Brain matter
I have a client who had a virus when she was younger which apparently destroyed part of her brain. I have read and used scripts where a client tells the workers in their body to repair cells that are damaged and in the case of breast enhancement to actually build more cells.
The client used hypnosis a few years ago to fall pregnant after trying so many other things, she is very open to suggestion.
Has anyone had any experience rebuilding a damaged part of the brain?

Hi Tony,
Neurologists used to think brain damage was permanent and now they don't --
I suggest you find out what she wants and consider helping her using the model that her brain has a life long ability to learn, grow new connections and change....

Brain plasticity in health and disease

Abstract. Research during the last decades has greatly increased our understanding of brain plasticity, i.e. how neuronal circuits can be modified by experience, learning and in response to brain lesions. Currently available neuroimaging techniques that make it possible to study the function of the human brain in vivo have had an important impact. Cross-modal plasticity during development is demonstrated by cortical reorganization in blind or deaf children. Early musical training has lasting effects in shaping the brain. Albeit the plasticity is largest during childhood, the adult brain retains a capacity for functional and structural reorganization that earlier has been underestimated. Resent research on Huntington's disease has revealed the possibility of environmental interaction even with dominant genes. Scientifically based training methods are now being applied in rehabilitation of patients after stroke and trauma, and in the sensory retraining techniques currently applied in the treatment of focal hand dystonia as well as in sensory re-education after nerve repair in hand surgery. There is evidence that frequent participation in challenging and stimulating activities is associated with reduced cognitive decline during aging. The current concept of brain plasticity has wide implication for areas outside neuroscience and for all human life.

Harnessing Brain Plasticity through Behavioral Techniques to Produce New Treatments in Neurorehabilitation.
By Taub, Edward
American Psychologist. Vol 59(8), Nov 2004, 692-704.
Abstract
Basic behavioral neuroscience research with monkeys has given rise to an efficacious new approach to the rehabilitation of movement after stroke, cerebral palsy, traumatic brain injury, and other types of neurological injury in humans termed Constraint-Induced Movement therapy or CI therapy. For the upper extremity, the treatment involves intensive training of the more affected arm by "shaping," the application of a number of other behavioral techniques, and prolonged constraint of use of the less affected arm. CI therapy has been shown to produce large changes in the organization and function of the brain. This result points to the fact that behavior can have a profound effect on the nervous system that is greater than is generally recognized, and harnessing this brain plasticity by behavioral means has promise for the development of new treatments in the field of rehabilitation.

Excelent!
Hi TC, the problem as you know with PD is that it's not treatable, which is why it's not classified as sectionable. So the coping will tend to be you, rather than trying to change her. PD is difficult to say the least; getting the rest of your famil…
