MEZEREUM is very useful for an acute ciliary neuralgia following excision of the eyeball.  You will find MEZEREUM is very often extremely helpful, particularly if the patient gets – as so many do – a horrible sensation of coldness in the eye socket from which the eyeball has been removed.  It is quite a common complaint after excision and it is very marked in MEZEREUM, which gives enormous relief in these cases.

Introduction:

 Physical manipulation techniques have been known to several ancient cultures. Chinese literature dating back to 2700 B.C. refers to manipulation as a healing technique and there is evidence in literature that, the Greeks, Romans, Egyptians, Syrians and Aztecs practiced these techniques.

Hippo crates, the Father of Medicine noted:

One or more vertebrae of the spine may or may not go out of place… They might give way very little, and if they do they are likely to produce serious complications and even death, if not properly adjusted… many diseases are related to the spine.

 The origin of Modern Chiropractic:

 The word Chiropractic is derived from the words, “Cheiro” and “practikos” and when combined together, means DONE BY THE HANDS.  Daniel David Palmer coined this phrase and he is considered to be the father of modern Chiropractic.

Palmer faced a lot of ridicule by doctors of his time in the early 1900’s, but it has been discovered that some cases of deafness caused by circulatory problems can be remedied by manipulation.  Professor Bechgaard of Denmark brought out these benefits of Chiropractic to the scientific world in 1963.

The Spinal Column and Chiropractic:

 The spinal cord passes through a series of stacked-up vertebrae and between two vertebrae there are cushions called as the ‘Inter-vertebral discs”.  At various intervals, nerve connections branch off the spinal cord various parts of the body and it is at these linkage points that stress and pain occur.  Chiropractic specialists manipulate the spine and reduce the stress and pain and re-align the spine.

Chiropractors believe that man’s body structure is inherently unsuitable for the strains of vertical posture; and believe that man’s framework has not sufficiently evolved to sustain the strain of being erect.  The sheer weight of gravity causes a great strain on many body parts such as; intestines, arteries, veins – producing hernias and circulatory problems.  Many of these ailments impinge upon the spine.

Conclusion:

Chiropractic is a Holistic therapy that is becoming popular in the United States and it has been recognized as a mainstream therapy and most insurance companies cover patients for this therapy.

TIPS FROM THE MASTERS…

 As a preventive of Diphtheria, MERC CYANATUS ranks high, perhaps equaling, if not exceeding; DIPHTHERINUM when given in the 30x, or C C potencies.  Hering quotes from Allef. Hom Zgt-vol – 88: page 92 thus: “If the remedy is given in the stage of invasion, i.e. before exudation is deposited it will not appear at all; as a prophylactic, it is equally effective.  Paralysis and other diseases have not been observed after the use of this drug.  Several Physicians have never seen any results from it because they give the 2^nd and 3^rd triturition or dilution, which is much too strong, or rather, not sufficiently developed.”  I have had the opportunity of confirming the above, both curatively as a preventive.

Dr. A Pulford, M.D.

Introduction:

Zero balancing therapy is a powerful body mind therapy that uses skilled touch to address the relationship between energy and the structures of the body. It was developed by Fritz Smith, MD in the early 1970s.  The therapy typically lasts for 30 to 45 minutes, the practitioner uses finger pressure and gentle traction on areas of tension in the bones, joints and soft tissue to create fulcrums, or points of balance, around which the body can relax and reorganize.

 Zero Balancing focuses primarily on key joints of our skeleton that conduct and balance forces of gravity, posture and movement.  Zero Balancing helps to clear blocks in the body’s energy flow, amplify vitality and contribute to better postural alignment. A Zero Balancing session leaves you with a wonderful feeling of inner harmony and organization.

Benefits of Zero Balancing therapy:

Zero Balancing can help relieve body aches and pain, release restrictions in movement, and provide lasting relief from emotional distress to improve overall quality of life.  It is very useful for certain cases of chronic back pain. It also improves concentration and sleep by releasing unwanted stress, eliminating old behavior patterns, or boosting a sense of well-being. Zero Balancing works in conjunction with medical therapy and is not a substitute for it.

Zero Balancing helps to free the flow of energy in the musculoskeletal system to help relieve stress and boost your body’s natural energy.  Zero Balancing helps open stuck areas in the body’s natural shock absorbers: the tarsal bones in the arches of the feet, the joints where the ribs meet the spine, the neck, the hips and the sacrum. Once these areas are free, the pain is released and it enhances stability, balance and freedom

Zero Balancing helps to create a wonderful feeling of inner and outer balance, alignment and organization. When blocks are cleared and balanced one experiences a sense of renewed freedom, a sense of connection, peace and happiness

Conclusion:

Zero balancing is a wonderful Alternative therapy and it releases mental, emotional and physical tension. Zero Balancing helps patients to feel better equipped to handle daily pressures.
