"If you have fibromyalgia you are extremely ill. You are NOT crazy. 

As a fellow sufferer who is now in remission I feel honoured to be able to teach this healing protocol to others."

Cherie Pash, Clinical Naturopath

 

You may have been told that whatever you have is un-treatable or that your symptoms are all in your head. People think you're a hypochondriac and doctors may not want to handle your case. Or you may have been over-medicated by well-intentioned health care providers who wanted desperately to help you. You may be having trouble getting refills for medications that make your life tolerable. You may be in danger of losing your job and your relationships. You may have fallen victim to those who are making billions of dollars a year off those desperately searching for something, anything, that will help..."

 

FibroFix is a revolutionary treatment that has been developed by Clinical Naturopath Cherie Pash. It incorporates the Guaifenesin Protocol, developed by Endocrinoligist and author of What your DR may not tell you about fibromyalgia,   Dr Paul St Amand . Over time this protocol can reverse all the symptoms of fibromyalgia.

It is a tried and tested, scientifically based program that works.

Fibromyalgia 101

Fibromyalgia is thought to be a genetic condition caused by mutations of several genes.

Fibromyalgia often runs in families effecting many more women than men, 80% compared to 20%.

Dr St Amand, who wrote What your Dr may not tell you about Fibromyalgia believes that Fibromyalgia is caused by the inability of the kidneys to excrete excess dietary phosphate.

Phosphate builds up to toxic levels right through the body and brain.

Phosphate has a chemical buddy called calcium. Where one goes the other follows.

Calcium is the mineral that causes muscles to contract and spasm.

The toxic levels of calcium and the muscle contraction caused leads to many of the symptoms of fibromyalgia.

Symptoms are showing up earlier now due to the toxins in our environment that switch bad genes on.

You can get better!

The Guaifenesin Protocol addressed the ROOT PROBLEM caused by the gene mutation- TOXIC LEVELS OF PHOSPHATE and CALCIUM

Guaifenesin acts like a siphon at the kidneys to siphon out the excess phosphate.

This takes TIME and PATIENCE. 1-2 months for every year you have had symptoms.

When phosphate levels return to normal so do calcium levels and the contraction of the muscles and tendons relax.

You can’t change the genes but you can support and help the body to return to a normal state.

Removing all PLANT PRODUCTS from the products you put ON your body is IMPERATIVE.

Fibromyalgia- 9 Steps to Recovery

Introduction:

The very first thing to say is that this treatment is NOT a quick fix or an instant miracle cure…there is no such thing for chronic health issues. You have a serious, debilitating, chronic condition that has been developing for many years and will take your 100% commitment to reverse. If you think you will get better in a few weeks…please THINK AGAIN! Your condition took a lifetime to develop so it may take 1-3 years to reverse fully depending on what stage you are at now. Please don’t be discouraged by this…there will be many improvements on the way that will start to and increasingly make life more bearable until you may be fully well again.

​

The 9 Steps

The journey back to wellness starts with these 9 steps.

The following steps will be taken one at a time and at your pace. DON’T GET OVERWHELMED. I HELP YOU EVERY STEP OF THE WAY!! Everyone is different so I work one on one with each person to make sure we are addressing all the problem areas. Some steps may not be needed but from personal and client-based experience the following steps are very relevant to most people with Fibromyalgia.

 

STEP 1. Make an appointment for your one on one consult with Cherie to have your medical history  and current symptoms taken. Fibromyalgia almost always presents with other conditions and they need to be addressed as well.

Book online at www.vibrantlifeclinic.com.au or call on 0427 664 273. I can do phone consults and post everything you need if you are not able to come to the clinic in Launceston, Tasmania due to distance or disability.

 

STEP 2. Get your tests done if indicated. These are optional but very helpful.

These are all ordered through the clinic.

FoodFit 500 food sensitivity hair test $279 , MTHFR gene blood test $69

 

STEP 3. Start your supplements prescribed at your first visit and read start to read the book  ”What your doctor may not tell you about fibromyalgia” by Dr St Amand Edition 4.

Your supplements are individualised to you and will be continued until your deficiencies are corrected. The book will help you understand the science behind the treatment and you can read lots of others experiences of getting better.

 

STEP 4.  Remove salicylates from your body products

This step is incredibly important as salicylates from plant products will block the action of the medicine and will stop you getting better. I explain this in detail to each person so that you understand what to look for and what brands to buy.

 

STEP 5 Start your Guaifenesin tablet.

You know you are at the right dose when you experience a moderate worsening of symptoms. This tells you your kidneys are so busy excreting the excess phosphate that they are full to capacity. The phosphate that is waiting to be excreted is redeposited around the body and it feels like a flare.

 

STEP 6.  REMOVE HIGH LECTIN FOODS and THE FOODS YOU ALLERGIC TO.

Start to remove high lectin foods and any foods that you have tested as allergic to. These foods are increasing your level of pain and inflammation. Take it one food group at a time and at your own pace.

Your food allergy test will tell you what foods are making you sick and increasing your pain so you can remove them for a period of time.

 

STEP 7 HEAL YOUR GUT

A Candida gut infection, intense sugar cravings and poor blood sugar control often come hand in hand with Fibromyalgia and must be treated. You will undertake a treatment to kill the candida yeast, heal the gut lining and repopulate the gut with good bacteria. Your gut is a major source for inflammation that spreads through the body increasing pain.

