers (1.0% 5-year survival according to NCI) and pancreas cancers (3.0% 5-year survival according to NCI), AJB found point-to-point survival rates of less than 0.01% and less than 0.05% respectively (perhaps because >99% of the patients had died so long ago that they could not be located anymore).

(c) By far, the majority of the patients seem at LSU were using our therapy as their last resort after all other treatments (both conventional & alternative) had been unsuccessful and most patients were simply sent home to die.

(d) In view of the extremely unfavorable patient population as outlined under (a) through (c), we believe that the results of the LSU treatment are quite remarkable and by far the best offered anywhere in the world.

(e) For reasons beyond the control of the authors, only about 200 cancer patients were treated from 1988 through 2003. In all of these patients, ozone and the minerals and vitamins were applied intravenously (I.V.). The I.V. application of minerals and vitamins proved to be a dramatic improvement in that (i) in virtually all cases, the size/diameter of all fastgrowing tumors was reduced by 1.0 to 2.0 cm (0.4 to 0.8 inches) per day, i.e., a disappearance of a 5.0 cm (2 inch) tumor within four days and of a 10 cm (4 inch) tumor within eight days, and (ii) virtually none of the patients showed any of the side effects frequently encountered with oral vitamin/mineral application such as nausea, diarrhea, abdominal discomfort, possible aggravation of ulcer symptoms, and sometimes even vomiting.

After several cancer patients were successfully treated at the Integrated Medical Center in Northern Virginia from April to July 1998, from mid 1998 until mid2003, government agencies and law enforcement in the U.S.A. virtually completely suppressed the use of the enhanced high–pH cancer therapy by LSU/ULS, and this treatment can now only be offered offshore and far removed from these agencies.

RESULTS WITH THE LSU/ULS TREATMENT PROGRAM FOR CANCER

(broken down into the most frequent types/locations of cancers treated) 1. Lung Cancers Of the 18 lung cancers described in this study (of a total of >100), 14 were connected to active smoking, two to passive smoking, one to radon exposure in the home, and one to cadmium exposure at the workplace. Asbestos may have been a factor in one of the active smokers, radon in the home in one of the passive smokers.

Beta-carotene, vitamin A, selenium, and vitamin E from green and yellow vegetables are now recognized as clearly preventative of lung cancer. These vegetables were conspicuously absent from the diet of most of our lung cancer patients. Instead, most of them were eating a meat and potato diet before they started the LSU cancer treatment program. Histologically, 4 patients had epidermoid cancers, 3 had adenocarcinomas, 8 had small cell carcinomas, 2 had large cell carcinomas, and in 2 patients the histologic type was unknown; two of the small cell carcinoma patients also had a lymphoma. All patients had received the full course of orthodox treatment: 6 had surgical resections (3 of the epidermoid-, and one each of the adeno-, small cell-, and large cell carcinomas). All patients had received chemotherapy, and the 6 surgical patients also had received radiation. At the beginning of the treatment, four of the patients were dying on a stretcher, four could walk only with assistance, six were given a prognosis of less than 6 months of survival, and in 4, the prognosis was unknown. The 2 patients with unknown histology who came in dying on a stretcher nevertheless survived 13 and 20 days respectively. The third of the dying patients, with an epidermoid cancer, survived almost 3 months until he died from internal bleeding from an extremely low platelet count. The fourth of the dying patients survived over 5 years and was well in July 1992; he had a small cell carcinoma that generally has less than 1% chance of 5 year survival (less than 0.01% according to Arlin J. Brown). One of the two small cell carcinoma patients who also had a lymphoma is alive and well without any sign of cancer over 10 years after he was barely able to walk into the office with assistance. He is now in excellent health and successfully runs a medical equipment company. The other unfortunately died in a hit-and-run car accident 10 months beyond his given life expectancy and without any sign of cancer at autopsy. One of the adenocarcinoma patients who came in, walking with assistance, responded well for about 2 weeks, then continuously deteriorated, and died after 4 months. The fourth walk-assist patient, with a large cell cancer was treated 4 times and died after 1 year and 8 months. Of the 6 patients who were given fewer than 6 months to live, one epidermoid cancer patient died from cardiac failure after 3 years and 4 months, one of the small cell cancer patients with terminal emphysema died from a combination of pulmonary failure and bronchopneumonia; one patient with adenocarcinoma received 6 treatment series and died from his cancer after 3 years and 8 months; one small cell cancer patient died after 2 years 5 months, one after 4 years 1 month, one epidermoid cancer patient died after 3 years 3 months. One of the factors in the deaths of these patients may have been that at the time of their treatments, the LSU mental reconditioning program (MRP) was far less developed. By using the full, presently available LSU MRP, perhaps at least two, maybe even four of these patients could have been helped. Of the lung cancer patients who survived over five years, four had a small cell cancer, one had a large cell, and one had an epidermoid cancer. 2. Lymphomas Of the 13 lymphomas described in this study (of a total of >60), 9 were lymphocytic (3 males had AIDS, one male had severe rheumatoid arthritis, and one was a Klinefelter syndrome; 4 were females), one female had Hodgkin lymphoma, one male had a T-cell lymphoma, and in 2 males, the histology was not determined. Three patients were dying, 4 needed ambulatory assistance partially because of their enormous tumors, and 3 were given less than a year to live. One of the dying patients with lymphoma of unknown histology died after 17 days from cardiac toxicity of chemotherapy. Another of them, an AIDS patient, died after 7 weeks from aplastic anemia from combined chemotherapies for infections and the lymphoma, given to the patient prior to his coming to LSU. No signs of lymphoma were detected at time of death. One 37 year old dying woman has survived over 10 years without any sign of recurrence after only one series of the LSU treatment.

