Madonna on the Radio: 4BC with Alex Bernard

Sunday, February 28th, 2010

Today Alex and I discussed chronic pain with a few callers..  A few thoughts on pain:

1 in 5 Australians have chronic pain at some stage in their lives, so pain management is a huge challenge for many health professionals.  Pain can come from so many sources, and is often linked to emotional pain and traumas in our lives: deaths of a loved one, an operation, a nasty viral infection, financial difficulties.  Neck and shoulder pain, for example, is notoriously worse when someone is stressed.  Eventually this can lead to chronic pain for which medical science has no answers for other than stronger and stronger drug therapies.

Natural pain management works to reduce irritation to the nerves; regenerate the areas which are degenerating and re-mineralise the body.  This combination helps to reduce acidity, reduce pain and increase longevity.  Drug pain management suppresses the symptoms allowing nerve damage, acidity and degeneration to continue.

New Leaf Natural Therapies has many treatments for pain management:  naturopathic supplements; frequency specific microcurrent; remedial massage; infrared saunas; structural kinesiology and acupuncture.  It’s time to get to the cause of health problems, not just suppress them!

Pain Relief Without Drugs at New Leaf Natural Therapies

Monday, November 30th, 2009

You can have Pain Relief without drugs at New Leaf Natural Therapies. Our lovely clinic in Wynnum provides a range of services: if you live elsewhere here are some ideas for you to look for when finding a clinic to take care of your pain – you too, can have pain relief without drugs, pain relief without medication!

Find the reasons for your pain and FIX THEM!  What? There are reasons for my pain?  Find a clinic that can do some scientific testing/treatments in order to achieve the following outcomes…

  1. How acidic are you? Knowing this number (both saliva and urinary) and working towards the optimal ph (7.2-7.35) will halt the destruction of joints, bones and organs.  Acidity creates an environment where just about every health problem can be created.  Jacqueline Dekoke ND recently had a client with massive health issues and got his acidity from 5.5 to 7.4 within 4 weeks.  Then the healing can begin!
  2. How much excess fluid is your body holding?  Our VLA  or Bio-impedance analysis machine let’s us know EXACTLY how much fluid is inside the cells and how much fluid is on the outside.  This also let’s us know how much excess fluid your body is holding.  WHY?  Because the body is clever, and it’s trying to dilute toxins, acidity and inflammation.  We find that this process takes some time:  we have trillions of cells in our body and to detoxify each one, takes a lot of time!
  3. Massage therapies:  Find yourself a fabulous massage therapist, like Ms Katherine Lynn or Ms Cherice Day, someone who can put together a treatment plan for you.  If your massage therapist has a plan – then work with them and trust them.  If it doesn’t feel like they’re helping you with your pain relief, then find someone else.  For example, with Alison’s combination of reflexology, remedial massage, shiatsu, lymphatic drainage and acupuncture, she’s a perfect choice – find a passionate massage therapist who’ll get your pain issues under control.
  4. How inflamed are you?  We use several testing processes to find out how inflamed you are:  Live Blood Analysis (signs such as fibrin, rouleaux, blood stickiness, protoplasts, red crystals…); bio-impedance analysis (let’s us know how leaky and stressed your cells are).  Once you know how inflamed your body is you can use natural anti-inflammatories with NO SIDE EFFECTS such as kinex AI, kaprex and inflavonoid intensive care.  We also use Frequency Specific Microcurrent for reducing inflammation and regeneration of joints, ligaments and tendons.

It’s time to find your own natural therapies clinic that can do that for you!

Kinesiology – Learning Enhancement & Memory Improvement

Saturday, November 21st, 2009

We run a learning enhancement programme that works directly on the brain.  A combination of muscle testing, with acupressure/acupuncture points lets us know which areas of the brain are working, and which are not.  We re-connect areas of the brain which have been ’shut down’ due to traumas, toxins, stress, fight & flight and anything else that people encounter in life.  We then use our Frequency specific microcurrent for healing and detoxifying the brain.  We’ve been using this process for over 12 years so far (in 2009) and it works a treat!
