Re: Chelation and Acupuncture / TCM

[Guest guest]

Bill,

I am not sure about the combination of chelation and accupuncture

However, I used to have a lot of accupuncture treatments done a few

years ago before I started to focus in on the mercury. The benefits

would be very short lived in my treatments (sometimes half a day)

My accupuncturist would tell me that my liver/gallbladder/lungs/heart

were detoxing heavily and therefore benefitting from accupuncture

However as I said benefits were very short lived. My opinion is that

until you have properly chelated and have some of our other

deficiencies in order (adrenals/thyroid/brain deficiences (helped by

fish oil etc) and whatever other symptoms/deficiences we have going

on) that benefits from acupuncture while noticeable are

short lived.

I think the principal of acupunture is restoring the natural flow of

energy which it seems that mercury and other related symptoms have

screwed up, so until the bigger problems are fixed, acpuncture while

restorative is limiting in long term recovery

_--my opinion only--
