Conditions - Endocrine

Endocrinology…the study of the endocrine system can be complicated. This is because all of the organs of the endocrine system are closely linked. Changes in one part of the endocrine system can and does have effects on all parts of the system.
Over the years, there has been dramatic improvement in the treatment of diabetes. Unfortunately, in other endocrine organs, like the thyroid and adrenal glands, clinical application of new research has been slow to gain acceptance…as a result, many patients may be inaccurately diagnosed, prescribed wrong medications and suffer for years without relief - fatigue, depression, menopausal symptoms, weight gain, etc.
There are reasonable options and integrative medicine physicians, like Dr. Massey are leading the way. Dr. Massey does not treat all endocrine issues. However, thyroid and adrenal related conditions are surprising common and, for most, easily treated. Patients can regain their lives.

After experiencing sciatic pain on the left side, I had surgery to solve the problem. Shortly thereafter, I began to have sciatic pain down the other side. I assumed that surgery was necessary again. After beginning the (ALT-MED) program and doing the exercises for a couple of months, the pain was gone. I have been pain free for over six months.