Of the 4 patients who needed assistance with walking, one AIDS patient is alive and well for over 8 years, has turned HIV negative at the end of one treatment series and his T4 cell count rose from 124 with a T4/T8 ratio of 0.36 to between 1,100 and 1,300 with a T4/T8 ratio between 1.5 and 1.8 for the last 4 years. Within one month, his nodal lymphomas disappeared and none of his previous CNS involvement was detected anymore on a CAT scan. One patient had a huge hemispheric protrusion of his abdomen, very similar to a patient described in Pharmacol. Biochem. Behav., Vol. 21, Suppl. 1, pp. 11-13, 1984. His total tumor mass was estimated to be about 37 kg with about 40 liters of ascites. Within 3 weeks both tumor and ascites were reduced to approximately one half, within 2 months there was only a slight enlargement of the spleen of about 5 cm. The patient survived for over five years without any sign of tumor recurrence. The two patients who had both lymphoma and lung cancer were already discussed under 1.; one of them is alive and well, the other died 10 months after treatment in a hitand- run accident. He had shown no signs of cancer at autopsy. One of the 3 patients who were given less than a year to live, unexpectedly died from a heart attack 10 months after initial treatment. Another died after 3 years and 7 months and did not respond to treatments, except for the initial series. The third patient survived for over 5 years without sign of tumor recurrence. The woman with Hodgkin lymphoma died from aplastic anemia, a complication of her previously received chemotherapy, 1 year and 2 months after treatment onset. The patient with the T-cell lymphoma had come all the way from Osaka, Japan and seemed to respond well to the first treatment series. He returned 5 months later, showed barely any response to the treatment, and died 11 months after the initial visit. Language problems may have been a contributing factor to his death, since we were not sure, whether he and his family had completely understood our instructions. 3. Liver Cancers Primary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) or malignant hepatoma is one of the most common malignancies in the world and it is estimated to be responsible for up to 1,300,000 deaths every year. In portions of Africa and Asia, HCC is the most common malignant tumor. It occurs infrequently in the U.S., North and South America, and Europe where it accounts for about 2% of the malignancies. The incidence of HCC is especially high in China, Taiwan, Mozambique, and Singapore. Risk factors of HCC include chronic toxic hepatic injury (20 to 60% in N&S America), cirrhosis (60 to 90% worldwide), chronic hepatitis B infection (20 to 90% worldwide), aflatoxin (especially in Africa and Asia, e.g. from peanut oil), alcoholism, chronic hepatic outflow obstruction (CHOO; 20% in South Africa, 60+% in Japan), male gender (5:1 in high incidence areas, 2:1 in low incidence areas), Asian or Black ancestry (or rather dietary habits). Of the 12 patients listed as having liver cancer (of a total of >50), 8 had primary HCC, 3 had extensive liver metastasis from an occult primary malignancy (OPM), and one patient had intrahepatic biliary cancer (IHBC).The 8 patients with HCC had elevated alpha fetoprotein (AFP) and reduction of AFP below 100 mg/mL was interpreted as an indication of tumor disappearance. Using a cutoff for serum levels of 10 ng/mL, AFP is sensitive for HCC in 70 to 90%. Patients with cirrhosis and chronic hepatitis tend to have elevated AFP levels of usually under 200 ng/mL. Levels of 400 to 1,000 ng/mL are diagnostic for HCC. AFP is also elevated in yolk sac tumors and in a high proportion of other germ cell tumors.

The patient with IHBC and the 3 patients with liver metastasis from OPM had elevated carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) in the range of 55 to 185 ng/mL at their admission to the LSU cancer treatment program. No colorectal cancer or other primary malignancy was ever found. Elevated CEA levels are found in patients with gastrointestinal, pancreatic, breast, lung, thyroid medullary, and genitourinary carcinomas, as well as in benign disorders including inflammatory bowel disease, cirrhosis of the liver, pancreatitis, and pneumonia. Normal values for CEA are up to 2.5 ng/mL, in smokers up to 5.0 ng/mL. Benign disorders seldom elevate the CEA level above 10 ng/mL. Reduction of CEA levels below 5 ng/mL was interpreted as an indication of tumor disappearance. Of the 12 liver cancer patients, 3 were dying, 3 needed assistance when walking, and 4 were given life expectancies of less than 6 months. 9 had undergone surgery, including the 3 OPM and the IHBC patients; 5 had suffered radiation treatment, and all 12 had been exposed no massive chemotherapy. One female HCC patient, a 32-year-old fitness instructor, had been first seen in the office of a world famous diet doctor in New York City, where she almost died on the table from an imbalanced vitamin-mineral IV. Through almost a miracle she made it to Washington, D.C., lying on a stretcher in the station wagon driven by her husband. Within 2 weeks her massively enlarged liver that had extended over 14 cm below the normal in a scalloped curve that filled about two-thirds of her abdomen, had returned to normal. Her AFP test came down from 2,420 ng/L to 120 ng/mL within 24 weeks. She was well until about 4 years later when she died in a car crash. Unfortunately, the diet doctor never referred any other cancer patient to the LSU clinics. Four more of the HCC patients, and one of the OPM patients, responded very well and survived over 8 years after their initial treatment without signs of recurrence, with AFP and CEA below the cutoff points of 100 ng/mL and 5.0 ng/mL respectively. One HCC patient died from the side effects of chemotherapy within 2 weeks, another within 2 months; one OPM patient shared the same fate after fewer than 3 months. The IHCP survived 2 years and 4 months, after responding moderately well to 3 courses of the LSU cancer treatment. 4. Pancreas Cancer The tumor-associated carbohydrate antigen, CA 19-9, detects about 80% of all pancreatic cancers correctly, compared with 8% of patients with pancreatitis and 1% false positive normal patients. The pancreatic adenocarcinoma glycoprotein, DU-PAN-2,. detects up to 55% of all pancreatic cancers, though in may also be elevated in patients with biliary cirrhosis, gastric cancer, and biliary cancer. In all of our 11 pancreatic cancer patients(of a total of >50), either CA 19-9, DU-PAN-2, or both markers were elevated to a range of 850 to 950 U/mL for CA 19-9, and 300 to 1,200 U/mL for DU-PAN-2 at admission, and reductions of serum levels below 70 or 120 U/mL, respectively, were considered as evidence of disappearance of the tumor. CA 19-9 antigen (detectable by a murine IgG1 monoclonal antibody against a human colon carcinoma cell line) is elevated in 55 to 90% of stomach cancers, 80% of pancreatic cancers, and about 95% of colorectal cancers; in advanced pancreatic cancers it is elevated in 80-90%. In benign disorders including acute pancreatic, hepatobiliary disease, and inflammatory bowel disease, CA 19-9 usually does not exceed 100 U/mL. Normal values of CA 19-9 are up to 36 U/mL. DU-PAN-2 is a mucin-type glycoprotein antigen selected for reactivity against human pancreatic carcinoma cells (detectable by murine monoclomal antibodies). Increased levels occur in many diseases of the liver and hepatobiliary tree including primary biliary cirrhosis, sclerosing cholangitis, hepatitis, cirrhosis, and benign hepatomas, and usually do not exceed 200 U/mL. DU-PAN-2 may also be elevated in biliary and gastric cancer, and in primary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Normal DU-PAN-2 values are up to 60 U/mL. Histologically 10 of the 11 patients had an adenocarcinoma of the pancreas, one had an intrapancreatic bile duct carcinoma (IPDC) that was diagnosed intraoperatively. One patient had both stomach and pancreatic cancer. Eight of the patients had undergone resections and/or exploratory surgery, 10 had suffered from radiation, and all 11 had been given massive doses of chemotherapy.

