"You must know, since you're reading this, that this is a testimony of how much I have been helped by Dr. Nelson. I wish I could be at his office door to greet you, and each new patient, because I remember very clearly how I felt on that first visit. There is only one objective I have for writing this. I want to encourage you to just give it a chance.
A friend told me what Dr. Nelson did for her. After seeing the changes in my friend and reading the testimonies of Dr. Nelson's patients I believed this was it. He would help me. I wouldn't let myself think "what if he can't help me. I made an appointment, had my daughter drive me, then saw Dr. Nelson one afternoon. After that big build-up I'm sorry to say I was NOT impressed. He did such weird things. It wasn't painful, but it seemed just too weird to actually help. I hadn't had his "program" explained to me at this point.
So why did I make another appointment with this unusual doctor? I was going on blind faith, because I was desperate to have my life back. A small part of me was terrified that I would just give up one day and kill myself. Now I can admit that I had prayed for God to just put me out of my misery. So even though I wasn't impressed on that first visit, desperation brought me back.
There is a great big smile on my face as I write these words. God finally answered my prayer. Not by taking my life, but by giving it back to me. I am happy to say I'm out of my misery !!!!!!!. I read something once that said "; ..you're not what I prayed for exactly but apparently you're the answer'. I didn't pray for a Dr. Nelson, but he was the answer.
Today I saw Dr. Nelson for the fourteenth day- That was twice a day for fourteen days. I am very close to being pain free 24- 7 (24 hours a day, seven days a week) .Over these past few weeks, the improvement has steadily increased, with a few bad days in-between. If you are considering whether or not to try Dr. Nelson's program, please keep these two things in mind. Dr. Nelson is NOT a nut. The treatment program WORKS.
You mayor may not be one of the lucky patients who feel some relief on the first treatment. It took me three days to say "I feel better today". After four days the change was even more noticeable. I can't even remember the last time a physician of traditional medicine helped me to feel better in just three days. Over the past 16 months, those traditional physicians performed two surgical procedures, several expensive and painful tests, prescribed countless medications, and then gave up on helping me. The following is a breakdown of BDN and ADN (before Dr. Nelson and after Dr. Nelson). I don't consider the specifics as important as the whole, but they are pretty impressive.
Before Dr. Nelson:
Pain in lower abdomen associated with bladder. On scale of 1 to 10 (1 is a paper cut, 5 is an abscessed tooth, ten is labor pains) pain was never less than a 4, usually stayed at a 6, occasionally hit a 10).
Forced to quit work. Pain prevented me from being able to sit at all, limited walking, no lifting, bending at the waist, kneeling, or stooping.
Not being, able to sit was the worst I couldn't drive, use a computer, writing had to be done laying down, no cooking, laundry, household chores. Excursions were limited to Dr. visits, being driven by a family or friends, reclining in the car. Missed picking out gifts for Christmas, birthdays, anniversaries, joining family around the dinner table. Couldn't go see new grandson and granddaughter. The list is endless.
After Dr. Nelson:
Following 4th day I drove myself to the Dr. 1 and I haven't stopped. Ifs a 30 minute drive. On the 6th day I went to the mall for the two hours between appointments, shopped with my daughter for the first time in over a year and a half. On the 9th day I rearranged the living room furniture. On the 10th day .I attended a dinner party after a full day of working on a handicraft project.
Literally EVERY activity I listed above as not being able to do, I can now do.
Before Dr. Nelson:
Fibromyalgia for 8 years. Unable to work until I was helped by someone practicing acupressure. Worked full time for 5 years as a school secretary .Severe chronic pain in chest wall, ribs, and back. Three and a half years ago I began having severe migraines, with a headache that never left for one full year. I was fortunate enough to work with people who valued my efforts, regardless of how much work-' missed (which was considerable). This was a daily battle, just going to work. Most often, couldn't cook dinner or take care of the house, nothing much beyond working. The medications prescribed came with there own depressing list of side effects: Weird dreams and nightmares, dry eyes & mouth & nose, night-sweats and too warm during the day, vision problems, lack of strength and energy, memory loss, irritable bowel syndrome, and on & on.
