Ozone Therapy and New Friends!

Hello there and a Happy 4th to you and yours!

I've been having a flare up in my nerves and joints so I went to Anatara Medicine yesterday for Ozone Therapy. It's important that I keep my body in the best state possible to get the most out of the upcoming Stem Cell procedure!  In Ozone Therapy some blood is removed and pure oxygen is added to it. It then is put back in intravenously and can have some amazing results. Immediately after I can breath a little deeper and as it works it's magic, bacterial and viral loads are reduced, inflammation is reduced and energy is improved!  The biggest blessing was a much needed great night's sleep last night!  My pain has also lessened although it isn't gone. I'll be going back to SF on Monday for one more ozone treatment so hopefully it knocks out the last of the inflammation!


Besides a great day with my family in the City, the highlight of my day was speaking with another patient, Ellen, during the Ozone Therapy. We are all in a room similar to Dialysis so it's a wonderful time of chatting and bonding.  Ellen is a beautiful, vibrant and kind woman who happens to be battling Breast Cancer.  Her doctors recommended surgery and all the traditional treatments however after weighing the pros and cons she decided to go the natural route. For her this includes Ozone Therapy, Vitamin C drips, CBD Oil (Medical marijuana with no psychoactive components, etc). She is doing amazing and is healthier than she was before she was diagnosed. Her blood markers show huge improvements in the cancer and she will have an MRI on Monday where she will learn how much the tumors have shrunk. It was such an encouragement to meet this marvelous woman! Although our health situations are very different, we're members of the same club in wanting to be well without all the awful side effects in traditional medicine. She walks a very courageous path and I was honored to spend some time talking with her! If you read this Ellen, thank you for sharing a bit about your story with me. Congratulations on an amazing recovery and best wishes to you!

For all of you who are battling your own health issues, be encouraged! If you know someone struggling with something similar, be an encouragement to them. It is stories like this that help people so much!

xoxo,
Linda