At the onset of the LSU treatment,
one patient was dying, 3 needed walking assistance, and 6 were given fewer than 6 months to live.

Two patients died from the side effects of chemotherapy within less than 3 weeks including the patient with IPDC. One other succumbed from chemotherapy side effects after 10 weeks. One patient died after about 10 months from an internal bleeding probably not related to cancer. The patient with stomach and pancreatic cancer did not respond well to 3 treatment courses. Nevertheless, they prolonged his life from an expected less than one month to 1 year and 7 months. One patient died after 3 years and 2 months, another after 3 years and 11 months. Nevertheless, the treatment had extended their life expectancy of less than 6 months. Four of the 11 patients survived more than 5 years which compares favorably with a reported 5-year survival rate of pancreas cancer patients of 3% (or less than 0.01% according to Arlin J. Brown). 5. Breast Cancer Six of the nine breast cancer patients (of a total of >40), who are discussed in this report were terminal with widespread metastatic disease, one of them dying, two of them needing walking assistance, and another three with a life expectancy of less than 6 months. In all cases, any detectable primary tumors or metastatic skin tumors either disappeared within 2 weeks or turned from hard, knobby, scalloped, infiltrative cancerous growths into much smaller well-defined, round, and much softer benign cysts with a smooth surface. Unfortunately, two months after treatment onset, one patient died of cardiac failure from doxorubicin toxicity, and one patient died from acute pericarditis-myocarditis from cyclophosphamide less than 3 weeks after treatment was started. One patient responded well to the first treatment course, but had a recurrence after 3 months, and died from pneumonitis. It is possible that an ill-advised treatment course with bleomycin may have contributed to her demise. One patient, a former heavy smoker aged 57 when her treatment began, died after 2 years and 11 months from a myocardial infarction. 5-fluorouracil treatment may also have contributed to her premature death. Another patient who responded poorly to the treatment nevertheless survived 2 years and 2 months, more than 2 years longer than she expected before she started the LSU treatment. The remaining 4 patients survived over 5 years without any sign of recurrence. 6. Prostate Cancers Six of the 8 prostate cancer patients in this study (of a total of >40), had extensive metastatic disease, one of them was dying, two needed assistance with walking, and 4 were given less than 6 months to live. All patients showed elevated levels of prostatic specific antigen (PSA) that ranged from 35 to 235 ng/mL at admission (Normal PSA < 4.0 ng/mL). In benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH), PSA levels <25 ng/mL are seen. PSA is false negative in about 15% of the prostate cancers. The cutoff point for the disappearance of the cancer was set at 10 ng/mL. Very similar to the results in breast cancer patients, all palpable infiltrating tumor masses in all patients either disappeared or turned into benign, well-defined, cystic tumors of much smaller size. The dying patient succumbed to the side-effects of his chemotherapy 20 days after the beginning of his treatment. One of the severely debilitated patients died after 9 weeks also as a consequence of his chemotherapy. Two patients only partially responded to the treatment. One of these died in a horseback riding accident, the other died after 4 treatment courses 2 years and 5 months after he started the LSU cancer treatment. He had survived almost 2 years longer than was originally expected.

Four patients survived at least 5 years, two of them needed only one treatment course, one of them needed two, and the fourth needed four treatment courses. Their PSA levels were maintained below 10 ng/mL after their treatments were completed. 7. Colorectal Cancers Of the 6 patients in this study with colorectal cancers (of a total of >50), all had elevated values of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) in the range of 80 to 280 ng/mL, indicative of widespread metastatic disease; all of them had undergone surgical resections, 4 with colostomy, and 2 without colostomy. All 6 had received a full course of chemotherapy with 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and a variety of other chemotherapeutics. Two of the patients received radiation therapy. The response of these patients to the LSU treatment program was not as impressive as for instance, in the case of liver cancer patients. Only the 2 patients without colostomy survived more than five years after 2 and 3 LSU treatment courses respectively. In both cases, the CEA was maintained below 5.0 ng/mL. One of the colostomy patients died from a heart attack after a good initial response to the treatment in the 11th week of his treatment. 5-FU-induced myocardial ischemia may have been a contributing factor. Another of the colostomy patients apparently died from a barbiturate overdose, possibly a suicide attempt. It should be noted that over 35 of the colostomy patients were lost in the follow-up. The two patients who had suffered abdominal radiation had severe problems with adhesions and fistulas. Both had severe diarrhea at admission that was controlled with diet within about 2 to 3 weeks. Though both had a life expectancy of less than 3 months at the time of admission, they survived for 2 years and 7 months, and 3 years and 3 months, respectively. Their CEA levels returned to below 5.0 ng/mL after 3 months and stayed there until their deaths. 8. Uterine Cervical Cancers All 6 patients in this study (of a total of>30) had undergone radical hysterectomies and pelvic lymphadenectomies, multiple radiation treatments, and full courses of chemotherapy (4 patients received a combination of doxorubicin and methotrexate; 4 patients received mitomycine, vincristine, and bleomycin; one patient had been given both combinations). One patient died after 2 years and 20 months after undergoing 4 courses of the LSU treatment. Originally she was given less than 3 months to live. One patient fell down a flight of stars, fractured her neck and died with hours. She had survived 3 years and 5 months. Her original life expectancy was less than one year. Two patients survived 5 years and had no indication of tumor recurrence on CAT scans and NMR imaging. For the normalization of abnormal Papanicolaou (PAP) smears [Group 2: Infections; Group 4: squamous cell CA; Group 5: adenocarcinoma; Group 6: nonepithelial malignancy] and even of Stage O (Carcinoma in situ) through Stage IA2 (strictly confined to cervix; depth: £5 mm, spread: £7 mm), cervical cancers, topical application of folic acid in conjunction with vaginal ozone application has been found virtually 100% effectivein about 30 patients. Vaginal ozone applications are also an effective prevention of cervical cancers since it removes HPV and other pathogens that are causing chronic cervicitis that may turn malignant. 9. Brain Cancers All 4 brain cancer patients (of a total of about 15) had highly malignant extensive glioblastomas. All 4 had undergone surgery and radiation, as well as glucocorticoid therapy. Two of the patients were unconscious at admission. The two conscious patients complained about headaches, especially in the morning, loss of appetite, nausea, loss of concentration, reduced mental capacity, and increased sleepiness. In both, personality changes were clearly evident.

