Introduction To Health Care
In today's contemporary
society, more women than ever before not only want to
understand how their bodies function, but also want to
know how to alleviate the pain and suffering that, for
many, have plagued them for much of their lives.
Many patients come to our
practice with stories of different excuses given to them
about their problems including:
-
The
"psychosomatic" excuses:
"Your physical problems are not real"
or "It's all in your head"
-
The
"incurable" excuse: "No help is
available for your condition"
-
The "I don't know
how to deal with it" excuses: "You will
just have to live with it"
or "It's just part of getting
old"
A difficult, unsuspected or
unrecognized diagnosis, in the case of women's problems,
can result in years of unnecessary suffering and
frustration.
Our clinic has helped
thousands of women including mothers, grandmothers and
many diverse professional and business women including
nurses, teachers, flight attendants, banking and corporate
executives from virtually all walks of life who previously
faced similar frustrations.
Naturopathic medicine has
become increasingly important in the lifestyles of people
Who recognize the value of natural healing versus the
constant ingestion of synthetic (chemical) prescription
drugs many of which often cause more problems than they
solve.
This website may also be
used as an introductory teaching tool for all who want to
learn a more natural approach to healing. It represents a
brief overview of some of the most advanced medical and
naturopathic medical breakthroughs over the last decade.
As more physicians are
trained in diverse aspects of the healing arts, the author
feels they will be better equipped to serve their
patients. I have attempted to bring to the reader some of
the landmark discoveries and contributions made by some of
the most innovative physicians and scientists of the past
decade.
My deep appreciation goes
to: Abe Arkoff, Ph.D.; Broda Barnes, M.D. Ph.D.;
John Bastyr, N.D.; Abram Ber,
M.D.;
William Crook, M.D.; R.M.
Finley, N.D., D.C.; Robert Gardner, Ph.D.; Paul Kenyon,
N.D.; Howard F. Loomis Jr.,D.C.; Laurie Marzell, N.D.; Robert S. Mendelsohn,
M.D.; Robert T. Oshiro, N.D.; Ray Peat, Ph.D.; Ronald Pion,
M.D.; Doris Rapp, M.D.; Ian Reid, Ph.D.; Richard Renn, D.O.; Gary Ryder,
M.D.; Alan P. Simpkins, Ph.D.;
W.J. Sittner, M.D.; William Turska, N.D.;
Alvin O. Uhle, M.D.; Don
C. Walker, N.D., D.C.: and Ralph R. Weiss, N.D., D.C.. It
has been a great honor to have received personal
instruction and guidance from them.
Special recognition and
thanks should also be given to Katharina Dalton, M.D. for
her pioneering research on Natural Progesterone therapy.
In addition, this website is a tribute to my many women
patients who, through generous and open sharing of their
knowledge, experience, suffering, and joy, have helped me
develop a better understanding of their feelings and
concerns.
Together, we
have learned how to deal with and help many difficult cases
and have discovered new methods and therapies for the
treatment of female problems both minor and advanced. It is
very gratifying to integrate our experience and discoveries
with those of my patients and colleagues to offer you the
knowledge that, indeed:
"Next
month can be better!"
I extend special thanks to
Kenneth A. Manske and Lee R. Dreyer for help in compiling
and editing the information used in this website.
