physical therapy
March 2, 2020

Physical therapy is a broad category that can niche down into subspecialties for specific patient care. Overall, therapy is an integral aspect of healthcare being responsible for evaluating patient function and movement following disease or injury. Through the careful development of a treatment plan with the incorporation of therapeutic exercises as part of the rehabilitation process, therapists can aid in pain management and restore function to the patient’s level of capability. A therapist has the option of specializing their skills to a set concentration if that is their choice or keeping their clinic all inclusive as with Liberty Physical Therapy. A concentration gives patients an option to seek care that is in alignment with their specific needs. For each subspecialty, there is a unique purpose and a diverse plan of care directed for that group.   Subspecialties That Exist For Physical Therapy In the field of physical therapy, the focus of care can narrow down into various subspecialties for which many therapists opt. The concentration gives the patient an opportunity to receive care that is specifically designated for their unique situation, whether it be age, disease, or another type of specification. Here are some various categories existing within concentrated care.   ·As baby boomers begin to age, there is a growing need for geriatrics for age-related ailments. Aged patients receive treatment for pain relief from arthritic conditions, general joint soreness/stiffness, and osteoporosis, intending to keep the patient as active and physically healthy as is possible. Some therapists may see progressive diseases, …

altzheimer's disease
February 9, 2020

by Bret Stetka © 2018 Infectious Theory Draws Fresh Interest Alzheimer's Disease - Dr Leslie Norins is willing to hand over $1 million of his own money to anyone who can clarify something: is Alzheimer's disease, the most common form of dementia worldwide, caused by a germ? By "germ" he means microbes like bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites. In other words, Norins, a physician turned publisher, wants to know if Alzheimer's is infectious. It's an idea that just a few years ago would've seemed to many an easy way to drain your research budget on bunk science. Money has poured into Alzheimer's research for years, but until very recently not much of it went toward investigating infection in causing dementia. But this "germ theory" of Alzheimer's, as Norins calls it, has been fermenting in the literature for decades. Even early 20th century Czech physician Oskar Fischer—who, along with his German contemporary Dr Alois Alzheimer, was integral in first describing the condition—noted a possible connection between the newly identified dementia and tuberculosis. If the germ theory gets traction, even in some Alzheimer's patients, it could trigger a seismic shift in how doctors understand and treat the disease. Norins received his medical degree from Duke in the early 1960s, and after a stint at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention he fell into a lucrative career in medical publishing. He eventually settled in an aged community in Naples, Florida, where he took an interest in dementia and began reading up on the condition. After scouring the medical literature he noticed a pattern. "It appeared that many of the reported characteristics …

dangers of vaping
February 8, 2020

What is Vaping? Vaping is the act of inhaling the aerosol (vapor) from an e-cigarette or similar device, often called a vape. To create this vapor, vape devices heat up liquid known as e-liquid or e-juice. Vaping differs from regular smoking in several ways: It does not usually include tobacco. Vape users inhale an aerosol, not smoke. E-liquid often comes in sweet, pleasant-smelling flavors. The vape industry has little regulation. The dangers of vaping are still being discovered. Introduced to the market in 2006, vaping products quickly became mainstream by the end of the decade, with about 7 million vapers worldwide, according to market research group Euromonitor International. Many people embraced these products as a safer, more socially acceptable alternative to traditional cigarettes. As a result, the number of vape users had soared to 35 million by 2016. By 2021, the number of adults who vape is expected to reach 55 million people — this is not including the millions of underage vapers. However, vaping has also faced more scrutiny because of its alleged child-targeting marketing tactics, the epidemic of underage vaping, rising reports of devastating lung injuries, and an increasing number of studies suggesting that vaping is not nearly as safe as once believed. Quick Facts About Vaping Deaths Nearly every state in the U.S. has reported at least one vaping-related death. As of January 2020, dozens of deaths have been attributed to vaping. Approximately one-fifth of the current vaping death cases involve minors. The Centers for Disease Control …

