My progress so far and Alternative Healing Methods

[Guest guest]

To Notan:

 

My first mistake was calling acupuncture " alternative " healing.  It has been

around thousands of years and is just now starting to have clinical studies done

on it.  However, the Chinese have proven through their methods that it does

work. 

 

I may have mis-stated in saying in too broad terms that acupuncture cures nerve

damage.  It may not do so in all cases, such as spinal cord injuries.  But it

can do it with the nerve damage in Achalasia.  It is certainly worth a try in my

humble opinion.  I will ask my acupuncturist tonight who also has a medical

doctor degree and practiced as such in China.  I may have mis-quoted what he

said. 

 

I know a little about how acupuncture works in opening the meridians and

acupuncture points that promote healing, but I don't know a whole lot. 

 

As I said before, it is actually the body that has the power to heal itself.  So

after seven days or so, your cold will be " cured " .  You are right about that.

 

Many other alternative healing modalities such as Reiki, Healing Touch, Quantum

Touch, etc. help the body heal itself by working in the energy field and energy

centers of the body to balance it energetically so that healing can take place. 

I believe this happens with Yoga as well.  I know a little about this as I am do

Reiki and Healing Touch.

 

As far as finding reflux, I'm not an expert in this, but I did not have much

food in the esophagus as I fasted before the procedure and my esophagus does

work some of the time.  I did not question the doctor on this.  I have had

reflux symptoms in the past as well as heartburn but the reflux meds don't seem

to help me.
