Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I wrote this book to share my knowledge and experience with apometry, a technique that I believe has the potential to help people with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT). At its heart, this book is a testament to the power of innovation and the relentless pursuit of solutions. It introduces you to the concept of Apometry, a revolutionary therapeutic approach that goes beyond conventional boundaries, offering hope and healing to those who have long been searching for answers. We delve into the intricacies of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), Regression Therapy, and Hypnosis, unveiling their potential as complementary tools in the treatment. These techniques, often viewed with skepticism, are explored with a sense of curiosity and a commitment to discovering their true efficacy. CMT is a complex and challenging condition, and there is no cure. However, there are many things that can be done to manage the symptoms and improve quality of life. Apometry is a complementary therapy that can be used in conjunction with traditional medical care. It is based on the belief that all diseases have a mental or emotional component, and that by addressing these underlying issues, it is possible to facilitate physical healing. I have been practicing apometry for many years, and I have seen firsthand the positive effects that it can have on people's health. In this book, I will share with you what I have learned about apometry, including its history, theory, and practice. I hope that this book will help you to learn more about apometry and to consider whether it is a therapy that could be helpful for you.

Download or read book Neurological Diseases and Pregnancy written by Emma Ciafaloni and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For a woman of reproductive age, any medical appointment is a pre-conception visit and an opportunity to address pre-existing conditions that affect pregnancy and the maternal-fetal dyad. However, many neurologic conditions are rarely seen in pregnancy, and limited experience and knowledge may prevent the team from developing a shared approach to these complex conditions during pregnancy. Neurological Diseases and Pregnancy: A Coordinated Care Model for Best Management brings together experts across the disciplines of maternal fetal medicine, neurology, obstetrics, family planning, genetics, anesthesia, psychiatry, neurosurgery, and lactation to provide a multi-disciplinary, comprehensive, protocol-driven guide on best care for patients with neurologic disease before, during and after pregnancy. Each chapter provides a detailed care map on each unique disorder, and discusses the use of neurological medications during pregnancy and in lactation. Through this multi-disciplinary approach clinicians can navigate the complexities of preconception and pregnancy care, and help to optimize outcomes for the mother-infant dyad. Beyond pregnancy care, this volume further serves as a resource on best care for the life-course of women affected by neurologic disease including pre-pregnancy planning, genetic counseling, contraception, and sexuality in neurologic disease, as well as post-partum depression and menopausal neurologic changes.

Download or read book Charcot Marie Tooth Disorders written by Michael E. Shy and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 572 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume discusses developments in research and clinical aspects of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT), the most common peripheral neuropathy in humans. The genetic causes of most of the demyelinating forms of CMT have now been identified, and the molecular biology of peripheral nervous structure and the function of many of the molecules involved in the pathogenesis of CMT are becoming clearer. With the development of viral vectors to introduce genes into the peripheral nervous system, as well as the trophic factors to promote nerve regeneration and remyelination, gene therapy for CMT is becoming a realistic possibility. These issues, among others, are explored in this volume, and areas of future research are outlined.

Written by a radiation oncologist and cancer researcher, Taking Charge of Cancer offers an insider’s guide to understanding and receiving the best treatment options, choosing the right medical team, and approaching this difficult time with knowledge and hope. Receiving a cancer diagnosis can be terrifying, and the first thing you probably want to know is: How am I going to survive this? Cancer care requires decisions from numerous professionals, delivering treatments that are potentially life-saving, but also potentially dangerous and life-threatening. The chances of cure and survival for any given patient depend on the expertise of the cancer team, and whether procedures are in place to ensure that cancer care is delivered properly. So, how can you make sure you choose the right treatment team and ensure the best chances of survival and long-term health after being diagnosed with cancer? Taking Charge of Cancer is a different type of book for cancer patients—one that goes beyond the cancer information that is currently available, allowing you to truly take control of your cancer treatment. You’ll learn how to obtain and understand medical records, and why these records are critical to your care. You’ll also find the tools you’ll need to determine if the recommendations made by doctors are in keeping with accepted treatment guidelines. You’ll discover how doctors use evidence to decide which treatments are best, as well as how doctors can become biased in their recommendations. And, most importantly, you’ll be able to evaluate whether surgery, radiation, or chemotherapy make the most sense in your specific case—and whether or not these serious treatments are being delivered effectively and safely according to the highest standards. Now that you’ve received a cancer diagnosis, it’s time to set a plan in motion for your recovery. This book will help you do just that—every step of the way.
Download or read book Black Brown Bruised written by Ebony Omotola McGee and published by Harvard Education Press. This book was released on 2021-02-01 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2022 PROSE Award Finalist Drawing on narratives from hundreds of Black, Latinx, and Indigenous individuals, Ebony Omotola McGee examines the experiences of underrepresented racially minoritized students and faculty members who have succeeded in STEM. Based on this extensive research, McGee advocates for structural and institutional changes to address racial discrimination, stereotyping, and hostile environments in an effort to make the field more inclusive. Black, Brown, Bruised reveals the challenges that underrepresented racially minoritized students confront in order to succeed in these exclusive, usually all-White, academic and professional realms. The book provides searing accounts of racism inscribed on campus, in the lab, and on the job, and portrays learning and work environments as arenas rife with racial stereotyping, conscious and unconscious bias, and micro-aggressions. As a result, many students experience the effects of a racial battle fatigue—physical and mental exhaustion borne of their hostile learning and work environments—leading them to abandon STEM fields entirely. McGee offers policies and practices that must be implemented to ensure that STEM education and employment become more inclusive including internships, mentoring opportunities, and curricular offerings. Such structural changes are imperative if we are to reverse the negative effects of racialized STEM and unlock the potential of all students to drive technological innovation and power the economy.
