Ideally this will be the person that sent you for the scan but that’s not always possible. What we need to remember is that scans are often quite limiting. For instance a scan can’t tell you the following:
As many of my clients will know I love a corny saying. One of my favourites is that “we treat a person not a scan”. People are often quite fearful after having a scan and reading a report with medical jargon. Part of treating a person is listening to their fears and often educating them on what a scan actually means. What they don’t say in a report with “abnormal” findings is that the may be completely normal depending on a persons stage of life. For instance – degeneration sounds relatively frightening. However “degeneration” is a normal age related finding. I liken it to wrinkles on your face. When you are a teenager we don’t have wrinkles but as we age it is entirely normal to develop wrinkles. So degeneration in a joint or spine can be likened to wrinkles on your face – normal with age. Secondly degeneration doesn’t necessarily mean painful. People can have degeneration in any part of the body and not know anything about it and live a full pain free life. Now I’m not saying scans aren’t helpful. In certain situations, they can give important clinical information that assists in guiding treatment. However, they do not tell the whole story and won’t necessarily change the treatment you will receive. If you have had a scan make sure you speak with a health professional that can appropriately interpret the scan and report and then take the time to work with you to explain what is happening. Not sure if you need a scan or not? Our Tarragindi physiotherapists can help you make that decision!

I suffered from what they called peripheral artery disease (PAD). I have been suffering for years, Me and my wife searched for a medical cure, and then we came across a testimony of a man who suffered the same and was cured by Dr Chief Lucky. So my wife and I contacted Dr Chief Lucky via an email and thank God he replied. I explained what was wrong and he sent me herbal medicines that helped heal me completely. I am happy to say that herbal medicine is the ultimate and Dr Chief Lucky I am grateful.

My ex-husband and I had always managed to stay friendly after our divorce in February 2017. But I always wanted to get back together with him, All it took was a visit to this spell casters website last December, because my dream was to start a new year with my husband, and live happily with him.. This spell caster requested a specific love spell for me and my husband, and I accepted it. And this powerful spell caster began to work his magic. And 48 hours after this spell caster worked for me, my husband called me back for us to be together again, and he was remorseful for all his wrong deeds. My spell is working because guess what: My “husband” is back and we are making preparations on how to go to court and withdraw our divorce papers ASAP. This is nothing short of a miracle. Thank you Dr Emu for your powerful spells. Words are not enough.
