In this article, read about MS, Dr. Zamboni's theory of and for the Liberation Treatment, and information on Zamboni's research


MONTREAL - Miracle cures are not a common occurrence but in the world of multiple sclerosis, the hopes of patients and their loved ones have never been as high as they are right now. The excitement stems from what is being touted as a circulation-improving surgical procedure that seems to promise remarkable results. With dramatic testimonials pitted against a skeptical scientific and regulatory community, the question is whether or not poor vein drainage from the head to the heart is a cause of MS and whether dilating the veins, known as "the liberation treatment," is helpful. We take a hard look at the evidence.

I recently had the Liberation treatment in Poland.
It exceeded my expectations - but then I went into it with realistic expectations.
When you look at blogs and websites it seems that all you hear are the good news stories and you know, that's great - but there is another side.
Recently I heard about 18 people who had seen Dr. Simka in Poland and had not had miraculous result and where they were angry and upset and saying some rather nasty things. During my time in Poland with Dr. Kostecki, out of 6 of us, one had no noticeable improvement, one was minimal, 2 were good and 2 were unknown.
Like I said my expectations were realistic - warm hands and feet, better swallowing, less tremors, got that and more. My leg hasn’t work since I was first diagnosed 31 years ago, I did not expect to run a marathon the next day – that would have been unrealistic. There has been no change to my leg, and I’m OK with that because I didn’t expect it to change, that’s not to say I wouldn’t be thrilled if it did get better.
I think if you go in with the right mind set, you'll be satisfied with what you get - remember even though it's not a visible change, stopping the progression of this disease is the biggest gift of all.
