Notes from the field - brain and cord

HI - this is the sort of report that makes FSM so rewarding - you just have to love being us  this is one of many notes sent in by this occupational therapist from a regional hospital who treats brain and spinal cord injuries with FSM. This is from Mike:

“I had another recent exciting case (this is the “short” version)…they weren’t in the hospital–it was someone that I had treated with Cranio-sacral in the past–she called and asked me to work on her husband.  He fell and hit his head in December and lost his LT memory–didn’t know her, himself, family, etc….The medical system said he had alzheimer’s and wouldn’t release him to return to work.  I was able to work with him twice using Cranio-sacral and FSM–only had the Custom Care, so I used the newest Dura protocal (got it from the PT from Michigan–Vanessa Cayle…), concussion, and brain fog over 2 sessions.  Each time he got off the table, he immediately recalled new personal information about himself/family and began being active again at home!!  They were thrilled and so was I!!!  They haven’t been able to come back yet….but I think I’ll hear from them soon!Thanks again for all you do and all you’ve given to the medical world—it truly has been a career changing experience for me and is a life changing experience for all those I come in contact with!!

By the way, the 15 y.o. female that I presented at the symposium stopped by the rehab unit a couple weeks ago—no assistive devices including AFO’s, etc.  She says she has NO deficits at all—and she was coming to sign up to talk to people with SCI’s in the future!!!  She knows that FSM made the difference for her!!!!!

Ok, Good night for now!!

Notes from the field - Parkinson’s

Filed under: Uncategorized — Admin at 12:47 am on Monday, April 13, 2009

This case report came in tonight from one of our practitioners. I had to share it! At some point when we have enough such cases we’ll be able to do a proper study on FSM in Parkinson’s. In the meantime FSM practitioners can change the world one patient at a time.


We are seeing extremely successful results using the Parkinson’s protocol that was provided in the advanced binder.  We have an advanced Parkinson’s patient who has been on a rapid decline over the past few months, to the point that he was barely able to walk into the treatment room on the day we ran the protocol for him the first time.  He had severe facial rigidity, difficulty speaking, could not get out of a chair without help, severe tremors in his left arm and leg, and was unable to fully extend his arms.  We started treating him with the protocol on 2/25/09 and he showed really good results after that first treatment.  He has been treated with the same program (along with “Short Concussion Protocol” and some energy balancing) approx. a week and a half apart since then.  Yesterday he was in for treatment and to pick up his own custom care unit.  I have video of him dancing!  According to both him and his wife, after a treatment, all of his symptoms are gone for 5 days.  When they return, they return as a little slowing in movement, mild tremors that only occur at night when he is going to sleep, and a mild increase in fatigue.  He will be running this protocol (along with other supportive programs) at home twice a week for the next month.  I will let you know how that goes.  The only addition that I made to the protocol in the binder is that I added  / Basal Ganglia to his program.

 

We have 2 other early stage Parkinson’s patients that just got started on their treatments, and we are seeing good results with them as well.

 

I just have to say thank you very much for all that you do and for bringing FSM into the health care field.

 

Blessings, Kristina
