Fat Locked Toxins

As a clinic that specialises in detoxification I have employed over the last 11 years the use of various methods to detoxify the body.  The addition to the clinic of Live Blood Screening as a tool to identify what needs to be addressed has been extremely helpful as well as the use of Colonic Irrigation, herbs and the new Far Infra Red Sauna has seen many people regain and maintain good health.  But the body is very clever at holding onto certain resistant toxins.

These being mainly pesticides, herbicides, paint solvents and toxic metals.  These toxins are locked into the fatty components of various tissues such as fat itself and neuronal (nerve) tissue.  Water soluble techniques will not allow the release of these toxins and if they do, they are usually reabsorbed on the way out.

Over the years I have noticed a definate increase in the amount of people with chemical sensitivity.  Chemicals accumulated in the body produce chemical sensitivity.  Now I know you might be thinking, I have not been exposed to any chemicals and eat organically so it’s not my problem?  Well it propbably is.  If you have known chemical exposure then the problem could be even worse. 

Just a bit of personal history to bring home this point. Nearly 18 years ago when I was breast feeding my first child, it seemed that he didn’t want to feed very easily, so being the analytical person that I am, first thing I thought of was what was wrong with the milk, and because I had been working in a pathology lab, I thought I’d get my milk tested.  Well I was blown away with the test results as I had above acceptable levels of PCB’s, Chlordane, Heptachlor, Dieldrin and the list goes on and yes this is a person with no known chemical exposure.

In Sherry Rogers book “Detoxify or Die” she states research of the American Environmental Protection Agency study of 400 Americans and showed 100%, yes every single person studied had stores of carcinogens such as Dioxins, PCB’s, Dichlorobenzene, Styrene and Xylene just to name a few and research from Turusov of the World Health Organisation states “There are probably no clean pesticide free animal, fish or human left on the face of earth”. 

Since that time nearly 18 years ago I have been on a mission to clean myself of these toxic chemicals and to a certain degree, with the tools I have available I have been able to achieve this, but I find that I am still sensitive to some chemicals, such as if a client comes into the clinic wearing a strong smelling perfume I get a headache or sneeze.

So more recently, I used specialised herbs and healing techniques to clear these resistant toxins.  This is a process of deep tissue cleansing which is used after the initial removal of more water soluble toxins through Colon Hydrotherapy, herbs, Far Infra Red Saunas and liver regeneration.

What Are Heavy Metals?  There is actually no precise definition for the term “heavy metal” in chemistry.  The term is really slang for polluting metal ions that are persistant and potentially toxic in the environment.  A more meaningful term is therefore metal toxicity and the most commonly encountered toxic metals are aluminium, cadmium, lead, mercury and nickel.  Toxic metals tend to accumulate in fatty tissues, if there are indications of  metal toxicity you may opt to add clearance of toxic metals to the deep tissue cleanse process. 

Aluminium; associated with: Alzheimer’s Disease, Parkinson’s Disease, Dementia, Psychosis, Osteomalacia, muscle pain, colic, gastroenteritis, liver dysfunction, microcytic hypochromic anaemia. 

Cadmium; ass. with: hair loss, (alopecia), dry scaly skin, yellow teeth, osteoporosis, kidney and liver damage, increased blood pressure, fatigue, emphysema. 

Lead; ass. with: behavioural abnormalities, cognitive impairment, uncoordination, depression, dizziness, fatigue, headaches, restlessness, anaemia, anorexia, constipation, muscle and bone pain, peripheral neuropathy. 

Mercury ass. with: depression, emotional instability, loss of vision or hearing, tremors, weak, tired, psychotic and thirst. 

Lead ass with:  skin allergies, fever, insomnia, headaches, nausea, vomitting, diarrhoea, short or rapid breathing, apathy. 

The above deep tissue cleanse and toxic metal clearance program marks the start of our new improved Ultimate Tissue Cleanse.

Email consultations with Sue Kira

Many people find that they don’t have the time or money to visit a Naturopath in clinic, especially if they feel it is only a minor disorder. Well, to help people be more time efficient and to support those finding it financially difficult with the current economic climate Sue has decided to avail herself in service to those that need this kind of help by offering Email consultations.
.
This service is available to all of Sue’s existing and new clients, so feel free to spread the good word. This special offer is available for only $10 per transaction.
.
A transaction is classed as the back and forward of information between the client and Sue until the information required has been reached and advice has then been made.
.
There is provision for other related questions to be made about concerns with the condition within a month of the initial advice given. After this time or if a lot of time is needed for the consultation then it is only fair for Sue to ask for another $10 as she sees the need.
.
Payment can be made by direct bank transfer (internet banking) or credit card (fees apply). You will be given bank details when you contact Sue. How quickly Sue responds to your Email will depend on her work load with clinic sessions, retreats and other emails that came before yours.
.
What to do:
.
1. Fill out a Free Health Appraisal Questionnaire on-line with Metagenics, using the pratitioner member number of 4504, this will then say your practitioner is Sue Kira.
.
2. Then Email Sue (with the email link not the form) the details of your health concern along with any history of condition and relevant family medical history details and listing any current medications including supplements and herbs as well as listing what you have tried for this condition so far. Also mention that you have filled out the questionnaire.
.
This service is only available to Australian and New Zealand residents. Apologies to overseas readers.
.
It must be noted that even though Sue has accreditation with all health funds for claims made for private consultations, no health fund will pay for on-line or Email consultations, so do not try to claim.

Australian residents only please
