Replacement Modalities for Multiple Sclerosis
IceKap
When you overexert yourself during mental or physical activity and athletic performance, your body’s core temperature rises. This includes the temperature of your brain. A rising body and brain temperature is a natural process and an important step in the road to your body’s recovery as it is your body’s natural reaction to, and way of dealing with, the stress of overexertion. When your body overheats, the quickest remedy is to apply ice to the head and neck. This remedy, known as external cooling, slowly yet effectively lowers the
brain's temperature, leading your to feel better faster and push even harder during the final leg of the race.
This gradual reduction in overall brain and body temperature has a positive impact on healing, with spot treatment to the head and neck being an even faster way to speed up the healing process and road to recovery. Performance athletes in particular should be especially keen on icing their heads during games, as icing during times of rest reduces the strain that heat puts on the body and actually increases athletic performance out on the field.
Castor Oil Pack
What is Castor Oil?
-
Castor oil, derived from the castor seed, has been used for thousands of years to treat a wide variety of health conditions, although scientific studies are few; there are reports of some side negative effects from castor oil, so you should proceed with caution in experimenting with its use
-
Castor seeds contain very high concentrations of a special fatty acid called ricinoleic acid, thought to underlie its healing properties
-
Castor beans also contain a potent toxin called ricin—so deadly that it’s used for chemical warfare—but don’t worry, this agent is NOT present in the oil
-
Castor oil is claimed to treat gastrointestinal and genitourinary problems, all types of infections, and pain and inflammation, and is said to stimulate your immune system;science is also exploring the use of ricinas an antitumor agent
-
Advocates claim castor oil is most effective for strengthening your lymphatic system when it is applied topically in a “castor oil pack,” a treatment popularized by the late psychic healer Edgar Cayce
Functional Medicine/Find a Hero Doctor
I am extremely grateful for my doctors(s) that worked on my case, without them this article would not have been possible. I had my genome examined, which was pretty interesting, I found out alot about myself. I had an IgG food sensitivty test done which showed some pretty interesting findings, I had immune reactions to some foods that I thought I would but also immune reactions to unlikely foods. I had a bunch of other blood tests done, I don't know how I still have blood left lol. I was on array of supplements- Omega 3 (Fatty Acids), Liver Flow (Supports the liver), Delish Digest (Digestive Enzymes), Vitamin D, ALA Practice, Alka Practice, Probiotics, NAC Practice and Vitamin C. I didn't know how important they were tell I didn;t take them for 3 days and felt like crap. I did Chelation therapy which removes heavy metals from the body, which was the source of my issues, remember me saying earlier everybody is unique, two bodies aren't the same, everybody has different problems and different solutions too. In a final note I can't stress enough to you how important it is to find someone who takes a holistic approach to your healthcare, I went to 5 Neurologists... just 5... only 5 and I got absolutely no anwsers. Functional Medicine is the most important step i'm taking to recover my health, don't let the position on the list of remedies I'm using fool you, Functional Medicine is the most important tool, this list is in no particular order of importance. It's important to remember MD's don't cure anything, there literally isn't a cure for anything, MD's are gonna cure chronic disease though, they can't cure heartburn but will be able to cure MS... give me a break.

doTerra Essential Oils / Nature's Essential Works
Essentials oils are the newest trend. If you are late to the party, that’s OK. They’ve been around for centuries so they are likely to stick around for a while more. There’s plenty of research behind this aromatic fad. We’ve uncovered some ways essential oils that might help with multiple sclerosis.
Like herbs and minerals, the FDA does not regulate essentials oils. Most medical doctors don’t consider them a valid treatment for what ails you, but those who use them are true believers. But check with your doctor first. If you have allergies or anaphylaxis, you’ll probably want to avoid most essential oils. By and large, though, they’re worth a try.
The National Center for Biotechnology Information states that, in MS patients, “essential oils (aromatherapy) may give symptomatic relief with sleep, relaxation, joint mobility, and an improved sense of well-being.
Foot Ion Detox
Why We Highly Recommend the Ionic Foot Bath Detoxification Therapy
Eliminating toxins is the first step in giving the body a chance to heal itself. There are over 360 acupuncture points on the body with more than 60 on the soles of the feet. Acupuncture points and reflexology points reflect the organs and other areas of the body which make the feet ideal for detoxification. Today our toxic exposure is at an all time high and toxins are one of the primary causes of degenerative diseases.
How Does Foot Ion Detox Work?
It works through an ionization osmosis environment running negative ions through our body, pulling and attracting the positively charged impurities, toxins and heavy metals out through the feet into the saline charged solution in the bath. The energized ionized water runs through your body, bringing the body’s chi and meridians back into balance where one might feel energized and relaxed. The ion detox foot bath system ionizes the bath water with the units submersible water module. When your feet are immersed in the water during a 30-minute bath, the process sets up a type of osmosis condition which draws out toxins within the body. Impurities are pulled from the body, improving the body’s natural resilience. There is noticeable change in the water color from the time the process begins and when the process is complete. What you are actually seeing is the cellular waste and oxidation present in the water.
We hope this information gives you clear reasons on why this wellness detox treatment could be so good for you! If you don’t live in South Florida, please search out a med spa which is reputable and has experience in these types of therapeutic treatments.

