    Dear All,

    I personally my Australian Natural THERAPY treatment regime.:pigs:

    This consists of Culture of the causative agent and then upon confirmation a pt specific regimen is devised.

    I have the outcomes to be most satisfying and certainly patient compliance is exceedingly high.

    There is however a very important consideration with regard to long term exposure to this particular modality.

    Sit on a beach in Sydney for several hours for several days. The level of UV light will be sufficient to render all pathogens DECEASED.

    Contra indications are Racial and Social Cultural due to the sensitivity of us fare skinned folk to extreme uv exposure. Also many cultures frown on exposure of body parts to other folk.:boohoo:

    Hazards are SKIN CANCER.:butcher:

    But so far results are good and it will be a while before skin cancer sets :deadhorse:in.:deadhorse:


    regards David Cooper
    Director Australian Natural Therapy Treatment:bash:
