From: Robert Rodgers, Ph.D.
Three years of interviews with People who have Parkinson's reveal ... I wish my mother could read the book I have written on Parkinson's Disease but it is too late for her. She died ten years ago from a stroke that was triggered by the interactions and side effects of taking too many medications.
There had to be another way. There had to be other decisions people with Parkinson's could make that could help make them feel a great deal better. So, I created Parkinsons Recovery three years ago and launched an ambitious plan to interview people with Parkinsons who had found ways to get sustained relief from their symptoms.
To surprise and delight, I have run across a few people who have fully recovered. I have also interviewed many people who have found therapies that help them feel a lot better. How did they do it? That is what Road to Recovery from Parkinsons Disease is all about.
Yes, you are making a difference! Recently I became a member--especially
enticed through being able to freely download your Road to Recovery from
PD. I figured one good idea was worth the price of admission. And, it
was well worth the price!
As I read the book I'd copy and paste the
important sentences to a word pad document. In re-reading the seven-single-spaced
pages of these golden glimmers I am inspired to follow through on several
suggestions--including the 21 day detox. Having rec'd such inspiration
on this collection of thoughts I will definately re-read the book, again, to
catch some missed opportunities. Thank you again for your chosen
service.

What is Road to Recovery about?
Road to Recovery is a book like no other book on Parkinson's. Other books on Parkinsons share a common theme. They tell us in the introduction that Parkinson's is a degenerative disease.
My research reveals this assertion is blatantly false. Many people do recover. I believe that anyone can recover.
Road to Recovery from Parkinsons Disease documents how people with Parkinson's get great relief from their symptoms. I also provide a rich explanation of the factors that play a central role in causing Parkinson's. In my view, a deficiency of dopamine is not the central character here.
Symptoms of Parkinson's tell us something is out of balance in the body. Road to Recovery from Parkinsons Disease explains the nature of these imbalances and what people can do to bring the body back into balance. Treatments and therapies that are effective in relieving the symptoms of Parkinsons are explained, referenced and documented.
Yes. There are many approaches people are taking that have proven helpful. How do I know this? Through my interviews!
Had a little quiet time this morning, and I started to read your book. It is extremely interesting, I had a hard time putting it down. I have been looking for some alternative ways to approach my health lately, and your words seem to come at the perfect time.
The book is written extremely well and it's formatted perfectly for a PD patient. In the past I was able to move from point a to b and then c in warp speed. I now have a sideways approach towards things.....I suppose I'm not as linear. I still get things done, but in a new way. I find your book intelligently written, yet clear and concise, which fits this sidetracked brain of mine. I'm sure PD'ers will find it a pleasure to read also, a nice flow.
I am impressed with the time, energy, and insight you have obviously put into each chapter. I bet this was your "baby" for quite some time..hats off to you! You should feel extremely proud, it's quite an accomplishment.
Blessings to you~

Why Did I Write Road to Recovery from Parkinson's Disease?
I am passionate about the support, resources and information I provide to anyone who has been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease. Why? I hold the belief that anyone - regardless of the "stage" of the "disease," can heal.
Believe me. I am not naive. I realize many people think it is not possible to reverse the symptoms. But, my research shows this belief is false. My heart tells me that the reason people with Parkinson's symptoms deteriorate over time is because they think that is what is supposed to happen. The sabotage comes through our own negative thoughts and beliefs.
I wrote Road to Recovery from Parkinsons Disease because I want to change the false belief template that Parkinson's is "degenerative." It is time to birth a new belief template, the true belief template that recovery is possible now. Once the belief template has been transformed, thousands of people with Parkinson's will find sustained relief from their symptoms. It needs to happen now.

Hi Robert:
We have corresponded before. I live in Victoria BC. My name is Linda Ralph. I have had symptoms of PD for 12+ years now.
First let me say that I just finished reading your book on Parkinson's: On The Road To Recovery
AND IT WAS WONDERFUL!!!
I loved the way you presented it in a clear, concise, easy - to- read fashion, so that even I could understand it from cover to cover. (Ha.)
At last a hands- on reference book for Parkis that is useful. Yeah!
Because of the chosen format, the wealth and variety of information, the adaptable index and contents, readers like myself, can access pertinent
information readily, or, if not, be shown alternative ways to gain such information. Good stuff.
I really enjoyed the inclusion of the anectodes of others who had/have this condition. Reading their stories, as well as listening to the guests that are featured on your radio show, have provided me with some new ideas and strategies that I would like to try. And hearing the success stories of those
who are completely free of the symptoms of Parkinson's - well - that's my kind of reading. Yes!
The Q. and A. section was personal and informative and reminded me, and probably other readers as well, of some of the same questions that we too
have pondered at some time or another along our way. Such questions are real.
Most importantly I think that your book provides Parkis and their family members with some HOPE in a society where doctors are still professing, even today, much gloom and doom to the newly diagnosed. And, HOPE where there is depression, anger, resentment, pain and lack of understanding about this
condition.
I have already lent my book to a newly diagnosed friend of mine. I just wish that I had been given a copy way back in 1998 when I was first diagnosed.
Perhaps my bout of depression, brought on by: fear, hopelessness, misinformation, and by the way my doctors treated me at that time could have been avoided. (Who knows?)
What you ARE NOT providing for those of us with this condition is a cure. And some may say,"Darn."(or maybe something a wee bit stronger.) But what I am saying that you ARE providing, is something to hold onto. Something tangible that Parkis can use to fight their symptoms right now and in the future, a reference book that those of us with the symptoms of Parkinson's and our families can pick up, look inside and maybe find an idea or two that may just work.
And dare I say maybe glean just enough information, and try just hard enough, to recover completely from this condition.
Thank you so much for this book. And thanks to your staff, who worked alongside you to help you reach your goal.
And thanks to you for all the work that you have done and continue to do for those of us with this condition.
Your are appreciated!

