There is no longer a silver bullet when it comes to MRSA infection treatment. Antibiotics are becoming less and less effective against MRSA infections every year as the bacteria become resistant to even the newest ‘last resort’ antibiotics. Natural antibiotics must be considered and used instead of, or in conjunction with antibiotics in order to achieve the best results with these dangerous and often deadly infections.

It is clear that the standard MRSA treatment or Staph treatment regimen using antibiotics can no longer be relied upon exclusively. Staph and MRSA are both serious infections that will likely require some type of treatment on your part. MRSA is a type of Staph infection that "generally" is more dangerous because it is more resistant to traditional antibiotics and harder to kill with disinfectants. However, general Staph infections can also be dangerous if not treated promptly and properly.

Fortunately, there are many safe and effective methods for handling MRSA and Staph infections beyond the scope of traditional antibiotics. Some of these so called “alternative” methods are successfully used today by mainstream medicine in France, Germany and other modern countries. And, many “natural” antibiotics have been used for thousands of years against bacteria.

Many alternative Staph treatments and MRSA treatments have the added benefit of helping counteract the negative side effects of antibiotics and boosting the body’s immune system.

 

MRSA Treatments and Staph Treatments can be divided into two primary groups:

• Western medicine (also called allopathic, traditional, conventional, or mainstream medicine)

• Alternative medicine (also called natural, holistic, naturopathic or integrative medicine)

Each of the above approaches to MRSA infection treatment has its benefits and drawbacks. The table below summarizes some of the key differences between these two treatment paradigms.

Western Medicine

Alternative Medicine

Best option for surgeries, trauma care and acute life threatening illness Effective at quickly masking symptoms to provide immediate relief Widely available and covered extensively by insurance Treats symptoms effectively, not the underlying cause Poor record on healing chronic diseases Treatments are often invasive and have undesirable side effects Treats the body in parts, not as a whole Medical schools are structured into organ-specific departments, with little relationship with each other

Focus on proactive measures Treats the cause of illness and disease, not just the symptoms More cost effective Methods target whole body, as an interrelated system Generally safe with minimal side effects when used according to directions Best option for chronic diseases Requires more personal education and self direction because it is not taught to most doctors and most patients never hear about it Can take longer to see results because addressing the root cause is more involved than simply masking symptoms

 

Western medicine is widespread, universally available and is the standard of treatment in the Western world. Western medicine is the cornerstone of the healthcare system in the USA and is strictly controlled and monitored in the U.S. by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and other organizations. The American Medical Association (AMA) ensures that Western medicine is the focus of all medical schools and helps to perpetuate the paradigm of Western medicine.

Alternative medicine, on the other hand, is not widely used or understood in the Westernworld. Medical doctors are not taught alternative techniques in medical school and most alternative treatment approaches are not understood or indorsed by Western medicine.

Despite widespread ignorance and misunderstanding of Alternative medicine, a growing number of people in the Western world are leaning about alternative techniques and using them to great success with MRSA infections and other illnesses.

There is a growing public awareness of the benefits of alternative medicine and more and more medical doctors are taking it on themselves to learn alternative techniques and offer them to their patients.

Naturopathic Doctors (ND) are specifically trained in the use of Alternative medicine and can be a valuable resource to those who wish to use alternative MRSA infection treatments.

Naturopathic medicine focuses on finding the cause of illness and then stimulating the body's ability to heal itself - thus resolving the illness and addressing the underlying cause.

 

Integrative Approaches - Combining your Traditional Treatment with Alternative Medicine

Most medical doctors have limited knowledge of alternative methods and are not likely to be supportive of these methods or to prescribe them. Some states allow a physician to legally provide any natural therapy that is requested by a patient, which can be beneficial if your doctor is open and willing to work with you.

Many antibiotics now being prescribed are ineffective against MRSA. Many more antibiotics in the future will also lose their effectiveness against this resistant bacteria. It is critical to your long-term health that you learn about and use natural and alternative approaches and combine them with mainstream approaches to maximize your success in treating these dangerous and tenacious infections. MRSA and Staph still succumb to most natural antibiotics being used to today. The key is to find safe and effective sources and to get guidance from a professional for your treatments. Ideally, you would work with your Medical Doctor and an Alternative Medicine practitioner like a Naturopathic Doctor.

It may take some effort on your part to integrate alternative treatment approaches along with your doctor's mainstream approach. But doing so will make a tremendous difference in resolving your MRSA or Staph infection as well as saving you time, frustration and money in the long run. After you've read Chapters 3 and 4 of MRSA Secrets Revealed, you'll learn all about these two approaches and how to best integrate your treatment approaches so you can get better faster.