After Dr. Nelson:
All of the above are gone. Today I carried the vacuum cleaner down stairs and completely cleaned everything down there. Five weeks ago I couldn't even walk down the stairs more than twice a day! It's been eight years since I could carry that vacuum without feeling extreme pain! Where did it go? This all consuming pain that I have lived with so long that it seems like forever is just gone.
I expected to live the rest of my life on the sidelines, with family and friends always having to "make allowances" for my delicate condition. No more. Never again. No way. I'm back in the saddle and I'm staying there. My home will be clean again. My husband can rest when he gets home from work because I will have dinner ready. He won't have to do laundry or drive to town every week for groceries and banking. I can do those things and so much more. No more permanent frown on my face. No more asking for the radio to be turned down because it made my head hurt. No more wearing sweats all the time, not having my hair styled. I don't know who that other woman was that took up residence in my body these past eight years, but if she shows up again I'll have Dr. Nelson work his magic and make her disappear.
Look out honey…….I'm Baack!!!"
"I had been a very active person, can't wasn't in my vocabulary. I managed several offices for a temporary service & was active in my community & a single mom with 3 teenagers. I was married in early 1993 & we built a home and was very busy .For years I had health problems but was always able to stay in control, then in 1994 I totally lost my health. First I was told I had chronic fatigue, then it got worse, I was existing in a recliner with ice packs & heating pads. My body was in such pain I couldn't sleep. I couldn't sit or lay I just sorta was at a tilt, I remember barely being able to pull open the refrigerator door as I was so weak. I hurt everywhere even my skin hurt, my clothes hurt me, noise sent me in a tizzy, I was cold all the time & it was very difficult to walk. I had even quit going to the mailbox, & I began taking baths because I couldn't stand in the shower long enough to wash myself. I had seen many chiropractors, was on numerous vitamins and tried eating the best quality foods, no sugar etc.
Finally after many tests I was told I had Fibromyalgia and would get worse and all they could do was give me pain pills and muscle relaxers. A friend told me I needed to talk to a Dr. Bruce Nelson in MT. So after a somewhat strange conversation I knew I had to go see this man. So my husband and I with a miracle from God planned a trip to MT. My husband was extremely skeptical and I was walking on faith.
On Monday morning we walked into Dr. Nelson's office and he began treating me, he told my husband he better go through the treatments also or he might not be able to keep up with me. So reluctantly he joined me. I can't explain what happen that week, I believe Dr. Nelson is gifted by the Lord above and he is able to read the body and help the body in a very natural, yet unexplainable way. After the first day of treatments I as quite exhausted but was so happy that my hips didn't hurt and I felt so free to walk that we walked a lot that evening. I was rejoicing already. I had been to many chiropractors but never had this happened. I remember taking a picture of a beautiful farm with mountains behind and I walked across the road to get the best shot crying because before I would have taken it from the car as I couldn't walk much and getting in and out of the car was such a challenge. I have that photo blown up & hanging above my computer so when I see it I feel that freedom Dr. Nelson gave me. Back to his office on Tuesday and another day of treatments and more improvement. Wednesday then ended at 3: 15 p.m. and he is off on Thursday he said my body needed a break from treatments and come back at 3 :30 on Friday for treatments before catching my flight home. This was a 48 hour break and we were in beautiful MT and we had never had a honeymoon yet. I felt like someone had let me out of a cage. I don't ever remember feeling that good. I think most of my life I had some sort of challenge keeping me from GOOD HEALTH……. now I felt 100% and was so very excited.
