When lifestyle changes and nutritional supplements don’t work for insomnia?

When lifestyle changes and nutritional supplements don’t work for insomnia?
April 20, 2018Dr. Steven Zodkoy, DCLatest Newsinsomnia
Severe and chronic insomnia is a common issue in my office.  Lifestyle changes and nutritional supplements are usually enough to correct this problem and win me the “thanks’ of many patients but there are those that need extra ordinary measures to restore their sleep. Learn about nutritional support and NET at Monmouth Advanced Medicine.
These options usually require an alternative physician to evaluate and demonstrate:
  1. Alpha Stem or CES ultra (www.cesultra.com) are portable medical devices about the size of a phone. Insomnia and anxiety sufferers, they often go together, use ear buds to send a low voltage electrical wave across the brain.  This low voltage wave, you do not feel the wave, promotes the production of alpha waves in the brain.  Alpha waves calm and relax the mind and body so a person feels less anxiety, more focused and able to sleep.  The best part of these units is that they help to restore the mind-body natural rhythm.   These units have been around for decades, FDA recognized and are completely safe.
  2. Pineal breathing exercise is extremely useful for those with insomnia and adrenal fatigue/burnout.  The pineal gland is found at the base of the brain and is responsible for keeping us in synch with the earth’s seasons and day-night changes.  Many with adrenal fatigue/burnout, stress and lifestyles that keep them indoors to much lose their natural synchronicity with the earth and the seasons. An Applied Kinesiologist doctor (www.ICAKUSA.com) can test to see if you have lost your natural synchronicity with the earth and the seasons.  The test involves testing your muscle strength in the light and in the dark and noting any changes.  A person with abnormal findings can do a breathing exercise to restore their normal synchronicity.  The exercise requires a person to breath in while using their thumbs to separate the upper palate, 5 breaths is enough.  This exercise is done first think in the morning and at night.  An alternative to the exercise is to take a pineal glandular nutritional supplement.
  3. Phenibut is a nutritional supplement that is not often recommend because it is so powerful.  Phenibut is a form of GABA that goes directly into the brain and promotes extreme calm and relaxation.  There is some controversy over whether it is safe or addictive.  I have used it with my patients for years with no harmful side effects.  The key, like everything else, is to use it in moderation.
  4. Neuron-emotional technique (www.netmindbody.com) allows a trained physician to relieve emotional stress trapped in the nervous system.   Many people aren’t aware of these hidden stressors or only realize them at night which leads to insomnia or night terrors.  NET is an excellent way to reduce the stress on the nervous system which may be causing anxiety, depression and insomnia.  NOTE – NET is one of the main techniques I use to help veterans heal from PTSD which almost always involves insomnia.

A true treasure. A doctor, and his staff, that not only cares, but is an expert in his field. I travel from Northern Virginia to New Jersey once a month to see Dr. Zodkoy. A small price for the outstanding and knowledgeable medical care he provides.

Dr. Zodkoy is amazing. He has helped me where an orthopedic doctor and physical therapy has failed. He uses chiropractic techniques, applied kinesiology and nutrition in his treatment plan. He truly works wonders. I have never felt better. You are treated like family from the time you walk through the door. Marie and Christy are always welcoming and pleasant. If I could give more than 5 stars I would.

I and my entire family see Dr. Zodkoy before anyone else for anything from sports injuries to ADHD to stress related issues. What he does works. He listens and catches things that lead to solutions. He explains what the cause of issues is, how he will treat them, and how long the treatments will take. I have referred dozens of people to him and every one has thanked me for the results they got from his treatments. I can't recommend him highly enough.

I cannot say enough about the treatment that I have received from Dr Zodkoy. I was referred to Dr Z by a friend and I am glad that I made that first appointment. He was able to diagnose my problem immediately. I was truly impressed with the results that soon followed my treatments. I would highly recommend Dr Z based on his experience, knowledge and his ability to get results.

I've had back problems for a very long time. I have 3 herniated discs that have caused me pain for over 15 years, sometimes severely so. After seeing several back doctors/surgeons, one who said surgery was the only option, this scared me away after hearing stories of things getting worse after surgery. I was referred to Dr Zodkoy who has since been a miracle. I no longer have the everyday back pain. I can pick up my kids, go golfing, stand for 14 hours a day which my job requires, and live a normal life. I have been so thankful for his therapies and would recommend him to anyone.
