NMT Success: Rapid Resolution of Severe Headache

March 16th, 2011 | Posted by Fred Bloem, MD in Holistic Medicine | NeuroModulation Technique - (Comments Off on NMT Success: Rapid Resolution of Severe Headache)

Yesterday afternoon I treated a patient who had been complaining of a severe headache with NeuroModulation Technique (NMT). Today she sent me the following testimonial:

“I’m a 59 year old woman, and I had a severe headache that had lasted for 5 days.  I was in my 6th day of pain.  The pain was behind my eyes and around to the back of my head but I did not have other symptoms of a sinus headache.  At one point, after laying back with a sinus pack on my head, my vision became blurry for over 5 minutes.  Very scary.  Dr. Bloem did a remote NMT treatment.  Within 2 hours I was able to go to sleep and awoke in the morning without a headache.  It is now evening and the headache reappeared for about 10 minutes at one point but has not recurred since.  Thank you Dr. Bloem.”

This patient was treated with the NMT Attunement Energetics Pathway, one of many NMT pathways that can help patients with a wide range of physical, psychological, and emotional complaints. If a patient’s chief complaint is a severe headache, most physicians would recommend a pain killer such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen, a narcotic analgesic, or a migraine medication. They may also recommend an antibiotic if they suspect that the patient may have a sinus infection. The downsides of prescribing such pharmaceuticals are that they may cause side effects and that there is the potential for developing tolerance and dependency.

I am grateful that with NeuroModulation Technique I have a safer method of helping my patients find relief from a wide variety of health problems. While I recognize that in some cases of severe headache urgent surgical or pharmaceutical therapy may be appropriate, I submit that in the majority of cases NMT is an appropriate first line of treatment when patients present with a headache.

NMT Success: Flu, Headache, and Abdominal Pain

May 18th, 2010 | Posted by Fred Bloem, MD in NeuroModulation Technique - (Comments Off on NMT Success: Flu, Headache, and Abdominal Pain)

Here are two testimonials from a patient who received remote NeuroModulation Technique (NMT) treatment from me on two separate occasions. NMT is a cutting-edge method of energy healing which can be done in the office or remotely for patients who live far away or who for other reasons are unable to come to the office.  NMT is a very powerful healing method and patients often experience rapid improvements in their health status.

“I am a 58 year old female with multiple medical problems.  I became ill with the flu this last flu season.  I had a horrible headache and generally just felt really sick.  Dr. Bloem did an NMT treatment, remotely with me on the phone.  It was very relaxing and when the treatment was over, my headache had eased considerable and I went on to sleep for a couple of hours.  My flu bout seemed to be shorter than anyone else in the household.”

“While I was on a strict diet, my abdomen became very bloated.  I was unable to expel any gas at all and I had a sharp pain in the left upper part of my abdomen.  Dr. Bloem did an NMT treatment remotely, over the phone.  Within 2 hours of the treatment, things started to move, I was able to expel gas and soon had a movement which relieved the pain almost entirely.  The pain in my abdomen continued to decrease to a soreness then went away altogether within 2 days.”

NMT Success: Significant Relief of Headache

January 14th, 2010 | Posted by Fred Bloem, MD in NeuroModulation Technique - (0 Comments)

This morning a patient presented with an acute onset of a splitting headache, vomiting and diarrhea, muscle aches, restlessness and shakiness. The patient asked for a NeuroModulation Technique session. By the time she contacted me the vomiting had already stopped.

I performed the session using the advanced NMT Treeview software which greatly facilitates the delivery of the NMT pathways.

After I had performed the Consciousness Self Universe Pathway for the patient she reported that the headache which initially had an intensity of 8 on a scale of 10 had subsided to 5 on a scale of 10. Throughout the 30-minute NMT session she felt very relaxed.

The patient slept throughout the remainder of the day and when she woke up in the afternoon the headache had subsided even more and she was much more comfortable. The muscle were much better too. She felt ready to go back to work the next day.

