ASIAN TRADITIONAL MEDICAL TREATMENT
(中文附後)
PERSONAL EXPERIENCED —Wrote by Peter Z Pan at Montreal on May 14th 2001
My name is Peter (Zhen Guo) Pan. I am a 46 years old man who almost unable back to work based of major depression and side effects since I was under anti-depression medical treatment for five years long. I was survived by Ha Ci acupressure (magnetism water healing, skin point acupuncture, skin point acupressure and skin point with positive and negative magnetism healing), cured by Chinese and Thai traditional medical treatment, improved by Chinese meditation.Because of the major depression illness, in 1997 June, I was under anti-depression medical treatment by Montreal Jewish General Hospital at Psychiatry Adult Mental Institution. I was hospitalized about six months, when I discharged from hospital, I was acting like a robot; my mind works very slow and I can’t do anything. With years of follow up anti-depression medical treatment, I lost sex functional, I got a sickness with my testicle and starting to have sleep problem. With a complaint, doctor changed medication.
During five years of the anti-depression medical treatment, my depression didn't cure, and the worse thing is I started to have side effects: the side effects lower my body movement, reaction and concentration. I was unable to concentrate to do anything, unable to continue my English tutor class; and have to quite the French language course I was taking. Doctor changed medication for me again, but the side effects even appeared more stronger—in 1999, I have to go back Emergency to have a short to stop the suffering from the side effects. From beginning two months went to once, then one month once; two weeks once, one week once; then one week two times, three times…The side effects made me lost a hope to continue my life since the suffering made me feel better to die than to continue to live in this way. By the fact, the anti-depression medical treatment didn't really cure my depression, instead it even made me feel more depressed because of the side-effects; from end of 1998 to early of 2000 before I start Asian traditional medical treatment, three years I suffered with sleepless, constipation besides of other side-effects. The worst effects caused my blood pressure all moved up to my head, which I just feel any time my head will detonation...
All of my family relatives and friends were lost a hope, thought I was finished, and I would be like this forever for rest of my life, even myself believed that one day I will just end in this way. Lucky I have a sister who is a doctor in China, with her support, I tried different ways of Asian medical treatments—finally I found Ha Ci acupressure. Follow the instruction; according the worse of my illness, I add more time and more term of the treatment. I made my own plan:Quit western anti-depression medication completeIn the morning: Exercise in the park, drink one liter of magnetism water, 20 minutes of acupressure with meditation, 15 minutes each of acupressure for sleepless and lost sex function, to have breakfast; read book, out door activity, to have lunchIn afternoon: Drink one liter of magnetism water, go to swim by walk, out door activity, read book, to have supperIn evening: Watching TV or listening music, drink one liter of magnetism water, 20 minutes of acupressure with meditation, 15 minutes each of acupressure for sleepless and lost sex function, lie on bed for sleep with counting number and meditationAs most people know, anti-depression medicine is drug. Once you were on, it’s hard to quit and you will rely on more and more. If you try to quit, then you have to take more quantity of anti-depression medicine to keep in balance. It took me a week to get over with, and two weeks later, seem it was in control; after one month, my friends saw me and they told me “you are back in life”; after two months, I found myself got back as normal.I realized I should let my body self recover system re-function again since the recovery I got was not by my body own system, so the next