Default Posting for ibby

Ibby is having a lot of trouble right now and an email of suppport would be a good idea for those who know her. She is at "ibbykenna@hotmail.com". The rest will explain itself I think:


the chiro here took xrays which showed my misalignment pattern (skull-atlas-axis) had actually reversed. so it seems i had 3 faulty adjustments after the t'giving crash. no wonder i wasn't getting better.

the chiro here is studying neurology. he is trying to help align my vertebra so there is no pressure on the brainstem causing compression on the nerves, vagus incluuded, michael. as an aside, i just learned that the extremity nerves are in the perimeter of the spinal column. that would explain alot - tremor, pain, rigidity,'gait' probs, etc.

anyway i am having trouble holding the adjustments, in great part due to the 'wearing off dyskinesia' ie drug withdrawal. i experience small subtle improvements as long as it holds. the change in the lineup of my head and neck is quite apparant to all who look. is YOUR head on straight??

paula, there IS something on the shelf already. it is not, however, pharmaceutical, which is why we never hear anything about it.

the other thing is, IT TAKES A VILLAGE, by which i mean the care and coordination of multi-therapies. upper cervical chiroipractic, massage, physical therapy, oxygen therapy, physical therapy
neurology, etc. it is sooooo hard to try to incorporate and co-ordinate htis stuff -- especiially when disabled. duh.

i would like to see mjf take all that money and establish residential healing centers utilizing the proven natural therapies above and more. wouldn't it be grand to all get together and HEAL!

we need to stop medicalizing the problem of pd and recognize it for what it is.


thanks for posting for me, rick. ibby
