It is Possible to Recover from Parkinson's Disease

What happens when you are diagnosed with Parkinson's disease? You are told there is good news and bad news.
The good news is that you will not die from Parkinson's anytime soon. The bad news is that you will get progressively worse each year.

John Coleman, a naturopath doctor from Australia, says the belief that anyone who has been diagnosed with Parkinson's will inevitably get worse is dead wrong. Why does he challenge this conventional "wisdom"?

John Coleman was diagnosed with Stage IV Parkinson's Disease in 1995. He had all the major symptoms of Parkinson's -
muscular rigidity
tremors
difficulty walking
frozen face
muscle weakness
insomnia
cognitive impairment
fatigue
illegible handwriting
poor coordination
freezing
spasms
gastric reflux
loss of libido

You name it. He had it. Three and a half years later John Coleman was symptom free.

John Coleman, ND, says if he can recover, anyone can recover. Over the past decade he has helped countless individuals in Australia find relief from the symptoms of Parkinson's disease. Some of his clients have now also fully recovered.

Is it easy to recover from Parkinson's? Certainly not.

John Coleman ND is the first to say there is no cure for Parkinson's. No magic "pill" exists that permanently relieves the symptoms of Parkinson's and ultimately "cures" the disease. If you are hoping for a magic bullet you might as well give up looking.

The good news is that recovery is possible. The body knows how to heal itself. It just needs a little help remembering how. Recovery evolves over time ever so gently as your body returns to hormonal balance and harmony.

John Coleman initially experimented with a variety of modalities to heal his own Parkinson's. He was so sick he was willing to try anything. Some of the therapies he pursued were not effective. Others did succeed in helping him get better.

What helped to relieve his symptoms? A variety of factors helped him recover. Their combined effect turned out to be powerful.

Exercise. The human body was built to be physically active. Use it or lose it.

Eat well to get well. Neurons need good nourishment to heal.

Hydrate cells. People with Parkinson's are chronically dehydrated. Dehydration contributes to constiptation.

Release trauma. John Coleman found that persons with Parkinson's have experienced high stress or trauma at some time during the first fifteen years of their life. The trauma and stress that is physically trapped in the cells and tissues needs to be released through energy healing, Bowen therapy or cranio sacral therapy or other bodywork modalities.

Laugh. Laughter manufactures the hormones the body desperately needs to maintain hormonal balance. Laughter does not cost anything. It is also fun.

Reduce exposure to toxins. Many people are not aware that many common household detergents and cleaning agents create neurological damage.

Meditate. Meditation lowers the level of hormones such as adrenaline. Hormones like adrenaline are a key hormone implicated in the onset of Parkinson's.

John Coleman has shown by his own example that relief from the symptoms of Parkinson's is possible. The miracle of full recovery is even possible.

The road to recovery is not quick or simple. There is no magic cure. Recovery requires understanding, time, and the will to get well.

Keep the faith. Begin taking care of your body. Give your body time to heal. Miracles do happen.
