Re: Longtime Enthusiast First Time Member Thanks everyone for the welcome.
Again I will reiterate my newness to forums and posting. I should probably ignore the comments made by Marshall and Dr. Doan, however, I feel a rebuttal is necessary. I thank everyone who has welcomed me, and I don't mean to insult or disrespect Marshall or Dr. Doan. I believe their comments were made with the best of intentions.
To begin, if you read my original post, I stated that I am a neuroscientist. This means I conduct scientific research in order to understand normal and disease processes in the brain and nervous tissue. I focus on the health related aspects, meaning I research the disease states and how we can treat them. I am currently researching retinal degenerative diseases, not diseases of the auditory system. This does not mean, however, I am wholly ignorant of the auditory system.
Marshall, there is no cure for tinnitus. This company is trying to make a quick buck.
Dr. Doan, a thoracic thrust or other chiropractic manipulation cannot treat hearing loss.
I sincerely believe in alternative medicine (acupuncture/pressure, chiropractic, herbal, and homeopathy) but, weak, nonsensical, and/or fraudulent claims do nothing for establishing these as accepted and real treatments.
To make my rebuttals more manageable and topic specific I have split them into two separate replies. |
