Dr. Brimhall's Six Steps to Wellness Protocols™


August 22, 2022 Puzzle Piece

Almost daily, I am asked can you help many different conditions, such as headaches, migraines, sciatica, MS, RSD/Compartment Syndrome, back pain, neck pain, depression, thyroid problems, anxiety, panic attacks, exhaustion and many other symptomatic expressions?
 
My question to myself and to the patient are, what is the cause of these symptoms?  Sometimes the patient states they think it could be severe stress, a chronic sinus infection, an accident they had, bad eating or no exercise habits, etc.  Yet sometimes, they have no idea of the many potential triggers and mediators of their pains and problems.
 
That is HOW and WHY the Six Interferences and the Six Steps to Wellness developed.  I often state I am a DC, which means not only a Doctor of Chiropractic but also and especially a Doctor of Cause
We evaluate which of the 6 interferences the person has and which of the corrections are needed to remove the causes and restore normal function.
 
Therein lies the MIRACLES.  We have often stated to the doctors we teach, this concept is “mentoring in miracles”.  The universe, the body and its functions are all miraculous.  When the causes of dysfunction are identified and removed, the body can many times manifest healing, which appears as miracles.
 
If the practitioner does not identify the causes of dysfunction and assist the body in correcting them, how can we expect consistent positive results, much less miracles to take place?
 
Below is a list of the steps and potential corrections.  With Dr Harris’s genius, we also have the genetic testing and treatment protocols. 
 
Those that have available other licenses, or work with those that do, can expand treatment protocols by adding Biological Allographs to increase the bodies own stem cells, scar releases, PRP, Cutaneous Nervous System injections etc.
 
We have developed and utilized these 6 Steps in my 51 years of practice and find them indispensable in achieving maximum results.  Doug Grant of OHS, Marc Harris MD, Brett Brimhall, DC and I teach these protocols in seminars, webinars, recordings etc.
 
Please call my office for more information at 480-964-5198 and/or OHS (Optimal Health Systems) at 1-800-890-4547.  We are here to serve!
 

 

Picture1STRUCTURE

Step 1: Re-establish Structural Integrity, “The Foundation of Health”.

Nerve and Structural interference happen when nerves or tissue are interfered with causing the life energy, which flows through them, to be blocked. It can be produced through trauma such as an accident or fall, fractures, surgery, emotional stress, etc.

If our tissues, muscles, or fascial movements are restricted it can cause interference with the electrical impulses moving through them. Pain and disease are not the initial cause but are key indicators of nerve interference.

Re-establishing structural integrity is the foundation of health. 80% of all conditions improve when the structure of the body is properly re-established to allow a free flow of vital energy.

Picture2ELECTRICAL POLLUTION

Step 2: Rebalance Electromagnetics

We live in an ocean of electromagnetism. Our bodies have their own electromagnetic field much like a magnet has north and south polarities. Every cell has north and south polarity that affects all functions of the cell. Our fields should be synchronized with the natural rhythms of the earth, moon, and sun etc.

When electromagnetic pollution from power lines, appliances, computers and TVs, microwave communications devices, and even the electric clock by the bed begins to accumulate, our entire system becomes stressed to the point of exhaustion. Our vision declines, our cells no longer know how to build and repair the body properly, and illness can set in.

Picture3NUTRITION

Step 3: Rebalance Nutrition
  1. Reset Adrenals & the General Adaptive Syndrome (GAS)
  2. Replenish Nutrition for Organs, Glands or Systems Weakness.
  3. Reduce Infective Organisms in the Body.
  4. Replace Enzymes and/or HCL to Aid Digestion, Assimilation and Elimination.
  5. Restore Proper Bowl Flora to Optimize Colon Function
Surveys show that 20% of the US population never eats vegetables, and 40% rarely consumes fruit or fruit juices. 80% of the population never consumes whole grains or high-fiber foods. All forms of refined sugar lower the immune system's function and interferes with the ability of the white blood cells to destroy unfriendly bacteria.

The standard American diet, which contains food grown on depleted soils, has left Americans deficient in many nutrients important to health. In 1936, U.S. Senate Document 264 noted that 95% of Americans are deficient in one or more major minerals and many trace minerals, which have been proven to be necessary for bone mineralization. Of course, we are much worse at this time.