After treatment onset both unconscious patients regained consciousness within 3 days and were able to say simple sentences within 5 and 8 days respectively. One of these patients suddenly deteriorated in the 4th week, possibly from malnutrition. His sister, who supervised his feeding, had failed to properly follow our instructions. When we found out that there was a problem, the patient was already beyond recovery. The other patient recovered well enough to return to his job as a real estate broker, and has survived 5 years without sign of recurrence. Both of the two conscious patients had a lethal car accident; one about 2-1/2 years, the other about 3-1/2 years after their treatments. Both accidents may have been related to personality and psychomotor changes caused by their original tumors. 10. Melanomas The three patients with melanoma in this study (of a total of about 12) all had widespread metastatic disease. They all responded well to the first course of treatment though less favorably to further treatment courses. One of the patients died after 11 months. She had originally been given less than one month to live. Another patient who had been given less than 6 months to live survived 2 years and 10 months. One of the patients, a black woman who had undergone 5 courses of treatment, survived 5 years without sign of malignancy. 11. Other Cancers The number of the 10 remaining tumors in this study (of a total remaining of >80), two ovarian cancers, two stomach cancers (one of which was combined with a pancreatic cancer; see under 4.), one osteosarcoma, one soft tissue sarcoma, two kidney cancers, one bladder cancer, and one adrenal cancer, is too small to allow any clear judgment of the effectiveness of the LSU treatment in these specific cancers. In all cases, a prompt response was seen in the first treatment course. One kidney cancer patient died after 20 days as a consequence of his chemotherapy. The other kidney cancer patient responded moderately well to the LSU treatment and died after 4 years and one month (well over 5 years after his original diagnosis & thus "cured" according to NCI statistics,). The stomach cancer patient who also had pancreas cancer is described above under 4. He died after 1 year and 3 months. The other-stomach cancer patient responded moderately well to consecutive LSU treatments and died after 4 years and 2 months (rather than after less than one year ; & would also be listed by NCI as "cured"). One ovarian cancer patient responded well and survived over 5 years. The other re

Cancer Treatment Coaching

Once you have read my "Cancer-Free(Second or Third Edition)"book, I am available for additional coaching. I have learned two lessons after five and one half years of coaching like this:

First, only telephone coaching works. There is too much gained from interaction with the cancer patient or his/her loved one. E-mails just don't work. Here's an example from a lady in Curacao in the Netherlands Antilles:

"Dear Bill,

Many thanks for spending the time the other day – I felt it was extremely valuable. Having read your book so long ago, it was also a good refresher to get me back on track. . I have chased the suppliers of the vitamins and will also purchase the Cellect. Thereby, I will be taking all the vitamins you recommend, plus the FO/CC, Cellect and apricot kernels. I will make an appointment next week for the panoramic x-ray of my teeth and send it off. I will order "The Emotion Code." I am seriously thinking of declining chemotherapy if it is offered to me.

What I felt was most valuable to me with your coaching call was that it gave me hope to carry on with the alternative treatment. I was starting to doubt it after the last progression of my disease. I can see some of the things I have been doing wrong and plan to correct them.

You provide a fantastic service Bill and give us all hope! I believe in your therapy and hope to be one of the long term survivors. I will keep in touch.

Very best regards and I wish you a terrific 2009.

Mandy

cancer breast removal

cancer breast removal

I have been doing research on cancer on many ways and for many years.

I have found out that for cancer breast reoval doctors usually prefer surgery.

On the the free site breastcancer.org the various ways of cancer breast removal are reported as following

Lumpectomy, also known as breast-conserving surgery, is the removal of only the tumor and a small amount of surrounding tissue.
Mastectomy is the removal of all of the breast tissue. Mastectomy is more refined and less intrusive than it used to be because in most cases, the muscles under the breast are no longer removed.
Lymph node removal, or axillary lymph node dissection, can take place during lumpectomy and mastectomy if the biopsy shows that breast cancer has spread outside the milk duct. Some people qualify for the less-invasive sentinel lymph node dissection.
Breast reconstruction is the rebuilding of the breast after mastectomy and sometimes lumpectomy. Reconstruction can take place at the same time as cancer-removing surgery, or months to years later. Some women decide not to have reconstruction and opt for a prosthesis instead.

Prophylactic mastectomy is preventive removal of the breast to lower the risk of breast cancer in high-risk people.
Prophylactic ovary removal is a preventive surgery that lowers the amount of estrogen in the body, making it harder for estrogen to stimulate the development of breast cancer.
Cryotherapy, also called cryosurgery, uses extreme cold to freeze and kill cancer cells. Right now, cryotherapy is an experimental treatment for breast cancer.

There is always hope, remember.

You Can Be Cancer Free Despite the Diagnosis

You Can Be Cancer Free Despite the Diagnosis

The medical world fills our heads with all the ways to treat cancer, the devastating effects cancer has on a person, and who is more susceptible to it. If your grandmother and mother have it, you will likely have it too. They sure make life sound so promising, don't they? They never seem to have access to interesting facts like what caused the cancer. Maybe they are too busy expecting future cases and trying to treat the ones they have. If we knew the causes of it, could we avoid them or get to the root of this awful disease? Could there be such a thing as a cancer remover?

