It was his family's choice not to seek a physicians’ advice, and instead follow the Ayurvedic (natural and non-invasive to the body) method of healing. They have continued practicing Ayurvedic medicine since moving from India to the United States 13 years ago including being lacto-ovo vegetarian. AG (Joy’s mother) became pregnant with Joy while they were living in Boston.  AG was recovering from Bells Palsy when she gave birth to Joy.  Several years later, Joy’s father pursued employment in California. He left for months at a time, which is when Joy started suffering from breathing problems. When the family moved to California about two years ago, Joy started suffering from periods of low energy and an inability to walk. Joy was treated by a doctor of Chinese medicine and received acupuncture and herbal supplements. The acupuncture would work temporarily and he would be able to walk for a few days after a treatment.

​

Joy did not suffer from asthma. His  lungs wouldn’t expand properly and appeared more mechanical in nature. He was unable to fall sleep before 2 am and was fatigued most of the time. He experienced both leg and back pain and was unable to move his legs. He fell and broke his tailbone when he was younger but after it healed he was able to walk. Joy remained seated most of the day and the pain would come and go. He was so hypersensitive he would be “wiped out” simply by taking a shower. There didn’t appear to be a particular trigger for the pain.  Joy was carried into the office for his Ondamed treatment on 11/9/07.

​

During his first Ondamed session on November 9th of 2007 the practitioner found circulatory system and glands were the main areas of interference. When testing the microorganism responses on him, his biological terrain was generally infested with fungus and parasites. He received treatments on 11/15 and 11/27 and there was no change in his condition.

​

During his treatment on 12/4/07 the practitioner noted microorganism frequencies with a very strong response in the neck area. He appeared to have a set back and had more difficultly moving. His treatment on 12/14/07 the Individual Specific scan revealed main areas of interference were in the stomach and colon.  Frequencies applied to all of the abdominal areas as well as the hips, knees and ankles. After this treatment he was able to walk for short periods of time up until the 20th of December before his next treatment.  He had stopped walking the day before his treatment on 12/21/07. He started walking again after this treatment.

​

When he received his next treatment on 12/27/07 the practitioner noted microorganism frequencies for parasites corresponded to liver, gallbladder and intestines. He was still able to walk for a few days after the last treatment. He appeared to stop walking right before treatments. Pain also was also less constant as was the fatigue. Some days he had great energy and afterwards he would crash.

On 12/28/07 the microorganism frequencies appeared again and corresponded to the liver area as well as the intestines. He was still able to walk for several days but not more than 4-5 days after treatment.

 

He received another treatment on 1/3/08 and 1/10/08. He walked for 3-4 days after treatment and his breathing improved greatly after the sessions.

After his treatment on 1/14/08 he walked but was very weak for 4 days after the treatment. On 1/24/08 specific frequencies were found that corresponded to his back.

​

When Joy came in for his appointment on 1/28/08 he was still being carried in for his treatment. The practitioner added a red root herbal extract to activate his spleen. On 1/29/08 he left the visit with charged water. Joy was able to walk into each session from this visit forward. The visit on the 29th was the first time he walked into the office on his own.

​

Joy received treatments on 2/3/08 and 2/7/08 and reported that he was still improving. By his visit on 2/12/08 all of his symptoms improved and he was able to fall asleep earlier and remain asleep up to 7 hours. He was improving his ability to walk and shower without assistance now (his muscles had atrophied). The pain was substantially diminished and no longer an issue.

​

On 2/15/ 08 treatment was applied to his knees and spine. His supplements were reduced to a minimum because they appeared to be causing intestinal distress. He was still doing well and improving. He also reported improvement during his treatment on 2/19/08.

​

By his treatment on 2/29/08 Joy was walking and breathing well. His main complaint was that he was extremely stressed about schoolwork (although he is a straight A student). The focus of the treatment was on stress and brain function. Much of the stress appeared to stem from his relationship with his mother who was very demanding with very rigid and high expectations. She is also the one who instilled fear about living in the United States and how dangerous it was. Joy is very sensitive to his mothers’ stress and feelings. The stress was affecting his schoolwork. He found it more difficult to concentrate and complete his work.

​

He received a treatment on 3/18/08 that produced a very relaxing effect for him. He felt more relaxed and less stressed. By the next visit he reported that his schoolwork improved and he was better able to apply himself.  Joy received additional treatment on 3/25/08, 4/8/08 and 4/15/08 and still reported that he was doing very well and feeling great.  Before his treatment on 4/18/08 he had developed a rash on his back. It went away the next day after it was treated with Ondamed.

​

Joy received a treatment on 4/22/08 and the practitioner applied individual specific frequencies for the stomach in reactionary areas of lower abdomen, jaw, knees, throat, and right lymphatic ducts as well as preset programs. Joy was still improving and feeling great.

​

During his treatment on 4/26/08 Joy appeared extremely stressed and fatigued. He felt much better immediately after treatment and was able to focus and be more relaxed.

​

Joy discussed strong ego and cultural issues that were creating a “clash” for him during his treatment on 4/29/08. For the first time he appeared arrogant and was very mad at his parents and Indian culture and was putting everything down. He was much calmer and more relaxed after treatment.

​

He received treatment on 5/4/08 and was doing well. After his treatment on 5/16/08 he reported being progressively active. He was walking more, riding his bicycle and he was now playing basketball. He is no longer obsessed with computer gaming and has become a more avid reader. He expressed he was no longer angry with his parents and more comfortable with himself and his culture. The difference was very noticeable.

Joy received a treatment on 5/20/08 for a bicycle accident that injured his testicles. He was immediately better after treatment.

​

Joy received treatments on 5/ 27/08, 6/10/08, 6/13/08, 6/21/08, 7/1/08 and 7/21/08 and was still doing great overall. He was leading a normal healthy life and was enthusiastic. He was also getting along better with his mother and his father. His mother received several treatments as well because she saw such an enormous affect on her son. She became calmer; less stressed and was no longer causing stress to her son. Apparently both parents were so afraid of living in this country they instilled their fear into the child. The family was no longer living in fear and was now able to participate in the community.

​

Joy is in Denver where he has been vacationing at his cousin's home. He is still taking some flower essences, a few herbal extracts, as well as reduced amounts of nutritional supplements. He continues to do very well and is going to vacation in India for a month with his family. His case will be updated again.