Picture4ALLERGIES AND SENSITIVITIES

Step 4: Reprogram the body for any Allergy or Sensitivity

Conventional estimates suggest that 35 million people in the US suffer from allergies of different kinds. As we remove the interferences to your health, reset your adrenal glands, and correct your nutrition and digestion we must correct allergies and sensitivities We also us a technique referred to as ASERT or use the ASA for neutralization to help reduce triggering your immune system back into interference. This is a very significant stage of healing and cannot be ignored.

Listed here are three causes of allergies:
  1. A substance in the environment such as dust, mold, pollen, etc.
  2. Foods or food additives such as corn, milk, soy, etc.
  3. Metabolic Byproducts (bodily fluids and tissues).
Allergic reactions can mimic a wide range of diseases and disorders and lead to confused immune system responses referred to as molecular mimicry and can kill off our own healthy cells. Infective organisms and drugs such as NSAIDS are linked to leaky gut syndrome, or excessive permeability of the GI tract. These leaky walls in the digestive tract allow incomplete digested food particles into the blood stream. Food particles in the digestive tract are normal, but food particles in the blood stream are reacted to as foreign invaders and can set up autoimmune reactions.

Picture5EMOTIONS AND STRESS

Step 5: Re-evaluate Emotional Patterns & Remove Limiting Belief Systems

Emotion has been shown by the latest research to be a complex reaction between the body and mind. These reactions result in chemical changes in the brain and cells, which produces energy made of electrical and magnetic nerve signals. These energies or emotions literally have a frequency, which radiates outward from our energy field. These signals or blocks may be referred to as energy cysts or energy blocks.


The mind is a field of energy made up of the brain, the body, and the entire energy field. These chemical and energy patterns are stored in the mind-body field, and this is called emotional memory. Patterns of thought and behavior are caused by one's perception. Perceptions and beliefs are represented by the stored configurations of memory held in an electromagnetic field we call our mind.

Past experiences and perceptions of them control reflex emotional responses. These emotional reflexes can then be re-played and create interferences to normal functions in life and limit one's ability to perceive situations properly.

Picture6TOXICITY

Step 6: Remove Heavy Metals and Other Toxins from the Body

Toxic metals are widely used in industry, food processing, and agriculture and find their way into our air, food, and water. Exposures to these toxins are not blatantly obvious to us and are hard to pinpoint as a cause for illness. Some toxins are naturally occurring chemicals that our body has had a hard time breaking down. When accumulated in our cells these toxins can cause mutation or death. These can be harmless in very small quantities but deadly in large amounts.
 
Researchers and experts in environmental medicine tell us that it is not a question of if our bodies are burdened with toxic overload but “how bad is it.” Common problems of toxicity include headaches, fatigue, general joint and muscle pain, skin disorders like rashes and eczema, and asthma and allergies. Many toxins are neurotoxins like monosodium glutamate and mercury and affect our brain functions such as memory, quick thinking, and moods...

Immunity and the Microbiome, A Real Partnership

 
Considering immunity and the microbiome, science demonstrates the microbiota promotes and supports all aspects of the immune system and overall health. Of course, the immune system must be optimal to protect the healthy bacteria of the entire body. There are healthy bacteria in the nasal cavities, mouth, on the skin and of course in the GI tract, etc.

immunity


The microbiota of the entire body plays a fundamental, comprehensive, and intricate role in the immune system. In return, the host immune system protects and promotes this symbiotic relationship with the microbiota. In health and wellness, we must support the good bacteria and use natural immune support instead of killing of the good with the bad bacteria when possible.
 
The body must be able to tell the difference of good and bad bacteria. This requires a constant sensing of the microbiome. There are feedback loops between innate/natural and adaptive forces. There is constant evaluation of the immune system/microbiome and its mirids of components by these natural and adaptive counterparts. Maintenance of this dialogue requires total body communication and balancing when and where necessary. Therefore, the “Six Steps to Wellness” is a major asset in evaluation and treatment.
The Six Steps evaluates and detected dysfunctions and assists the body’s innate abilities to allow proper function in many cases. We evaluate and implement balance when and where necessary:
  1. Structure (spinal, extremity, craniosacral, visceral, circulation, meridians, lymphatics etc.)
  2. Electromagnetics both external and internal
  3. Emotions and Stress Reduction
  4. Nutritional evaluation and balancing (the microbiome included)
  5. Evaluation and treatment of allergies and sensitivities
  6. Detoxification in many forms
Immunity and the Microbiome Considerations
  1. Support of the epithelial cells by the microbiota.
  2. Tonic control of hematopoiesis and innate immunity by the microbiota.
  3. Non-classical lymphocyte interaction with the microbiota.
  4. Adaptive immunity to the microbiota.
  5. Balance of immune reactivity to the microbiota.
  6. Induction of regulatory responses by the microbiota.
  7. Nutritional support, exercise and emotional balancing are all important.
 