The Biological Effects of Weak Electromagnetic Fields Problems and solutions Andrew Goldsworthy March 2012 Foreword I am a retired lecturer from Imperial College London, which is among the top three UK universities after Oxford and Cambridge and is renowned for its expertise in electrical engineering and health matters. I spent many years studying calcium metabolism in living cells and also how cells, tissues and organisms are affected by electrical and electromagnetic fields. In this article entitled: The Biological Effects of Weak Electromagnetic Fields, Andrew Goldsworthy shares a lot of important information on electromagnetic fields and their effects on health. In this article, I will try to explain in lay-person’s language how weak electromagnetic fields from cell phones, cordless phones and WiFi can have serious effects on human and animal health. These include damage to glands resulting in obesity and related disorders, chronic fatigue, autism, increases in allergies and multiple chemical sensitivities, early dementia, DNA damage, loss of fertility and cancer. All this happens at levels of radiation that the cell phone companies tell us are safe because the radiation is too weak to cause significant heating. This is the only criterion that they use to assess safety. In fact, the direct electrical effect on our cells, organs and tissues do far more damage to us at energy levels that may be hundreds or thousands of times lower than those that cause significant heating. These are termed non-thermal effects. As yet our governments and health authorities are doing nothing to protect …

mitochondria and health
December 6, 2019

The Mitochondria: Key to Health and Longevity ARTICLE SUMMARY • Mitochondria generate 90 percent of the body’s energy, powering the cells to perform vital functions. • Mitochondria burn two main fuels: glucose and ketones. Because the standard American diet has given rise to a widespread sugar addiction, most people tend to burn glucose. • When the mitochondria are healthy, a person is generally healthy. • Mitochondrial deficiency can give rise to symptoms in virtually any organ or tissue. • Many factors—chemicals, foods, modern lifestyle habits and electromagnetic fields—have been implicated as causes of mitochondrial dysfunction. • In cancer, the mitochondria change first—before any gene coding changes—which undermines the “gene theory” premise of conventional cancer explanations. • Dysfunctional mitochondria can trigger a series of cellular processes that result in insulin resistance (diabetes). • Feeding and nourishing mitochondria with wholesome ketones—which do not require insulin—can help restore mitochondrial health and relieve brain starvation in individuals with cognitive impairment. • AMPK is an enzyme responsible for multiple metabolic functions. AMPK and mitochondrial imbalances can initiate a cascade of inflammatory changes related to disorders such as obesity and diabetes. • As key elements for cellular energy production, AMPK and mitochondria require nutrient and lifestyle changes when imbalanced. • Supporting mitochondrial health can help control the aging process as well improve overall health. For most of my professional life as an alternative family physician, I’ve understood that the frontier in medicine and health is a place where diseases without cures remain unsolved mysteries—awaiting the breakthroughs …

ORAL IMMUNOTHERAPY ORAL IMMUNOTHERAPY FOR THE TREATMENT OF CHRONIC DISEASES AND INFECTIONS Abstract Immunotherapy has recently emerged as a novel and appealing strategy for treating cancer and other acute and chronic diseases. During an infection, macrophage phagocytic cells proliferate in order to counteract the infection. For the last 20 years, the group-specific component (Gc) protein-derived Macrophage Activating Factor (GcMAF), has received a lot of attention. In 1999, the Japanese researcher Nobuto Yamamoto published his first report mentioning the use of Gc-MAF on Tumour Bearing Mice, along with another group the same year. It has received a great deal of attention in the past few years because of its proposed therapeutic use in the immunotherapy of cancer and other diseases ranging from autism and AIDS to multiple sclerosis and lupus. There is substantial scientific evidence in the last 20 years, demonstrating that GcMAF, extracted from human blood, inhibits cancer cell proliferation in vitro, angiogenesis and tumour growth in the experimental animal, and may have a role in the immunotherapy of a variety of conditions. [1-10]. Further research has shown that blood derived GcMAF may also play a significant role in reducing the damage inflicted by chemotherapy in neurons and glial cells in vitro [11, 12]. This finding will provide an excellent protective factor for those doing chemotherapy. There is an alternative way of producing GcMAF by taking oral colostrum macrophage-activating factor (MAF) produced from bovine colostrum. This has shown high macrophage phagocytic activity as well, is easy to dissolve and drink …
