My friend’s husband is 53 and has been living with Parkinsons for 12 years. The medicine does not seem to work anymore. He now shakes the whole day where as before it was only once the medicine wore of. Is There Any Hope After the Medicines Stop Working?
Is there any treatment that he can go for that will help him to live a normal life again?
Have you had any feedback on stem cell replacement therapy?

Response: Is There Any Hope After the Medicines Stop Working
Yes indeed. There are many, many therapeutic possibilities that your friend’s husband could find that would be helpful now that the medicines are have stopped working.
Most people are familiar with the approach used in the specialty of western medicine. Help offered by prescription medicines has been useful to your friend’s husband for over a decade, but is now no longer working for him. He can celebrate the many years of relief he obtained from the medicines he has taken thanks to western medicine. Some people discover that the prescription medicines are only helpful for 2-3 years at best.
Now what? The good news is that the treatments offered by western medicine in the form of medicines and surgeries are only one among dozens of other treatment options and approaches. Recovery really hinges on broadening the perspective on recovery options and being willing to consider other treatment modalities.
There are a multitude of therapies – some thousands of years old – that people with Parkinsons report offer relief from their symptoms. Most are natural, safe and offer the potential for improvement in health on some level. I have documented dozens of therapies in Road to Recovery that help people recover.
There is a wide range of choices to consider from sound therapy to vibration therapy to herbal remedies to quantum healing to energy healing to biofeedback to Emotional Freedom Technique to photobiomodulation to focused ultrasound … The list goes on and on.
Western medicine has been in existence for about 100 years. Many of the other specialties that offer profound relief to persons with Parkinson’s have been around for thousands of years and and have proven true to the test of time.
Success with recovery requires that the cause (or causes) of symptoms be identified and therapies adopted that address the cause. I have documented 11 stories of recovery in Pioneers of Recovery. Each person had a successful recovery but went about it with very different therapies and approaches. In short, each situation is unique and requires an individualized approach.