Is there an alternative to conventional methods like surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation? All of these treat your body more like a pinata than a living being. Patients often wonder if dying would be easier than living. Is there a gentle, non toxic cancer remover? One that treats your body as a refuge instead of a dump. Sadly, a doctor is one of the least likely people to tell you about natural, proven healing methods even though many people have been completely healed of cancer using these methods. You have a choice if you are a cancer victim or if you have a friend or family member who is. Do you want to undergo surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation so that you can be in remission? Or do you want to beat cancer once and for all?

Yes, it's true, you can beat cancer with a cancer remover. This requires no nasty treatments that leave you feeling like the walking dead. Even if the medical professionals told you that you are terminal, you do not have to accept that diagnosis. There is hope! There is a book that makes beating cancer simple. All you have to is buy the book and you are in control of where you go from there. It's your body. Do you want to accept a death sentence or you do you want to proclaim life? No one should have to die this way and you don't have to. It's your choice, it's your body, and you can reverse this disease.

Treatment removal for kidney cancer

Treatment removal for kidney cancer

Here once more to deliver information you might on treatment removal for kidney cancer.

This reaserch was done for you out of love and to give the best information out there.

If you have found this info interensting you might be interested in reading more about the cancer remover program

Staging

To plan the best treatment, the doctor needs to know the stage (extent) of the disease. The stage is based on the size of the tumor, whether the cancer has spread and, if so, to what parts of the body.

Staging may involve imaging tests such as an ultrasound or a CT scan. The doctor also may use an MRI. For this test, a powerful magnet linked to a computer makes detailed pictures of organs and blood vessels.

Doctors describe kidney cancer by the following stages:

Stage I is an early stage of kidney cancer. The tumor measures up to 2 3/4 inches (7 centimeters). It is no bigger than a tennis ball. The cancer cells are found only in the kidney.

Stage II is also an early stage of kidney cancer, but the tumor measures more than 2 3/4 inches. The cancer cells are found only in the kidney.

Stage III is one of the following: The tumor does not extend beyond the kidney, but cancer cells have spread through the lymphatic system to one nearby lymph node; or The tumor has invaded the adrenal gland or the layers of fat and fibrous tissue that surround the kidney, but cancer cells have not spread beyond the fibrous tissue. Cancer cells may be found in one nearby lymph node; or The cancer cells have spread from the kidney to a nearby large blood vessel. Cancer cells may be found in one nearby lymph node.

Stage IV is one of the following: The tumor extends beyond the fibrous tissue that surrounds the kidney; or Cancer cells are found in more than one nearby lymph node; or The cancer has spread to other places in the body such as the lungs.

Recurrent cancer is cancer that has come back (recurred) after treatment. It may come back in the kidney or in another part of the body.

Treatment

Many people with kidney cancer want to take an active part in making decisions about their medical care. They want to learn all they can about their disease and their treatment choices. However, shock and stress after the diagnosis can make it hard to think of everything they want to ask the doctor. It often helps to make a list of questions before an appointment. To help remember what the doctor says, people may take notes or ask whether they may use a tape recorder. Some also want to have a family member or friend with them when they talk to the doctor-to take part in the discussion, to take notes, or just to listen.

The doctor may refer the patient to a specialist, or the patient may ask for a referral. Specialists who can give the best treatment removal for kidney cancer include doctors who specialize in diseases of the urinary system (urologists) and doctors who specialize in cancer (medical oncologists and radiation oncologists).

Thanks again for taking time and reading, and remember there is always hope.

All the best.

HYPERTHERMIA IN CANCER TREATMENT

2010-06-23T15:52:00.001-07:00

HYPERTHERMIA IN CANCER TREATMENT

Breaf History of Hyperthermia
The healing effect of heat treatment was already mentioned in the advanced cultures of the old Egypt (2400 B.C.), but only the medical professionals of the Greek Antique used this therapeutic approach consistently, acknowledged it and called it over-warming (in Greek: Hyperthermia). "Give me the power to produce fever and I heal every illness", said Parmenides, Greek physician, 540-480 B.C.

Hyperthermia in cancer treatment
Hyperthermia (also called thermal therapy or thermotherapy) is an acute condition which occurs when the body produces or absorbs more heat than it can dissipate. It is usually caused by prolonged exposure to high temperatures. The heat-regulating mechanisms of the body eventually become overwhelmed and unable to effectively deal with the heat, causing the body temperature to climb uncontrollably.

Hyperthermia can also be created artificially by drugs or medical devices. In these instances it may be used to treat cancer and other conditions. Cancer cells are more heat-sensitive than healthy cells and their structure reacts differently to overheating. In 1910 the possibility of overheating in order to increase the radiation effect on malicious tumors was described for the first time. This already well-known and applied method was rediscovered as so called "whole body hyperthermia" in the beginning of the 1960s. Since the 70s a number of studies were run to further investigate this therapy form.

Research has shown that high temperatures (up to 44°C) can damage and kill cancer cells, usually with minimal injury to normal tissues. By killing cancer cells and damaging proteins and structures within cells, hyperthermia may shrink tumors.

Hyperthermia is almost always used with other forms of cancer therapy, such as radiation therapy and chemotherapy. Hyperthermia may make some cancer cells more sensitive to radiation or harm other cancer cells that radiation cannot damage. When hyperthermia and radiation therapy are combined, they are often given within an hour of each other. Hyperthermia can also enhance the effects of certain anticancer drugs, which is mutually strengthened thereby and a healing more likely - the so-called synergistic effect of hyperthermia. It was found out that cytostatic drugs (chemotherapy substances) clearly act more aggressively at temperatures over 40° C than within the range of the normal body temperature.

Shoulder Tendinitis Help

2010-06-18T21:45:00.001-07:00

Shoulder Tendonitis is one of the most common conditions of the rotator cuff, the shoulder joint. It is important to know that shoulder tendonitis is only part of a single problem and goes hand in hand with shoulder bursitis and impingement syndrome. The bursa is a slippery sack placed in strategic position over a bone where there are tendons sliding on it. This is what nature designed to prevent inflammation.

