I am a 62 year old female who was diagnosed with osteoporosis and rheumatoid arthritis over ten years ago. Anyone familiar with either form of arthritis will tell you that they each are very painful and that the scientific community has yet to discover a cure. I have had friends who also have lived with this disease and put their trust in traditional medical physicians. Some friends have died, not of the disease but the constant trial and error of replacement pharmaceutical medications and the agony of the pain.
In addition to arthritis, both a torn meniscus and fractured patella were diagnosed on the left and I had difficulty walking. Unable to tolerate standard COX 2 drugs, I have had three rheumatoid specialists prescribe drugs to kill the pain. I had my knee drained as well as cortisone shots injected directly into the joints. I have had MRIs and over $1500 worth of x-rays. Still, I remained in pain, especially in my left knee which an orthopedic surgeon wanted to replace.
In 2007, I decided to try holistic treatments and read about Advanced Health Solutions in Denver. Dr. Steven Swartz gave me treatments for my arthritis and also encourged me to try the skills of Judith Heath who does Quantum Energetics Structured Therapy. The result of her sessions have been better and longer lasting than any treatment I have tried and I'm not being stuffed with drugs!!!
