Clearing Carcinosin (Update)

It’s been awhile since I’ve given you an update on Moses’ Heilkunst homeopathic healing journey.

Moses had a very difficult time clearing Carcinosin (Cancer chronic miasm). Emotionally. Behaviourally. And physically.

Typically, it takes 6 weeks for one to clear one of the chronic miasms to 10 M, and it took Moses 6 months to clear Carcinosin to 1 M because I spaced out the powders since his reactions were so big. (We didn’t even get to clearing 10M).

DH has dubbed this summer “the summer of abscesses”, and that it was. Moses had yet another abscess drained in the hospital on Thursday (it was his left armpit this time). Thankfully, they drained it under local anesthetic, which although was traumatizing for him in the short-term, meant that we didn’t need to stay in the hospital. Yay, yay, yay, yay, yay!

My Heilkunstler always reminds me that abscesses mean that things are coming to the surface to be resolved (which is a good thing), but it’s still not fun for Moses or the family.

We recently started clearing Syphilinum (Syphilis), but given Moses’ huge reactions, his Heilkunstler chose to dose Syphilinum using the Fibonacci method of dosing, which is supposed to result in more gentler healing reactions. I hope that she’s right…

[According to Arcanum Wholistic Clinic, the Fibonacci series is "...based on a mathematical sequence which defines a perfect spiral motion, as is found through many processes in nature. A spiral is formed from a kind of dance between a radial and spherical force which creates a continuous expansive motion"; therefore, it sounds like a combination of the traditional radial centisimal (C) scale and the spherical LM scale that is typically used.  The Fibonacci series are particularly useful for deep and old diseases].  Check out this visual representation of the  Fibonacci sequence here.

Fibonacci sequence in nature…

Earlier this week, I was starting to feel down about Moses’ state of health because his symptoms were up (i.e., increase of rashes; increase of wheeziness — he’s been needing his Ventolin puffer several times a day at school and at home;  the corners of his lips are cracked — they look so sore; he’s been complaining of intense abdominal pains; he’s continuing to have nightmares every night; and, of course, the abscess). I’m so tired of healing reactions, ER visits and doctor’s appointments. It’s hard to stay optimistic and centred of the time, especially when DH and his doctors just see the increase in symptoms as an increase in illness and disease. As a result of all of the abscesses, he has an appointment to see yet another doctor — an infectious diseases specialist. I’m also concerned that they will likely increase his preventative puffer medication due to his increase in wheeziness. Ack. More medication means more stuff that Moses’ body needs to detox (which then causes a healing reaction). Such a vicious cycle.

But then yesterday, Moses and I had an appointment with our chiropractor, who also does cranialsacral therapy and total body modification. We have faithfully been seeing our chiropractor every 4-6 weeks. I *love* our chiropractor because he understands homeopathy and energy healing, and is very intuitive. I always find visits to our chiropractor so confirming because he can read the body so well, and he can often pick up on the effects of the homeopathy and the energy work that we’ve been doing. (I’ve been keeping a record of all of our chiropractic visits here, so that I can keep track of how we’ve been progressing over time).

I told his chiropractor about current Moses’ symptoms and recent abscess drainage. In particular, I was concerned about the intense abdominal pains that he’s been having (which are not typical for him), and had been going on for a week. He missed two days of school as a result of these pains. His chiropractor released his neck and the base of his skull, which can be related to stomach upsets. According to his chiropractor, Moses’ body is doing well. Moses only needed some minor body point corrections, and not major work on any of his organs (this is great news). His chiropractor felt that his body was detoxing energetically, which is likely related to the fact that he recently started detoxing Syphilinum. His spine is good and his body is generally clear. He reminded me how far Moses’ body has come from when he first started treating him last year. In the beginning, he needed to do a lot of work on clearing his organs, and currently, his organs are actually doing really well. To me, this is a sign that even though all of the outer symptoms have (temporarily) increased, his internal system is actually doing well (i.e., it confirms what his Heilkunstler has been saying all along — abscesses are a sign of healing as it means that toxins and disease are on their way out and away from the organs). His chiropractor assessed that on a scale from illness to healthy, Moses is actually on the side of health. He is healthy (despite the outer symptoms). It made me feel that we are definitely on the right track, and I just need to have trust and be patient with the process. Yay, yay, yay, yay, and yay!

So, in any case, we will continue on this course of healing, and I will (try to) be patient with the process.

Hanging out on Torbay Point

As for me, it shouldn’t surprise me that Carcinosin was such a major chronic miasm for Moses to clear because it’s been a major one for me. I had to clear it for a second time to 50M a few weeks ago. I had flu-like symptoms that were quite intense during the first day of my trip to Phoenix, but thankfully my nose stopped running on the day that I gave a presentation at a conference. My Heilkunstler also gave me a dropper to help with my nerves related to the presentation, and my presentation was a big success! And, of course, DH and I had a great vacation in Phoenix and Sedona!

