Trichotillomania relief for Lacey and hope for her son

Say “hi” to Lacey. She’s another example of how balancing neurotransmitters helped a trich sufferer stop pulling hair out.Lacey has been using Dr. Chad Oler’s approach to rebalancing neurotransmitters. She was referred to us by NeuroAssist.com. “I research treatment for Trichotillomania every so often to see if there have been any breakthroughs in treatment,” she said. “Last time I was surfing the internet, I found NeuroAssist’s website and was referred to Dr. Oler because he does phone appointments. There were no providers in my state.”

She feared trichotillomania would be passed on to to her son

After suffering from trich for 28 years, Lacey was desperate for a change – and not just because she wanted the pulling to stop for herself. She also was thinking about the health of her son.

“I had constant and uncontrollable urges to pull my hair,” she said. “At times of stress or fatigue, the urges would get worse but they were always there. I’ve pulled for 28 years with no end in sight.

“I’d read that it could be passed along to kids and I was determined not to enter my 40s with this, and also not to pass along the ‘behavior’ to my 4-year old son. That would have been my worst nightmare! But, I could not stop no matter how hard I tried to wish or pray it away.”

Different approaches to help stop hair pulling – none worked

Lacey had tried many different approaches in the past. “Conventional meds did not work,” she said. “I also tried hypnosis and that did not work either.” After a brief phone consultation with Dr. Chad, she decided his approach sounded right.

She’s been using Dr. Chad’s approach since June 22^nd, and the results have been amazing. “The urge to pull is gone. I am not trying to undo a 28-year habit, but I can stop myself now if my hand wanders to my head. I really feel I am cured and I feel optimistic that I can control trich through supplements and diet.”

Lacey now has renewed peace of mind. “The best part is that I know I do not have a mental illness now – a weight has been lifted,” she said. “And I know that my son will not inherit trich, because if he has a neurotransmitter deficiency, we can address it right away. This is a miracle!”

What is Amino Acid Therapy?

Brain chemicals called neurotransmitters control many of your bodily functions, including mood, focus, concentration, memory, body temperature, appetite, cravings, sleep, behavior, pain tolerance, hormone balance and many others. Imbalances in neurotransmitter levels are often the root cause of many disorders associated with these functions.

Amino acid therapy entails providing the body the correct balance of amino acids and cofactors needed to establish proper neurotransmitter function. Each person requires a unique blend of amino acids to establish proper functioning, but once this level is achieved, most or all of the symptoms associated with that imbalance disappear.
