We all have our own experiences. In the 90s I had an illness that was not well known to the medical community so I had to seek treatment outside normal Western medicine. Which was tough for me at the time as I thought doctors knew everything. Ha! Ha!

I had colonics done and those were not FDA approved either and people were secretly doing them. It was important to find someone who used all new tubing each time and who you fully trusted. Those colonics took me from feeling like I was always in a fog to lifting that fog and feeling myself, after about 6-7 treatments. I'd do it again if I had to (not that it was pleasant.)

Same with a chiropractor we had for years. So sad when he retired because he was like the best healer we've ever known. People flocked to him and he practiced his method very quietly and stayed under the radar because what he was doing was also not FDA approved. Yet it worked!! They offer it in Canada and people love it. Why it's not approved here is beyond me. It's the best form of chiropractic care we've ever had and he hardly ever cracked our backs or necks. He used a device, can't think of what it's called, that was gentle and it worked. It was truly amazing. My husband was told the only thing that would help him was to have surgery on his neck. As a last resort we decided to try this guy who we had heard was very unconventional. Well, after six visits his pain was gone and his doctor amazed at how his neck issue had resolved.

So sometimes the FDA gets it wrong. Sometimes they get it right. Sometimes it's worth the risk because nothing else is working. Especially when you know others who are using the therapy with success and you do your own research and ask tons of questions.