On the positive side of the things, Moses did really, really, really, really well when we were away for a week. His Grammie remarked several times how well Moses did, how much fun they had together and how different Moses is now compared to when he was three and a half. Three years ago was shortly after his MMR vaccination and we were wondering at the time whether he might be on the autistic spectrum. The fact that Moses did so well when we were gone is another sign of how far Moses has come emotionally.

Update:

October 14, 2012 – Moses hasn’t complained of stomach pains since Thursday. Seems like something has helped (maybe the chiropractic treatment, maybe the homeopathic remedy that his Heilkunstler prepared for his stomach pains). In any case, I’m glad that his tummy is feeling better.

We started using a Nyaderm (an antifungal cream) on the corners of his lips, and I’m hoping that will help bring relief to his lips soon.

MRSA came to visit our home

Update (January 19, 2013): We are now using doTERRA essential oils (OnGuard, Oregano, Melaleuca, Frankincense) to deal with MRSA infections. See this and this  for ideas on protocols. Read more about how we are using doTERRA essential oils in our house here. You can order these oils here.

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) came to visit our home two weeks ago. MRSA is a bacteria that is resistant to many antibiotics (which actually developed as a result of the over-use of antibiotics), and as a result, is difficult to treat. It can result in painful skin infections (as well as other infections). It is common in hospitals and we can only surmise that we picked it up from one of our many trips to the hospital.

DH developed an MRSA infection on his lowerback and it was so painful, it radiated pain down to his leg and up his spine. He couldn’t lie on his back, or even sit in a car without being in agony. We didn’t realize at the time that it was MRSA because it took a week for it to be cultured. The day that the test results came in, DH’s physician recommended that DH live somewhere else for a week, for fear we would pass it to Moses. The first thing I did was google MRSA and Job’s infections and I found tons of cases of Job’s syndrome patients with multiple MRSA infections given that  individuals with Job’s syndrome are susceptible to staph infections. It painted a terrible and horrifying picture in our minds.

It wasn’t the best timing because we were expecting out-of-town guests. I didn’t want DH to live somewhere else for a week, so we sought second opinions from Moses’ pediatrician, my mother (a nurse), my Heilkunstler and also my intuition. DH decided to stay at home, but we took a lot of precautions, such as Moses not being allowed in our room, DH using a designated bathroom that Moses couldn’t use, lots of handwashing, switching to an antibacterial soap (something that we hate to do under normal circumstances, but given the situation, we needed to take all precautions), sanitizing the bathroom with bleach, spraying our beds and couches with antiseptic spray, wiping everything down with antibacterial wipes.

Then two days later, I developed a MRSA infection on one of my persistent rashes (I think it’s psoriasis) on my left knee. (Likely because  I was helping to change DH’s dressings and my rashes had been terribly itchy that I couldn’t help but scratch them). Within a couple of days, the infection was so painful, I couldn’t bend me knee and it hurt and throbbed with pain constantly. It felt as though I had cut open my knee and that someone was poking it with a stick. ALL DAY LONG and all night long. Ridiculously painful. It shocked me how painful it was and I prayed that Moses would not get it. Moses rashes were up and were all open and/or scabbed over on his back from scratching, making the likelihood that he would get it high.

My Heilkunstler prepared two homeopathic droppers, one to help me deal with the infection, and another Syphilis dropper (given that staph infections are related to the Syphilis miasm). I also started a 10-day dose of trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole, an antibiotic that MRSA is not resistant to. This was my first dose of pharmaceutical antibiotic in over 15 years. I also researched alternative treatments for MRSA and I learned that turmeric is helpful. I took a  teaspoon of turmeric in a glass of water a couple of mornings (yuck!). I started upping my dosage of MMS. I took oil of oregano. I took Cold Effects (North American ginseng) to boost my immune system. I prayed. I researched all that I could on MRSA. It was depressing reading because most of the websites said that once you had MRSA, you would be a carrier for life, susceptible to future infections, and it is often passed  back and forth amongst family members. Ack!

Why did MRSA visit our home?

I wondered why MRSA visited our home. Why now? We’ve been so optimistic. Moses has been doing so well. This happened right before DH’s 10 mile race (and it now looked like he wouldn’t be able to run it). This happened a day after I had an expansive evening sharing Munay Ki rites with a fellow healer, following weeks of self-care (weekly body work sessions, etc.). It wasn’t related to a healing reaction on my part (or so I thought) since I was waiting until we were back from our vacation to start the next round of Heilkunst healing.

It seemed to ironic that it was MRSA, a particular infection that Moses was susceptible to, yet DH and I were the ones who had it. And not Moses.