80% of the human immune system is in the gut. We need to understand and support the homeostatic mechanisms, utilizing the best probiotic strains as well as utilizing proper prebiotics to support their growth and resistance.
We must not kill off these important synergistic components to health and homeostasis.  Through the Six Steps we can support each aspect through evaluation and supportive therapy.
Consider Optimal Flora Plus for a whole spectrum microbiome nutraceutical.
For natural immune support consider Opti-Immune VRL and Essential Protect. These have been in the front line of treatment for many patients this past two years for incredible success.

Eat the Rainbow Diet and Supercharge Your Health

Ronald Grisanti D.C., D.A.B.C.O., DACBN, MS, CFMP

I read what Dr Grisanti prints as often as I run across it.  Enjoy his logic in the article.  JB, DC

One of the most important things you can do to improve your health is to eat a plant rich diet.

Plant rich means that the majority of your diet consists of plant foods while at the same time adding an adequate amount of quality protein and healthy fats (avocados, coconut and nuts).

Plant foods are absolutely necessary to improve your gut microbiome because they contain fiber and phytonutrients.

Phytonutrients or phytochemicals contain something quite powerful. These include polyphenols, resveratrol, flavonoids, isoflavonoids, terpenoids, and carotenoids.

Phytonutrients have been found to super-charge your immunity, reduce inflammation, help in preventing cancer and slow down the aging process.

Although it is well known that you obtain the bulk of your phytonutrients from vegetables and fruits, it may surprise you that eating grass fed beef also supplies adequate amounts of phytonutrients.

One way of imprinting it in your mind about the best phytonutrients is to think of eating the rainbow of fruits and vegetables.

Here are some foods to get you started:

rainbow_food 2


Red Foods:

red apples, beets, red cabbage, cherries, cranberries, pink grapefruit, red grapes, guava or guava juice, red peppers, pomegranates, red potatoes, radishes, raspberries, rhubarb, strawberries, tomatoes or tomato sauce, watermelon.

Orange or Deep Yellow Foods:

apricots, butternut squash, cantaloupe, carrots, corn, grapefruit, lemons, mangoes, nectarines, oranges, papaya, peaches, pears, persimmons, pineapple, pumpkin, sweet potatoes, yellow peppers, yellow squash.

Green Foods:

Artichokes, asparagus, avocados, green apples, green beans, broccoli, bok choy, chard, collard greens, cucumbers, grapes, green onion, honeydew melon, kale, kiwi, lettuce, lime, peas, peppers, spinach, zucchini.

Blue or Purple Foods:

Bilberries, blackberries, black currants, blueberries, eggplant, elderberries, kelp, prunes, purple grapes, raisins.

One caveat to consider is if you are battling diabetes, insulin resistance, belly fat, weight loss issues and gut dysbiosis, it is best to focus on low glycemic fruits (berries) and vegetables.

The optimal amount of vegetables is 12 to 18 servings per day with a 1/2 cup being one serving. Limit your low glycemic fruit (berries) to half cup per day or one piece of fruit per day.

Although it is best to purchase organic vegetables and fruits, I recommend you check out the Environmental Working Group site (ewg.org). This site provides the top 12 fruits and vegetables with the most pesticides. It is called the Dirty Dozen. It also lists the top 15 fruits and vegetables with the least amount of pesticides. It is called the Clean Fifteen.

18 Teens Hospitalized with heart problems after...

I am sending you these articles without comment for your review.

(This is from 2 separate but related Medpage articles.) 

This is a comment from Medpage on April 26, 2021 by Council Rudolph:

All Covid-19 vaccines are experimental treatments.  They all focus on the spike protein of the virus COVID-19 carries on its surface.  As humans, we carry spike proteins too.  A woman’s placenta when she’s pregnant, carries a bunch.  A man’s spike proteins are concentrated in our testicular tissues, especially those that produce sperm.  That’s why the Corona Virus vaccine of 2014 produced a profoundly effective infertility results, and why it was shut down by the FDA.
 
