Are you interested in exploring alternative treatments for a disease, for yourself or a loved one? While the traditional Western medical community is extremely gifted in understanding the anatomy of diseases, they are light-years away from understanding how to heal from them without the use of drugs, chemotherapy, and other invasive methods.

We are lucky to live in a time when so much information about alternative treatments is available.

While the medical community has still not found a cure, I feel that I have healed myself completely. They do not know what causes NMO, but I have my own personal beliefs about NMO. Being an autoimmune-related disease, it may have resulted from life-long stress and negative belief patterns.

Throughout the past year, I've consulted with several practitioners. Of the most helpful I've found classical homeopathy and cranio-sacral treatments. Healing emotional wounds through deep introspection, forgiveness, and positive affirmations was key in my healing process. I found it extremely important to add Omega 3 into my diet, particularly from sources of salmon, Nile perch, and sardines. Consulting with a naturopath assisted me in making these dietary changes.

If you know someone with NMO, don't give up hope.
