Messages From My Patients
Dr. Otterstrom is nothing less than an amazing doctor. She has helped my daughter, who has Cerebral Palsy and other complex needs, in so many ways over the last 15 years. She treated my daughter after surgeons had wanted to place a shunt in my daughters head. After doing a week of her treatments and her supplements I was then told by the surgeons that my daughter did not have, to have a shunt placed in her head and still today, years later, she hasn’t needed one. She has also helped my daughter becoming seizure free after being on seizure medications for almost 3 years.
Her ongoing compassion, for what she believes in and her knowledge of techniques have made my daughter’s life turn around in such a positive way over the years. She has also built positive relationships, while providing quality care, with my daughters other doctor’s after they have observed what she has done to improve the quality of my daughter’s life.
A couple of the techniques she has done on both my daughter and I are Bowen and Cranial Sacral treatments that have helped me with neck and back pains and also reduced the tone in my daughter’s body due to having CP. Her work is amazing to watch and after having her treatments you feel great.
If you want a doctor that listens to your needs and tries to help you to get better, then I would highly recommend contacting Dr. Otterstrom and work with her to put together a treatment plan to help your health improve.
From a Special Needs Mother
When I saw Dr. Otterstrom in her office, in addition to my regular visit, she did some additional testing on my thyroid.
.... I was given naturopathic care for my asthma as well as my pituitary (thyroid associated). What I noticed was a decrease in my asthma and when I do have a bout it's not as severe and I need less of my inhalers. I think that as my stress decreases and the weather improves my lung issues will end although I will stay on the supplements.
I was also given a pituitary supplement for my thyroid. The biggest change, even my husband noticed, my chills or constant feeling of cold has pretty much ended. Even my doubting Thomas husband is impressed with such a change. It took a week to 10 days for the full effect but it's most definately worked. Now hubby is planning on how to spend all that money we're saving not heating the house to 80 degrees all winter long! It has amazed me. I no longer have to bundle up, I actually get hot and have to dress down even when it's cool out. It's odd but nice not being freezing cold all the time now.
I'll be in and out as I need refills. Thanks for solving my 20 year old deep freeze!
Sincerely, Helen L.
