Are You Suffering with Pain?

- BY FIONA TANG

Most people have pain from time to time, but if you regularly suffer from chronic pain, headaches or back pain, you know how debilitati­ng it can be. Walter Rose never had pain until the day he awoke to crippling pain two years ago. “I woke up one morning and I culdn’t even get out of bed. My back seized up and I took a pill hoping the pain would disappear. It never did,” recalls the 45-year-old. This story is very similar, recounts 51-year-old Peggy Chu. “I was in a car accident 20 years ago and my neck, back and shoulders are in pain every day. I now have Fibromyalg­ia and I get terrible headaches.” Both Walter and Peggy were sent from one specialist to another and yet the pain never went away. Finally, both wound up at Dr. Michael Ho’s clinic in Toronto. Upon arriving at Dr. Ho’s clinic, both Walter and Peggy were greated by Dr. Ho’s Health Experts. Dr Ho’s Health Experts are trained to provide lifestyle, exercise and treatment advice for the patients. “They are my direct extension and have all been personally trained and mentored by myself,” says Dr. Ho. After the consultati­on with the Health Experts, Walter and Peggy both were treated by Dr. Ho. To their surprise, Dr. Ho’s treatments and the area treated were different than what others had done in the past. After a few weeks of treatment, both patients couldn’t believe the results. “My biggest regret is that I didn’t know of Dr. Ho sooner. I honestly don’t suffer with the pain anymore and I tell everyone about the Pain Therapy System. I must have bought 3 or 4 as gifts. It’s the best purchase I’ve ever made,” exclaimed Peggy. “Treatments can provide temporary relief, but the condition usually reoccurs. The reason is because the patient is lacking the home therapy treatments and exercises in-between visits and therefore, the level of improvemen­t may not be sufficient. Back pain is also the third most expensive disorder to treat. Back pain treatments can cost thousands of dollars with no guarantees. This is why most people think they have to live with the pain,” says Dr. Michael Ho. Dr. Michael Ho is a Canadian doctor that is internatio­nally recognized for his ability to relieve patients’ pain. His specialize­d technique and devices target the cause of the pain in order to effectivel­y treat and provide long-term relief for his patients. “In order to get immediate and long-term relief, you must understand the cause of the pain. Pain can be caused by muscle tension, stress and misalignme­nts which can cause tense and tight muscles putting excess strain on the joints and nerves. This causes a pinching effect that prevents proper circulatio­n and oxygen to the muscles. When the muscles are deprived of oxygen, cramping, numbness, stiffness, swelling and pain can occur.” “Canadian clinics have all the equipment and resources to help the patients, but the problem is that to effectivel­y treat chronic pain, the treatments must be more frequent and for a longer period of time. This was very frustratin­g because I knew the patient couldn’t afford the time or money to come to the clinic everyday.” This is why Dr. Ho developed home use therapeuti­c devices that allowed patients to treat themselves at home whenever they

experience­d any pain. “After years of developmen­t, we were able to develop devices that are extremely effective in relieving pain, easy to use, affordable and you can use them at home.” These devices include Dr. Ho’s Pain Therapy System, 2-in-1 Back Relief Belt, Digestive Wellness System and his newest Circulatio­n Promoter. These products are designed to not simply mask your pain, but to treat the underlying cause of your pain. The Pain Therapy System massages tense and sore muscles and stimulates sensory nerve endings to help decrease pain, relax tense muscles and improve circulatio­n. It is a registered medical device and is clinically proven. This device is recommende­d by doctors and is one of the best treatments for headaches, neck & shoulder pain, back pain, knee pain, arthritis, fibromyalg­ia, and leg and feet pain. It’s very easy to use and you can use it in your own home - saving you time and money. Dr. Ho’s 2-in-1 Back Relief Belt works as a stretch and support belt. When deflated, it can support your back during daily activities. When inflated, it will stretch and decompress tight muscles and relieve pressure on pinched nerves. The belt gives you the same benefits of an inversion table, without having to hang upside down. The belt can be used throughout the day while sitting, walking, working and more. The Circulatio­n Promoter stimulates nerve endings through the soles of the feet and is clinically proven to improve circulatio­n, reduce muscle tension and significan­tly reduce pain. It can be used to treat symptoms of Diabetic Neropathy, Sciatica, Plantar Fasciitis, numbness and foot related pain. The Circulatio­n Promoter provides a combinatio­n of TENS, EMS and randomized frequency wave therapies, and has a detachable control unit with additional accessorie­s, so you to treat the entire body. Dr. Ho’s Digestive Wellness System is great for anyone wanting to cleanse their digestive system and help clear built up waste. It is especially beneficial for anyone suffering from bloating, constipati­on, fatigue and trouble losing weight. The Digestive Wellness Kit is all natural and is the most complete cleanse that will help you feel more energized, lighter and regular again. Dr. Ho announced today that his Health Experts will be conducting free demos of all Dr. Ho products in Markham.
