I Cured My Arthritis You Can Too

I Cured My Arthritis You Can Too
Margie Garrison – “The Arthritis Lady”

Yes… I Cured My Arthritis You Can Too

From the age of 11 to age 53 I avoided holding hands; they were
painful to the touch, so puffed up, sore and hot!!!

Raising four children, of course, I had to hold their hands. I
tried so hard not to let them know how painful it was but, they
knew I was in constant pain.

I always felt bad for my husband because holding hands was
something we missed. It was hard to knit or crochet, which I
loved to do.

Walking, bending or standing for any period of time was so
painful for me. My children learned, as small children, to do
what ever they could to help around the house.

I went to over thirteen “Arthritis” specialists, which were of
little or no help.

I was prescribed many different drugs and went through all kinds
of treatments for my arthritis.

I was in so much pain that I tried anything and everything to
find relief.

I was so desperate to find something that would stop her pain
that I:

* Went to over 13 physicians, (“Arthritis Specialists”) * I took
Codeine, Darvon, Sprays and “Gold Treatments” * I was placed in
traction with a large weight to stretch her body, was tied to
the bed and couldn’t move for a week! * I was put in an upper
body cast for 3 months * I wore shoe lifts * And so much more!!!

In 1980, the last year I suffered from Arthritis, I spent an
average of $40.00 month on miscellaneous drugs, $30.00 for a
monthly doctor appointment and $30.00 on pain killers. That’s a
total of $100.00 a month. I wish I could have spent that money
on something I liked to do instead.

All the drugs, all the doctors, all the treatments, all the
money… ALL the FAILURES!!!

Doctor after doctor told me that there was no cure for arthritis
and that I should, “Take this medication, go home and learn to
live with it”. One doctor predicted that I would be in a wheel
chair within 5 years.

I was crushed… Being the eternal optimist, never gave up… I
went on a crusade to find a way to stop my arthritis. And I
did!!!

I spent many years researching arthritis, and put together this
incredible program, “I Cured My Arthritis You Can Too” , that
shows you in easy to follow steps how you can do what I did at
home, and without drugs.

I know this may sound too good to be true. But I did it… I
have gone through what you are going through right now. I have
now been living Pain Free from Arthritis for 25 years.

I am known on the World Wide Web (and elsewhere) as “The
Arthritis Lady” and am now doing something I “like” to do. I
spend most of my time answering thousands of emails and phone
calls from people who suffer with arthritis. I answers questions
and help solve their problems.

Here are just a few things people have written me…

“My wife has rheumatoid arthritis and she tried what you wrote
in your book and she has been almost totally pain free for a
month so far. Thanks for publishing your book.

Roy – Goose Creek, S.C

“I have purchased your book and it is a miracle from God. I
really believe in it. It has opened my eyes toward the right
foods we should eat to keep our bodies healthy and free from
diseases.

Evangeline – Culloden, GA

**********

“Thank the Lord and you. Your book is my companion in my quest
for health. I can’t praise it enough. You are a pioneer in the
practice of prevention in Medicine.

Mary B – Santa Cruz, CA

**********

My friend raved to me about how your book helped him. He had
taken so much Cortisone until his doctor balked at giving it to
him. My friend said he spends many painful, sleepless nights,
and that his life was pure misery. Now, some five months later,
he has no pain, and sleeps very well. He has lost some 40 pounds
and feels 20 years younger.

Lewis – Oklahoma City, Ok

“My friend is over 80 years old. She was unable to do hand work
and almost unable to walk. Now she is able to do both. Mrs. A.
Jenkins – Morango, CA

To whom it may concern,

Margie Garrison’s “I Cured My Arthritis You Can Too”: is a note
worthy milestone in the field of alternative treatment
modalities.

positive mental attitude, not only is it possible to “cure”
arthritis but also prevent it.

Her book is simply and clearly written with a number of helpful
illustrations.

home and learn to live with arthritis. “I Cured My Arthritis You

Acupuncture and Women’s Problems

Many of us know about how acupuncture can relieve stress, deaden pain, and be used for other emotional or mental purposes. It is also very useful for a number of problems that women face, from menstrual problems up to the problem of infertility. We will look at a couple of examples to show that acupuncture can be an asset in each case. Of course, you will want to consult your individual acupuncture professional to determine the specific treatment for an individual case.