We went into Glacier Park & spent the next 48 hours in God's beauty. I walked a 3 mile trail ! ! ! ! ! Yes I did and did it without hurting. I also went horse back riding. My husband thought I was really pushing it but I had to do it. I can remember when I was walking up to the horse the sign said you must be a certain height & able to mount the horse yourself in order to go. I mounted the huge horse alone, as I sat in the saddle I was crying with joy and bewilderment. Just 3 days ago if someone had said mount the horse or die I would have been dead cause there was no way I could have willed myself to be able to do that cause it was physically impossible for me, and here I sat. It was the most wonderful beautiful 2 hours riding through the beautiful mountains & rejoicing to be able to do this. I truly had the best 48 hours of my life.
Friday we returned for our final treatments and was off to the airport. Both my husband and I benefited tremendously from Dr. Nelson, it was the best decision we could make for our health. I know that Dr. Nelson is one of a kind and I am so thankful I met him and he gave me back my life. I thank God for putting him in my path and for laying His hand on Dr. Nelson.
We all tune up our cars and maintain our possessions, I don't understand why people don't make a yearly trip to Dr. Nelson to get a tune up and feel like a million bucks all the time. I like feeling so good. I don't think most of us know what is like to really feel good, we are conditioned to put up with minor problems. After really losing your health you know what it is worth, and without our health nothing else means much on this earth. Forever grateful to Dr. Nelson."
"After visiting several orthopedic specialists, and medical doctors for symptoms of achy and swollen joints, fatigue, and immune system problems, out of pure desperation we contacted Dr. Nelson in August of this year. Each of our six children, as well as myself, all seemed to have struggled with the same symptoms of aches and fatigue. In addition to the symptoms of Fibromyalgia , we also have a son with Asthma and two children with Insulin Dependent Diabetes. As we talked to Dr. Nelson and did some research we felt strongly that this was something we needed to do.
From the very first day of treatment with Dr. Nelson we had improved health. The most noticeable difference was the amount of energy we immediately felt along with the aches and pains disappearing. Our 18-month-old baby had an entirely different disposition after being treated by Dr. Nelson for just seconds. It truly was amazing to see him so happy all of the time. Our 13 year old daughter was able to run for the first time in 4 years without severe pain. We had taken her to specialists who had diagnosed her with arthritis and had her on anti-inflammatory medication for years. Our son with asthma has not had any asthmatic symptoms since our visit. Something that we have watched with excitement, is the improvement of our two diabetic children. We have been able to decrease the amount of insulin they are taking and continue to see improvement each day. The chromium that our son is taking for his diabetes has also made a great deal of difference in regulating his blood sugar and preventing any hypoglycemic symptoms as well. An added benefit came to my husband who has had allergies most of his life. He has been unable to eat fruits with citric acid without severe swelling in his throat. He is also allergic to dogs and cats., It has been a pleasant surprise for him to be exposed to any and all of these things without any type of reaction.
We are grateful for the improved health and hopeful that it will continue."
"How I wish I had known of Bruce Nelson and his method for treating Fibromyalgia six years ago when my nightmare began! I suffered so long without really knowing what was wrong. I went to conventional doctors and had all the tests that I am sure many of you have. I was given many of the medications that are standard treatment for Fibromyalgia patients: Elavil, Paxil, Prozac and the rest. I was willing to try anything to make the pain go away, but I felt more like a mental patient that a Fibromyalsia sufferer.
In some cases, the pain did subside for a short period or time, but always returned. Then I would embark on another quest for pain relief up until this time, I had been self-employed, a single parent of three and a foster mother to many. I found myself slowly : unable to manage my lifestyle or my employment until I found myself unable to work for the past two years.
Many days I woke up thinking I would start my day as I had for the past 40 years, and I discover that I had no energy, I ached all over and was unable to perform the simplest task: fixing dinner, dusting, or loading a dishwasher without it taking all day and leaving me exhausted. I was so depressed and saddened to think that this was how I was going to spend the rest of my life. Some of my doctors believed me, and some didn't, but none of them knew what to do.
