On
the cases and referrals I see, my goal is to get the pet off as many medications as possible. I want to stop treating/suppressing the symptoms and driving the
disease deeper into the pet's body. I want to address the root causes of symptoms and
through the use of molecular minerals
and light therapy, help the pet's body heal
itself.
I believe many chronic
pain conditions can be helped greatly by supplementing with bio-available
molecular minerals.
In a painful
condition, the nerves are continuously stimulating muscle cells.Even if the cells had a good supply
of
minerals, they are going to soon be mineral depleted with the constant
stimulation.This will then greatly contribute
to
the patient’s pain.It is the same
concept as a football player cramping up after playing hard on a warm day.
Thus, if minerals are able to be delivered
intracellularly and thus draw water into the cell restoring
hydration and the
correct chemical andelectrical gradients, the pain will be diminished.
Red light therapy is acupuncture using 660 nm
light instead of needles. What this means today, is we are able to use
red
(660nm) light generated from LED’s to stimulate specific acupuncture points to
make the brain release chemicals to
cause healing of specific parts of the body.The light just needs to penetrate the skin
to the underlying collagen. (Most
acupuncture points are defined by a well of collagen surrounding the
ramification of a nerve in the skin.) Collagen is peizo and pyro-electric, which means the red light
acts as “pressure” which induces an electrical
charge that travels to a
specific part of the thalamus/hypothalamus.The brain cells release chemicals
that travel to specific parts of the
body, via the blood, to effect healing.
