If you are reading this ...

If you are reading this post, it's either because you found your way to it on the internet or because someone who cares about has directed you to it. You most likely have knee pain, probably severe enough that it's interfering with your life. You may have difficulty getting up or sitting down without supporting your weight with your hands, going up or down stairs, of even walking. The pain may be sharp or dull, intermittent or, as one of my clients put it, "like a permanent toothache". You may have consulted a professional such as a doctor or a physiotherapist, or both. You may have had cortisone injections that gave short-term relief. You may now be waiting for a knee replacement and worrying about it, most likely about the chance of a negative outcome, the length of the recovery, and the cost.

No matter what stage you are at, I can help. As a bioenergy therapist I have made many knees feel better. The best part of bioenergy therapy is that it doesn't have to be hands on -- it can be long distance. So long as we connect, on Skype or by phone, I can work with you. You will know right after the first session whether it worked, because if it has, there will be noticeable change. Generally I recommend four sessions. Some people need fewer, some more.

Feel free to browse through this blog to see what is possible, and then if you want, get in touch. Your first session is by donation, so you really have nothing to lose but your pain!

Shout it from the roof-tops: "Up To A Third Of Knee Replacements Pack Pain And Regret"

Here is the link to the article, and here the meat-and-potatoes part of the article:

Research suggests that up to one-third of those who have knees replaced continue to experience chronic pain, while 1 in 5 are dissatisfied with the results. A study published last year in the BMJ found that knee replacement had “minimal effects on quality of life,” especially for patients with less severe arthritis.

The article references a study entitled "Impact of Total Knee Replacement Practice". The study concludes:

The practice of total knee replacement as performed in a recent US cohort of patients with knee osteoarthritis had minimal effects on quality of life. If the procedure were restricted to patients with more severe functional status, however, its effectiveness would rise.

There are supposed to be 3.5 million knee replacements a year by 2030. A third of those patients, more than 1.1 million people, will continue to experience chronic pain. That's insane. Surely I can help a few thousand of them not to need this painful and expensive procedure in the first place!
