SPINAL ALIGNMENT INNOVATION REVEALS NEW BENEFITS

SONIK Treatment Solution for Post-Neurosurgery Imbalance
By: Russ Allen, correspondent for HealthTech Reporter

Around the end of 2019, my wife, Kaye was diagnosed with a non-cancerous tumor of the brain, the size of a golf ball. It was determined that surgery was needed. The tumor was sitting right on top of her Pineal gland and resulted in a number of different symptoms. A neurovascular surgeon from New York (Dr. Ng Lin) conducted an MRI guided surgery and was able to successfully excise the tumor without any apparent damage to the brain. 

After that, she had a number of issues with balance and her gait, suspected to be a rare, poorly understood disorder called MAL DE DEBARQUEMENT (MDD) – an issue in the vestibular system that results in a phantom perception of self- motion typically described as rocking, bobbing or swaying. The symptoms tend to be exacerbated when a patient is not moving, for example, when sleeping or standing still- appearing like motion sickness. (1)The inventor of the MRI, Dr. Robert Damadian conducted a post-surgery Fonar MRI while she was sitting up (upper left image) and was able to monitor the brain. He detected a certain amount of seepage of cerebral fluid into the lower left posterior portion of the brain, which he surmised caused Kaye’s MDD symptoms. 

Kaye and I sought a non-surgical solution to this disorder.  We identified the work of Dr. Aslam Khan, the inventor of the SONIK treatment solution as our best option. In discussions with Dr Khan, we learned of the benefits of Dr. Khan’s medical solutions technology utilizing the SONIK medical device which uses sound waves to mitigate the many issues from spine injuries.  A precursor to the SONIK device has been in the clinical market for over 20 years and continues to support the orthopedic community with compelling results(3). It targets the core issues of spinal-related conditions that often lead to painful structural, muscular, and neurological challenges.

In Kaye’s case, she was treated with the device (emitting the pulsed impulses through the device stylus) which is a scientifically validated, non-invasive treatment methodology(2).

We were hoping for an improvement in her gait and balance, which was achieved. An additional unexpected benefit also emerged. The condition observed from the pre-treatment FONAR MRI by Dr Damadian, which displayed  the seepage of cerebral fluid did not appear in the MRI scan by Dr Lin that was done post SONIK treatment. 

Through to date, my wife feels great. Her imbalance symptoms have been resolved. She functions normally; she hikes, she rides bikes daily and goes up and down stairs regularly.  She remains careful with stairs.

Our experience and assessment of the SONIK treatment and Dr. Khan’s concepts of SONIK medicine remains a remarkable find.  Our confidence in Dr. Khan also continues to grow as clinics are expanding throughout the globe- from Canada, the US, Saudi Arabia, Germany, Taiwan, Qatar and more.  As a supporter of breakthrough alternative and functional innovations, this technology continues to inspire exploration.  Having the privilege of experiencing this innovation, my wife and I both fully embrace and endorse the expanded research on the use of this impressive science which Dr. Khan’s clinical leadership had pioneered.

EPILOGUE

8/13/2024- Dr. Aslam Khan and Dr. Robert Bard meet for the first time in person to explore collaborative partnerships in support of breakthrough therapeutic technologies.  Dr. Bard, the founder and patriarch of clinical imaging validation through advanced (quantitative) 3D Ultrasound imaging and key principal researcher for IHRC (Integrative Health Research Center, NYC) has expressed major interest in supporting  the expansion of Dr. Khan’s Sonik solution and the vast potential applications of the SONIK technology.  Dr. Bard helped pioneer the use of ultrasound technology in the paradigm of image guided therapies for cancer care and tumor management.  His commitment to advance the expansion of point-of-care ultrasound globally and his support of the non-invasive (non-surgical) movement in medicine aligns with Dr. Khan’s philosophies for treatment and pain care.  “To explore where science and medicine has yet to boldly go where no one has gone before- like the TRICORDER, (a Star Trek Reference) its  where we need to be.  Cutting into the body would someday be a thing of the past… and the impact of energy medicine like this is truly the future that we are finally driving right now”, says Dr. Bard.
