Homœopathic Links 2012; 25(1): 50-55 | DOI: 10.1055/s-0031-1298204
51 patients have been triaged for acute whiplash injury and randomized to receive conventional or nonconventional therapy. The conventional therapy group A (n = 27) received diclofenac + tinazidine for 15 days. The complementary therapy group B (n = 24) received Homeopathic Remedies Hypericum perforatum and Ribes nigrum. A score was developed to evaluate the therapeutic control of pain and neurologic symptoms.
RESULTS:
Statistical analysis revealed a significant improvement of post-acute outcome in the B-group patients and a significant increase of adverse effects in the A-group, while no differences were observed between the two groups in terms of the EMG evaluation, use of additional therapies, and incidence of LWS. It was concluded that nonconventional therapies offer a valid aid in treating whiplash injury, even in the presence of neurologic symptoms.
Frank has worked extensively in the mental health field as a homeopath, biofeedback and neurofeedback specialist. He facilitates a deep connection to well-being integrating unresolved trauma and through his practice supports individuals in moving from contraction to expansion, from limitation to freedom.
Soon after Frank began studying Homeopathy he contracted Lymes Disease. Having no health insurance at the time became a blessing because he very quickly learned to test and rely on homeopathy as the effective alternative medical practice it is. After becoming symptom free, Frank practiced Biofeedback and Neurofeedback therapy for 5+ years at the The Gedroic Medical Institute in Morristown, NJ and the Psychiatry Center in Clifton, NJ where he treated individuals suffering from depression, anxiety, psychological disorders, Lymes disease, and various physical conditions like IBS, Asthma, etc.
Now practicing in Bloomfield, NJ he uses homeopathic medicine to resolve recurring ailments and long-standing conditions by addressing the underlying root cause of unwellness that manifests as a seemingly unrelated complex of mental, emotional, or physical symptoms. In his biofeedback & reiki practice he supports individuals in developing the skills to mindfully manage stress, nourish the self and break unconscious patterns.
