Guest guest Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 hi, this is Quincia. I founded the alternative treatment group based on the principles stated below. , thank you for being positive and respectful to the group. we are not a group of people or Achalasian who are proactively against conventional treatments like botox, dialation or HM. we have common understanding that those treatments are more or less invasive. And for those of us who are not psychologically or financially or physically ready for those conventional treatments, or for those who are patiently waiting to have surgery, we try to fiure out a more effective way to control and manage the disorder or cope with the disorder by using some conservative/alternative treatments like acupuncture, herbal tea, eating and life style changes, vitamin and etc. and we share our stories and founding with the rest of the group members. we do respect our group members' decision and value their feedback and suggestion. We are not selling any drug or health product. if anyone have this feeling that we are a group of people who are selling any product, I will have to ask him or her to re-adjust their thought. for me, I am doing fairly well. you can join our group to see our progress. ===================================================================== Discussion on experience about alternative treatment for Achalasia.
