The message is getting through
I heard from a colleague who has a friend in Poland with IC and she was asking if anyone knew a herbalist in Poland with experience in treating IC. I immediately gave your name and the ICAMA website address and have heard that she has changed her diet and is getting some relief. She has been in touch with your clinic but is unable to visit USA at the moment. So, the message is getting through.Maybe you could have a visitor counter on the website to see how many hits you get?
HIts
I can see how many people read what, and how many people are on line at one time and if they are members or visitors. But, I dont think we track from where. I do seem to be getting more attention in that area of the world, which, is lovely. But, often people cannot come. It is tragic. I am just kind of between a rock and a hard spot with all of that. I am aware of the importance and trying to work on it. Thank you Jane! And, I am going to post your recipe today, I am a bit behind:)
Trip to Europe
Have you ever thought of maybe making a trip to Europe? Depending how many patients could make it for a consultation you could vary the charges so that the more patients who booked in advance the less the charge. I know the logistics could be difficult but maybe it's an idea for sometime in the future?
It sounds to me like your
It sounds to me like your energy would be better spent on finding ways to teach your methods Matia so that more people can be helped. Do you have any ideas on when you will be branching out?
TEaching
Completely! I have thought about all of this and been round and round. But, it is all about the legality behind it and the practicality. I am trying to focus on helping the most amount of people while making my own way in the world and honoring the guidelines under which I have been asked to practice by my board. So, the teaching is on temporary hold until I figure out all of this.
Thats too bad that it is so
Thats too bad that it is so difficult. I Know CA laws are tough too and I don't know if you are dealing with other state isues being your not licensed all over. Does tht matter if they are just taking classes from you? I can see how frustrating this must be for you. I know you can't travel because of the licence issues I would think they would require you to get licenced in Europe as well as any other place you would prattice. I mean I am only in skin care and I know that is the case for me. it seems like for leagal purposes these Drs will have to come to classes held at your office? I hope that you anounce any on the board because I know a lot of healers that have become interested in your methods and the east coast is really needs help branching out. I think it is espcially bad with yeast the further south you go. I think what you are doing is so special Matia thank you for reaching out to so many people.
Europe
I would love to! I have thought about it. But, my lawyer has advised me against. I dont want to go into details about this on line. I am sorry. But, trust that I really want to do these things, and it may come to simply teaching.
Balance
Matia, it's interesting to me that your last 3 blogs have mentioned balance or imbalance.It's a real thread running through. Of course balance in the body takes many forms. Re the acid/alkaline balance: I started off swallowing the theory about IC being an acidic condition which could be healed by alkalinizing - I even ordered alkalizing drops to add to water (luckily they never arrived!). I bought Ph test paper to check my urine throughout the day and fretted when it was more acidic than it should have been. Now, I realize the key is balance!
Balance
I hope I don't sound redendant. But, I think the message of health and well being and a more comprehensive viewpoint of illness is all about that--balance. And, it is a hard message to drive home. It is hard to understand really when someone is explaining principles that you don't have enough background to truly digest. I hope that I am as effective at teaching as I am at treating. This is what I am aspiring towards. So, when I post these things that is my goal.