What does Road to Recovery from Parkinsons Disease Reveal?
- The trauma connection - Trauma has a profound impact on Parkinson's symptoms. Release the trauma. Find relief from symptoms.
- The toxin connection - There is no question about it. Toxins cause the symptoms of Parkinson's. Get rid of the toxins. Find relief from symptoms.
- The thought form connection - When we think negative thoughts, we manifest negative outcomes. Hold positive thoughts. Find relief from symptoms.
- The Trauma-Toxin connection - Have you done all the detox programs prescribed by your doctor but still see no relief in symptoms? A traumatized body retains toxins no matter how many detoxes you do.
- The Creativity Connection - Symptoms of Parkinsons slow most people down. Know what that means? Their creativity sores. They slow down enough to find their passion and true purpose.
- The Power Connection - People who recover from Parkinsons take responsibility for their health. They take action to balance their hormones. They get better.
- The family connection - Some people with Parkinsons take on a dynamic in their family that began at a time far away and long ago. Identify the dynamic and the engine that drives the illness is sent to the salvage yard.
- The experimentation connection - There are a surprisingly large number of therapies that are helping people with Parkinsons get incredible relief from symptoms. Give one or more of the therapies a trial run that are helping other people with Parkinsons. See what happens to your symptoms. I am willing to bet money on the outcome.
- The exercise connection - People who exercise feel a lot better. We don't need any more studies to "prove" this to be true.
- The diet connection - People who are meticulous about their diet eat live foods for their live body. They feel better because they eat food their bodies love.

Your book, Road to Recovery is absolutely phenomenal. I've only read the first 50 pages and I can't put it down. I had
to force myself to take a break and write you this email. During my 10+ years with Parkinson's, I have had doctors, family members,
support group friends, and personal friends insisting that with Parkinson's I will get progressively worse as time goes by until I am
eventually completely disabled.
.
How refreshing to finally find someone who tells me that that is not necessarily the case, that I have the power within me to
relieve my symptoms and to heal myself. I have always felt deep down that it is possible to get better and as you know
I have made much progress in that direction through the use of tai chi. In your book, you provide proof that it is indeed
possible through a myriad of alternative approaches, with the research and stories of people who have been successful.
You provide the information in such a positive and optimistic light, allowing the reader to experiment, discover, and
develop his own Road to Recovery that is suitable for his own individual journey. You encourage us to live life to the
fullest, using our creative powers to experience the wonderful things that life has to offer us. These are indeed the
best years of our lives.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Many people believe that symptoms of Parkinsons are caused by a deficiency of dopamine. Western medicine is well equipped to give bodies mega doses of dopamine, but the symptoms usually persist over the long term. There must be something else going on here, don't you agree?
Neurological difficulties are caused by several factors that can combine together to make matters worse. Toxins construct roadblocks to neurological pathways. Trauma crunches neurons so they do not function properly. Packaged food rips out the vitamins, minerals and antioxidants that are essential to healthy neurological functioning. Couch potatoes clog up their lymph system so badly that is hurts to walk across the living room.
The roots of Parkinsons originate in how we think moment to moment. When we delete the debris of negative thinking that has been saved on the hard drive in our brain, we have all the room that is needed to manifest balance and harmony. When we identify and remove the seed thought that underpins and sustain the symptoms, our best and highest good is served at long last.
We feel better. The food of negative thoughts that feeds the symptoms has been sent to the trash bin for good. People have told me across the globe what they are doing for themselves to feel better. Now I get to tell you the good news.
What Problem Does Road to Recovery From Parkinson's Disease Solve?
Where does a person usually turn to learn about therapies that might give them relief from the symptoms of Parkinsons? The internet is the logical choice for many people. The downside of this choice is that it is easy to become discouraged about the prospects for recovery when surfing the internet.
There are so many gloom and doom predictions on the internet about Parkinson's. You can't help but run across web sites that offer wheel chairs, assisted living arrangements and "cures" of one type of another. It is hard to maintain an upbeat attitude when all you find is help and assistance for the chronically disabled and offers from quacks. This is all yucky stuff to encounter.
Internet research is one sure way to nurture negative thought forms. When every place you visit preaches gloom and doom, you can't help but begin to believe it all.
Let me be clear about the purpose and content of Road to Recovery from Parkinson's Disease. Here is my "truth in advertising" disclosure.
- You will not find any discussion of wheel chairs. They will not be needed when you are far enough along on the road to recovery.
- You will not find any discussion of nursing homes. I believe you can remain independent as long as you choose.
- You will not find any talk about "cures." I believe it is terribly silly to think about "curing" yourself. Do you really want to become like concrete or crispy bacon?
- You will find concrete discussions about choices you can make to help yourself feel better.
- You will find a persistent theme of hope and optimism.
- You will find ways to transform beliefs about what the symptoms are really telling you about the imbalances in your body.
- You will find suggestions you can run with to feel better.
What a wonderful book. Your work is giving so many people hope and inspiring them to live richer lives in so many ways. Re previous email - I have checked with my naturopathic doctor about the cranial sacral therapy and I have written Michelle's web site for a sample of the willow balm.

