My Alternative Medicine Experience
Quick, Easy and Natural
My experience with Alternative Medicine didn't start until I was well into my 40's. I grew up with allergies and they became worse with each passing year. I never tolerated the over-the-counter pills that were sold for dealing with allergies. Eventually I started taking shots of Kenalog. I had an allergy, the Doc said take the shot and I did. Unfortunately, I did not ask question one. Later, a guy I worked with that knew the difference between health and stupidity, told me that Kenalog was a steroid and that I might want to check out the side effects of long term usage. I did and I quit.
My Naturopath
A few years later I went to a naturopath and told her my story and in 2 visits she had my allergies under control.She explained to me that I didn’t have “hay fever.” What I did have was an imbalance (I distinctly remember her not saying I was unbalanced :) in my system. After she had helped me get my system back in balance the symptom “hay fever” went away.
How She Works
My Naturopath used applied kinesiology (muscle testing) to figure out what I was reacting to. Once she had those things identified, she did more muscle testing to figure out which supplements would put me back in balance.Then she: - instructed me what not to eat for the next 25 hours
- took an activator (like a chiropractor has) & used it on me
- handed me 2 bottles of supplements
- had me wash my hands and
- made an appointment for me the following week
After the second appointment, no more symptoms (sneezing, runny nose and itching eyes). It was wonderful! Not only that, but once the supplements balanced my system I didn't have to take them anymore.
The Naturopath's Philosopy
The six defining principles of a naturopath further illustrate the natural health philosophy and approach that is used in alternative medicine:- First do no harm.
- Nature has the power to heal.
- Treat the whole person.
- Treat the cause.
- Prevent disease.
- Doctor as teacher.
My Recommendation
If you have never experienced the style of “doctoring” that a naturopath practices, I encourage you to do so.It is empowering to me to put something in my mouth (supplements) that will help bring balance to my system. I much prefer this to taking a drug that will suppress the symptom, but harm my health. The naturopath that I visited practices in the State of Washington in Bellevue and Soap Lake. Her name is Sigrid Penrod, phone number 425-451-0107. To find a naturopath near you go to
Alternative Medicine.
However, if you don't want to give alternative medicine a try you can always go in multiple times to an MD, take drugs, suffer the side effects and still have “hay fever.” Be aware, think for yourself, and take control of your own health!
