About "natural healing" +edit Re: Oxford Knees

"I'm sorry, but you don't know that's what she's experiencing with any certainty at all."

Oh but I do.  Cartilage doesn't grind.   Bone does.  Her orthopedic doctor will verify that.  I also had cartilage clearing procedures done on my knee as well.  I know the difference between a cartilage problem/tear and a bone on bone condition.

'So sorry, but you cannot look at a post (or two or three) on an internet forum and give a solid diagnosis...that's just silly.  Just because you read something that sounds similar to what you experienced, doesn't mean it IS what you experienced...no matter how much you (or I, or anyone else) actually knows.

Having researched this topic for my own condition the only thing that I've seen is a possible cartilage transplant like the one here:

http://www.sportsinjurybulletin.com/archive/cartilage-transplants.html and there is no proof that any medical implant or regeneration attempt does in fact work.

Hmmm, the "only thing you've seen "  doesn't seem to include using hyaluronic acid/hyaluronin OR gelatin OR comfrey, or any other substances known to assist in cartilage regeneration.

I looked at alternative methods of regeneration and they simply don't exist. Sadly, you didn't look far enough...and (also sadly) you're giving erroneous advice based on your lack of knowledge.  I see that you've just posted a link to the "knee support forum"...and while (of course) this is a knee issue, there's never ANY issue in the body that doesn't involve the entire body.  This forum is based upon the works & protocols of Dr. Schulze & Dr. Christopher (and other similar healers).  We have evidence that these healers were able to regenerate cartilage (even bone), when they addressed the entire body and not just the part of the body that exhibits the symptoms.  (Btw, if you are familiar with the protocols of these healers, and you'd like to post in this forum to support others, or ask questions so you can learn more about the concepts & protocols of truly Natural Healing, you are more than welcome.  But if you're going to continue posting 'it can't be done' because you believe you know better than the healers upon which the forum is based, then please understand that future posts are likely to be deleted - or you'll be blocked from posting).

Although the information (inset following) is available on this forum throughout various posts, I want to take the time to summarize it here (for both you and onecrazyday).

Our bodies have a very strong & solid "priority list" for operating...the baseline is the blood must be kept at a stable 7.35 pH, or we die (even an alteration of .5 can result in death).  When the GI tract, colon, liver, kidneys are overburdened & congested (unable to neutralize/expel poisonous waste) and the GI tract is unable to adequately assimilate the nutrients needed to fuel 'basic operation - then we've entered into this situation (which used to be something we learned in grade school science class): "No life form, no matter how big or small, can sustain life/health unless two conditions are present: 1) availability & assimilation of all required nutrients 2) ability to neutralize and/or expel it's own waste and other poisons."  When our body cannot  obtain/assimilate the basic 'nutrition' it requires to function properly and cannot expel or neutralize it's own/other waste & poisons, things start breaking down...and generally they start breaking down in the areas of our 'weakest genetic link' or the areas where we've abused our body. Healing the body in a truly natural, effective way (working with the body 'where it is' and not trying to force it to do things it's already proven it's incapable of doing) means ensuring it has the ability to meet all it's daily "top priorities" adequately (this ensures degradation will stop), and then providing it the support it needs for it to be able to start repairing the damage that's occured.  Our bodies are miraculous self-healing organisms ("organism" being the key word*)...fully programmed with 'healing schematics' SO advanced that "science" still cannot comprehend even the most basic concepts of how all the systems work together (sheesh, "science" still cannot even fully define all the individual actions of the liver and kidneys; "science" is almost totally in the dark about the functioning of the brain and even more in the dark about "energy"). 

Our body IS a complete organism*...each and every organ, system, cell, microorganism and somatid is symbiotically dependent upon every other system/cell.  As the caretaker of this organism (living on a poisoned planet that does not provide many of the most basic of our requirements, while plowing us with massive amounts of poisons & unnatural electric frequencies), we must provide our organism with regular maintenance; the highest quality & caliber of 'nutrition' we can; and all the supporting therapies needed to ensure our body's basic needs can be met (so it's advanced healing schematics can work).   Bottom line - whether onecrazyday is dealing with hard/mineral deposits (which IS possible) or whether she's dealing with loss of cartilage, the reason there's a "symptom" is NOT just because of her "knee"...it's because of a combination of issues, resulting in her body no longer having the ability to stop the deposits from forming or degradation from occuring.  Once those issues are resolved, then the rebuilding process can occur. 

The most popular attempt is of course glucosamine and chondroitin supplements which I took for several years without any success and now believe that it is a complete scam.  The doctor who "found" this solution wasn't even in the field of bone/knee/joint medicine.  Anything that 'treats the symptom' but not the entire body and all it's systems involved in the creation of the symptom...is a complete scam. 

Joint problems can take years to develop as in my case.  One can think that they've fixed the condition but they will come back to haunt them. Or one can cleanse, restore and nourish the body, repair the damage, and the only thing they'll have 'haunting them' is vibrant health (along with some maintenance work and relearning how to eat & live naturally on an unnatural planet).  As I mentioned earlier my medical support had me take 12 aspirin at a time, twice a day, and that worked wonders - for a while but was obviously not a permanent fix. Any 'medical support' that had you taking 12 aspirin at a time did nothing but relieve pain and cause more problems....that's not just a scam, that's quackery and 'doing harm' (first physician, do NO harm).

The placebo effect (actually the human spirit) has been found to work as high as 80% of the time over and above drugs and medical treatment in some cases and on average about 35% of the time always.  "Science" is now trying to harness that power too but in reality it is up to each individual to do that for themselves.

We are living in a world of highly irrational fear and when people can erase these unnatural fears and live life with the joy and happiness that god intended and which is within everyone of us, many illnesses will disappear.   Highly irrational fear (in this case) equals believing and telling others they cannot possibly heal themselves naturally; and instead, must have their body sliced into; ligaments, tendons and even bones severed and carved out; and pieces of metal put into their body to replace their natural flesh in order to be pain/symptom free.   That does NOT help anyone find the joy & happiness (and freedom & power) that God/Nature intended and that IS within us all.  

I'm truly sorry you've been bamboozled into believing the untruths you seem to truly believe (and I am glad that your carvings turned out to be a decent substitute for true healing in your case, rather than a lifetime of complications, more carvings and "drug therapy").  But this forum is not the place to advise, suggest or insist that Natural Healing doesn't work and that the only thing that will work is putting one's precious body into the hands of the first leading cause of death - modern medicine.  As above, this is a private support forum supporting the methodologies & concepts of Dr. Schulze/Christopher, et al  (something I realize you may not have known).  So, please do feel welcome to offer support of these methodologies & concepts, or to ask questions that will help you learn more; but please don't continue posting in the non-supportive way you've been posting in this thread so far.  Thank you in advance for understanding and respecting that. :)

Blessings,
