Natural Cure for Depression
Today's ASK Doctor T: Natural cure for depression.
Question: I've suffered from major depression for the past 20 plus years and does not respond well to anti-depressive medications; have had ECT done for it. I looked into some alternative care type solutions but would like some guidance about what would help me. Thank you.
Answer:
Hello John,
I will be happy to assist you with these conditions, utilizing the functional, nutritional, preventive, and environmental medicine approaches, which have proven effective with many chronic conditions. This effectiveness is due to the reliance on identifying the causes and biochemical processes that lead to disease, rather than treating the symptoms while ignoring the causes. I have had many patients who did very well with this approach in the past (read this testimonial severe depression relieved: treatment Testimonial). We would need to discuss your personal and medical history, occupational and environmental exposures, and decide on the most appropriate laboratory tests (for a list of some popular tests, please check doctor-t). This would require a phone consultation or an appointment, which can be scheduled with my assistant (Joe Noreen, co-director of Ecopolitan).
His direct number is (612)870-2974. My fees are reasonable and you don't need to have more than a few appointments to be on the path to recovery via independent self-care (assuming you follow the instructions, take the lab tests, and implement the necessary products and lifestyle improvements recommended, and assuming that no permanent damage or severe genetic factors are at play). The laboratory tests are unique, science-based, and holistically oriented, leading to specific treatment. They cost more than the appointments (you will be informed of the costs ahead of time), but this is strictly lab fees, and you have the option of not doing the tests (relying instead on symptoms, medical history, exam findings, and my experience) if your budget won't permit you to obtain these objective findings.
I look forward to guiding you toward a healthier body and mind, greater productivity, and social & emotional wellness. Yours, Dr. T
