Lyme Disease: A Holistic Treatment That Truly Heals

Lyme Disease and Chronic Infection Syndrome are complex for several reasons. Lyme, once considered to solely be transmitted by ticks, has become more widespread than ever. Documented cases are now indicating that Lyme Disease, a vector-borne illness, can be transmitted through any infected insect that exchanges blood or saliva. Examples include mosquitoes, fleas, horseflies, ticks etc. Often the severity of an individual’s symptoms will largely depend on how early a diagnosis is established and how quickly treatment is initiated. It is imperative to receive a customized treatment plan to effectively address the acute pathogens and its co-infections, as well as support the body to reestablish its innate immune response.

As Susan Rohr, owner of Brookfield Health &Wellness, LLC, explains; “Unfortunately, most cases of Lyme Disease are not identified early enough to be treated with antibiotics. It isn’t until it becomes a chronic multi-systemic infection of virus, bacteria, fungus, and parasites that people realize they have it. At this point, the immune system can become severely weakened and require alternative forms of treatment to overcome the disease.”

Helping the body strengthen its natural healing abilities is the key to fighting illness of any kind. Energy and oxidative therapies are core components used to accomplish exactly that in many successfully treated patients with Lyme Disease. By identifying the root cause of illness, and utilizing some of the world’s most innovative energy technologies of this century, there truly is hope and healing for those who may show:

  • Appearance of a growing red area akin to a “bulls-eye” 3 to 30 days after an infected tick bite
  • Flu-like symptoms: Fever, chills, fatigue, body aches, and headache
  • Joint pain and joint swelling

Through an integrative approach, Susan can help to identify the root cause of illness and customize a treatment plan for each patient. The use of bioenergetic modalities have been found to be extremely effective in helping people compromised with Lyme, and other co­infections to heal. Some of these advanced technologies include the Ondamed, Qi-5, NuVision, Ampcoil and AO Scan. Iasis Microcurrent Neurofeedback is another important treatment used to aid in the healing process of Lyme recovery.

Iasis Microcurrent Neurofeedback enables the restoration of optimal cognitive function through healing unhealthy or stuck patterns in the brain. Additionally, chiropractic care, proper nutrition, supplementation, rest and stress management are all helpful adjuncts as well. Proper alignment, hydration and nourishment all contribute to the body being able to flush toxins more productively. Our Energy Enhancement System, the most recent addition in our arsenal of technology, will increase cellular voltage enabling the body to support and heal itself.

According to the Mayo Clinic, neurological problems can occur in the weeks, months or even years after infection such as: meningitis, temporary paralysis of one side of the face (Bell’s palsy), numbness or weakness in the limbs or impaired muscle movement.