NMT Success: Affective States Pathway for Depression and History of Abuse

December 15th, 2009 | Posted by Fred Bloem, MD in NeuroModulation Technique - (0 Comments)

Over the years NeuroModulation Technique (NMT), a cutting edge method of energy medicine, has become an important part of my practice. This 56 year old patient had previously started bioidentical hormone replacement therapy and nutritional therapies in my office. After having had a series of sessions of NeuroEmotional Technique (NET) with a different practitioner, she decided to start NeuroModulation Technique. Her chief complaints were severe anxiety and depression, chronic fatigue, and trauma related to parental neglect, sexual molestation, and abusive experiences at school. Here are excerpts from an e-mail that she wrote to me after two NMT sessions in which we used the Affective States Pathway. This is one of the newest NMT protocols which has been shown to help patients with both emotional and physical complaints.

“Yes, I’m feeling much better. The NMT is a lasting thing and I need to come back for additional treatments. […]

Thank you so much for your continued help!! You really pulled me out of a very bad spot through NMT. I don’t think I will ever be able to thank you enough! It’s like I fell into a deep black hole and God used you to pull me out of it (I have a ways to go, but wow, what a difference).”

NMT Success Story: Miraculous Recovery From Narcolepsy

September 30th, 2009 | Posted by Fred Bloem, MD in NeuroModulation Technique - (0 Comments)

Here is a wonderful testimonial from Vicky Radel who is an NMT Practitioner who uses the NMT Treeview system. NMT Treeview is a software program that I also use in my office. It makes the delivery of NMT a lot easier and much more powerful.

From: Vicky Radel

Dear NMT practitioners,

A note of encouragement. Below is a testimonial written by the mother of a patient of mine. The first treatment (in May) was focused on narcolepsy as well as dyslexia, light sensitivity and anxiety. I use Treeview. OHI had to do with PATSI, pathways were PEP, and SMP focused on narcolepsy. He received an MP3 of the treatment . I have struggled with my confidence in using SMP (mother of all pathways as it is sometimes called) So I was actually quite surprised by the amazing results from this visit.
I feel another factor was the young mans attitude. He said to me “I knew my mother would find something to heal this” and he did not engage in the thought of it being incurable.
Since then we have done an additional 4 treatments always using OHI adjustments as well as the following pathways; ISIP(2),CSP(2),SSRP,NRRARP,ASNP(2), ASTP,TP,AP(2),CSUP,TTP,and TRP I am currently treating him by phone monthly . He is adjusting well to college and reports doing “great”.
the following is a letter from his mother.

