Guest guest Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 Hi everyone! I just found this group tonight while doing research on sleep apnea, both oe and ce. I read the posts already made here.... but either missed anything that made recommendation on alternative therapies or there haven't been any. I have a friend who has both types... blood pressure is out of control, and his body is starting to shut down. His dr is trying to get his insurance to give him a cpap machine... other than that... does anyone know of anything alternative? My name is Randi and I have been involved in alternative therapy for over 20 years now. I am an iridologist and herbalist, although no longer consulting. I am a single mom of 3, with one still at home. I live in Colorado. Thanks for having me, and for ideas you all might share! Randi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 Randi, Well i have worked with a few people with apnea and it is difficult to treat. The surgery, though initially painful does work (or at least did the one time i knew someone who had it), but of course, this should be last resort. Often times, anxiety is a portion of the condition, so doing such things as progressive relaxation and hypnotherapy (good to have something on cd to listen to before going to sleep while making suggestions at the same time), are both helpful. He may also want to consider if there is excess mucus to clear that out, with herbs, as you are probably familiar with, the regular use of a neti pot and/or a vaporizer. Lastly, position during sleep appears to have a factor as well, encourage him to change and see if any position helps. Hope this helps, Tym " angel2spirit " <angel2spirit wrote: > > Hi everyone! > I just found this group tonight while doing research on sleep apnea, > both oe and ce.

Guest guest Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 Hi Randy, Stress reduction therapies are a must when you have high blood pressure. Oxygenation therapies for breathing issues, which is also a stress reduction process.

Guest guest Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 My recommendation is Shaolin Chi Kung. Trust me, you've got to consider this. Only SHAOLIN chi kung too...it's the most powerful kind (although there are only three authorized instructors in the US). Take a look at http://www.Wahnamwest.com. We are actually having this instructor come to our town to do a workshop and I've created a web page with an audio interview with him that you will find useful to listen to. Here's the link: http://www.chikungsitka.com Shaolin Chi Kung is the real deal and is easy to practice and see results. My husband has been practicing for a year and his results are incredible. I'm planning on starting after our workshop in March. Can't wait. Good luck and let me know if I can help in any way Best, Jenn http://www.radiantorganics.biz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 Randi, Colorado? Me too. Between Boulder/Denver? Where? Email me privately as I may have someone local for you if in Denver/metro area. It is alternative too. For the group here, sleep apnea I personally met someone who did the hallelujah diet successfully and seen others testimonies results in great results. You can search their health tip archives or perhaps see if they have a testimony for you at their website, www.hacres.com. I do lead healthy raw living group in Boulder too.