Approximately 4 months ago, my family and I left our home and moved to Kalispell Montana. We were settling into our lifestyle here: getting a phone hooked up, establishing a P.O. Box, the usual jobs. My job was reduced to riding around in the car, laying on the seat crying. You can probably imagine how much help this was. We kept driving past a doctor's office that had a marquee out front which read the following: Fibromyalsia, Chronic Fatigue, and Allergies. After three days of driving past this office (it was on the main drag and we had no choice), I asked my friend to stop. I said in the car , "please, just let me go inside and see if this doctor has anything new to suggest". I had decided that if he was a "pill pusher" I wasn't going that route again. My friend stopped the car, and literally had to carry me up the steps to the office. The doctor saw me right away and began explaining his technique for treatment and why. I was unable to listen as I was in such pain. I said, "look, if you think you can help my pain level just do whatever it is you do and if I feel better, I'll be back". He said, "ok". His treatment consisted of the most remarkable concept and non-evasive treatment. Best of all, it worked.
I walked out of his office completely free of leg pain, which I hadn't experienced in four years. The next two weeks I went through his complete program and am happy to say that I am now working two very difficult jobs that require hard physical labor, and it is hard to believe that I am able to perform these duties, keep my house clean, prepare meals and still have time for recreation and energy as well!
This is not a paid advertisement, although iv very well may sound that way. It is a true story and it happened to me. I am so grateful to this doctor and just wanted to share my experience with you and hopefully you will choose to share it with anyone you know who is suffering. I am not here to guarantee anything to anyone or to even suggest that it will work for everyone, but I know how it affected me, how much sense the treatment makes, and that this is something that doesn't require you to take a pill everyday. My symptoms are gone and have stayed gone for over 4 months. I am so grateful."
"For the past seventeen years my health started going downhill very fast. Only for the last three years did I know what was really wrong. The doctors did not know what it was and test did not show anything. I hurt badly all the time that I could hardly function to do anything. Stress in my life had become almost unbearable. To keep functioning, I would have to meet the demand and then collapse for a few days in order to go again. I could not sleep but maybe an hour at a time and then stay up for two or three hours before going back to sleep. I could sit, lay down and walk for a short period of time. I could not stand still in one place at all. To pick up an empty bowl was a real chore. The doctors had given me pain medicine and muscle relaxers but they did as much good as eating candy. Every organ began to malfunction and my liver became so hard I could hardly stand to touch the area. My throat would almost close to the place I could barely swallow. I began to go to chiropractors for massages and ultra sound treatments that helped with the pain some but did nothing for the disease itself. I even prayed and asked God to let me die and go home because my life was over as far as having any quality. I could not enjoy any family functions or any function for that matter. I could not walk up steps except by putting one foot up and pulling the other up beside it and then pulling on a handrail. I had hard knots the size of large marbles in my legs that hurt all the time. I talked to a person that had been to see a Dr. Bruce Nelson. He had helped her get rid of her Fibromyalgia and I told my husband I had to see if this was true. I had tried about everything else and had made a decision not to put any more drugs in my body or have anything else removed. The night before we got to Montana (it took us three tiring days) we stopped at a motel and did not think I would make it. After two days of treatments with Dr. Nelson, my husband and I went to Glacier National Park and I walked up and down mountains (sometimes I ran a little too). I had a blast. I thought living might be OK after all. After a week of treatments, I could hardly feel the knots in my legs and I could stand for something to touch my skin. Before, if someone even got close, I would hurt. Before, I would have to lie down from four to five times a day just to survive. Now, I hardly ever lay down to rest through the day. In fact, because for the last seventeen years I have hardly done anything or even had the energy to do it I find myself going 90 miles an hour and enjoying every minute of it. It's like I have so much time to make up for and so many dreams inside that I thought could never happen and not enough time to get it all done. On the way home, after the treatments, we stopped at a park in the mountains and I began to cry. I told my husband that God had given me back my life and I wanted to go home and see what He wanted me to do with it. Life is very precious to me. If I can help at least one person get their life back by telling what happened to me, then, what I went through will have been worth it. I would like to say thank you to the wonderful man (Dr. Nelson) God allowed to give me back my life. My husband kept saying all the way home that he would never have believed it if he had not seen it himself God has truly given Dr. Nelson a gift and I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs restoring. The week I spent with him was the most wonderful thing that has happened to me. To have someone care enough about a person to spend that kind of time to help one live -- May God richly bless you Dr. Nelson for the work you are doing and for standing up for something when most doctors say there is nothing that can be done and we'll have to learn to cope. Well praise God, I no longer have to learn to live with it. Thank you from the bottom of my heart."