Questions and Answers
What can can I do to prevent being infected by the Swine flu?

Are there any supplements to add or anything else I should be doing to help slow
progression or reverse symptoms?
What are exercise and diet remedies that would help?
What natural methods can help me walk better?
My creative writing has come to a standstill because my hands and fingers are
currently not flexible enough to type. I am trying to find other creative outlets, but I
really love to write Any suggestions?
What Helps People with Parkinson's?
Have you ever seen anyone who responds very poorly to medications?
You do not believe that Parkinson's is a disease? Do you not believe that there is
physical damage to the part of the brain that produces Dopamine? Do you not
believe that the damage has been verified by examining brain tissue from deceased
Parkinson's patients? Is the brain not part of the body?
Is the brain just "out of balance"?
Have you ever seen anyone whose primary symptoms are pain and a very
unpleasant internal tremor or other sensation?
Do emotionally healthy, well loved people, who have had the advantage of diet, get
Parkinson’s Disease?
Can you compare Alzheimer’s as a condition with Parkinson’s? Is one or the other
easier or harder to address with regard to alleviating symptoms?
In terms of addressing the two, are there things that people with Alzheimer’s can do
to get relatively quick relief, whereas people with Parkinsons can do similar things
but it takes much longer to see relief?
I wonder why some people can ingest so called toxins and never get Parkinson’s
Disease, and other people like myself do. It can’t be that simplistic. It has to be a
combination many other factors.
I wonder when Parkinson’s Disease started? I wonder if it when the industrial
revolution began, in the late 18th century, or before that?
What is the best way to determine an individual's need for specific supplements -
vitamins, herbs, minerals, etc.?
With respect to your nutrition supplements of folic acid, vitamins B6 and B12, how do
they help any further since the brain cells in the substantia nigra are already
destroyed which has caused the Parkinson’s disease?
I have been diagnosed recently and am shooting for full recovery. Progression seems
to be slow. I can’t find anywhere to compare my progression to. Any help here?
I am wondering, how I will know which exercises are the most helpful to me. Wouldn’t
this be the sort of thing a PT (physical therapist) would be needed for? Or not?
What do you know about the effects of CoQ10 and vitamin E in PD? Is it considered a
drug or a vitamin? Can you send me somewhere to get info?
How do you reduce stress?
Is there any evidence or information about the benefits of massage for people with
Parkinsons?
How do you recommend we detoxify our bodies?
I have massive family issues, stress issues, have Parkinson's Disease and am
49. Where do I start?
Have you heard of Low Level Light Laser Therapy for Parkinson’s? I am interested in
hearing if any of your followers have used it?
Have you found pain to be a significant symptom in people with other symptoms of
Parkinson’s disease, and if so, what they do to find relief?
For people who take L-dopa, it is common for them to feel worse 20-45 min after
taking the medication before finding relief?
Our bodies got sick because of some type of toxicity. At least that is my belief. Do you
agree?
How do we get rid of the toxicity that is making us sick?
My dentist did hours of research & found the most helpful therapy for Parkinsons
symptoms was using magnets & good hydration. Reactions?
My husband has been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease 7 years ago. His latest
symptoms are: burning and pain around the groin area, thighs and sometimes
backside. Any suggestions? I am ready to give up.
I am desperately depressed. What can I do about it?
I would love to listen to your radio station. How do I go about doing that?

Road to Recovery From Parkinsons Disease Helps You Help Yourself
The factors that cause the symptoms of Parkinson's are complex. I do not believe for one minute there will ever be a single solution or one "cure." A combination of therapies and treatments is needed. Which ones? At what time? These are decisions each person must make for themselves.
.
Road to Recovery from Parkinsons Disease presents an overview of a wide range of therapies and treatments that have proved helpful to other people. Use your own best instincts to evaluate the options. Decide for yourself what is the best course of action for you.
Road to Recovery from Parkinsons Disease is packed full of suggestions and ideas that facilitate recovery. It also provides a compelling argument for why recovery can happen now for anyone at any stage of disability.
The neurological system is very delicate and very sensitive to trauma, stress and toxins. When these are removed, released and ejected from the body, healing happens. If you are dedicated to finding ways you can help yourself, the Road to Recovery from Parkinson's Disease will be a welcome companion on your journey to health and wellness. .
Best of Success,
