Treatment with Atlas correction and Orthodontics
TMJD, Cold hands and feet, Sleep, eyesight, posture, stamina, digestive problems
James P.
March 2011

I was recommended to see Dr Amir from Canada. Whilst I was there, I had been having problems with my jaw, concentration, energy-level digestion and overall well-being. It was difficult to keep weight on and to gain weight was almost impossible, despite eating very considerable quantities of food.

I had also been diagnosed with TMJD some years earlier.
Benefits had been gained from Osteopathy and a nutritionist and homeopathy, and the general trend was positive. However, after contracting food poisoning, I was very unwell and recovery was very slow.

My general symptoms were, cold hands, and extremities, being underweight and being relatively lethargic relative to what I had been; my stamina was variable, as were sleeping patterns and eating habits-though I had a very healthy, organic, varied diet-tested for allergies etc.

The first treatment was a mouth insert. The effect was very soon after applying this. My sleeping pattern came back after many years, and I went to sleep at more regular hours, without really trying to. Also, I started to put on weight, and had more stamina for walking, and even at the computer, typing.

After the atlas treatment, my hands instantly became saturated with a warm sensation and the circulation returned-my hands were bright red [This is what is diagnosed as Raynaud's disease where the circulation in the extremities is very poor] and I had feeling in them unlike I had had in years. Circulation also improved remarkably in my face and was commented on by many, without informing them of what had taken place. Flexibility, dexterity, general sensation and the fineness of touch were greatly increased. My feet too were much more relaxed and warmer than before. My whole complexion changed from a pasty colour to a warm, healthy glow - an enormous change.

It was clear that my breathing was shallow and there was a difference in eyesight between the two sides, left and right. These both improved also after the treatment(immediately after), with my being able to bend down and to be much, much more flexible through the central region of the torso, for example when bending to pick something up.

Eyesight was improved in the following areas:

Peripheral vision, the strength of colours, finer movements of my eyes and perception of depth were the most immediately noticeable along with increased colour perception differentiating colours. They were all much more vibrant as well as vivid.

With the use of the removable plates- a second was soon added as well as that for my upper jaw; for the lower jaw. My jaw felt as though it finally had at last some resting place, and the reduction of tension with the brace in was exceptional. For the first time in years that my jaw felt somewhat relaxed and in a position it could rest. Not only that I could swallow better, stand better and my digestion gave growls of satisfaction. My eating patterns and appetite were much improved, as were the structure of my stools. I put on more weight, something that had not been possible for seven years. It has stayed on and continued; as a result, I am a much healthier weight than what I was.

Regarding the initial results:

My stamina elevated to a level very quickly within a week, whereby I could undertake tasks in succession I had not previously been able to undertake
unless activities were spaced out much more. I was also sleeping much more satisfactorily. In short, I was getting into a more usual pattern and level of function, which helped bring all the aspects of healing and improved health together. My appetite also improved, with weight much easier to hold on to.

The next aspect noticed:

Regarding my ears and sinuses, these had been areas that had to some degree harboured infections when I became ill-they were weak points due to the tightness and the tension from the jaw and face, something that had earlier been identified by an ENT consultant, who had thought that not much could be done, and had concurred with the TMJD diagnosis.

Some weeks in, the results have been wholly positive, and without the use of nasty or invasive procedures or drugs for that matter. It has addressed the core of the problem identified, for it has addressed:

Breathing
Swallowing
Digestive difficulties
Weight
Concentration
Stamina
Circulation
With demonstrably positive results and to great effect.

Before seeing Dr Amir, the results from other forms of treatment-the gamut of physio, osteopathy of various kinds, all given a chance over years, and did have a very positive effects - were not as comprehensive or far-reaching in such a space of time.

Since he has developed his treatment, it has made all the difference and without which, in fundamental areas, my health was deteriorating. The change for the better cannot be overstated. It is improving all the time as the treatment continues to progress. I am more than satisfied, and it has meant that I can lead a 'normal life' rather than being concerned or posed difficulties by some health aspects.

Best regards,

James