I talked to my Heilkunstler and she said that even though Moses is the one with the diagnosis, really, the diagnosis is related to the deeper miasms that both DH and I carry. I had heard many times before from various sources that Moses is a powerful healer, and through his little body,  he has been processing a lot of karma related to the family line, helping the whole family’s healing. It almost felt as though by DH and I having MRSA, we were helping Moses to process some of the karma ourselves (not that we aren’t anyway, but we were now doing it in a more demonstrative way). Not sure if that makes sense to you, but it kind of made sense to me. In any case, I’d much rather it be my husband and me to have infections than my boy.

My Heilkunstler shared with me that staph infections are indicative of parental betrayal and being violated by family. Self-sabotage. Harsh words, but the words resonated for me as when I was a child, I experienced violations and betrayal. My Heilkunstler also reminded me that one of my daily droppers was a mixture of Lachiasis (guilt and shame) / Nat-Mur (old grief), and that these together worked synergistically to bring healing of old guilt, shame and grief in my body. And, which could very well manifest as an MRSA infection.

The MRSA infection helped to really bring out my feelings of “being a leper” (the homeopathic remedy, Hura, which is an ideogenic disease). DH and I didn’t touch for most of the week. Our out-of-town guests decided not to stay with us (for good reason). We couldn’t bring Moses to a swimming birthday party. Both DH and I felt infected and diseased.

Cranialsacral Therapy / Total Body Modification

Moses and I had a follow up session with our chiropractor. He could tell that my body was fighting an infection and was able to desensitize my body to staph (using energetic vials of staph), as well as boost my immune system with other vials energized to represent parts of the immune system. This was part of the total body modification work. Then, he did some cranialsacral work with me. He shared that my solar plexus, which had been highly reactive during previous sessions had softened and that some of the energy had moved up to my neck (hence, the new pain in my neck — another story altogether), but this was actually a good sign. It had occurred to me that all of the body work that I had been receiving (cranialsacral therapy, TBM, Munay Ki rites, massage, acupuncture, yoga, meditation and breathe work every few days during the last month) could have also led to the development of MRSA.

During my first session with my chiropractor, I felt old wounds from my traumatic childhood release. During the second session, I felt that I was being re-birthed into his hands. During the third session (yesterday), my body felt at ease. Like everything made sense, everything was falling into place, and everything was going to be alright. This infection is yet another dramatic healing reaction, after which, our whole family will be more healed, more at ease.

Moses is MRSA-free

MRSA has been in our home for two weeks now, and Moses is still MRSA infection-free.  It’s amazing and a miracle. And we are so thankful. I’m now thinking that the infection may just leave our home, without affecting Moses. (But if by chance, God forbid, he does get it, we also have the tools to help him through it).

His chiropractor desensitized Moses to staph using TBM. And our Heilkunstler started him back on a daily Syphilis dropper (again, given that staph is related to this chronic miasm). We talked to Moses’ pediatrician and she didn’t think it was necessary for any of us to leave the home (we couldn’t since both DH and I had it anyway). She didn’t even think it was necessary to swab him for MRSA. In fact, she was convinced that Moses was actually already colonized by MRSA given all of his time spent at hospitals, but was asymptomatic. Somehow that idea brought me relief because I had been so scared of Moses getting the infection from us. If he was actually carrying it already and is asymptomatic  – wow — that’s really amazing. Another huge sign of how strong Moses body had become at fighting off infection.

His chiropractor also shared that Moses lungs were softer and “freer” than they had been a couple of weeks ago. Another great sign.

Decolonizing from MRSA

I found information on Wikipedia (and other sites) on how to decolonize from MRSA.

After the drainage of boils or other treatment for MRSA, patients can shower at home using chlorhexidine (Hibiclens) or hexachlorophene (Phisohex) antiseptic soap from head to toe, and apply mupirocin (Bactroban) 2% ointment inside each nostril twice daily for 7 days, using a cotton-tipped swab. Household members are recommended to follow the same decolonization protocol.*

DH mentioned this decolonization technique to our family doctor and the  doctor thought that it was a brilliant way to decolonize from MRSA (he didn’t even realize that it was possible prior to this). He agreed that it would work and even wrote down the instructions for future reference. We are going to do this, but we need a prescription for the antiseptic soap, so it will have to wait until we get back from our vacation from Gros Morne next week before we get the prescription (the doctor had thought that you could get the antiseptic soap over the counter, but you actually need a prescription). In the meantime, we will use the Bactroban ointment on our nostrils (all three of us), and DH and I are showering with an antibacterial hand soap (again, I hate doing this, but under the circumstances…). Moses is still bathing in tea tree oil, which has antibacterial properties. We will continue to take all other precautions as well (hand washing, frequent washing of clothes, bedsheets, etc.).

Good News

• Moses is healthy.
• DH’s infection has healed and he will be able to run the Tely 10 tomorrow!
• My infection is clearing up and no longer hurts.
• We are going on a much-needed vacation to Gros Morne with dear family and friends on Monday.
• I’m back to feeling hopeful and optimistic and feel that this MRSA infection was just another step in our family’s healing, and that when we return from vacation, we will return refreshed, healthy and well in body, mind and Spirit.

