Epilepsy disappears with Chiropractic
Epilepsy goes away with Chiropractic. The journal “Annals of vertebral subluxation Research” on August 1, 2016 published an article on the investigation of a documented case of a patient being helped with epileptic seizures by a Mataro chiropractor.
The study defines epilepsy by stating, «Epilepsy is a chronic neurological disease characterized by recurrent unprovoked epileptic seizures.» In describing the mechanism of seizures, the study authors noted that seizures are an abnormal electrical discharge and unregulated that is produced within the gray matter of the brain and disrupts normal brain function.
The researchers reported that between 8 and 10% of the population will experience a single seizure at some point in their lives and 3 % may develop epilepsy.
In conventional medicine, seizures are generally treated with a variety of drugs. However, approximately 30% of patients treated, their disorder is not being adequately managed by medications.
Those who can gain some control with their medication are relegated to acceptance of any side effects of the drug and must take medication for the rest of their lives.
For this reason, many patients have sought alternative forms of medical care, such as chiropractic. The case study published in the aforementioned journal is that of a 23-year-old woman suffering from epileptic seizures who sought the alternative of chiropractic.
She had been suffering from seizures since the age of 21. Since the onset of the seizures, the frequency of seizures increased from twice a month to twice a week. Her history noted that during the first year of her epilepsy diagnosis, she had lost 25 kg of weight and developed depression, anxiety, migraines, allergies, severe fatigue and memory loss..
She was then also given medication for these illnesses. Even after being prescribed a high dose of epilepsy medication, she was still having 2 seizures per week. She was given a chiropractic examination including a physical examination, postural analysis, palpation and radiographs of the first cervicals. The diagnosis reached from his examination was that the epilepsy was localized in the temporal lobe, he had an abnormal posture, and chronic subluxations in the cervical, thoracic and pelvic regions.
The subject patient began her Mataro chiropractic care with three visits per week, including specific adjustments to the detected subluxations. Two months after chiropractic care, the patient reported that she had complete relief of her anxiety and depression. She also reported that she felt a general improvement and began to eliminate medications.
His improvement continued over the next few months. He was re-evaluated at six months, the woman stopped suffering from epileptic seizures and also stopped taking the medication. Source:www.nowyouknow.net