The first case is a lady with painful and irregular menstrual periods. She gets depressed and irritable, and when she gets angry the pain increases. The first thing to notice about this case is the connection between the cause, menstruation, and the symptoms, which are both physical (pain), mental (irritability), and emotional (anger). The acupuncture practitioner is interested in all of these, and symptoms of whatever kind should be reported. Notice also the connection that she sees between increased pain when she is angry, which is also important. A simple analysis of this pinpoints anger and irritability as a log jam of energy in some location in the body. The irregular occasion of the periods suggests the liver. A series of acupuncture visits cleared up the pain and emotional connections to her periods.

A second case is a lady who is going through “the change”, and having a hard time with hot flashes and lower back pain. Her acupuncture practitioner talked about the energy around the kidney organ, and that, as we age, there is less kidney energy, and menstruation ceases. The kidney energy has two aspects, Yin and Yang, and hot flashes indicate too much Yang, and the pain in her lower back confirms the Kidney, as that is where it is located. Another common symptom of this, though not in this case, is the symptom of “ringing in the ears”. An acupuncture regime for the kidney is prescribed to rebalance the energy and eliminate the symptoms.

The next case is a thirty-six year old woman who cannot conceive. She has already gone through standard western testing, and all hormone levels are acceptable, but nothing has occurred. She normally has somewhat irregular periods, and she is somewhat given to depression. This sounds somewhat similar to the first case because of the irregular periods, and indeed, the liver is included as part of this treatment. Also, from the second case, the kidney energy regulates menstruation, so this organ too is involved in the acupuncture treatment. A second implication of energy problems with the liver is the tendency toward depression.

So, acupuncture has well established treatments for a number of common female problems, and if you suffer from any of these, please ask your acupuncture practitioner. Some of these are treated with more consistent success, for example, the third case illustrated has not yet seen a resolution of her problem. Also notice from the third case, that often western medicine and acupuncture can go hand in hand, as this lady’s regular physician had no problem with her seeking a series of acupuncture treatments as a possible solution. One thing that should be emphasized is that the acupuncture treatment is only a manipulation with needles, and involves no medicines whatsoever in these cases. For those of you with menopause or menstruation problems, this has many advantages. Call your acupuncture practitioner.

How to treat Rheumatoid Arthritis

How to treat Rheumatoid Arthritis
Mike

Arthritis is the term used for over 100 rheumatoid and joint related diseases, with the most common being Osteoarthritis and Rheumatoid Arthritis.
The word arthritis refers to “joint inflammation” and rheumatoid arthritis is actually an attack on the immune system where the system turns on itself and attacks the joints.
Rheumatoid arthritis causes joint pain and swelling, redness, warmth and can affect other organs of the body like skin, eyes, lungs, heart, blood, nerves or kidneys. Rheumatoid arthritis affects approximately 1% of the population, in which 75% of those diagnosed are women. The exact cause of rheumatoid arthritis is unknown, but scientists attribute this disease to a combination of genetic, environmental and hormonal factors. With rheumatoid arthritis, something seems to trigger the immune system to attack itself. This could happen after a sudden trauma or a surgery, and the severity is not the same in all people. Some theories suggest that a virus or bacteria alter the immune system. Therefore, since the root cause of rheumatoid arthritis is so different from osteoarthritis, of course the treatment and remedies are different also.
Rheumatoid arthritis is diagnosed by a positive Rh factor, (a blood test), and x-rays that show rheumatoid deterioration in the joints. There are many different ways to treat rheumatoid arthritis, which include medication, rest, exercise and surgery. The medications fall into two specific categories, NSAIDs and DMARDs, and attempt to reduce the pain, swelling and inflammation. Humira, one of the latest discoveries, attempts to isolate the diseased cells so they cannot reproduce and cause more harm.
In the past 10 years, alternative medicine has also taken a predominant place in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis.
Some of these non-prescription methods include:
* ibuprofen
* herbs such as cat’s claw and white willow to reduce pain
* glucosamine and chondriton are used to promote new cartilage growth
* warm baths in Epsom Salts
* application of menthol ointment to the affected joints
Rheumatoid arthritis is not to be taken lightly or ignored, so investigate the treatments and choose the best for yourself.