Related to the last point, I chose 3 tarot cards this morning that let me know that we were on the right track. The three cards:

• The Tower – a picture of a tower being struck by lightning and people falling out of the tower.
  • Meaning: A time of great change, either outward or inward.
  • Old structures and beliefs are swept away to make way for creativity and inspiration, and the next step on your path.
• Princes of Wands – a pictures of a young boy warrior riding a horse.
  • Meaning: Enjoying travel and adventure (our Gros Morne vacation).
• Ten of Cups – picture of a content and happy family with their 10 cups full to the brim.
  • Meaning: A promise fulfilled. Dreams really can come true; you can be blessed with good fortune, success, and a warm and loving family. Rainbows appear after it has rained. The storm is over and the indications are that the positive situation will endure. Loving and permanent relationships. Happiness. Spiritual and emotional blessings.

So be it!

Updates:

July 28, 2011 – I had an appointment with my doctor and my rash is still oozing, so I’ve started my second dose of antibiotics (a 14-day course). I was advised not to use band aids, which help to breed bacteria, and instead, use dry dressings with tape. Within a couple of days of the dry dressing, my rash closed up. Thankfully.

August 3, 2011 – We have been showering daily with Phisohex (a prescription antibiotic cleanser) and putting Bactroban in our nostrils for the last week. Great news – Moses is still MRSA-free!!

August 16, 2011 – I’m done my 14 day course of antibiotics and had a follow up with my doctor. The infection has cleared up. He didn’t bother to do another swab to make sure that we’re MRSA clear. He just said, “We’ll wait and see what happens…”. Great news — Moses remained MRSA-free during this entire time and we’re allowing him back into our room now for morning snuggles… 

August 17, 2011 – My Heilkunstler suggested that I start a paper remedy for the antiobiotic that I was on (write the name of the antibiotic on a piece of paper, along with a 30C for the potency for a couple of days) and place it under my pillow.

October 24, 2012 – Due to Moses’ recurrent abscesses, his infectious disease specialist suggested that we try this decolonization technique:

- All members of the household do the following daily for five days:

• Bathe in a bleach bath (1/4 cup of bleach with a full bath); and
• Bactroban 2% or Mupirocin 2% in both nostrils 2x per day, using a cotton swab.

She said that decolonization may or may not work in the long run, but it’s worth a shot in our case.

January 19, 2013 – We are now using doTERRA essential oils (OnGuard, Oregano, Melaleuca, Frankincense) to deal with MRSA infections. See this and this  for ideas on protocols and order here. Read more about how we are using doTERRA essential oils in our house here.

Total Body Modification and Cranialsacral Therapy

Moses had his first appointment with our amazing new chiropractor. His chiropractor is going to use a combination of cranialsacral therapy and total body modification to support Moses’ healing.

I’m really excited because I really feel that our new chiropractor is an amazing hands-on healer. I had my second appointment with him on Friday and as he held my head, I literally felt as though I was being held in the hands of God. Beautiful. Supported. Lots of divine love. The inner child in me feels very safe in his presence. As I mentioned earlier, cranialsacral therapy helps the body to release held tension from old trauma in the body. I certainly felt that during my first session. During my second session, I felt as though I was being rebirthed into his hands. Three days later, I’m feeling as though my chronic neck and shoulder tension is being released and my whole body posture is starting to change. (My general body posture is one in which my shoulders round forward to protect my heart centre — some of this tension is started to be released. My body’s story is starting to change).

Moses felt very comfortable with our new chiropractor and happily played with toys during my session. When it was his turn, Moses was comfortable and relaxed enough to lie on the treatment table and receive a cranialsacral assessment/session for 20 minutes or so. I’m interested to find out the results of the assessment next week, but in the meantime, I’m very excited and optimistic about finding this new competent healer who can support the Heilkunst healing. I also like that our chiropractor recognizes Moses’ innate wisdom and treated him with great respect.

Total Body Modification

I’m very excited to learn about total body modification, which is one of the techniques that his chiropractor plans to use with Moses. I hadn’t heard about this technique, but when I researched it, it felt that it is exactly what Moses’ body needs.

I love it because it uses muscle testing (which I really trust as I use it myself) and it will allow the chiropractor to talk directly to Moses’ organs to find out exactly what his body needs. From my reading, I also found out that total body modification can help eliminate allergies (which is exactly what Moses’ body needs), as well as strengthen the body’s immune system. I also read that it can help improve the body’s response to homeopathic treatment. I feel strongly that this technique will help Moses and I’m amazed at how the universe brought this into our lives.