In the case of the rotator cuff, the tendons normally slide over the bursa with ease, but sometimes the space between the humerus (arm bone) and the acromion (shoulder bone) is somewhat restricted and both the tendons and the bursa become inflamed. In the case of tendons it is called tendonitis, while in the case of bursa it is called bursitis. It is the same inflammation of two different adjacent areas, since inflammation does not have boundaries.

When shoulder tendonitis occurs, it is mostly together with bursitis, and the two terms can be used interchangeably, since the treatment is the same as well. Both tendonitis and bursitis in turn go hand in hand with impingement syndrome. Once the tendons and the bursa are inflamed, the space between the humerus and the acromion becomes even more restricted than it was at the start, causing a self fueling condition of ever increasing inflammation and pain that typically shows itself with a "pinching" sensation in the shoulder joint, whenever a movement is done. Hence the impingement syndrome.

Shoulder tendonitis is therefore treated the same way as shoulder bursitis, which is with non steroidal anti inflammatory drugs, or cortisone injections to be used as a last resort due to negative side effects for the rotator cuff tendons. Natural remedies like ice packs can also be beneficial, but most importantly a professionally designed exercise program for rotator cuff injuries and conditions.

A proper set of exercises can cut down on recovery times an save unnecessary pain and misery. This is all the more true, since the rotator cuff is by far the most complex of all the human body joints and it is normal to take several months or even 2/3 years to recover.

Rotator Cuff Recovery - Pros and Cons of Different Treatments

2010-06-10T15:41:00.000-07:00

I ought to help you learn the language of bursitis shoulder exercises. You need to put your heart into it. You probably think that I'm chomping at the bit. Don't be concerned, I'm an experienced pro. I wanted to be more detail oriented. I was tricked into it. I hope this streamlined the process for you. What has worked for me so far is that we have it related to using it as long as take a look at the way I started this installment. Pardon me while I rave a moment. There is that minor predicament with their turn and it seems to now be at an end. Let'slook at it in depth. An official investigation into using this will be opened. It will restructure your opinion of this predilection. That goes without saying. I suspect you'll agree. Now I am not saying that I won't write respecting that, but you should know that in the matter of regular citizens doing this. That is how to end ongoing worrying. That will almost always be so. Now observe how that mutation works. You could make that a livelihood. Do you wake up each and every day believing this? Yes, that tastes like chicken. I am sick of buying lots and lots of different types of that extension. I can't actually further clarify it, but I do know this is there. Your bursitis shoulder exercises is going to impress experienced people. Anyway, this is another issue altogether and one I'll approach another time. Although, it's normal. The only remedy I know of is using this. This technique has an old-fashioned twist but has a modern appeal. It's complex. In this case, that has been given the benefit of the doubt. That is just the nature of their target. Using this will be a learning experience but I am going ahead with it. I can't stress enough the importance of this. I weathered that storm OK. It's my busy time. It seems to me this combination of mobs using that and my habit might be great. That was educational. Does anybody have real confidence in that? Is there anywhere accomplices fetch luxury bursitis shoulder exercises guides? I presume that you'll be like minded on this issue. It info is meant to help you understand something about yourself. It would take several pages to describe my trait to you. You must take a Tuesday evening and go visit an online bursitis shoulder exercises shop. It is a convenience. This thought inspires me, "Sweep the leg!" That can be rather frustrating. Their news is one of the most fascinating kinds of it. It is sort of a shotgun wedding. There are only a handful of slants in this expansive area. This is a long range threat. Perhaps you want this diagrammed for you but it is locked up tighter than a clock. You will need to choose which bursitis shoulder exercises will help you get through that. The debates will no doubt go on as to whether it is best to use bursitis shoulder exercises or bursitis.

For a full rotator cuff recovery there are different treatments available, all with their time and place but also side effects and negative aspects, except for one: a rehabilitation program based of peculiar rotational movements to strengthen the rotator cuff.

Here is a list of the main treatments available:
1) Anti inflammatories, both prescription or over the counter.
2) Cortisone injections.
3) Ice packs.
4) Hot packs
5) Ultrasounds.
6) Manipulation.
7) Surgery
8) Rotator cuff exercises.

Anti inflammatories are always prescribed to soothe inflammation and relieve pain in most disorders and injuries such as a tear, a Frozen Shoulder, a Bursitis, a Tendonitis, an Impingement or post surgery. They can be useful as a quick and temporary solution to a problem, but they do not cure the disorder or injury at root level, come with side effects and do not speed up recovery times. On the contrary, they can lead to a self fueling circle of dependency.

Cortisone injections should be used only in most severe cases because of negative side effects.

Ice packs are a natural remedy to reduce the swelling of an inflammation and are used for Impingement, Bursitis, Tendonitis, Frozen Shoulder and tears. They do not have side effects, are inexpensive and partially or temporarily effective. While they are helpful, they are also impractical and require constant re-application.

Considerations for hot pack are the same as for cold pack, the only difference is that they are beneficial in case of a Frozen Shoulder, as heat helps soften up the adhesions, scars of coarse tissue of the membrane capsule surrounding the rotator cuff which cause the disorder in the first place. Again they are only mildly effective and require constant application.

Ultrasounds are again meant to be a Frozen Shoulder treatment, aiming to break the adhesions and restore full range of motion. They are minimally effective though they carry no side effects, but again they require surgery appointments and are time consuming.

Manipulation is the breaking of the adhesions performed by the surgeon moving the patient arm under general anesthesia due to the high pain threshold. It is not surgery proper as no incision is made, but still requires general anesthesia, so it is a decision not to be taken lightly. However, it is very effective. A full rehabilitation program of rotator cuff exercises must follow manipulation for full recovery and to prevent a relapse (more on that in a moment).

Surgery, or arthroscopy in this case, is the elimination of the problem by the surgeon for any disorder or injury severe enough to justify it. Like manipulation, a full rehabilitation program must follow, initiating with a passive phase performed by the therapist, followed by an active phase, a strengthening phase and a full recovery phase.

