Aluminum toxicity can cause a number of serious effects. The aluminum then accumulates in your body and can negatively affect the functioning of your muscles, spleen, kidneys, heart, brain and other organs. You can turn to treatments like acupuncture for aluminum toxicity, provided you combine such methods with traditional Western medical treatments and intervention.
Instructions
The Process
1. Make a list of all of your symptoms so that you can present them to your physician and to the acupuncturist. Information medical professionals need includes whether or not you are experiencing muscle fatigue, pain in the bones, confusion, a change in your mental awareness, immunological difficulties, the onset of osteoporosis or seizures.
2. Make an appointment with your general practitioner to assess the levels of aluminum in your body. Get X-rays, a blood test for anemia, a bone biopsy, and/or a deferoxamine test as requested by your physician.
3. Take all of the deferoxamine mesylate as prescribed by the doctor and complete the course of the medication for cleansing the body of accumulated aluminum.
4. Make an appointment with an acupuncturist and get an initial evaluation of your condition; share your list of symptoms with the acupuncturist and your medical diagnosis of aluminum toxicity. Tell the acupuncturist about the medication you have been prescribed, if any.
5. Allow the acupuncturist to inspect your tongue and face. Allow the acupuncturist to perform olfaction examinations to assess your body odor, if any is present, and allow for the acupuncturist to perform auscultation examinations to listen to your intake and exhalation of breath. Answer all of the acupuncturist's inquiries related to fever, chills, sweating, your level of hunger, thirst, and your sense of taste as well as your pain levels, your menses flow if you are female, and your sleep patterns.
6. Permit the acupuncturist to examine you so that palpation testing can be performed. Let the acupuncturist know when a tender trigger point has been identified.
7. Follow the acupuncturist's instructions about position yourself when the filiform needles are used at various points in the body. Take the herbal remedies prescribed by the acupuncturist following treatment, provided that you check to make sure that the herbs will not interact with any other medications you are taking.
8. Follow through on any exercises and lifestyle changes recommended by the acupuncturist. Return for treatment as needed.
