Post-polio syndrome (PPS)

[Guest guest]

Hello Charlotte and Marilette

 

Thank you for this service that you are providing. I

am very pleased to be included. I am looking for the

protocol for post-polio syndrome. It is characterized

by muscle atrophy and weakness, fatigue, pain, plus

joint degeneration and deformities. It is also

characterized by respiratory muscle weakness, so there

is under ventilation, weak swallowlling, and a

tendency towards re-aspiration, which can lead to

pneumonia.

 

Two individuals in my life suffer greatly from this

syndrome, and I would like to be of service to them.

Thank you

Janis

Dear Janis,

 

Namaste.

 

Thank you for your email.

 

Medical Background:

 

Post-polio syndrome (PPS) is a condition that affects

polio survivors years after recovery from an initial

acute attack of the poliomyelitis virus. PPS is mainly

characterized by new weakening in muscles that were

previously affected by the polio infection and in

muscles that seemingly were unaffected. Symptoms

include slowly progressive muscle weakness,

unaccustomed fatigue (both generalized and muscular),

and, at times, muscle atrophy. Pain from joint

degeneration and increasing skeletal deformities such

as scoliosis are common. Some patients experience only

minor symptoms. While less common, others may develop

visible muscle atrophy, or wasting.

 

PPS is rarely life-threatening. However, untreated

respiratory muscle weakness can result in

underventilation, and weakness in swallowing muscles

can result in aspiration pneumonia.

 

The severity of residual weakness and disability after

acute poliomyelitis tends to predict the development

of PPS. Patients who had minimal symptoms from the

original illness will most likely experience only mild

PPS symptoms. People originally hit hard by the

poliovirus and who attained a greater recovery may

develop a more severe case of PPS with a greater loss

of muscle function and more severe fatigue. It

should be noted that many polio survivors were too

young to remember the severity of their original

illness and that accurate memory fades over time.

 

According to estimates by the National Center for

Health Statistics, more than 440,000 polio survivors

in the United States may be at risk for PPS.

Researchers are unable to establish a firm prevalence

rate, but they estimate that the condition affects 25

percent to 50 percent of these survivors, or possibly

as many as 60 percent, depending on how the disorder

is defined and which study is quoted.

 

Patients diagnosed with PPS sometimes are concerned

that they are having polio again and are contagious to

others. Studies have shown that this does not happen.

The cause of PPS is unknown. However, the new weakness

of PPS appears to be related to the degeneration of

individual nerve terminals in the motor units that

remain after the initial illness. A motor unit is a

nerve cell (or neuron) and the muscle fibers it

activates. The poliovirus attacks specific neurons in

the brainstem and the anterior horn cells of the

spinal cord. In an effort to compensate for the loss

of these neurons, ones that survive sprout new nerve

terminals to the orphaned muscle fibers. The result is

some recovery of movement and enlarged motor units.

 

Years of high use of these enlarged motor units adds

stress to the neuronal cell body, which then may not

be able to maintain the metabolic demands of all the

new sprouts, resulting in the slow deterioration of

motor units. Restoration of nerve function may occur

in some fibers a second time, but eventually nerve

terminals malfunction and permanent weakness occurs.

This hypothesis is consistent with PPS's slow,

stepwise, unpredictable course.

Pranic Healing:

 

1. Invoke and scan before, during and after

treatment.

 

2. General sweeping several times using LWG.

 

3. Localized thorough sweeping on the affected parts

located above the solar plexus area up to the head

alternately with LWG and ordinary LWV.

 

4. Localized thorough sweeping on the spine and on

both sides of the spine alternately with LWG and

ordinary LWV.

 

5. Localized thorough sweeping on the front, sides

and back of the lungs. Energize the lungs through the

back of the lungs with LWG, LWO then LWR.

 

Point your fingers away from the patient's head when

energizing with O.

 

6. Localized thorough sweeping on the forehead

chakra, ajna chakra, crown chakra, back head minor

chakra, jaw minor chakras, throat chakra and throat

minor chakra alternately with LWG and ordinary LWV.

Energize the chakras with LWG then with more of

ordinary LWV.

 

7. Localized thorough sweeping on the front and back

heart chakra. Energize the heart chakra through the

back heart chakra with LWG then with more of ordinary

LWV.

 

8. Localized thorough sweeping on the front and back

solar plexus chakra and the liver. Energize the solar

plexus with LWG, LWB then ordinary LWV.

Apply more localized sweeping.

 

9. Localized thorough sweeping on the perineum minor chakra, sex chakra, navel

chakra and basic chakra. Energize them with

LWR.

 

When energizing the basic chakra, visualize the energy

going into the affected muscles and into the spine.

 

10. Localized thorough sweeping on the entire leg,

their affected joints, the minor chakras of the hips,

knees, and soles of the feet alternately with LWG and

LWO. Energize the minor chakras with LWG then with

lots of LWR.

 

11. If the arms are affected, apply localized

thorough sweeping on the entire arms, their affected

joints, the minor chakras of the armpits, elbows, and

hands alternately with LWG and LWO. Energize the

minor chakras with LWG then with lots of LWR.

 

12. Stabilize and release projected pranic energy.

 

13. Play the Meditation on Twin Hearts(MTH) CD. If

the patient does not have any other conditions that

prevent the proper practice of the MTH, instruct the

patient to follow the guided Meditation.

 

If the patient has a medical condition that makes the

proper practice of the MTH not adviseable, instruct

the patient to just listen to the MTH with both eyes

open.

 

14. Repeat treatment 3 times per week.

 

15. Patient may practice the Meditation on Twin

Hearts daily. Alternate the MTH with self healing

with the MTH for psychological well-being.

 

Love,

 

Marilette