Some of the benefits to total body modification (TBM):

• TBM treats and improves virtually every organ and system in the body.
• TBM balances blood pressure.
• TBM eliminates cold and flu symptoms by balancing the body.
• TBM balances the metabolisms of the body, including sugar metabolism.
• TBM addresses dehydration and other problems due to improper fluid handling.
• TBM keeps emotional problems from affecting the physical body.
• TBM helps manage and/or eliminate major neurological and systemic problems.
• TBM allows the body to detoxify without supplements.
• TBM is especially valuable in eliminating heavy metals.
• TBM balances the reaction to allergens, allowing symptoms to disappear.

This technique can be used to de-sensitize allergies and can give a 95% improvement in symptoms. According to Dr Frank, allergic reactions are the result of unresolved flight or fight responses when we inhale or eat disharmonious allergens (ones that clash with our own electromagnetic field). He recognizes five basic causes of allergies in 80% of patients, including dehydration, sugar metabolism problems, mercury fillings and reactions to bees. If these are corrected, allergic reactions are eliminated in 80% of people.

I also love some of the TBM mottos:

• “The power that made the body is the power that can heal the body.”
• “When the right thing is done to the body at the right time, miracles can happen”.

As you know, I strongly believe in miracles and I also strongly believe in the healing power of the universe / God.

I can’t wait to let you know how this continues to unfold for us.

Updates:

July 8, 2011: Moses received a cranialsacral therapy session, with a focus on his lungs and liver.

July 22, 2011: Read about our TBM and cranialsacral therapy session here.

July 29, 2011:  Chiropractor thought that he looked lighter today and was more outgoing. His skin is clearing. The chiropractor mentioned that most people are reactive to bee pollen, bees and mercury and clearing those sensitivities often result in greater wellness. Moses was cleared of a sensitivity to bee pollen and fog pollutants today. He didn’t have a sensitivity to bees or mercury. He worked with his lungs (which is continuing to “feel” better in the chiropractor’s opinion), head and pancreas.

I had some TBM and cranialsacral work around my head, releasing tension and work on my TMJ. Released some stress and tension in my body after the long drive to Gros Morne. I always feel much better and more at peace after a session.

August 5, 2011: Moses was cleared of “food” and “food toxin” sensitivities (let’s hope that this works!), in addition to strengthening a neurotransmitter. His chiropractor worked on his pancreas (just needed a bit of tweaking) and his small intestines. Moses often has a bowel movement in the middle of his cranialsacral therapy session (just like he did when he was 2 years old and receiving cranialsacral therapy). Moses is continuing to do well.

August 12, 2011:  Moses was in the hospital for 3.5 days with pneumonia and was discharged today. We were able to get in for an appt.  His chiropractor worked on balancing his body and commented that his lungs didn’t change energetically from last week (i.e., the infection came and went and his lungs were not “damaged” in any way). His liver is a bit “murky” right now.  A positive change is that Moses only needed a 15 min appt (as opposed to 30 min) — a good sign. My system was depleted before the session and I felt better after the session. Was glad to get a tune up so soon after our hospital stay.

August 19, 2011: According to his chiropractor, Moses’ lungs and pancreas are energetically better. He spent most of the session working on his liver and general balancing of his system. Again, he only needed a 15 min session — I think this will be the new norm (and will also be more cost effective, so yay!). Moses just started a new round of Heilkunst healing (ringworm), so his lungs have been a bit more congested to me, but as I mentioned, his chiropractor says that they are energetically clearer.  Good news to me!

August 26, 2011: His chiropractor worked on Moses’ right lower lobe of his lungs, his pancreas, liver (which was feeling better than it has been in the past) and his pericardium (heart), as well as desensitized him to bacteria, fungi, toxins, dust and proteins. We’re going to start seeing his chiropractor less frequently now (every 2 weeks rather than every week).

September 7, 2011: His chiropractor reported that Moses’ system is the best that it’s been. His lungs, pancreas and liver are all clearer. He adjusted his spine and did some overall balancing work. For me, he worked on my pelvis, spine, heart, released some old fear in my kidneys, and also released some corresponding postural muscles in my neck and shoulders related to the old fear in my body and how to present myself in the world. He thinks that overall, we’re both doing well.

September 19, 2011: Moses’ system is getting better and better. His chiropractor said that Moses’ system is getting more robust and stronger. He worked on him for 30 min today: on his intestines, his brain stem, his right lung (but in a different way then in the past and overall balancing. Interestingly, he couldn’t work on my body because I recently attended a workshop lead by three Peruvian shamans and my body was still processing the deep healing that had occurred (my body was in a high thymus state, which means that it was already at its limit for energy work).

Oct 5, 2011: After his recent reaction to eggs, his chiropractor desensitized him to egg yolk, egg whites and mercury. He tested his sensitivity to tree nuts, and his body didn’t react to them! That is in line with the results from his recent medical prick tests. He has an oral challenge of almonds scheduled for the end of the month! He also worked on helping his left eye, the one that is still recovering from an eye shield ulcer from January. His vision still hasn’t recovered since that injury. Let’s hope that the TBM process helps him!

I’ve been fighting a bacterial infection and he did a lot of work on me, including energy healing, TBM and cranialsacral therapy to help bring me back into balance.