Forever Grateful
"This is a personal testimony regarding the medical challenges that led to life changing events experienced on attendance at Dr. Bruce Nelson's clinic.
My name is Debbie B. and I live in New Westminster, British Columbia, Canada.
I am a previous nurse and lawyer by profession, and my medical problems began in the fall of 1988.
I started to notice that I was becoming increasingly tired all the time, was aching and sore all over and having a lot of difficulty dragging myself out of bed to go to my job as an articling law student. By November 1988 I was increasingly stiff, sore and aching all the time. I was having major problems writing due to the pain, swelling and soreness in my hands. This problem worsened as did the previous ones, and when I also began to have difficulty walking and breathing as well I had to leave my employment.
My condition continued to worsen to the point where my husband had to carry me to the bathroom and take over all aspects of my daily living as well as run the household. This was devastating to both of us. We were newly married and I was finishing the final requirements needed to become a lawyer. If I did not finish these requirements I would not be able to embark on the career I had worked so hard towards.
I waited until February 1989 to be seen by a specialist who examined me and stated that he knew exactly what was wrong with me. He said that I presented with all of the "classic" symptoms of Fibromyalgia. I remember actually being excited. Now that I had a diagnosis I was sure they would just "fix" me with a pill and my husband and I could get on with our lives.
How wrong I was, as this was when the nightmare began! I spent the next nine years in a spin going from one specialist to another, all the top of their given fields. After I began to develop further medical problems such as severe adult onset asthma, kidney problems: esophageal strictures (my throat would close due to lesions there which had to be removed), thyroid problems, hormonal problems, and finally a heart murmur. I was also diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. As the Doctor explained that I actually had two illnesses I felt my life spiraling completely out of control. And it remained there for the next nine years.
I had bad days and worse days. Sometimes I was able to get out of bed, some days I wasn't. My activities throughout most these years ranged anywhere from being able to go outside for a short period of time and come back and rest for the remainder of the day to being totally bedridden for days and months on end .
Sometimes I could prepare a meal, sometimes I couldn't. I remember wondering how many other people had to lie down in bed to peel carrots? The big problem was, I NEVER knew what one I would be like one hour to the next, let alone one day to the next. My husband spent thousands of dollars and probably as many hours in search of any aid for daily living that might help us cope better with these devastating afflictions.
Our lives became totally centered around my physical condition. I was in two accidents as well. One in 1990 and another in 1993. Both of these accidents significantly exacerbated my symptoms. The accident in 1990 left me with a back injury which coupled with my Fibromyalgia and exacerbation of previous back problems led to the above mentioned events through the years. This 1990 event also was the beginning of an eight-year lawsuit which significantly stressed my existing health challenges and played havoc with my already depressed state of mind.
I did manage to go back and finish my articling and bar admission course with many breaks and a couple of hospitalizations during the period. I did become a lawyer in the fall of 1990. I worked as a lawyer for two months and was unable to continued, not having been employed since.
One of the new symptoms I was faced with was significant memory loss and brain fog. A scan of my head actually showed that there were changes in my brain function due to chronic fatigue syndrome.