Access Consciousness
Access Bars is a gentle hands-on modality that was introduced by Gary Douglas in the early 1990s. It consists of 16 bars of energy that run through and around your head. These bars connect at specific “bars-points” and correlate to different areas and aspects of life. During an Access Bars session, a practitioner gently touches these points to release the electromagnetic charge of all thoughts, ideas, attitudes, decisions, and beliefs that may have limited you in the concerned life areas.
Today Access Bars is practiced in over 170 countries world wide, used as a potent and pragmatic tool by families, schools, businesses, athletes, prison wards, psychologists, artists and many more.
Fasting
When the stored glucose has been used up, the body then begins to burn fat as a source of energy, which can result in weight loss. A detoxification process also occurs, because any toxins stored in the body's fat are dissolved and removed from the body," Dr. Razeem Mehroof says, noting that after a few days of fasting, higher levels of endorphins - "feel-good" hormones - are produced in the blood, which can have a positive impact on mental well-being.

Earthing
Earthing (or grounding) refers to the discovery of benefits—including better
sleep and reduced pain—from walking barefoot outside or sitting, working, or
sleeping indoors connected to conductive systems that transfer the Earth's
electrons from the ground into the body.
Research on grounding or earthing does show solid evidence of increasing
your overall health through better sleep or lower inflammation or even better
blood flow. This research is typically done while a subject is sleeping, but
some effects were even measured while subjects were awake.
Iridology
Iridology (also known as iridodiagnosis [1] or iridiagnosis [2] ) is an alternative
medicine technique whose proponents claim that patterns, colors, and other
characteristics of the iris can be examined to determine information about a

charts, which divide the iris into zones that correspond to specific parts of the
human body. Iridologists see the eyes as "windows" into the body's state of
health.
NeoDymium Magnet
A neodymium magnet is the most widely used type of rare-earth magnet. It is a permanent magnet made from an alloy of neodymium, iron, and boron to form the tetragonal crystalline structure. Developed independently in 1984 by General Motors and Sumitomo Special Metals, neodymium magnets are the strongest type of permanent magnet available commercially. Because of different manufacturing processes, they are divided into two subcategories, namely sintered NdFeB magnets and bonded NdFeB magnets. They have replaced other types of magnets in many applications in modern products that require strong permanent magnets, such as electric motors in cordless tools, hard disk drives and magnetic fasteners.

Sleep
When you sleep, there are less demands made on your heart. Your blood pressure will drop and your heart will be able to take a break. Sleep also causes the body to release hormones that can slow breathing, and relax other muscles in the body. This process can reduce inflammation and assist with healing.
Cooling Blanked
When we sleep, our bodies release heat into our mattresses and bedding, considerably warming the area around us. The problem is that some mattresses and bedding trap this heat and moisture, rather than release it, leading to a night of tossing and turning in the bed equivalent of a sauna. If you have also wondered, “do cooling mattresses work?” or “do cooling sheets work?”, the answer is yes. Yet, if you do not have a mattress specifically designed to keep you cool, cooling blankets can help you achieve a better night’s sleep. Cooling blankets use special fabrics to wick away the moisture. And thermal conduction takes care of the natural body heat that may get trapped.
Cooling Pillow
Many cooling pillows come with an external gel layer scientifically engineered to keep you cool. It's not always gel though; some use other types of foam. These work by absorbing body heat from your neck and head, dispersing it across the cooling layer, and leaving you with a fresh, not-too-hot feeling all night long.

Conclusion
I can show you the door, I can't make you walk through it (that's a metaphor) meaning I can tell you what I'm doing for my recovery, it might be a little different for you. Your laughing and well on your way if you work with a functional medicine doctor, I hope no one goes the conventional route when treating their autoimmune condition. The old paradigm of your condition getting worse (MS especially) and only going downhill couldn't be further from the truth, you can get better which will be the hill that I die on trying to explain to people. My one Aquafit instructor said "it must be hard" and I said "no its incredibly hard", I can't promise your journey will be easy but I can promise it will be worth it in the end. It takes time to recover your health, its not an overnight process, every journey begins with a single step, I know its probably a little overwhelming all the information but go at your own pace, it's not a race you know, you don't need to achieve everything right away, Rome wasn't built in a day. neither will you recover in a day. Don't give up, suffering, barely getting by isn't the end of your story. You know your body better than any doctor will be able to, do what you feel is right. Base hits wins you the ball game, not home runs, just keep that in mind, there wasn't one holy grail therapy that I use, all the modalities mentioned above all do their part and are all equally important, you CAN and WILL experience a healthy life but you have to understand what works to improve your health and equally important understand what doesn't so you can stop doing it, it's silly/stupid to keep doing something that makes you feel bad, you wouldn't order something off a menu that you didn't like, it's the same idea with doing something that makes you feel bad, STOP IT.
You now have all you need for your recovery, I wish you all the best.
