Holistic Healing Is For Everyone

Today is Jan. 12 and a friend of mine has asked me to accompany her to an alternative practitioner in Huntsville, Ontario. I will call her Sue.

For years, my dear friend Sue, has suffered from anxiety and depression. She is presently suffering physical symptoms such as skin lesions, intense hot flashes, and general malaise, as well as a cyst on her ovaries and intense abdominal pain. She has attended all manner of classes over the years, attempting to find the root of her problems – meditation, self-improvement, self-awareness etc.. She has finally managed to wean herself from the anti-depressant drugs she has been taking for years, and she no longer takes a popular statin drug for cholesterol that we know is so dangerous to the cells of our bodies. She began taking Usana Health Sciences vitamins several years ago and her bone density increased by 6% in one year.

The night before Sue’s appointment, this alternative practitioner reviewed Sue’s answers to a questionnaire. These answers, he discussed during the appointment. Putting the pieces of her illness puzzle together, he administered live as well as dry blood cell analysis. His conclusions were presented, not as a list of symptoms to be named and dealt with individually using drugs, but as pieces of a puzzle that connect to the whole person, pieces that must be viewed in a logical, sequential manner in order for her inner healer to be revived so that her body can begin functioning once again as an integrated whole. This is the same philosophy employed at Sanoviv Medical Institute in Mexico.

My friend’s liver was fatty. Her MD had discovered this also, but he told her this was normal. It is NOT normal! Now that she knows this, her first step is to improve the health of her liver. Once this is done, detoxification of the rest of her body can begin. Toxins are always eliminated through the liver, and so, the liver must be strong and healthy in order to deal with detoxification. Sue’s blood samples indicated the presence of heavy metals, an abundance of fats in the blood, poor protein assimilation, candida yeast and numerous other undesireable conditions. As soon as her blood sample appeared on the screen, I knew that she had a multitude of problems. I have had my own live blood cell analysis done at Sanoviv and I know what good blood is supposed to look like. Clumping of Sue’s cells indicated that oxygenation was likely poor, enzyme deficiency was pervasive and there was also indication of chemicals in her blood.

Sue’s first visit was 3 hours in length. When was the last time a Canadian doctor was able to give you the priviledge of even a half hour? When have you ever had a Canadian doctor discuss thoroughly, the results of your blood analysis? When have you ever had your doctor look at all of your symptoms, and realize that the solution is not drugs, but the healthy, synergistic functioning of your bodily systems so that all of these undesireable symptoms can be encouraged to disappear? My guess is that like the medical doctors I have approached, yours have attempted to look at each symptom individually, and prescribe a drug for each one. Either that, or you have been labelled a hypochondriac!

Sue’s next visit is in a week and she will then begin enzyme therapy designed to improve her absorption of nutrition. She was horrified to discover that all the wonderful Usana vitamins she has been taking have not been optimally absorbed because of her poor gut conditions preventing proper assimilation. With enzyme therapy, this situation will be resolved. She will also be given nutritional advice and a proper dietary plan will be developed.

As for her anxiety and depression, once proper digestion and assimilation and strengthening of her cells is realized, these emotional conditions will likely disappear. So often, we think that our emotional state causes poor physical health, which of course is possible, but doesn’t it make more sense to first assume the opposite, get our physical body as healthy as possible, and then see if our anxiety or depression disappears?

I am thrilled for my friend. She has suffered too long with her symptoms, and she has been on too many debilitating drugs. It will be exciting over the next few months to watch her transform. How do I know this is possible? Because at Sanoviv, I have seen this process begin in just days with most patients, and I have observed people go from a state of hopelessness to hope in a very brief time once their healing is managed properly by practitioners who know what they are doing.
