Dear Colleagues:
I hope you all are well. I hope to be able to settle in back home for awhile. I spent the first part of March at baseball spring training as I wrote about last time. Then after a week at home, I attended the annual Ski With Wally Seminar. I highly recommend this yearly seminar. Some of the best practitioners in the country regularly attend and Wally was great as always. Then I went back down to spring training. I picked up 2 new patients, both #1 draft picks who will be in the minors this year. One technique I utilize that seems to always help batting average is I use a strong indicator muscle and then have the player track my finger in 8 different positions (dividing a clock into 8) and after each tracking- I check the indicator muscle for weakening. Most athletes weaken in at least one position. To fix, I rub K-27 while the eyes are in that position and it typically holds quite a long time. Another technique I also do is repeated fast muscle testing on a strong indicator muscle. Most players weaken after just 4-6 tests which indicates a need for EFA’s and when you expose them to the right EFA combination and redo the test you can test almost indefinitely without weakening (I usually stop after 25 tests). With these 2 players, both needed Basic Nutrients by Thorne (1-800-228-1966). One also needed L-Carnitine (Thorne) and TheraSupreme (Mid American 1-800-922-1744) and both needed Artic Omega by Nordic Naturals. A typical first exam on a professional athlete includes running them through my whole protocol as taught in our DVD’s (dysbiosis, foods, metals, organs etc), manual muscle testing of almost all the muscles taught by Alan Beardall DC, gait testing, adjusting subluxations and eye tracking tests. I like to follow up within a week to recheck and also fine tune (testing muscles in specific positions, etc). In this case I didn’t have a chance
since spring training ended shortly thereafter. It will be interesting to see how they do and hopefully I can do a follow up or two
during the season. The one player I had begun with at the start of spring training batted .500 during spring training (of course you can’t expect that to be kept up throughout the season)
CASE HISTORIES
1. Joe is a 44 year old veterinarian, who first came in January 2008 with chronic psoriasis as well as sleep apnea. He was also about 30 pounds overweight. He weakened on the mixed fungus vial (AK Test Kits 1-888-323-0625) as well as the dairy and wheat vials. We desensitized him and took him off refined sweetening, fermented foods, and wheat and dairy. We supplemented with Morinda Supreme and Thera Supreme (Mid American Marketing), Cal-Mag Citramate (Thorne) and a probiotic. I didn’t get to recheck Joe for 6 weeks due to my travelling. On the return visit he had lost 25 pounds, had increased energy, and much improved psoriasis. He no longer had sleep apnea. What interesting is he is one of 4-5 sleep apnea patients we had greatly helped over the past year. I treat the sleep apnea MD in town for a back problem and he knows of our results on his patients but never refers anyone. Oh well.
2. Shelia is a 30 year old acupuncturist I treat about 2-3 times a year (she treats me on occasion too). She came in early February after returning from Indonesia 3 weeks prior. Her major complaint was rectal bleeding since the trip along with sporadic nausea. She weakened on the following vials (AK Test Kits): Mixed Parasites, Mixed Fungus, Mixed Protozoa, Mixed Chlamydia. We supplemented with Morinda Supreme and Bodyguard Supreme (Mid American Marketing) and B- Complex #5. We rechecked her 5 weeks later (my travel schedule again). She reported that the rectal bleeding stopped approximately one day after starting the supplements. She tested like she needed to stay on Morinda and we added Thera Supreme (Mid American) and L-Tyrosine (Thorne).