step I have to do is find a way to let my body system works by itself. I was educated in China, and I hear so many stories about people tried a lot of medical treatments after words lost a hope, but they magically got recovered by Chinese meditation, so I gave to myself a chance to try.Through by then, I got cure of lost sex function complete in Thailand, and I got remarried last year that we already have a new baby girl, I got a massage diploma from Thai traditional hospital in Chiangmai during the treatment; I signed a contract with Ha Ci company became a representative of North of America of Ha Ci company products. If not the law of welfare system, I should get cure complete of my illness and side effects, and I would be earlier to quit welfare system support and back to re-work again. So up to today, I am continually using Ha Ci acupressure to healing and practicing Chinese meditation to improve my health condition.During the Ha Ci and meditation practicing, I found a lot of benefits with my life: I am became a more reasonable, more calm, more understanding loving person; I am became a more giving person without naïve act; I am know better what I am doing and why I am doing for; I get better relationship with my relatives and I am able to let everyone in the family getting more smooth with each other; I am able to concentrate to do and manage things, and my mind getting more open, see things more clearly; my energy is increasing, and my brain get better function—just one example, my English get improved without a tutor and self study…From what I found, Asian traditional treatment is the best solution for certain illnesses and could be covering large area to benefiting us. My mean is not against modern medical treatment—some are necessary done by this way. But I believe a long term of modern medical treatment might not work properly especially that possibly harms human’s own body protection and recovery system—caused the system lost function or made the system disorder.Asian traditional healing and practicing also is the good thing to let we live with a healthy body; it’s mentally, physically benefiting us to let we have better condition to facing all we meet. It’s also benefiting with health care and welfare support system since less people will rely on it. Let’s working on it to enjoy what we deserved.Contact: Peter Z Pan E-mail: ucma1668@gmail.com
亞洲傳統康複療法的親身體驗
作者:潘振國(Peter Z. Pan)
2001年5月14日於蒙特利爾撰寫
我叫潘振國(Peter Z. Pan),當年46歲,曾因重度抑鬱症接受五年之久的抗抑鬱藥物治療,幾乎無法恢複工作能力,身心瀕臨崩潰。幸而我靠“哈慈”磁化水療法、皮部穴位針灸、皮部穴位按摩、正負磁力療法等中泰傳統醫學手段,並結合中國靜坐冥想,才得以康複,重獲新生。
1997年6月,我因重度抑鬱症被蒙特利爾猶太綜合醫院精神科收治,住院近六個月。出院後,我的狀態宛如“機器人”,思維遲鈍、四肢遲緩、毫無生活能力。長期服用抗抑鬱藥後,我逐漸出現性功能障礙、睾丸腫脹、嚴重失眠等症狀。多次投訴後,醫生才更換藥物。
然而,在這五年當中,藥物不但未能治愈我的抑鬱,反而帶來了更加嚴重的副作用:反應遲鈍、注意力渙散,完全無法集中精力學習,我不得不放棄原本正在進行的英語輔導班和法語課程。副作用越發嚴重,1999年我甚至必須頻繁前往急診室注射鎮靜劑來緩解痛苦——最初每兩月一次,後來發展到每月、每兩周、每周,甚至每周兩三次。
這些副作用幾乎讓我對人生絕望,甚至覺得“死了比活著更好”。可以說,抗抑鬱藥物並未治療我的抑鬱,反而讓我更加沮喪。自1998年底至2000年初,我飽受失眠、便秘和各種副作用的折磨,最嚴重時,我感到血壓衝上頭頂,仿佛隨時都會爆炸。
家人和朋友幾乎都對我失去了信心,認為我這一生就這樣結束了,甚至我自己也開始認命。幸運的是,我在中國的妹妹是一名醫生,在她的鼓勵下,我開始嚐試多種亞洲傳統療法。最終,我找到了“哈慈穴位按摩法”,並根據自身病情嚴重程度,製定了加大治療強度和頻率的個人康複計劃:
康複計劃:
完全停用西方抗抑鬱藥物
**早上:**公園鍛煉,喝1公升磁化水,20分鍾穴位按摩配合靜坐冥想,分別針對失眠和性功能障礙各做15分鍾按摩,早餐、閱讀、戶外活動、午餐。
**下午:**喝1公升磁化水,步行去遊泳、戶外活動、閱讀、晚餐。
**晚上:**看電視或聽音樂,喝1公升磁化水,重複20分鍾按摩與冥想,分別針對失眠和性功能障礙各做15分鍾,然後躺床上數數靜坐進入睡眠。
眾所周知,抗抑鬱藥具有成癮性,一旦開始服用就很難戒斷,且常常越吃越多。戒斷期極其痛苦,但我堅持下來。一周後逐漸適應,兩周後病情穩定,一個月後朋友見到我驚訝地說:“你回來了!”兩個月後,我自己也感受到自己已經恢複正常。
我意識到,康複應當依靠自身免疫和恢複係統的再激活。西藥的“控製”並非真正的治療。下一步,我開始嚐試通過中國靜坐冥想來喚醒自我係統的自然修複能力。中國傳統文化中早有很多真實案例,許多病人在嚐盡各種療法後,通過靜坐得以神奇康複。
我在泰國完成了對性功能障礙的治療,並在那裏重新結婚,育有一女。在治療期間,我還取得了泰國清邁傳統醫院頒發的按摩師資證書。我也與哈慈公司簽訂協議,成為其北美地區產品的代表。若非福利政策限製,我早已完全康複,重返社會工作。
直到今天,我仍堅持每天進行哈慈穴位按摩和中國靜坐冥想來持續改善身體狀況。
身心改善成果
通過這段時間的自我修複,我收獲巨大:
-
思維更加理性、冷靜、明智;
-
性格更加溫和、富有愛心與同理心;
-
懂得給予但不再盲目;
-
生活目標更清晰,行動更有方向;
-
家庭關係改善,親人之間更加和睦;
-
注意力集中,事務處理能力提升;
-
頭腦更加清醒、思路開闊;
-
精力更充沛,大腦功能明顯改善;
-
英語水平在無老師指導下顯著提高,自學效果明顯。
結語:
從我的親身體驗來看,亞洲傳統醫療體係在許多慢性或心理性疾病上的療效遠超想象,值得大範圍推廣。我的本意不是否定現代醫學——某些疾病確實必須通過西方醫學手段治療。然而,長期服藥往往削弱人的自然免疫和恢複係統,甚至造成係統紊亂。
傳統亞洲療法(如中醫、泰醫)與冥想靜坐,不僅促進身體康複,還能增強心理素質,讓我們更從容地麵對生活中的壓力。同時也能減輕醫療係統和社會福利負擔,讓更多人回歸正常生活。
讓我們一起行動,恢複健康,擁抱本應屬於我們的生活質量。
