Using reflex mechanisms for self-treatment is a very good idea. And it can be used for treatment of nearly all diseases. As any irritation is transmitted in our body in the form of nerve (electrical) impulses, it should be possible to make a universal “electrical” pill, why not? That is what Alexander Karasev was thinking about in 1972…
“As I said before I have been very pleased with your devices and so have my patients. When I arrived home today there was a message on my answerphone from one of my patients, who was waiting for surgery on his shoulder and also having treatment from me. His message was, that his surgeon had found so much improvement that there was now no need for surgery. This is not surprising to me.”
The patient noticed some hearing difficulties at the gland behind the ear on the right hand side. He was referred to hospital for a biopsy and blood testing. This didn’t show anything abnormal apart from high cholesterol and it was thought a possible to be an infection. He was given antibiotics and put on statins. Over the following 6 months when still complaining of the same thing he was given more antibiotics and re-tested, but still showing a clear test with no abnormal indications. Just an infection.