NMT cured our son’s narcolepsy

NMT caused a miraculous recovery from narcolepsy for our 18-year-old son four months ago, amazingly after only one treatment. Here is our story: Our son, whom I’ll call Dan, then 18, was often “too sleepy to drive” and was beginning to fall asleep in class and when he sat in an easy chair to read. He had a difficult time waking up in the morning (an understatement) and seemed tired much of the time. We chalked all this up to typical teenage sleep habits until an EEG at an academic testing center was abnormal and a sleep study was recommended.
In November 2008, when Dan was 18, he had a comprehensive sleep study that included an overnight sleep center stay and four naps the following day. The neurologist said the “definitive” diagnosis was narcolepsy, which is “incurable” and Dan would need to take medication to stay awake during the day. He said medication to cause deep sleep is sometimes required, he hesitates to give that drug to teens. Dan had abnormal sleep cycles during the night and had fallen into REM sleep immediately during the naps at the lab, which clinched the diagnosis.
On the way home from the neurologist, I told Dan not to believe anything the doctor said about “having this the rest of your life” because we would find something that cured or helped narcolepsy in alternative medicine or somewhere. As a result of my response, Dan did not even look narcolepsy up on the internet, which I thought was a little strange for a very bright, inquisitive teen.
Dan began taking the drug Provigil, which helped with the daytime sleepiness and did not seem to have side effects, but he still did not get quality sleep at night and waking up took great effort. Meanwhile I searched the internet for days and and found a rather odd YouTube video by a young man who claimed that NMT plus a gluten-free diet cured his narcolepsy. When I looked up NMT and then searched for a practitioner in the Minneapolis, Minn., area, I found Vicky Radel, who also had training in Bioset (which had cured some of my allergies) and Spring Forest Qigong (which I practice). I decided to be the guinea pig and took one treatment a month from Vicky for three or four months with good results before having my son to take his first treatment in mid-May 2009.
Four days after the first treatment, Dan announced that he felt good when he got out of bed and did not think he needed to take his Provigil. I suggested he take a half dose a day to make sure he made it through final exams that next week. He has not taken any medication in the four months since, sleeps well and feels better than he has in many months. He is now 19, has been a college student at a rigorous private college for a month and has no sleep issues. He continues to take an NMT treatment each month and believes NMT is helping him no longer crave sweets or feel addicted to computer-related activities. And he believes his narcolepsy is gone forever.
Only recently did Dan look at the YouTube video that caused me to try NMT. He wondered why such an odd video even caused me to check out NMT. But I was leaving no stone unturned to find a cure.  My husband, son and I expected NMT to help but we were shocked that Dan seemed to be cured after only one treatment. We’d like to say thanks to the NMT founder, researchers, Vicky and the young man who put his story on YouTube. (Note: Stanford University discovered this past year that narcolepsy is an autoimmune illness, which does not surprise us.)

NMT Autism Study – Significant Improvement After 6 weeks of NMT

July 19th, 2009 | Posted by Fred Bloem, MD in Testimonials | Vaccinations - (0 Comments)

December 2008

This is the history of a 10 year old boy with a diagnosis of autism who showed remarkable improvement over the course of six weeks of treatment with NeuroModulation Technique.

The boy was the second oldest of three children who lived with his mother and two other siblings.

He was healthy at birth and developed normally. He received all childhood immunizations and at age four the following changes manifested: drooling, tantrums, loss of the ability to repeat words, compromise of expressive and receptive communication abilities, and clumsiness and reduced coordination. There were problems with motor skills that especially affected his hands and he exhibited clumsiness when walking.

By age seven he developed obesity because of various psychotropic medications that physicians had prescribed. By the time the patient presented for NMT treatment all medications had been discontinued.

The patient’s mother reported the following improvements since the start of NMT treatment.

About three to four weeks after the start of NMT treatment the mother had a meeting with one of her son’s teachers. The teacher reported that about three weeks prior to the meeting she noticed that the boy had become more mature and that he answered questions in class properly. At that time the mother did not think that it was because of the NMT treatment, but later on she made the connection when she realized that the NMT treatment had started three to four weeks previously. The mother also stated that she had not told the teacher that her son was receiving NMT treatment. So the teacher shared her observations spontaneously.

The boy has continued to improve and to do very well in school. In the past couple of months all his spelling tests have been 100% even though they are more advanced and challenging now. He is also doing better in mathematics. He is still below grade level for his age but improving.

Overall, he makes more sense when he talks. Now he can watch a movie or read a book and talk about it clearly. Before the NMT treatment he did not make much sense when he tried to talk about a book or movie.

Before NMT treatment he was very scared of the dark but that is much better now.

Also, it used to be impossible for him to be at home without his mother because he would cry and yell, but now he is fine when his mother is not there.

When his father came to pick him up once a week for visits he used to refuse to go with him. However, since the NMT treatment he has been willing to go with his father.

His relationship with his younger sister has changed also. He used to prefer to be by himself and to not be bothered. Now he and his sister are spending more time together. They do fight from time to time, but now it is not because he wants to be left alone but instead it is because they are competing with each other.

When he first came to my office he played a lot with strips of plastic from plastic bags. He used to tie the strips together into a ball and play with it constantly. He exhibits this behavior much less now.

He used to laugh at inappropriate times and this has improved since NMT treatment.