October 26, 2011:  The chiropractor tested Moses’ sensitivity to tree nuts, eggs and milk and Moses’ body didn’t react to them (Moses is having an oral challenge of almonds tomorrow in the hospital, so we’ll get to see how he does tomorrow). His body reacted to fish and wheat, and his chiropractor desensitized him to those foods, as well as to IgE (which will hopefully bring his IgE levels down even more). His IgE levels were measured last week, but we’re waiting to hear the results. He worked on clearing his liver, did a neck adjustment and some overall balancing.

Overall, his chiropractor assessed that Moses has shown a 50% improvement since we started treatment 3.5 months ago, and his lungs and liver have shown improvement.

For me, he worked on my heart chakra, overall balancing and a neck adjustment. A lot of things are going on for me since I’m in the middle of clearing my birth using Heilkunst homeopathy. Overall, the chiropractor assesses that I’ve shown a 30% improvement since starting treatment (in terms of neck pain and overall health).

We both had a 15 minute appointment today, but lots happened in that time. Both Moses and I are going to start being seen every month rather than every 2 weeks, so that I can make the best use of the chiropractic health insurance benefits that we have left.

November 25, 2011 – Moses just got out of the hospital with pneumonia. His chiropractor adjusted his spine, and desensitized him with the following vials: 1) a vial that desensitizes him to hospital infections; 2)  a vial related to injected toxins (Moses received a lot of IV antibiotics), and 3) a vial related to blood components since Moses received a blood transfusion during his stay at the hospital). He worked on some points related to his lungs and his liver. He said his liver was “less mucky” than it normally is.

His chiropractor also desensitized me to hospital infections, worked on my neck and shoulders, diaphragm and solar plexus area. We’ll continue with the once a month treatments.

December 30, 2011 – His chiropractor said that Moses “hasn’t lost a beat” over the last month (i.e., he’s maintained his health over the last month). He detected a bit of congestion in his right lung and in his liver, but nothing that overly concerns his chiropractor. He adjusted his spine (in his neck) in a few locations, and did some overall balancing. He also desensitized him to shellfish. He tested him for fish again, and Moses is no longer reactive to the fish vial.  (Good to know, although we’re not quite ready to test this with real fish yet).  Moses only needed a 15 min appt.

As for me, he did mostly cranialsacral work on me, working on my head, and then near my sacrum. He said that when my sacrum released, I started to release energy through my third eye. He detected tiredness in my system. We’ll see him again in 6 weeks (I’m trying to make the health insurance benefits last as long as possible).

February 10, 2012 – This session was four days after Moses re-injured his eye. His chiropractor said that Moses’ body is feeling more “normal”, less tense and more relaxed. The base of his spine was tight. He worked on his “yeast” body point. (I had asked him to check him for fungal infections given that we recently stopped his antifungal medication). He desensitized him to the flu bio vial. At my request, he also whether he is sensitive to chocolate (he’s not). He’s still sensitive to eggs.

He said that my body doing the best that he’s seen it (less reactive). At my request, he desensitized me to egg yolk and gluten. I wasn’t sensitive to chocolate. He worked on my nervous system (at my head). He adjusted my lower back, and released my TMJ.

March 30, 2012 – The chiropractor desensitized Moses to juniper mix (i.e., environmental sensitivities to juniper trees), tomatoes (I didn’t know Moses was sensitive to tomatoes, but he eats a lot of ketchup, so I’m glad that he desensitized his body to tomatoes, if his body needed it) and gluten. He said that Moses’ lungs are doing well (whereas before they were “tense” and murky), now they are a lot clearer. He can still “sense/see” some pockets of congestion, but nothing like it was when he first started treating Moses. Great news! Also, he sensed that some nerve irritation to his left eye (the one that was injured and is still recovering slowly) was resolved during the treatment. Yay!

With me, he desensitized me to milk and mucous. He did cranialsacral work, working at both my head and sacrum. I felt like I really needed this session (feeling tired, anxious) and felt a lot softer and less anxious after the session. Overall, he thought my body is doing really well.

May 4, 2012 – The chiropractor spent a lot of time working with Moses’ eye (esp. his right one, which is the one that had a chalazion about a month ago). His spine is okay. His body overall has a lot of general agitation / activity going on (including his lungs), which he suspects is due to the homeopathy (in particular, Moses recently started clearing the cancer chronic miasm). He suggested that when Moses is having difficulty breathing, I can exert some light pressure on his diaphragm, just below his rib cage.

For me, he worked on my cheek bones (which was related to “my outer mask”), which seems to relate to the cancer chronic miasm that I recently cleared (i.e., letting go of my “nice” mask). He also worked on two other areas, including my occiput, related to trust and confidence. He felt that for the first time, my body opened up a crack and let the chiropractor do some deeper work. He also worked at my sacrum.

