Visit to the Naturopath

Went to the naturopath just 20min away from us. Her name is Patricia Rennie and we got her name from another parent of a BI child. She has a pleasant, humble personality and it's not easy to like her. Compared to Dr. Gannage, she is like heaven to hell. This is our second visit after 2 months of having some of the supplements she recommended. Jason's elimination pattern during the night seems to be changing (wake up only once to pee, instead of twice) and his bowel movement seems to be more self-reliant. Our last time using the suppository was April 22, so let's keep our fingers crossed.
She then did what's called Applied Kinesiology muscle testing with me being the surrogate tester. She had me touch Jason's shoulder with one hand, then lift up the other arm horizontally. The purpose of the test is to see which of Jason's organs are weak. The same test was then performed to test which food/products/supplements are good for him, and which should be avoided. The way she interpreted how my arm responded, however, was a little confusing. From my past experience, if my arm went weak, the product tested was supposed to create negative impact for the patient. For many times, my arm didn't really fall down all the way, and sometimes they did stay strong. She didn't interpret each response to me in details but told me it's not that straight forward...cuz it depends on whether the product is just a food for consumption, or something that's supposed to 'treat'. In that case, we may be looking for a 'neutral' response. Obviously, the visit will not include a lecture on Applied Kinesiology so I decided to read more about it. This book maybe a good start.



I know this muscle testing thing was considered a quackery but hey, same with Qigong and ABR, lack of understanding leads to ignorant opposition. Besides, she is not 'healing' thru muscle testing...she is just using it as a diagnostic tool. She was of the opinion that Jason should avoid gluten, cow dairy, almonds, peanuts, but we may be easy on soy and even eggs (what? eggs?) Wai was in total disbelief because the IgG test with Dr. Gannage showed clearly that eggs are allergens. She also prescribed several homeopathic remedies for detox, and Methylcobalamin (MB12) at my request, but I need to check out with Dr. Oswal in case it has any contraindication with g-therapy. http://www.g-therapy.org/
I am going to keep a positive mind and see what further changes we will see in Jason.