Some physicians say: “That’s also why the COVID-19 will also produce a profound infertility in men and in women, by producing antibodies to attack our own cell.  That’s called autoimmunity.  And now we are talking of giving this vaccine to our children.  Here we go again, 2+2=5.”

While Moderna's announcement of 100% efficacy with teens 12-17 years old sounds very positive, it was just announced in Connecticut that 18 teens have been hospitalized with heart problems following their Covid-19 vaccination, most within 4 days of their 2nd shot. The announcement did not indicate whose vaccines were used by these teens. If we shut down J&J vaccines after 7 adults in the entire country had blood clots, shouldn't we do the same when 18 youth in one of the smallest states in the U.S. had heart problems?

Moderna Boasts High Efficacy for COVID Vax in Teens

— Prevented symptomatic illness in TeenCOVE, manufacturer says

by Molly Walker, Deputy Managing Editor, MedP

age Today May 25, 2021

Moderna's COVID-19 vaccine showed 100% efficacy in adolescents ages 12 to 17, according to a press release from the manufacturer on Tuesday.

Starting 14 days after the second dose of vaccine, no cases of COVID-19 were reported in the vaccine group compared to control group.

"We are encouraged that mRNA-1273 was highly effective at preventing COVID-19 in adolescents. It is particularly exciting to see that the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine can prevent SARS-CoV-2 infection," said Moderna CEO Stéphane Bancel in a statement.

Examining safety, the vaccine had a consistent profile to that seen in adults, with injection site pain as the most common local adverse event, and headache, fatigue, myalgia, and chills as the most common systemic reactions following the second dose.

Moderna also said they plan to submit the data to a peer-reviewed publication.

Using Kinesiotape in Practice to Improve Outcomes
 
One of our next year's speakers, for what used to be called Homecoming and is now will be THE INTEGRATED HEALTH CONFERENCE, is Dr Dave Smaldone.  He was a trainer before he became a Chiropractor and is a master of helping those that have decreased their performance or been disabled from injury.  This week's article will be on Kinesiotaping and how he uses it in practice.


1

Kinesiotaping can be a wonderful adjunct to any chiropractic or physical treatment practice.  People "hear mixed reviews" from the scientific community on kinesiotaping. However, if you have even used it for one day in your practice, you know immediately it is a crucial piece of the puzzle. Throughout the year we will be posting studies, astounding case studies, taping protocols, and essentials you will need. This will allow you to implement an effective tool in your practice which your patients will love and will generate income.

2

Through the 17 years of kinesiotaping I have learned it can be used for a number of things on a patient:

1.  We use it to increase proprioception in the patient's joints when injured.
2.  Decrease swelling and edema post injury.
3.  Decrease pain at the location of origin.
4.  Increase and decrease ROM depending on the application.
5.  Provide decreased gravitation strain on limbs that are injured.

We can get these results while the patient is comfortable and effects that last for days.
We have dozens of patients who come in just to get taped before event, working out, and to help with post-surgical problems. Patients who have problems for 20+ years find themselves with partial or complete resolution of their pain and discomfort while taped.

For the 17 years I have been kinesiotaping I have tried dozens of different tapes.  Here I will just name a few: Kinesiotape, Spider Tape, KT tape and Rock Tape. I have found through taping thousands of people, Strength Tape is by far the best brand for me. One great advantage is the adhesive last 5 days under almost all conditions. The ion technology seems to make an enormous difference in outcomes.

Here is some information from their website: http://www.strengthtape.com/ on the ion technology in the tape: "Ion Health Technology is totally unique to StrengthTape. We infuse seven specific minerals into StrengthTape that emit ions. Ions are naturally occurring molecules that scientists refer to as "vitamins of the air". They can help you feel better and recover faster."

This is just the beginning of the articles Dr Smaldone will submit.  He will be teaching exactly how and when to tape at the Brimhall Integrative Health Conference January 23-26, 2015.  While taped, the nutrition used can promote healing at a better rate.  MaX Adrenal, MaX DeFlam etc. now become more effective.  You can also laser the area of injury right through the tape.  This too allows for greater stability while healing.

We look forward to seeing you at one of our seminars soon!