 

STEP 8. ERADICATE YOUR PATHOGEN LOAD

Viruses, bacteria, parasites and fungi can be having a devastating impact on your immune system, nervous system, endocrine system and energy production. Glandular fever or the Epstein Barr virus is highly implicated in the development of Fibromyalgia and as such needs to be deactivated if possible.

 

Step 9 PERSERVERE, DON’T GIVE UP, KEEP GOING…..this treatment works but you must stick with it through thick and thin!

 

Final word from Cherie

This treatment gave me my life back. I honestly believe I would be in a nursing home or worse now if I had not found this treatment and stuck with it. I have almost 20 plus years experience following the treatment I learnt about in the book and have perfected it and rounded it out with the many things I have learnt from my 5 years of study to become a Naturopath. I have helped many family members and clients fully reverse their fibromyalgia and return to a full and active life that is pain free

 

Q and A

Q1. Who is this treatment protocol for?

A: Anyone who has been diagnosed with or suspects they have fibromyalgia. Anyone with chronic fatigue, malaise, post exertional fatigue, muscle and joint pain, brain fog and more.

​

Q2. How often will I need to come and how much does it cost?

A: Every 4 weeks is a good space between visits to let the treatment do its work and to let time pass. Its very important to take things one day at a time. Your initial visit is $225 for 1hr 15mins. Your follow up visits are $145 for 45 mins and you will need to come for approx. 6 months

​

Q3. How much do the treatments cost per week?

A: Your supplements and medicines will cost about $50-$60 per week depending on each persons symptoms.

​

Q4. How long will it take till I start feeling better?

A: Everyone is different, some people will be more severe when they start so they may take longer. From my own personal and clinical experience people are feeling somewhat improved after 1-2 months and at 6 months have notable improvements in fatigue and pain. By 12 months most people are getting on with their lives and going back to doing many of the things they used to do.

​

Q5. Does this treatment work for everyone?

A: Yes! If you follow the rules, check for salicylates in all your body products so you dont block the action of the medicine and be consistent with taking all your supplements. All of my patients have gone on to have much or fully improved health. Me too!

My Fibro Story
This is me...a Tassie girl born and bred who has always been interested in medicine and health. My symptoms started as a child with deep growing pains below my knees that saw me crying from pain in bed at night and frequent headaches. Once when I was 12 my neck totally seized up and I couldn't turn my head either way for days. Fibromyalgia was unheard of back then so these symptoms were overlooked as nothing more than childhood problems. My teens were pretty good but I did tire easily and at 18 I got the dreaded Glandular fever that took me out for three months. In my 20s I had three babies and the fatigue started to increase. I was exhausted and had a couple of nasty bouts of anxiety and panic disorder especially after my first baby. I loved being a mum so soldiered on trying to understand why I was so tired and why I often felt very low...not depressed but just blah! I had a lot of neck problems that led to headaches and migraines. I had my final beautiful baby girl at 31 and felt pretty good. But by the time she was one I was having many health issues and found out my thyroid was failing. After a year of hyperthyroid spurts then hypothyroidism the fibromyalgia finally showed its ugly head. It just started with very sore shoulder joints. I woke up one morning and my shoulders were just so sore that I thought I must have hurt myself during the night. Within a very short time I was in agony all over. My thighs were so effected I could hardly walk and the neurological stabbing, burning, numbness, tingling started in earnest. I thought I had MS and went to my holistic GP. He was wonderful and after tests we realised it was NOT MS but Fibromyalgia. A top physician in Hobart confirmed the diagnosis and told me to walk 40 minutes a day and take fish oil and get on with life. I was so shocked at his apparent lack of knowledge and understanding and I could have slapped him in the face...I had barely the strength to walk from my car to his office and I just knew I had to find my own solutions. Thank goodness for Dr Google. Very quickly I found information about Dr St Armand and the Guaifenesin Protocol. I had a strong confirmation I was onto the right answer when I read about others with childhood growing pains. It had to be the answer! I ordered the book online and some Guaifenesin and just started the program. I had no help or support. None of my doctors knew anything about it or were interested in learning. The first month was hard going. I lay in a hammock on our deck for hours trying to cope with the extra pain that comes as you start to reverse. After about 4 weeks I had my first good day. I drove to St Helens for a family holiday, went out for a meal and even had a dance with my children on the dance floor. My husbands’ joy and relief was priceless. He had been so worried...he would drive home from work wondering if I had died or would die soon I was so ill. Slowly and steadily I started to get better. Everything the book said would happen as I reversed did happen. I just took one day at a time coping the best I could. I let myself have one cry a day from sheer exhaustion, pain, worry and sadness but refused to give in. I had so many plans for my life and I wanted to be there for my children. The months turned into years and I could do more and more and more. I worked on other health issues like a candida infection and food allergies. Everything I tried sped up my healing. Learning about the Paleo diet and faithfully following it was the last piece of the puzzle for me as I realised how much inflammation many foods cause and how I could reduce my pain by not eating them.
Today...more than 20 years later...I have little pain and I can work full time. All of my many fibro symptoms have gone. In 2016 I completed 5 years of study and am now a fully qualified Naturopath. In October 2016 I opened my own clinic and run it myself helping all my clients to regain their health.
My goal is to get the information out there that there is a treatment that really works to reverse Fibromyalgia. So many are told there is no cure and no treatment that is truly effective but I am living proof there is. Thousands of others have reversed their fibro as well.
The journey is ABSOLUTELY worth the destination.
Please...just give it a try...if I can help and support you in any way I would love to. Call 0427 664 273 to book a discovery call or to make an appointment at Vibrant Life Clinic in Launceston, Tasmania.
Sincerely, Cherie Pash
