allergies
If you live anywhere near Hope Clinic, you're aware it's been the coldest April in years. With lots of clouds and wind. Sitting down with Dr. Brad, we sought out his thoughts (and sympathy) regarding this chilly spring and how that impacts how we're feeling. Both mentally and physically.
Hear a mother share about her 2-year old who was diagnosed with 46 different food allergies and the journey to find help. And hope!
"Dr. Brad has helped me in so many ways over the past several years. When I first began treatment with Dr. Brad, I had allergies, chronic sinus infections, and always felt exhausted.
I have not had a sinus infection since treatment began nor do I take allergy medicine anymore. The exhaustion is gone and I am so active now that Dr. Brad continues to treat my interesting injuries that occur from all the new activities I am enjoying..."
Ever wondered why allergies can vary so much from person to person?
Think of it like this: each of our bodies have our own bucket-sized ability for how many hormones, toxins, chemicals, or allergens we can handle. Everyone has a little different capacity...
A middle-aged man came into the clinic complaining of shoulder pain, overwhelming stress, allergies, sinus drainage, snoring, waking up numerous times through the night, and constant fatigue.
On his first visit, Dr. Brad found that he had a restricted airway most likely causing sleep apnea and decreased melatonin production. The patient also had slight hypothyroidism, an enlarged prostate, and spinal misalignments contributing to his shoulder pain.
“The results of the treatment have been positive. It worked.”
The solution was chiropractic adjustments for his lower neck and mid-back in order to increase nerve flow to his throat, thyroid, and shoulder. Specific nutritional supplementation was used to increase prostate, thyroid, and pineal gland production. Specific nutritional supplementation was also used to balance his brain chemistry and help him deal with stress. Specific acupuncture and Chinese herbs were used to decrease inflammation in his throat and open up his sinuses.
After two months of care, this patient has “no bothersome allergic reactions” and is now able to sleep through the night without a CPAP machine. He now has energy to exercise and feels that he can deal with the stressors in his life.
After having two kids, Mindi's seemingly random health issues only seemed to get worse. She wasn't satisfied with the answers she was getting from traditional medicine.
