DEPRESSION – Drug Deficiency or Nutritional & Structural Imbalances?

A recent case history is in order to set the stage for this discussion.  To begin with, one must watch titles of books and articles, as they could give false impressions.  In natural health care, we do not treat disease or diagnosed conditions by covering up symptoms.

We do not treat conditions that have people, but we certainly treat people with all kinds of diagnosed diseases and named and blamed conditions.  This difference is huge!  Many times, a person gets a spontaneous remission of a condition or many conditions by removing interferences from the body.   We are taught in Chiropractic and Naturopathic School that the body needs no help, it just needs no interference.

55 years of practice has taught us, and we have taught many, that the body gets interferences from many sources: (1) Structural, (2) Nutritional, (3) Emotional, (4) Electromagnetic, (5) Metals and other toxic substances, (6) Allergies and Sensitivities. “These Six Interferences” yield dysfunction in all parts of normal physiological processes.  This causes dys-ease in the body that many refer to as X, Y, Z conditions and diseases.

Dr Jim Parker said, we as physicians should accept no credit and take no blame for patients healing.  God (Innate) and our bodies do the healing.  We the doctor or therapist, work for God/Innate in removing interferences.  Dr Brett Brimhall and I have expanded the list of interferences that need to be evaluated and balanced through these “Six Steps to Wellness”.

This takes us to a case history of 60-year-old woman who suffered from depression, low back pain, neck pain, numbness, L5 radiculopathy, and possibly multiple sclerosis had also been suggested.  We were brought records of blood studies, MRIs of the lumbar, cervical spine and the brain.  There were many other exams from several doctors brought to our office as well.

There had been no surgeries performed but many exams from many doctors, with multiple recommendations and potential surgeries recommended of the spine.  They had her on anti-depressants.

She had a liver infection and age 32, which later facilitated fibromyalgia.  In our palpatory examination, we found almost no liver motion for normal 3-demensional movement that should exist.  She had a much larger abdomen than waist and surely has a fatty liver.  This is common is those that eat too much sugar and refined carbohydrates.  She craves sweets.  We recommended Fiber Fueled and The Diabetes Code books for reading and following.

Our evaluation demonstrated a CAT II pelvis, lumbar, thoracic, and cervical subluxations, with positive discs in the lumbar spine and cervical spine with fixations in the thoracic spine.  These were corrected with the adjustor as taught in our seminars, including the cervical and lumbar discs.

She had a physiological Hiatal Hernia, an incompetent Ileocecal valve, dropped kidneys and dropped uterus/bladder. She had two faults in the cranium. We corrected the fascia in the cranium and throughout the body and improved the craniosacral rhythm in all areas of the body with the percussor as taught in our seminars.

We lifted the Kidneys and the uterus through visceral manipulation as we teach.  We also did a rib technique to facilitate her breathing and assisting the Vagus nerve.  We did auricular therapy treatment for the cervical and lumbar spine and the Vagus nerve.  We used a cold laser in our treatment.

She tested positive to the Covid vial.  One drop of Dr Harris’s treatment vial strengthened her weak muscles.  The test vial was then placed over major organs and the brain areas.  She tested positive for Long Covid in the Liver, Hypothalamus, Pituitary, Thyroid, Heart, and Kidney/Adrenal areas.  If this seems hard to believe or understand, come, and see!  If your and not testing for and treating for long covid, you are missing some MAJOR FACTORS.

NANOBLUE (Nono technology Methylene Blue) strengthened all of the weaknesses.  Other nutrition that tested positive was Opti-Immune VRL, Opti-Heart and Opti-Thyroid.  We will add OHS digestive enzymes and probiotics.



Her depression lessoned within 24 hours.  All of her painful areas went from a 9-10 down to about a 5 within a week.  She was amazed the depression was improving. The Thyroid, Pituitary and Hypothalamus control many of the hormones and hormones control many of our emotional responses.

We can expect she will continue to improve in all areas.  There were emotional components from several periods of her life and especially now with trauma in family systems.  We used multiple emotional release techniques, again taught in OHS and Brimhall seminars.

A good question is how long did that treatment take.? The answer is one hour.  I charge $300 per hour.  This could have been done in multiple visits in 15-minute increments.  A case like this has all 6 interferences and the best results are obtained by correcting as many as possible in a single visit, since you need to put out the flames wherever there is fire, not just cover them up.  She had multiple fires burning as a metaphor.

If you find this case history interesting and you would like to know how to do all of these evaluations and corrections, please call Jason at 480-964-5198 and get signed up for our upcoming seminars.

I love helping many who had given up on ever being helped.  I truly believe we have some of the best techniques and best nutrition that exists.  OHS also has many tools to help you expand your practice and your impact.

We have set the next Certification Seminar for November 5-7, 2026.
 
See you there!
