PREVENTION, CONTROL AND CURE OF ARTHRITIS Have you ever heard that there is nothing that can be done about Arthritis? Its not true! An Aunt of mine was having a terrible time earlier this year with bad arthritis of her spine causing so much pain she couldn’t move. Unfortunately she is not in the States and I could not get to her. She told me she was hospitalized and was put through the ‘usual’ paces. MRI’s, Spinal taps and injections, pain medications and anti-inflammatories and then the usual ‘nothing can be done’. My first thought was: that’s a lot of money, time, energy and pain to end up with “nothing”. My second was : Of course something can be done, they are just staying with the same old paradigm. One of the most magnificent things about the body is its ability to heal itself, those of us who practice traditional medicine just need to learn to tap into that ability. If we do, the sky is the limit, we will even ‘find’ the cure for cancer! As always prevention is better than cure but what do you do if you are already afflicted? I have read 9 books on Arthritis over the past month (I am happy to share the titles with anyone who is interested) and I am so excited about the information I was going to discuss it this afternoon at my ‘Skin” seminar! Not that arthritis and skin are not related because they are, but it certainly is a stretch on the ‘looking great for the holidays’ theme! (By the way for those of you who keep asking me ‘when is your next seminar’, arranging a huge seminar like the last one is really time consuming so I will be doing mini-seminars at my office and sharing new information periodically.) So why the excitement? I do believe that arthritis can be prevented, contained and cured! But not by managing it the way we are taught in medical school. i.e take anti-inflammatories to decrease the inflammation while your joints get worse and you suffer from the side effects. Oh, and then when it completely breaks down replace the joint with an artificial one. I now believe that the non pharmaceutical measures you can take are much more powerful than drugs for the treatment and prevention of arthritis. These do not suppress the symptoms while the disease gets worse, they stop it. So here’s a summary of what may be needed: Oral Hygiene measures. Dietary changes. Healthy Oils Supplements Vitamins Exercises Maintain a healthy weight Antimicrobials when indicated Allergy testing Balance your Hormones Nothing invasive! If you have an interest in generating a personalized program for arthritis treatment then please feel free to schedule a consultation. If you have arthritis personally or in your family I would strongly encourage you to do so SOONER than later. (Those of you who signed up for today’s seminar will be mailed the supplement sheet we prepared for today). Yours in health Dr. Tuakli
