Here are the modalities I employ to help me heal rheumatoid arthritis.
Integrative Medicine and Diagnostics
Medicine is the art and science of healing.
Natural Medicine and Conventional Medicine Diagnostics are a necessity in the Intergrative Medicine Approach and include the components of a nature based relationship with our environment and body as well as the conventional study and approach of science and medicine. In my experience, the cannot be separate and be effective in treating disease.
Biological Dentistry
Biological Dentistry stresses the use of nontoxic restoration materials for dental work and focuses on the impact that dental toxins and hidden dental infections have on overall health. It has been estimated by European researchers that as much as half of all chronic degenerative illness can be traced to dental problems and modern dentistry's reliance on traditional techniques to treat them. Unlike the traditional approach, biological dentistry treats the teeth, jaw and related structures with the assumption that treatment affects the entire body.
Organic and Natural Nourishment
Natural food from natural sources is pivotal to ones healing of dis-ease. An organic diet of seasonally approriate fruit, vegtables, nuts, seeds, meat and fish are the buidling blocks of our health. Chemical dependant products found in the fast food and processed food is not nourishment and will only harm you.
Detoxification
The metabolic process by which the toxic qualities of a poison or toxin are reduced by the body.
Heat therapy- Infrared
the use of infrared radiation (as by infrared lamps or heating pads or hot water bottles) to relieve pain and increase circulation to a particular area of the body
"In summary, electromedicine in its various forms is fast becoming one of the primary safe, efficacious and cost effective treatments of choice as we enter the 21st century."
Like in any therapy please note:
"Electrical stimulation that is intended to effect changes anywhere in the body can only be successful if the necessary nutrients are available when the treatment is applied. For example, researchers believe that CES helps recovering addicts by stimulating the brain to make more endorphins, but these can only be produced if the requisite amino acids and other nutrients are present in the diet and in an available form. Similarly, microcurrent stimulation of damaged tissue can not instigate, or potentiate the rate of body repair if the requisite nutrients are not available at the damaged site, just as electromagnetic bone healers can not be expected to be successful if insufficient calcium is available at the fracture site, among a multitude of other required nutrients."
In addiction to improving and/or changing the diet one must also, search for, and find the cause of the affliction and remove it - or a permanent cure is not likely.

Oxygen Therapy
Oxygen therapy is a form of treatment based upon the premise that all harmful bacteria, viruses and fungi (e.g. flu, colds, AIDs, candida albicans and cancerous cells) are anaerobic - they can only thrive in low oxygen environments. Conversely, to maintain good health, the human body requires a rich supply of oxygen.
Causes of oxygen depletion
There are a number of reasons why oxygen levels are restricted to human tissue.
Environmental:
At sea level, approximately 20 per cent of the atmosphere is supposed to be oxygen, but due to the high levels of smog and low numbers of trees in cities, the available amount of oxygen can reduced to 10 per cent.
Carbon monoxide fumes from cars strip oxygen molecules from the blood.
Tap water is very low in oxygen because its journey through lead pipes and the addition of chlorine and other chemical contaminants prevent it from being aerated.
Dietary:Cooking or heating food reduces the oxygen content in vegetables and fruits, and processed foods have little or no oxygen content. In 1961, Dr R.A. Holman M.D., senior lecturer in Bacteriology, School of Medicine at the University of Wales stated that the answer to cancer lies in ‘the fundamental catalase-peroxide mechanism of our own cells’... ‘to this end, it is urgently required that a concerted effort be made at an international level to curtail the intake of catalase-inhibiting agents, whether in the air, food, drink, drugs or radiation to which we are exposed.’ He went on to suggest that ‘this plan should be coupled with a campaign to increase the intake of catalase by the consumption of fresh, living foodstuffs together with a re-education of man to use his animal body in the way for which it was designed’.(1)
This, of course, supports the current day notion that a diet high in fibre made up largely from fresh, organic fruits and vegetables together with moderate aerobic exercise and adequate rest and relaxation is the best prescription for health. However, once the body’s natural defence systems have been broken down through an unhealthy lifestyle, there comes a point when patients are unable to obtain sufficient oxygen through diet and lifestyle to regain health. And, perhaps this is where oxygen therapy offers potential help.
There are two main methods of Oxygen therapy is through Hydogen Peroxide and Ozone treatment.
Ozone treatment
Ozone treatment involves forcing oxygen through a metal tube carrying a 300 volt charge. A pint of blood is then drawn from the patient and placed into an infusion bottle. Ozone is then forced int the bottle and mixed so that the ozone molecues dissolve into the blood and, in so doing, destroy all lipid-envelope virus and many disease organisms, but leave the blood unharmed. The treated blood is then returned to the patient. It is claimed that the treated blood transfers its virucidal properties to the rest of the patient’s blood as it disperses.
Hydrogen peroxideHydrogen peroxide, when exposed to your blood or other body fluids containing the enzyme ‘catalase’ is chemically split into oxygen and water. Many people have experienced the foaming effect produced by putting hydrogen peroxide on a wound; the foam is oxygen being produced by the action of catalase on the hydrogen peroxide.
Hydrogen peroxide may be injected directly into the bloodstream or taken orally. In the USA, licenced physicians administer injections. However, a much simpler method of oxygen therapy is oral administration, the only drawback being the somewhat bleachy, unpleasant taste.
Did you know...
that, in Nature, rain, snow and droplets on plants have all been shown to contain small concentrations of Hydrogen peroxide. The rishest natural source of peroxidase in plants are horseradish, potatoes and chestnuts.

Chiropractic
A system of diagnosis and treatment based on the concept that the nervous system coordinates all of the body's functions, and that disease results from a lack of normal nerve function. Chiropractic employs manipulation and adjustment of body structures, such as the spinal column, so that pressure on nerves coming from the spinal cord due to displacement (subluxation) of a vertebral body may be relieved. Practitioners believe that misalignment and nerve pressure can cause problems not only in the local area, but also at some distance from it. Chiropractic treatment appears to be effective for muscle spasms of the back and neck, tension headaches, and some sorts of leg pain. It may or may not be useful for other ailments.

Kinesiology
Essentially, Kinesiology as used in the complementary health field, is defined primarily as the use of muscle testing to identify imbalances in the body's structural, chemical, emotional or other energy, to establish the body's priority healing needs, and to evaluate energy changes brought about by a broad spectrum of both manual and non-manual therapeutic procedures.
Meditation
To quiet the mind and remove the ego and let peace be your companion.
Spiritual Psychology
Transpersonal psychology is a school of psychology that studies the transpersonal, self-transcendent or spiritual aspects of the human experience.

Vocational Rehabilitaton
Vocational Rehabilitation is a plan prepared with a team of therapists that will enable the patient to return to work in coordination with the clinical team, help coordinate and explain disability benefits, and work with employers to ensure good career matches and suitable accommodations for the patient in the work place. This encourages healing, participation,contribution and elevates ons self confidence ...and evidently self healing.

Medical Counselling
Medical counseling involves a combination of medical, holistic, and mind-body techniques that reduce stress and anxiety, and promote healing. It also gives an informed assessment of the options and services available to your particular situation and helps navigate the often daunting and confusing world of the healthcare system.