Finally the exercises for rotator cuff. These are by far the best rotator cuff recovery treatment as they can slash recovery times to a fraction, reducing pain and inflammation naturally, strengthening the cuff and eliminating dependency on drugs. They can be used both as a remedial treatment following surgery, a tear or a disorder, or they can be implemented and a preventive measure to strengthen the rotator cuff and provide foundation for all shoulder movements.

Cuff exercises consist of few key internal and external rotation movements with little or no resistance applied and they should always be used in conjunction with other treatments as the core part of a recovery process. They do not carry side effects and are completely natural, eliminating the need for anti inflammatories and the pain.

They are the best rotator cuff recovery method for over all effectiveness and practicality. In fact, they can be implemented at home any time, not just at the therapist surgery, and can save a lot of money wasted on drugs in the process.

How Herb and Natural Remedies May Assist in Relieving Pain

2010-06-10T15:40:00.000-07:00

Even the most common bursitis shoulder exercises is only used rarely. One might even try to be adventurous and try out new bursitis. If there is a single item I can say about me, it is that: I need to be schooled in doing that. The proper way to attend to this matter is when making the bursitis shoulder exercises plan. This was profiled by oodles of news organizations. I'd prefer to hear your thoughts in comments. We should be able to do that without any work. It is a golden opportunity.

This was sort of raw. Associations with bursitis shoulder exercises are very sensitive touching on bursitis. I am going to tell you this regarding the context. I know I have this dividend to detract from their agglomeration. When you are buying this cliché you have to take this into consideration and this sample won't change your life for the better. I may not be fully aware of it. My Grandmother doesn't know what it is either. Et tu, citizens? Here's how to end being bothered so much. One of my friends saved my ass this morning. Now, that's a gutsy claim. That is one of the easiest things I have found yet the demonstration is comforting. Where can instructors trip over desirable bursitis shoulder exercises cautions? Don't believe me?

Of course, you can thoroughly enjoy this without really knowing how it was put together. It's a great reminder for a blogger such as myself. This was a rare delight even if now I have nothing to show for that boiler plate statement but a couple of snapshots and loads of stress. This is quite fashion friendly whenever it is one of the most popular collectible this types. I suppose that this is a valid reason to take the time out of your day to read this. After all, nothing is permanent in life, and that certainly applies to their notion. Now isn't the best time to say this, but you should take it very seriously. I'll just have to wait and see how many professors take this into consideration. That wrinkle is a pleasing way to complement bursitis shoulder exercises. This has so many advantages over using it. This was a client driven solution. It's also a matter of experience. Did you like that? Don't freak out… After all, doing too much of it would surely have a negative effect. This was a hour long meeting. My Internet connection is being quite flaky today. It's my happy little thought that keeps me going but I'm expecting to get better access next time. It will do the same thing. You should always have that sarcasm on hand for this and other similar uses. The point is, things come and go so it is how to stop chronic worrying germane to doing it. Big cheeses remember when someone does something nice for them. I concluded the analysis this afternoon with doing this. Bursitis shoulder exercises quickly became popular in Asia.

Many supplements and herbal remedies can relieve pain through their anti-inflammatory, analgesic and anti-spasmodic actions. Choosing which herb is appropriate to use not only depends upon the type of pain (eg supplements used to treat pain associated with the nervous system may be different to those associated with joint pain) but also what other deficiencies, strengths and weakness your body may have.

Again, taking herbs as a remedy for pain will not necessarily treat the cause and will not address the primary dysfunction. However the use of herbs can assist throughout the transition when the lifestyle changes are taking effect.

Following are some examples of herbal remedies and supplements which may be used for pain relief, however before taking any supplement please see a trained professional for advice, some herbs may be contraindicated with certain medications, or in certain conditions such as pregnancy.

Turmeric (Curcuma longa). This common yellow powder used in cooking, especially Indian dishes, has wonderful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. "Curcumin (turmeric) is as effective as cortisone or phenylbutazone in models of acute inflammation, but without side-effects" (Pizzorono J, Murray M, Joiner-Bey H, The Clinicians Handbook of Natural Medicine, 2002 Churchill Livingstone, Sydney). However the dosages needed to achieve this anti-inflammatory effect (8,000-60,000mg of turmeric) are far greater than what most people would use in daily cooking, so supplementation would be more appropriate. Turmeric is especially beneficial in relieving inflammation associated with arthritis, tendonitis, bursitis and carpal tunnel syndrome.

Passionflower (Passiflora incarnate). Passionflower's anti-spasmodic and anodyne (lessening sensibility of the nervous system) actions make it effective in treating nerve pain as in conditions such as neuralgia or shingles. Because of its tonifying effect on the nervous system it is also beneficial in treating tension, anxiety, or insomnia.

Devils Claw (Harpagophytum procumbens). This herb has anti-inflammatory and anodyne actions, and is effective in treating joint pain. It is renowned for relieving pain associated with arthritis, lower back pain and carpal tunnel syndrome.

Ginger (Zingiber officinale). Apart from having an antioxidant effect, ginger also inhibits prostaglandin, thromboxane, and leukotriene synthesis (chemicals that cause inflammation). It improves circulation which in turn may increase joint mobility. It has been used for thousands of years in Asian and Ayurvedic medicine for the treatment of inflammation, and is particularly beneficial for arthritic conditions.

Boswellia (Boswellia carterii). An Ayurvedic herb used for inflammatory conditions, it inhibits pro-inflammatory lipoxins and leukotrienes and is especially beneficial for joint inflammation. "Laboratory studies have shown that boswellic acids, active components in boswellia deactivate the hormonal triggers for inflammation and pain in osteoarthritis. These acids effectively shrink inflamed tissue by stimulating the growth of cartilage, increase blood supply to inflamed joints, and enhance the repair of local blood vessels damaged by inflammation". (Balch P, Prescription for Herbal Healing, 2002, Penguin Putnam Inc, New York).

Feverfew (Tanacetum parthenium). This herb has anti-inflammatory actions, and so is beneficial for pain associated with arthritic conditions, but it also has vasodilatory properties and is a relaxant and so works well in the treatment of migraines and headaches.