His eating is more varied now. He is willing to try all kinds of food now.

Finally, the boy’s psychologist recently discharged him from treatment because she felt that he had met all treatment goals.

Needless to say, the boy’s mother was very pleased that the NMT treatment resulted in such an improvement in her son’s autism.

NMT Treatment for Adults with Autism Diagnosis

July 8th, 2009 | Posted by Fred Bloem, MD in NeuroModulation Technique - (0 Comments)

From the NMT Communication Forum:

I think potentially adults with autism could transform as rapidly as children with autism, but you would likely have a similar spectrum of slow responders to faster responders to NMT due to the factors that let to the autism symptoms.

I have used NMT with a 37 year-old high functioning Asperger’s patient with good results.  One issue that can arise in working with children and adults with autism is the extent that they may need skills training (whether motor, sensory integration, social, etc.) after the conditions which have led to the autism symptoms have been cleared or resolved.

For example, let’s say an adult who was able to come off the autism spectrum as a result of NMT treatments and had never driven a car, suddenly “got it” about how to operate a car.  He would still need much practice behind the wheel before he could coordinate all the skills and actions required to actually drive one, and his body would need to learn the motor memory and sequential and concurrent awareness demands of driving.

Remember that there is no such thing as autism, it’s just a label for a group of symptoms.

Dr. Bob Weiner is the Study Chair for the NeuroModulation Technique Autism Study which is being prepared for publication at the time of this writing. Children (ages 5-10) who participated in the NMT autism study in which Dr. Bloem participated demonstrated statistically significant improvement in all areas of functioning as measured by the Autism Treatment Evaluation Checklist (ATEC), the Aberrant Behavior Checklist (ABC) and the Pervasive Developmental Disorder Behavior Inventory (PDDBI). Global function improved – maladaptive behaviors decreased and adaptive behaviors increased. These results occurred in just 12 sessions of NMT, twice a week for 6 weeks.

NMT Success Story: Relief of Migraine Headaches in Nine Year Old Boy

May 24th, 2009 | Posted by Fred Bloem, MD in NeuroModulation Technique - (0 Comments)

Here is an impressive testimonial that the mother of a patient sent to Dr. John Kane, DC, a NeuroModulation Technique practitioner in Bloomfield, New Jersey.

“To see your 9 year old suffering from migraines is horrible, but to see it since the age of 2 was unbearable.  My son had food allergies along with seasonal allergies causing these “headaches”, and he was taking daily medication (a total of 5 doses a day) to keep this at bay.  Even with the daily meds, if he ingested too much dairy/soy he would begin to have bowel problems.  At age 7 he went through a series of GI, MRI, CAT Scan and even Neuro-Ophthalmology tests.  I was told that there was no cure for his issues, only a lifelong regimen of pills.  For 2 years I accepted this, until the allergies in his eyes became so severe that he could not hold a conversation without his eyes rolling into his head and his entire head jerking.  The Ophthalmologist told me I had reached the last step in eye drops which was steroids.  My son would now have to go visit the doctor 2 times a week to check his eye pressure from these drops and have glaucoma screening monthly.  I did not like this option for my son and started asking everyone I knew about alternatives.

I then learned about NMT.  I contacted Dr. Kane and set up an appointment.
By his 3rd visit, my sons allergies went away along with the eye rolling and head jerking.  Since undergoing a full course of NMT with Dr. Kane my son is a healthy 9 year old who can eat at friends houses without me providing any “special” food, he can go to school without having an “attack” in the bathroom and he can enjoy himself in every situation.  He is no longer embarrassed that he could not control his head or eyes.  He can be a “normal” 9 year old.  I often worried about the future damage the medications would have on my son, and I do still worry because he was on them for so long;  however, now he is taking NOTHING!  No eye drops, no antihistamines, no decongestants, no digestive pills and no inhalers-NOTHING.  Thanks to Dr. Kane and NMT for giving my son what he has always deserved- a normal and drug free childhood. ”
