"In fact, for general acute problems, I had used the Sonotron for sinusitis, running nose, sore throat, coughing which disturbed patients from sleep, toothache, and I find that it is no more of a thrill now. And something like migraine headache — well, this type of headache I consider it as acute. When a patient with this comes to me with pain, that’s the time I treat. But subsequently, I haven’t really done much in the sense that I didn’t ask them to come and repeat the treatment. So once they were relieved of their headaches, I asked them to go back to their GPs, and start having their normal treatments."
"As for chronic problems, I’ve been getting lots of patients coming in for these, cases like Osteoarthritis in old age which we know there is no treatment. When I gave them Sonotron Therapy, they find almost immediate relief which is also prolonged in action. For some of these patients, the signs show that they were cured of their problems but I am not really sure. They had been pain free after the treatments and are still pain free now, after several
years."
"Low back pain is quite commonly seen. I’ve encountered these kinds of cases; some were acute but most of the time, they were chronic. And when I said chronic, it is not mere months, it’s sometimes years. And some of those patients had undergone surgery."
"And, in fact there were 2 or 3 cases which had undergone spinal surgery but still had pain after the operations. And with Sonotron Therapy - after 5 treatments - they were pain free."
"In fact, one lady a teacher, who had operations twice, and was going for a third time, came to me. I gave her 5 Sonotron Therapy sessions. After that she went back to work. Prior to that, she had been on non-paid leave for 6 months. I met her about 3 months later and found that she was still pain free, which is a kind of satisfaction many a doctor would be pleased to experience."
"Drugs tend to have lots of side effects when you use them for a long time. That’s the reason why I bought the machine. I’ve been treating patients suffering from joint pain with pain killers. And they’ve been taking the painkillers for years. The side effects were worse than their original problems. In fact, the patients started off with knee pain, but ended with gastric pain and finally renal failure."
"In fact, I had one lady from an old folks home, who had not only pain in the spine, hip, knee and for years had been taking pain killers. When I sent her blood for a laboratory test, I found her renal function was down. And she also had gastric pain. She was on all sorts of treatments. So when she came to me, I just cut down all the medications and gave her Sonotron Therapy. Now she’s back to her normal state. She’s able to walk and left the old folks home in Old Klang Road to return to Penang."
"Talking about these old people for 3 times I’ve been called to their houses to treat their relatives. They had been bed-ridden for months, some others for weeks. I gave them Sonotron Therapy. And to their surprise also, those patients were able to walk
again."
"The last patient was from Kajang. She was about 84 or 85 years old. And, she was not able to stand and walk by herself. And, every time she wanted to go to the toilet she had to drag herself along the floor. Her·family thought she was going to die very soon. So I was called to treat her. I used the Sonotron. And surprisingly, during the last Hari Raya, the grandson called me to say he was surprised to see his grandmother walking and washing dishes. They thought she was about to go. Being able to do all those is a nice thing being a doctor. Actually, that’s why you become a doctor."
"One day I was called to a house in Kajang. The husband had been paralysed and was wheelchair bound for the previous 3 years. His wife had been taking care of him. Then, during the month prior to meeting me, the wife had knee problem and couldn’t stand. So, they called me to help. I went to the house. I gave about 5 sessions of Sonotron Therapy, once every other day. At the end of a week, the husband could stand up. After 3 years of being wheelchair bound, he could walk by holding the wall. And, the wife could also stand with a walker. That’s the nice thing, as we could help both rather than one."
"We were actually called to treat the wife, but we noticed that the husband was wheelchair bound. And, from my examination I knew that he could walk again because he was not paralysed or something like that. He had joint pain at both the knees and the hip. So, we treated both of them and both walked again."
"For the last one and a half years, I have been more interested in cases that could not be solved by standard medical treatments, in the sense that medically, we were not solving the problems."
"I remember presenting a seminar at the University of Malaya. I mentioned about my poor results in treating stroke patients with the Sonotron. That was based on my patients in 1996. But in 1997, I modified the technique, ie , my method of treatment on that category of patients. I had good results in the sense that out of 9 patients that I’ve treated during the whole of 1997, 7 walked again. Only 2 failed. For the 2, one was already 2 years with stroke, and the other was basically non-responsive."
"Stroke is a medical problem which is major. It usually involves half of the brain. And, we really do not know how much involvement. It may also involve the patients emotionally and mentally."
"So out of 7 patients, 3 of them were back to normal life, in the sense that there were no residual deformities or paralysis. In fact, one patient a teacher, is now able to drive all over town."
"I think Sonotron is helping them to recover faster. In all these cases, I could see movements within the 1st or 2nd treatment session. From a grade zero, they became grade one which was something that also astonished me at first. And by the fifth treatment, usually they would be able to stand up and walk with a cane. Though they were weak, they were walking."
