The Importance of Slowing Down & Knee Pain

I just got done reading an article by John Collis, Ph.D. in a small town newspaper in North Eastern Ohio called “Mimi.”

Anyhow, the essence of the article Dr. Collis was writing about was regarding how important it is for the tendons and ligaments in the knees that an athlete properly slow down after running.

Dr. Collis states: “Consider an automobile collision. This is clearly an extreme example of ineffective deceleration. Believe it or not, the case of the automobile is similar to what is occurring within the bodies of most athletes. Instead of utilizing the involved muscles to properly [Read more...]

Very Cool Insight Into Knee Pain

Knee Pain & Arthritis

Hi Everyone,

This week I had an interesting discovery regarding Knee Pain & Arthritis.

I asked a friend of mine who is a medical doctor about Knee Pain from Arthritis and what it looks like when an MRI is taken at a hospital.

Now this is my interpretation and the picture that I was looking at resembled almost “corrosion” of the joint and the way the disease was “eating away” at the joint of the knee.

So then I started thinking about this book I read by an Iranian doctor named F. Batmanghelidj, M.D. who did extensive research on the subject of pain and chronic dehydration. His studies show when we the body maintains a state of chronic dehydration it does not have the proper PH Balance (7.4) to continue normal body functions. As a result of this acidic state in the body it would go to show that this acidic state would then begin to “eat” or “rot” away the joints depending on the tension pattern that the body is holding onto. You could think of an analogy of a slow moving meandering stream as opposed to a fast moving river.

Anyhow, based on this type of understanding in the body and a tension pattern holding in the body causing the acidic state to be lodged in the knees. This acidic state could begin to develop into a condition like arthritis. Dr. B in his book, “You Are Not Sick You are Thirsty,” indicated that the initial stages of dehydration that causes this acidic state in the body begins to irritate the nerve ending in the joints causing the experience of pain.

With this information and getting the body to the place free of excess tension in addition to drinking more water, I believe could begin to undue the effects cause by Arthritis…