July 6, 2012 – The chiropractor desensitized Moses to a flu virus, and an IgG vial (to help his general immune system). He worked on Moses’s left eye, and did some releasing of his sacrum and his head. He adjusted C6 and L5. He found that he’s now doing more structural work on Moses and some fine-tuning. He feels that Moses overall is doing well. His body is more robust, solid and stable. He feels that he’s matured physically and is at a new stage of development. All great news!!

I’ve been very stressed lately with work, and the chiropractor worked to release some of that energy at both my head and sacrum. He suggested that I start a Vitamin B complex, and so I will.

July 25, 2012 – I saw my naturopath today and she gave me a cranialsacral session, in addition to stimulating 4 acupuncture points (the four gates). She told me that I went into still point easily, and on my own throughout the session. Also, for the first time ever, all of my pulses were healthy and well. Normally my pulses have a wiry quality (indicating a liver/gall bladder disharmony). I have a feeling that Donna Eden’s 5 minute daily energy routine has been helping to keep my energies balanced.

August 1, 2012 – The chiropractor helped release some of my neck tension. For Moses, he desensitized him to the sun, TMB module 1 (it’s like a reboot for the body), and nut mix. He loosened his sacrum and adjusted L5 (which might be tight due to his recent abscess on his bum) and C1. His organs are in good shape.

August 13, 2012 – The chiropractor helped release more of my neck tension. He detected some deep anger that will resolve on it’s own time (likely related to my homeopathic treatment — I’m clearing Medorrhinum and I also recently had a despacho ceremony related to healing my masculine side and also my relationship with  my father).

August 15, 2012 – My naturopath gave me a cranialsacral session, in addition to opening the four gates. My right (male) pulse was weak, and my left (female) pulse was strong, possibly related to the despacho ceremony that I did on the weekend that was to heal the masculine. Given that my masculine energy is typically strong, perhaps it is staying silent so that my feminine energy can have a say. My neck has been very sore lately. She felt that a lot was happening under the service, but it was a gentle flow. Of all of my centres, my neck needed more work.

August 20, 2012 – Moses has been getting IV antibiotics due to an MRSA infection. His chiropractor used some TBM vials to help his immune system, adjusted his cervical spine, released some pressure in his head and focused on draining his axillary area (where he has a swollen lymph node). He mentioned that his energy isn’t typical of someone who is sick, but his energy is running high and is pushing out. I took this as being a good sign, that Moses’ body is fighting hard against this infection.

August 27, 2012 – Moses was discharged from the hospital today after 10 days of IV antibiotics. The chiropractor adjusted his upper neck and cleared his system using TBM vials related to infections that can be picked up at a hospital. He worked on some body points, including lungs and related to bacteria. He unwound his right kidney. The rest of his spine was fine. His constitution is still strong.

The chiropractor helped release my system of stress and did some adjustments (C2 – related to “control”), L4 and T4 (this adjustment is often related to the gall bladder, feelings of resentment, ego and selfishness — likely related to some anger that I felt about being in the hospital). I found that the session helped me to reset after our time at the hospital.

September 7, 2012 – Moses is homeopathically clearing the hospital interventions, so he’s broken out and very wheezy. According to his chiropractor, he didn’t need any TBM vials, and he only needed structural adjustments (i.e., he didn’t need work on his organs).  He does need to drink a lot more water though.

For me, my throat chakra was blocked and I had some emotional content that was active in my abdominal area.

October 12, 2012 – Moses had another abscess drained under local anesthetic yesterday, and has been complaining of stomach cramps. His chiropractor released his neck and the base of his skull, which can be related to stomach upsets. Overall, Moses’ body is doing well. He only needed some minor body point corrections, and not major work on any of his organs (this is great news). He felt that his body was detoxing energetically, which is likely related to the fact that he started detoxing Syphilinum four days ago. His spine is good and his body is generally clear. Yay, yay, yay, yay, and yay!

I’ve started some work on releasing trauma in my body, and he felt that my body was working hard processing it all on an energetic level. In particular, my liver had a lot of activity.

November 15, 2012 – Moses had another abscess drained under general anesthetic last week, and another abscess that will need draining soon. His chiropractor said that his immune system is a bit challenged and depleted with all of these infections, so he used three TBM vials to help reset his system: 1) to clear infections, 2) TMB Module 1 to reset his system, and 3) to balance blood constituents. He reset his thymus gland body point, released the membranes inside his skull and adjusted T4 and L5.

For me, I’ve been fighting a cold and he said that my system was “full” (likely related to the Dying Consciously workshop that I recently attended) and all of Moses’ recent hospital visits.

December 10, 2012 -Moses was recently in the hospital for 12 days on IV antibiotics for an MRSA infection, which turned into pneumonia. His chiropractor worked on adjusting his upper neck and T2 (upper back). He cleared his liver and cleared his right bronchial (interesting Moses’ pneumonia had been in his right lung). He balanced his viral and bacterial points. he released his brain stem (and interestingly enough, Moses started to get an “itchy throat” after this). He felt that Moses’ body felt relaxed, “powered down”, but centred. To me, it seems like Moses has been in “rest mode” and doing really well over the last week.

