Peeling the Layers of the Onion

The advantage of WK technique is that we can peel away the laters of the onion to reveal the underlying causes of disease and symptoms.  I love working with patients who are patient and understand the nature of disease and getting back to health.  Sometimes this happens very quickly and other times it may take years. The advantage of WK is that we can ask the body where to start and how to proceed.  Sometimes we have to heal one thing in order to get to the next layer.  It is super important that the client understand that actually healing a condition that may have been there awhile can take time.  While it may appear that Medications work instantly, it is a dangerous illusion.  Symptoms may be gone but the raging imbalance is there are progressing further.  This is where education is so important.  The healing journey should be a lifelong endeavor to stay on top of imbalances that can lead to organic dysfunction later in life. 

Many of my patients understand this and get checked on a regular basis to stay ahead of issues that may be brewing under the surface.  I have one client in particular that is exemplary in this regard.  He is in his 70's and is in top physical shape.  He works out consistently, eats well and does emotional work to clear his issues that keep him from being the best he can be.  Still he gets checked monthly to make sure he isn't missing anything.  He works at Sandia National Laboratories and has some exposure to toxic and radioactive chemicals. He is smart enough to know that these could lead to bad consequences if he ignores them.  

We do occasionally find some toxic build up and adjust his program to make sure things are moving through his body and not causing damage.  This is a really smart thing to do, as we are ALL exposed to chemicals constantly, it's our abilitiy to detoxify that is CRITICAL to staying healthy!

Moral of the story-Stay on top of your health program on a regular basis!

All the best!