My life consisted of trials of medications, side effects from all of them, treatment after various treatments and shuffling to what seemed like every medical specialist in the greater Toronto area. I saw rheumatologists, neurologists, cardiologists, respirologists, specialists in internal medicine, endocrinologists and gynecologists. Things did not change significantly until June 1998.
In June 1998 friends of mine introduced me to some unique health care products which had a significant impact on my health. My energy returned, I was no longer either sleeping all the time or not at all, my breathing improved, my back problems subsided and I stopped aching for the first time since 1988! I thought it was a miracle. My health started to come back and my husband and I began to have some semblance of our lives back.
Unfortunately, this was short lived. Although these wonderful product really helped me and continue to do so today, they only helped alleviate symptoms. As I began to try and live what I considered a normal life again my health began to deteriorate once more.
In April 1999 my back and left leg became increasingly painful and symptoms of Fibromyalgia began to return. By the end of May I was completely bedridden as I was unable to walk due to severe discomfort in my left leg and in fact kept passing out because of it. I was diagnosed with a severe debilitating back problem and the only option I had was back surgery. Many years of what the Doctors called "conservative" back treatment had been tried on me and I was to the point where surgery was the only option.
This was a very frightening proposition to me because there was a risk of making my underlying back problems worse and I also have a muscle condition that makes me an anesthetic risk. However, I saw no option as I couldn't; walk and the narcotic patches that the doctor had given me did nothing at all to alleviate my discomfort.
When a good friend called me at the beginning of July with Dr. Nelson on. the phone I was at the end of my rope. I had been in bed for six weeks at this point. Dr. Nelson over the phone asked my mother to do several things that hopefully would make me feel better.
He then said that I should feel better in about three days and hopefully would be able to get out of bed. Having a medical and legal background was EXTREMELY skeptical about this, but at this point had nothing to lose! In three days I did get out of bed and the severe breathing problems I had been experiencing were greatly improved. :
I neglected to say that all of this took place in Ontario, and three days after this I was able to fly home to Vancouver from Toronto which was a five hour plane trip. Four days after returning to Vancouver I was able to fly to see Dr. Nelson in Montana. I was still skeptical, but could NOT ignore the fact that this man enabled me to walk and so far I had avoided the dreaded surgery.
What happened to me at Dr. Nelson's clinic was absolutely amazing. I stayed there for three weeks and had numerous treatments. Dr. Nelson managed to alleviate the severe problem in my leg and it remains gone today, six months later. The thought of surgery is completely gone. In a couple of days at his clinic I was actually running up stairs! I haven't been able to get up stairs in years!
I thought I was only going there for my leg and back problems. I was aching and sore all over again, experiencing difficulty with swelling and still having some trouble breathing. I also was having digestive problems that had caused me a lot of difficulty through the years and was unable to eat certain foods without major consequences. I also experienced severe discomfort in my chest and upper back from this problem. Within one week of being at Dr. Nelson's clinic I was able to go out walking and on a day sight-seeing trip with other patients. I could eat anything I wanted and my breathing problems were gone as well. The aching stopped completely, the swelling went away and I actually began to LOOK; years younger! I actually felt like I was on a holiday!
It is now six months later and as I write this I sometimes still can't believe that I went from being COMPLETELY bed-ridden to being able to go sight seeing two weeks later. This is nothing short of a miracle. Today I remain extremely well and am so grateful to Dr. Nelson on a daily basis. It is impossible to describe to someone how it feels to be able to get up and welcome a new day as a happy, healthy person again! I NEVER dreamt it was even a possibility!
I could never praise or thank Dr. Nelson enough. He is a true miracle worker. There are Doctors and there are Doctors who are Healers. Dr. Nelson is a Healer. I am so grateful that he was put in my life. Thank you from the bottom of my heart Dr. Nelson!"
Gratefully yours,
