There are many theories as to how to remove a tick that has become imbedded in the skin. We now know that most of them are incorrect, since the majority of ideas actually cause the tick to regurgitate (vomit) more bacteria into your body as you try to extract them.
Some of these erroneous tick removal methods:
Putting essential oils, nail polish or remover, or any other substance on the tick to agitate it and cause it to pull itself out, all of which cause the tick to vomit before backing itself out of the skin.
Using tweezers or the fingers, gripping as close to the head as possible. This sounds good until you attempt to do it without crushing the head, which often leaves the ticks mouth piece still embedded in the skin and still squeezes more juices into the your body.
Holding a match over the back of the tick is an obvious mistake as it definitely causes the tick to vomit from the agitation.
Here is the best way to remove a tick and why it works the best. To understand why this works (more…)
Your skin is the largest eliminative organ. Healthy skin should eliminate two pounds of waste acids every day. Skin brushing before dressing, and before every bath, will remove the top layer of dead skin that would otherwise block the effective elimination of toxins through the skin. You can look closely at the iris (colored part of the eyes) in the mirror and tell how well your skin is eliminating. If you can see a darker ring around the very most outer edge of the iris, you have what is called a scurf ring. Seeing a scurf ring always indicates that your skin is not eliminating toxins well, and it is being reflected on the iris of the eye. It is not a disease of the eye but simply a reflex sign of an overload of toxins at the level of the skin. You can observe your eye and watch it improve as you progress with your detox protocol.
You will need:
Natural Fiber Skin Brush with a long handle. (NEVER USE A SYNTHETIC BRISTLE BRUSH — these can cause an adverse electrical charge on the body.)
As its name implies, this bath can be very healing, especially in people with low vitality, low body temperature, and low reactivity. It is indicated for individuals with poor, slow, or no response to appropriately applied healing efforts. Often so much effort is given to detoxification that the body becomes strained and tired from being constantly challenged. This bath should be used at least once a week to assist (more…)
The Hydrogen Peroxide & Epson Salt Detox Bath is one of my absolute favorite bath therapies. It is the first thing we do for our own family whenever we feel we are developing a cold or illness. Not only does it detoxify the body and relieve pain, but it seems to also stop many infections quickly and help the body regain balance. Through medical studies, this therapy has been shown to relieve pain that did not even respond to narcotic medicines. (more…)
The question of whether I recommend Flu shots and Swine Flu shots have been so frequently asked of our staff that I thought it would be good to visit the topic and tell you our stance on this issue.
I cannot say it strongly enough!
No microbe can replicate out of control in an optimally healthy body!
When you go outside in the winter you can see your breath, like steam coming out of your mouth. This is happening all the time, year round!
So you are breathing in any number of viruses every minute of every day without getting sick!
You are getting “vaccinated” every day by all of the viruses you breathe in and ingest with your food and drinks…without all the formaldehyde and mercury and gene-altering garbage in vaccines. (see the hyperlink below to see what is inside these vaccines)
Is it enough to “boost the immune system”? Not anymore.
The invincibility of the body against viruses has more to do with the overall integrity of every aspect of your body, mind, and spirit than it does with the immune system.
Officially and for the record, I am not a supporter of the Flu vaccinations for anyone! I would recommend that everyone participate in year-round preventive treatments by a doctor trained in American Biological Medicine and Circuit Healing so that the body enjoys optimum health all year long!
Instead of attempting to rehash everything you should know about how crappy the Flu vaccines are I am going to give you a link to Dr. Mercola’s excellent article on the matter: Here
Also, watch the video below.
How to Beat a Virus:
• If you are going to use herbs like Echinacea to boost your immune system, remember that herbal formulas with synergistic combinations of various herbs work better than taking a single herb. We recommend and sell two different Echinacea-type formulas… Echinacom™ and Echinacom-C™ by Energique, Inc. These are good formulas to take for a week and then take two weeks off so that the body doesn’t adapt around their ability to stimulate the immune system.
• Our doctor’s primary “Go-to Formula” when any flu-like symptoms first happen is Virogen™ , which is incredibly effective at facilitating and boosting the body’s own energetic fields against a broad spectrum of viruses. If Virogen™ does not seem to kick it then adding or switching to:
• Microbojen™, is possibly the most powerful formula on the planet for providing the energetic information the body needs to repel the broadest number of types of viruses and microbes.
