Natural Options to Reverse Parkinsons Symptoms

Recovery from Parkinson’s Disease

Hi Robert: I have been continuing to follow your work and today I just felt compelled to write and convey my deep appreciation for you for my recovery from Parkinson’s disease. Your work is invaluable and the information you provide is the most probative for anyone interested in recovery from Parkinson’s and other forms of chronic illness. I know that I have already indicated my appreciation in times past but I felt the need to do so again.

Robert, before I was diagnosed I was a mess, my hands, legs, head and entire body would shake. I have never been fond of doctors and always felt it would somehow subside, I finally went to see my general physician who said I had some sort of advanced PD, he recommended me to a neurologist who told me the same. Not wanting to accept this PD business I just continued to ignore it, then one day I was with my children at the mall and fell down a long flight of steps and unable to get up.

Still resistant I did agree to talk with Abraham Lieberman and he and I wrote back and forth for a long time, he agreed to treat me at no cost but I would of course have to get to Miami, instead he procured an appointment with Dr. Jankovic at Baylor University. They examined me for 4 hours and the diagnoses was the same. I started the medications that improved my condition substantially.

The long and short of it is I no longer have any symptoms of PD nor do I take any meds.I celebrate a full recovery from Parkinson’s disease. This was the result of about three years of research and slowly making changes in all aspects of my life. I do have a good understanding of why and how I recovered however articulated this might not be so easy, it was not simply changing modalities but the capacity to perceive life and my existence in a way that is contrary to all I have been taught and conditioned, changing my perspective was not an easy feat but when that occurred I realized that healing and restoration was possible.

Tai Ji Tears

Below I have posted a marvelous poem (Tai Ji Tears) written by Daniel Loney who is virtually symptom free from Parkinson’s today thanks to his practice and dedication to Tai Chi. You can hear my interview with Daniel Loney here:

Below is the poem from Daniel Loney.

Tai Ji Tears

Exhausted from the fight
And weary of the journey,
I find rest upon a city bench
Parked, like a statue in the square.
Ignored and invisible to passersby
Who scurry through their lives,
They move with quickness and with ease,
A pace I can no longer keep.

Yet, there is still a hidden place
Where I am king.
A world where every move
Becomes a gift of praise.
A place where tears flow freely
In thanks for heaven’s grace.

Stillness is my solace,
And slowness is my sanctuary
Where every muscle, joint, and sinew seeks its rightful place,
And every limb and organ finds harmony in the whole.
Where I am quiet as a mountain,
Yet, flowing like a river great.

With the grace of a white crane spreading wings,
I move,
And with the firmness of a golden pheasant on one leg,
I stand.
Using the guile of a snake creeping down,
I fight,
And with the stealth of a tiger seeking prey,
I conquer.
Like a horse jumping over a stream,
I soar in victory,
And with the surety of a sparrow returning to its nest,
In triumph I fly.

So, if in your daily journey
Rushing from place to place,
You happen upon a man
Dancing an ancient dance,
And diamond drops rest on his cheeks

Know that he is immersed in tai ji prayer,
Crying tai ji tears of faith,
Worshiping through movement in awe of his Creator.

Story of Recovery from Parkinson’s Disease by Detoxing Lead, Arsenic and Mercury

Joan has given me permission to post her most remarkable story of recovery from Parkinson’s disease by detoxing lead, arsenic and mercury.

Parkinsons Recovery was founded in 2004 to provide information, support and resources to persons diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease and their family interested in exploring natural therapies that offer symptom relief.

Hello Robert,

It has been a while since we communicated but with reasons. Shortly after you were here in Lexington, I went somewhere into a tremendous panic situation finally diagnosed as Panic Disorder. As usual, I wanted NO DRUGS and it took a bit to locate natural products to manage and stop this thing! It was not a kind place to be and it took a grave toll on me. So………I got SERIOUS! I wanted NO MORE OF THIS AND NO MORE PARKINSON’S DISEASE!

I searched for and found a Medical Doctor who practiced natural therapies……yes cures and recoveries! Thank God he is only a short 30-minute drive from me in a lovely small town called Midway, Kentucky. His clinic is Midway Center for Integrative Medicine, 129 Winter Street, www.themidwaycenter.com . He has helped me, Robert!

I went to him with HOPE and came away with real facts for recovery. He diagnosed me with LEAD, ARSENIC, AND MERCURY poisoning in my whole nervous system from simple blood tests and I am NOW ON MY WAY TO RECOVERY!! When I said to him,

You mean I do not have Parkinsons?

His reply was direct and loaded with impact! His reply,

Don’t put a label on it!

He placed me on a full detox program with nutritional supplements to increase my health that had been so damaged by doctors who only treated my SYMPTOMS and never the CAUSE!! I have seen seven neurologists in seven years of dealing with this horrid disease who all ended up with the same position. MRI, Cat Scan, and diagnosis of Parkinson’s Disease. When I finally asked the last one at the University of Kentucky Neurological Institute to do a toxicology test, she refused saying it would do no good because I have the disease. THIS IS SAD!! So many people……..such a dastardly disease……….and with doctors who won’t even TRY to step outside their boxes of comfort and paychecks!!

On March 23 I went to Dr. Roach the first time. He did blood work and diagnosed the CAUSE of my nervous system that was a mess from being attacked by poisons. He started me on certain few supplements ahead of getting the results back from the Lab and I began to FEEL BETTER inside a week! Just FEELING BETTER increased my HOPE and my TRUST in a Doctor was finally beginning to grow. See the comparisons listed here in less than two months recovery!!!

Joan’s Story of Recovery from Parkinson’s Disease – Comparison of Pre versus Post Symptoms

March 23 SYMPTOMS

  • Wheelchair bound and I was seriously considering a nursing home
  • Basic frozen body, total weakness, inability to move at all most times
  • Severe toes spasms and cramps
  • Tremors so massive my body, at times, would violently shake to almost injury
  • Slurred speech and drooling
  • Unable to stand or walk beyond 10 feet
  • Been to emergency room for panic attacks and inability to move while standing three times since September 2009
  • Disinterest, not able to even go to Christmas with my family
  • All the other stuff that goes along with this disease

APRIL 30 SYMPTOMS

  • No wheelchair since April 20! Though for very long days I take it in case of need
  • Freezing gone……….some minor feelings come and go throughout the day and getting better 
  • Toes improved 60%
  • Mild weakness
  • Tremors down to ZERO!
  • No slurred speech
  • No drooling

I walk everywhere……….even though it is often painful and at times I have to sit a bit longer than I want to give my body time of recovery from the minor freezes. On my first visit, Dr Roach told me (on my 3rd visit) that he thought my IQ was really low………but on this 3rd visit April 20, he said my  brain is just fine!

I told him about you, Robert. He would very much like to communicate with you! I hope you can as THIS IS THE KIND OF DOCTOR NEEDED IN THIS PROFESSION WHERE NO SCIENCE-BACKED M.D. HAS A DESIRE TO TREAT THE CAUSE AND NOT JUST SYMPTOMS OF ALL DISEASES!

Robert, he says 6 months to two years should see me recovered! I WILL TAKE THIS DIAGNOSIS ANY DAY!!

Joan

Many thanks to Joan for sharing her remarkable story of recovery.
