Patient discussion about Life-form.

Q. I'm looking for natural/organic ways to deal with carpal tunnel syndrome. My Boss has Carpal Tunnel syndrome. I'm looking for some natural remedies to help her ease the pain.

A. "Acupuncture and chiropractic care have benefited some patients but their effectiveness remains unproved. An exception is yoga, which has been shown to reduce pain and improve grip strength among patients with carpal tunnel syndrome."

a quote from the "National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke" website...

Q. Can a Chiropractor tell if your organs are shutting down?

A. She told me that because my spine is out of line so much, that it's causing my organs to shut down. I have been having bladder problems. I really think she is just trying to scare me.

Q. My child's hyperactivity spoils my Sunday. I want to know of any tips to make him more organized. My ADHD child is 7 years old. We are trying to manage is hyperactivity and its good that he has reduced in his symptoms. He was diagnosed at the age of four. Those days he was very hyperactive and jumping and running was very common. Though still talks very quickly and it’s so much quick that sometimes I cannot understand that what he says but my wife can understand what he wants to say and she follows his speed as well. But his hyperactivity spoils my Sunday. I want to know of any tips to make him more organized. Can someone give one?

A. It is good that his hyperactivity is improving. I can say that you can make a plan for Sunday and any holiday. Make such a plan which you can tell to him at early morning and can fulfill at evening. This plan will keep him waiting for the day and you can see some changes in his hyper to go low.
