How arthritis is cured in europe: the case of mrs. kajsa andersson, smalandstenar HOW ARTHRITIS IS CURED IN EUROPE: THE CASE OF MRS. KAJSA ANDERSSON, SMALANDSTENAR
After her last baby was born, Mrs. Andersson didn't seem to be able to recover her strength. She was always tired and listless. She could hardly lift her hands. Then came the pain in her arms and hands which led to a visit to a doctor and a dreadful diagnosis-rheumatoid arthritis!
The doctor prescribed drugs and ordered her to stay in bed with warm packs around the affected joints. The warm packs seemed to relieve the pain in the hands, but now it moved to the elbows and the shoulders. Then her legs and feet started to ache. The drugs relieved the pain, but as soon as she was without the pills, the pain returned with increased strength.
After four weeks in bed with increasing disability and pain, which became more and mote unbearable, she was sent by her doctor to Spenshults Rheumatic Hospital, one of the most modern medical rheumatic clinics in Sweden. She stayed there six weeks. She didn't receive many treatments except drugs and rest in bed, plus a typical hospital diet, mostly meat, coffee and desserts.
She felt a little better when she returned home, but soon the stiffness and pain reappeared. She was unable to take care of her home and children. She felt discouraged and hopeless.
One day, her nurse brought her a magazine with an article on the Brandal Clinic and biological medicine. After she had finished reading it, she immediately went to the telephone and made a reservation.
She went to Brandal on October 20, 1957. Her condition on arrival was very bad. She could not go up the stairs to her room. She could not dress or undress herself. She was helpless and felt terrible pain with the slightest movement.
The program of treatments at Brandal started with the traditional fast on vegetable broth and carrot juice. Among the other treatments were alternating hot and cold showers, a dry brush massage, and enemas morning and evening. "After one week of fasting I felt so much better that I wanted to continue," said Mrs. Andersson. After the first week she could go up and down the stairs and take short walks outside.
After 20 days of fasting, and one week on a special lacto-vege-tarian diet, as described earlier in this chapter, and other biological treatments at Brandal, Mrs. Andersson returned to her home—completely free from her arthritis.
While having a check-up five years later, Mrs. Andersson said, "I am as healthy as anyone could wish to be. I don't remember feeling so well and being so limber and flexible since I was a young girl."
