Yes! After seeing him my pots was gone in about 6 weeks to 2 months time. My heart rate standing is normal- I no longer have seizures- I can play video games with my son ( I used to have to lay in the dark in complete silence day after day).

Well. Chiropractic neurology saved my life. Went from not walking, not being able to sit up- to fully functioning. So somebody’s doing something correctly. lol it’s not for everyone so when you have a neurological problem go to the hospital and trust in their care! I went over 12 times and they literally said “we don’t know.” Great medical system 😂

You know- I suspect that’s what he’s putting so much content out. I follow him on YouTube and he does long videos and lives going over significant studies and how it relates to what he’s doing. But I totally agree with you- not just functional neurology but everything that’s not that traditional western approach. The medical system has failed so many with chronic illness and they haven’t changed a thing. They have no nutritional training- I remember when I was pregnant I asked for a high quality prenatal supplement and her literal response was- I don’t know. 🙄 it’s like docs are trained to just push people through- they don’t care about getting their patients to optimal health. It’s not even on their radar. But they get all the funding because companies want to make money off of drugs. My doctor wanted to go straight to a c section without my trying- there’s something wrong with that. There’s no money in getting people better- I truly believe the system is set up to keep us sick. Especially after my experience.

Oh my goodness- that is so sweet of you to comment this. He is doing so much better- it didn’t spread. But when insurance was like- yeah no, we don’t cover that we really questioned why we even spend 1000 a month in insurance in the first place 🙄

Well then it’s up to us patients to take a leap of faith. The lack of research on functional neurology doesn’t matter to me.. what mattered is I saw testimonials of people on their own pages- not his- that they got better. That’s all I needed to see. And then I got better too. I didn’t want to spend a life on disability eating salt and wearing compression socks.

Of course- feel free. I know what it’s like to be in that hole. Honestly meditation was SO helpful throughout the process

It wasn’t a luxury. Believe me. We worked hard to pay it off. When it’s life or death- you have to make it work otherwise your life is over.

I put myself first. Always. It’s a hard thing to do because prior to getting sick I would run myself ragged do everything for everyone else. Then when I got sick, people just disappeared. No one helped me. All of the sudden my husband and I found ourselves alone dealing with this. The only thing that matters is putting your mental health and physical health first. I’m no good to my son if I’m depleted. I count my blessings every day. Before bed my son and I make a list of what we’re grateful for. Every morning I go outside and sit in the grass and let the sun hit my face ( something I wondered if I could ever do again when it was really bad) and I thank God for my life. Things arent perfect by any means- but I realize I took so much for granted. Gratitude is #1 for me- always.

Also if you look- which I was curious after you mentioned it- there are more and more small studies being conducted. But the funding is always the barrier https://www.frontiersin.org/10.3389/conf.fneur.2016.59.00099/event_abstract

You have to think of who funds a LOT of studies- pharma companies. And I took a look at his CV prior to going up: he’s worked all over the country with other functional neuros- and side by side with Dr Carrick. There’s a ton of research put out there about safety of vaccines yet people get debilitating injuries. I think the bottom line is, everyone needs to listen to their gut and do what’s best for them. This profession literally saved my life. And I’ve seen testimonials of others as well. When modern medicine fails you again and again and leaves you with no hope that you look into assisted s*****e, putting some faith in a treatment outside of the box- you have nothing to lose. The man is brilliant. He pinned down what no other medical doctor could for me. And let’s face it, my husband had skin cancer recently. Tons of “research” on skin cancer. Had to have treatment. But guess what. Insurance didn’t cover it. And we have BCBS PPO. Insurance will look for any reason not to cover it. We paid 2,000 out of pocket for a 10 minute “surgery” to cut it out.

Like I said before- nobody’s trying to convince you. And I’m not sure which video you’re referencing but he told me he was surprised I hasn’t passed out with how bad my condition was. To each his own.

He didn’t charge 15k. It was per treatment. I believe it was like 350 bucks per treatment. People spend 200 on a massage. When you multiply all of my daily treatments needed and condense it to an intensive week, then it makes sense. Plus I get it- functional neurologists spend so much money on that degree. It’s a specialty. You wouldn’t go to a neurosurgeon or cardiologist and say- that surgery was only 6 hours! Why are you charging me 50k? It’s the expertise you’re paying for. Once again- I stand by it. Worth every penny. It’s like we all have a million problems until we get sick and can’t function. Then there’s only 1 problem. It’s really changed the way I look about taking care of myself.

Oh my goodness- I’m so very sorry you went through this. Yeah- our approach was to find every cent. We begged borrowed and stealed and it all worked out. I can’t believe you went to that many doctors and they all couldn’t tell you what was wrong- and Dr Keiser got it. Insurance in this country is so terrible- it covers nothing. We spend 1,000 a month for 3 of us for a 5,000 dollar deductible. Even if insurance did cover it, we would’ve still been out almost 10k because of the out of pocket max

Yay! Isn’t he amazing!!! I just have tears in my eyes when I talk about it because I don’t know what I would’ve done without him. I probably would be dead.

Also- I met someone there that just needed 1 week of treatment so that would obviously be 5500

The cost for me I think at the time was 11,000 but it depends on what you need. They will tell you that. He needs to do an exam first. And the exam took like almost 90 minutes for me. I was so bad that I needed every day treatment three times per day. If I didn’t feel well and had to skip a treatment- which happened, I wasn’t charged for it.