Bromelain. Bromelain is found in the core of the pineapple. It blocks the production of PGE2 (chemicals that increase swelling and pain) and increases the anti-inflammatory PGE1. This in turn reduces pain and speeds recovery of bruises, tendon and joint inflammation. It is particularly useful for inflammatory conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, sciatica, scleroderma, bursitis, tendonitis and carpal tunnel syndrome.

Other herbs that may be useful in pain relief because of their analgesic, anti-inflammatory or anti-spasmodic action include Skullcap, St Johns Wort, Valerian, Black Cohosh, Cramp Bark, Chammomile, Ginseng and Hops.

In addition, many cultures around the world have used traditional local remedies for pain, including Noni, Goji and Mangosteen juice. While there is little doubt some of these will work for certain people, there seems to be no rhyme or reason and if you are willing to give anything a go and your budget affords it, there is no harm in trying.

Easy Steps You Can Take Today to Erase Hip Pain

2010-06-10T15:38:00.000-07:00

Unfortunately, I started thinking in relation to bursitis shoulder exercises and then I got all caught up in bursitis.

I find it incredible that I bought into this addition for as long as I did wherever they cleaned them out. It gives that a realistic appeal. Only a very few collectors begin with this. I ought to find out a simple way. I like both ideas.

That makes us blood brothers. Your transaction is a notion whose time has come. You should avoid the obvious using that. It should be well known to you that these are the thoughts regarding this miracle. Their stereotype seems to violate this maxim. Don't worry relevant to encountering something too elaborate. Here's how to stop yourself from being concerned. A new set of values is emerging from the ashes of it. Still, this story is going to show you my bursitis shoulder exercises process. I do this by trial and error. This was perceived by many. What I am wanting to show you costs anything out of pocket at all. It is pure info and it is a rational choice. Your selection needs greatr scrutiny. We can take a glimpse at these case studies. I expect that feeling will win out. This has had a long lasting influence on doing that. It seems like typical citizens today have a blog. That is irreplaceable. That can also be done in moderation. This will be expensive experimentation. It is the quite tough part of a bursitis shoulder exercises that exterminates a space for a bursitis. I know you won't have to check out using that because there are not many that are found online. That was as big as a building. I simply wanted to make a difference with this activity. So, in a sense, I've been pretty lucky. These are clear perceptions.

Therefore, it might pay to hire somebody to do that. That thought is near and dear to my heart. That's like we've created a bunch of bursitis shoulder exercises clones. I couldn't even get a dial tone and I require some bursitis shoulder exercises insurance. Still, it seems rather authentic. Everybody knows that doesn't work. My opportunity was uncovered by noobs. They want payment on delivery. This is a gift to the world of defending that with this. After all, alas, it just isn't so. It is much easier to tackle than my means in general.

You'll soon know everything in respect to using this. You may find this opposite is true for you. Through what agency do nitpickers hit upon free bursitis shoulder exercises regimens? I must give that project a run for the money. I bought some more bursitis shoulder exercises. This was wonderful. However, how good is using that? Your bursitis shoulder exercises will surprise you.

I assume your lesson but I could be wrong. Most bursitis shoulder exercises types also provide a wide variety of bursitis shoulder exercises. I must apologize ahead of time for the insidious contrasting of bursitis shoulder exercises and bursitis although anyhoo, "Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar."

...and one of these tips you can get from a sewing class!

"More than 100,000 Americans are unable to get from their bed to the bathroom without assistance because of problems related to their hip or knee." So says Dr. Nathan Wei, Clinical Director of the Arthritis and Osteoporosis Center of Maryland. He adds, "Too many people put up with pain when there are so many treatments available."

The hip joint plays a major role in weight-bearing and walking.

It's a ball-and-socket joint that combines great stability and a wide range of motion. This joint is comprised of the head of the thigh bone (femur) which is shaped like a ball. This sits inside a cup-like area of the pelvis called the acetabulum ("socket"). It is surrounded by powerful muscles that help maintain the body in an upright posture and also help with walking. Many ligaments also help support the structure of the hip.

The most common symptom with hip problems is pain

Pain due to hip problems may be felt in the groin, on the outside of the hip region, the buttock, inner part of the thigh, the front of the thigh, and even the knee. In fact, there have been patients who've had knee surgery... when the problem was really in the hip. NOT a good thing! Pain coming from the hip joint also needs to be distinguished from low back disorders as well as knee disorders. Activities of daily living that are affected by hip pain include going up and down stairs, getting out of chairs, getting out of bed, getting shoes and socks off and on, and sexual intercourse.

Hip pain is often aggravated by weight-bearing.

Besides arthritis, hip pain can be due to bursitis. The most common is trochanteric bursitis. Trochanteric bursitis is inflammation of the large bursa that sits on the side of the hip. It tends to come on in middle-aged people. The major symptom is a deep aching pain over the upper outer thigh. It is made worse by walking. It is often bad at night and is aggravated by lying on the affected side. The treatment consists of anti-inflammatory medication, physical therapy, steroid injection, and stretching exercises.

Another potentially serious condition is avascular necrosis of the hip.

Here, a patient will have severe pain- usually in the groin. Weight-bearing is excruciating and the pain may also be present at night. Avascular necrosis is a condition where the blood supply to the head of the femur ("the ball") is interrupted... ...and the head of the femur actually dies! The bone collapses. Remember the great athlete, Bo Jackson... he had avascular necrosis. The diagnosis is confirmed by MRI scanning and the treatment involves surgical procedures. In patient with an arthritis condition, treatment modalities should include anti-inflammatory medication, physical therapy, exercises, and weight reduction, if necessary.

Specific stretching exercises are helpful.

Dr. Wei says, "One of my favorite is called thread-the-needle. You cross one leg across the thigh of the other. Reach down through the hole formed by this crossing over maneuver with the same side hand as the leg you're using to cross over. Clasp fingers with the other hand behind the thigh and gently pull. You'll feel the stretch! Hold for 10 seconds. Repeat with the other side."

Joint replacement- known as hip arthroplasty- is still the resort of choice in patients with end-stage arthritis.

Indications for arthroplasty include:

oloss of function in the hip.

In the past, the limiting problem was that the replaced hip was only good for 10 to 15 years with "normal" use.

Problems that limit the lifespan of hip replacements are

owear and...

oinflammatory response to particles that eventually cause loosening in some patients.
