“While watching my father suffer from Rheumatoid Arthritis and the less-than-effective conventional, medical care that he received, which used long-term steroidal and NSAID treatments, immune suppressants, opioids and additional medication to treat the side-effects of the primary prescriptions, I resolved myself to find a better way. This emerging industry has provided me the opportunity to thrive in the pursuit of that better way.”