January 23, 2013 – Moses has been using doTERRA essential oils for 6 weeks now, and his body is doing really well. The chiropractor mostly did structural work on him (some adjustments), did some work clearing his head and some points for his lungs (since he is still wheezing and still needing his puffer daily). He said that his lungs are better than they have been in the past, and he didn’t need as much work on his liver and kidney as he has in the past. All good news.

As for me, the chiropractor told me that he likes how my body is responding to the oils. There’s a different dynamic in the energy of my body, a different energy around my heart, but it’s a good thing. I had some releasing to do in my throat chakra. He worked a lot around my head and my sacrum and an adjustment in my thoracic spine.

March 1, 2013 – The chiropractor said that Moses is doing really well structurally (even better than last time) and there’s overall more ease in his body, but his lungs needed work. He recommended a karmic healer for Moses, which I’m going to follow up on.

For me, the chiropractor again re-iterated that he really likes how my body is responding to the essential oils. He can see how they are working on me emotionally. It’s bringing my emotions to the surface, especially around my jaw.

May 3, 2013 – Moses has been going through a difficult time (several abscesses, which I think were related to reflexology). His chiropractor said that structurally, he’s doing well. He just needed to adjust one spot on his thoracic spine. His chiropractor thought that energetically Moses seemed like pig pen, and he felt that it was, indeed related to a healing reaction. He particularly had congestion around his throat (and interestingly, Moses currently has an abscess on the back of his neck and throat). He did a toxins point on him, to help his body rid itself of toxins. He felt like his lungs were in pretty good shape (in the last week, it has seemed like Moses’ body has been more congested — he’s been using his ventolin puffer more frequently in the last week). The chiropractor felt that Moses’ body responded well to the treatment and that it helped to clear his system. Yay.

As for me, my body was in pretty good shape. He did some overall clearing.

Chiropractic and Cranialsacral Therapy

Now that we’ve moved to a new neighbourhood, I wanted to find a local chiropractor.  Moses had been regularly seeing a chiropractor since he was 11 days old, but we got out of the habit of seeing one for various reasons.

I love the new chiropractor that we found! Gentle energy, very knowledgeable. My body felt very safe in his hands. And what’s even more fabulous is that he does cranialsacral therapy, as well as other energetic techniques. I’ve been wanting to find a cranialsacral therapist, so I feel like the universe had its hand in this. The session felt more like an energy healing session than a chiropractic  session.

Craniosacral Therapy is a very gentle hands-on body therapy that uses light forces and specific holds to release blockages within the bodily tissues. The technique is based on the premise that unprocessed physical and emotional trauma is stored in the body’s tissues in an attempt to wall-off its harmful effects.

Through this therapy the balance and flexibility of the bodily tissues, soft tissues, skull, spinal column and pelvis are able to pulsate. This pulsing helps to create the forces necessary to circulate cerebrospinal fluid, which is important in the nourishing and insulating of sensitive neural structures of the brain and spinal cord. This in turn promotes increased vitality and enhanced health. Improving the function of this entire system has been known to have a positive effect on the health of those suffering from such things as autism, chronic pain, head injury, depression, learning disabilities including ADD and dyslexia, migraines, nervous disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder, scoliosis, soft tissue injuries (especially from motor vehicle accidents and post-operative scarring) and sports injuries.

The chiropractor was able to see / feel a lot in my body and find potential reasons for the chronic neck and shoulder tension that I’ve carried for more than a decade. At the end of the assessment, he used muscle testing to find out what treatment my body most needed today and my body, of course, responded that it needed cranialsacral therapy. It was deep and powerful. I felt emotions being released (related to my childhood) and felt a bit vulnerable after the session. But, it did feel like it was exactly what I needed. Some body work to support the Heilkunst healing.

The session reminded me how much the body holds. The body holds so much stored emotion. For the last 10+ years, I have been on a journey to release my body’s tension, anxiety, old wounds, old stories and old traumas. I am always amazed that regardless of how much work I’ve done, my body still tells healers its  story. I am happy to have found this new chiropractor / body worker who can help to unblock and release some of its old stories.

I would like my new body story to be one of ease, health and grace.

I’m also excited that he treats children. I told the chiropractor about Moses and he felt that he could support his healing. I have no doubt that he can.

Interesting links about cranialsacral therapy and autism:

• Interesting article about the benefits of cranialsacral therapy, chiropractic treatment and Reiki for autistic children.

• Fascinating blog that follows the progress of Brendan, a boy with autism, who is receiving cranialsacral therapy and homeopathic treatment. His parents, the cranialsacral therapist and the homeopath are all contributors to the blog, so you can read about their various viewpoints.
