Guest guest Posted November 28, 2006 Report Share Posted November 28, 2006 Rogene, I really respect your daughter for the work she does. I watched a medical show the other night that talked about the awesome results with B12 Shots for patients with Alzheimers or Dimentia. An MD was discussing his experienc while he worked in a psychiatric hospital. He said it was astounding, and very quick results. My Auntie Tille has dimentia, she's in a nursing home in Calgary. My cousin has her on some natural therapies, along with her meds, and I got excited when I saw this. She is just withering away. It's so sad for my Mom, her only living immediate family member, 2 years younger than her at 86 yrs. old. Also, difficult for my cousin, because that's how her Dad died a few years ago. It seems like her Mom is following in his footsteps. It's a tough call with people dying...I always pray for God's will to be done, so I don't interfere with his plan. It's just really tough to watch people suffer, isn't it? Love ya lots, Sunny xo -- In , Rogene S <saxony01@...> wrote: > > My daughter uses infrared with Azheimer's patients. Sometimes it's tough to know when they have aproblem - but she's seen patients go from wheelchairs to walking around in as little as five treatments, . . no placebo effect there! A study showed improvement in peripheral neuropathy in as little as one treatment. > > What's sad is that, because infrared therapy was catching on so with the senior crown, they quit covering treatments under Medicad. Because they benefit the patients so much, my daughter uses it anyway. . . Long standing diabetic wounds, bed sores and peripheral neuropathy respond well also. > > What's nice is that there are no limitations on number of treatments, and it's passive so a patient doesn't need to be attended during treatment. That's not to say a pad can be put on and forgot though (as in sleeping on a pad) . . .Little red spots will start occuring if it's left on one spot too long. > > You'd do well to read up in the benefits of infrared therapy online. I love my FAR infrared sauna . . . Whole body treatments. - much more expensive than pads or lights. I'd recommend the sauna over the pads for anyone who can afford it and who doesn't get sick from heat. Since my cast is off, I'll be using it daily to speed the healing of my arm. > > Rogene > > jumpony <ltolkin@...> wrote: > Hi Rogene, Can you tell us anything else about the infrared heating pads. What kinds of ailments does your daughter think they help? Does it really work better than a regular heating pad? They are pretty pricey, so I'm just checking before splurging. > Thanks > Laurie > On Nov 28, 2006, at 9:51 AM, Lea wrote: > > > > > Thank you dear Rogene: > > We were looking for a new heating pad, and because of your advice, we will look for this type. has to go our later today and he will look for the infrared.
