About Questions and Answers

Published by admin

Parkinsons Recovery is a clearinghouse of information about treatments and therapies for persons diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease. Ask us your questions. Visit the Parkinsons Recovery home page. Download Parkinsons Recovery radio programs or listen in live.

We will review your question, do the appropriate research, ask other professionals if needed, rely on our experiences in working with persons who have Parkinson’s and provide a written answer to your question which will be posted here for everyone to read. We will also send the answer to your e mail.

The good news is that this service is absolutely free. The bad news is that I am a slow thinker so you may have to give me a little time to figure out the answer to your questions.

    Hello, I am so happy to have received the link to this website..VERY INSPIRIATIONAL!!
    I am an Energy Practitioner and Motivational Coach. I am presently working with 2 clients who have been diagonsed with PD. My 1st client, after 3 years since diagnosed, he has been doing incredible work/ inner work on himself and is transforming and shifting to a higher level of consiousness, awarness and spirituality- which is bringing him much trust, faith and hope in his recovery. His attitude is very Positive and he is feeling GOOD more than not!!! NO DRUGS!!! HE IS RECOVERING!!
    on the other hand, my second client , also has been about 3 years since diagnosed.. still very depressed and closed to any new thing that I bring to him to help his attitude to guide him in the right direction of his recovery. I have directed him to this website, the blog etc.. He refuses.. but every week I continue to see him to do energy work, massage and coaching. There are times that he gets very inspired and makes a couple of steps forward, but the majority of the time, he goes backwards. He is not getting any support or encouragement from his family- and lives in a very stressful household. I am getting frustrated as a practitioner but know only too well that everyone chooses to either heal or not.. It is in their own time and I can not force anything.. Do I continue with my therapy?? I have been working with him now for about 1 1/2 years. He said that he was going to give himself til November 2008, with doing alternative work before he chooses medication. His family wants him to go on medication, he really does not want to go on medication but does not want to do the work that will get him on the path to recovery. It is a catch 22- He does not feel good, there fore he does not have the energy or motivation to do the work- but not understanding that if he does the work (yes- will be hard at first) but by continuing, he will feel better. He eats well and takes all of the suppliments that is suggested but not moving his body and has becove VERY STIFF AND SORE- CAN NOT MOVE. Can you offer to me any words of advise or encouragment or support for me. If the only thing that I can do at this time is just to be there for support for him, than that is what I will continue to do, but it is frustating watching this 36 year old man going down hill when he does not have to be. He wants to see PROOF.. Like I said, I have directed him to this website for proof… but he is not looking…thank you so much for your time in reading my blog…

    Robert Rodgers,Ph.D.
    I am learning more and more from your mail which I am receiving regularly. I am working as spiritual healor at Udaipur(India) specially for the patients suffering from parkinson and knee pain. I involve the patient in total spirituality for gaining confidence and faith and use medicated oils massage on the affected portion of body with my spiritual hands. I perform my treatment in three phase. In the first phase he/she must have faith in my healing,then can ask me to start treatment by sending me the concent and a photograph. I take about 15-20 days by preying and distant healing. when he/she feel little improvement I ask him/her to visit my place or call me there for second phase of healing which requires massage with medicated oils through my spiritual hands. and in last phase I ask the patients to perform some kind of exercise with the affected portion to gain confidence and starts working as normal person. There is no fixed charge for the treatment. Its all depends on the patients how he feels what he want to pay as per his/her wish. I am Hindu,brahmin,purevegetarian,pandit belonging to highly religious family with ayurvedic background.
    I shall be happy to work for the benefit of mankind in curing this disease with the blessings from God. So please ask any one suffering from such disease, if have faith can contact me through mail,phone or can write to me.
    God bless to all.