• One of my absolute favorite ways to restore your body’s control over any Flu is to take an Epsom Salt/Hydrogen Peroxide Soaking bath. This bath is cheap and very restorative and relaxing! Use 5 cups of Epsom Salts (Magnesium Sulphate salts) with 64 fluid ounces of 3% Hydrogen Peroxide mixed into a warm bathtub of water. Soak for at least 20 minutes. You can usually get both of these products from the grocery store. You can do this bath two or three times a day if you desire. It is also very good for any aches and pains from any cause.
• Diffusing into the air of your home and workplace therapeutic-grade essential oils of almost any type is one of the most powerful ways to prevent viral infections from getting started in the first place. As you and your children breathe the wonderful fragrances into the body the oil droplets in the air are drawn into the lungs and sinuses. Many oils have been shown to be stronger than any know anti-viral drug on the planet! Use any oil you have, but I like to diffuse the blends of oils made by Young Living Essential Oil company, called RC, Thieves, Citrus Fresh, and during the holiday season I alternate between Christmas Spirit blend and Peace and Calming. RC has a lot of types of Eucalyptus oils and Thyme which are very good for promoting the health of the upper respiratory tract. Thieves’ legendary blend of oils contains the formula found in the judicial archives in England as the blend of oils that ultimately prevented people from even getting the Bubonic plague! University tests have shown this blend to be highly anti-bacterial, and anti-viral. (Call the Hansa Center to purchase one of the best oil diffusers our doctors found up in Vancouver, BC and brought back to the U.S. so that you are not wasting your oils and money!)
• When the days are gray and cloudy get to a good quality tanning bed and “catch some rays!” UVB light from these beds is perfect for converting your cholesterol into pro-Vitamin D! Don’t stay in the tanning bed long enough to even turn pink. Stop before you start to turn pink. Vitamin D is actually a hormone in your body and should not be taken as a pill since it screws up this conversion from Cholesterol to 7-Dehydrocholesterol, ultimately to “Vitamin” D. Keeping your body’s own pro-Vitamin D high is a very important part of staying well this winter.
• I cannot tell you how very important it is to live, eat, and breathe the concepts of living in high integrity within the body, mind, and spirit. You and you alone determine your body’s chemistry. Your hormones, neurotransmitters, and immune system, and energetic defenses are shifting to match your heart’s instructions.
Every post here and on my blog post that I have written has been to teach you how to maintain the output of your heart, in spite of any circumstance, and to teach you how to use your Divine light and love to get more of what you, with great enthusiasm DO want.
You DO want to manifest perfect health and joyful interactions at all times!
Be that everywhere, and in every moment, and you will see everyday miracles of all types.
AromaGuard® Deodorants are the first natural deodorants formulated exclusively from therapeutic-grade essential oils and all-natural ingredients. They provide a pleasant and safe alternative to commercial deodorants and are free of propylene glycol and toxic aluminum salts.
You may not be aware, but one of the products that each of us use daily is quite toxic – deodorant. If we are to reach optimum health and beat the illnesses that knock on our door we must reduce the toxins entering our bodies.
Most conventional deodorants contain aluminum chlorohydrate, parabens, propylene glycol, triclosan, TEA, DEA, FD&C colors, and quaternium 18, among other toxic chemicals. Check the label on your deodorant.
Aluminum is not only a common skin irritant; it is also a poisonous neurotoxin that accumulates in the body. The World Health Organization has linked exposure to aluminum to Alzheimer’s disease, with higher frequencies of deodorant use corresponding to higher risks of developing Alzheimer’s. Abnormal accumulation of aluminum has been found in the brains of people with Alzheimer’s disease, and when aluminum is injected into the brains of laboratory animals, the animals develop a neurological disease similar to Alzheimer’s.
Cancer researcher Philippa Darbre, PhD, of the University of Reading, says evidence is mounting that the aluminum-based active ingredient in antiperspirants can mimic estrogen in the body.
“Lifetime exposure to estrogen is the risk factor which is tied most strongly to breast cancer,” says Dr. Darbre. “I stopped using these products eight years ago.”
Parabens also increase the risk of breast cancer my mimicking estrogen, according to some experts. Researchers have found parabens inside autopsied breast tumors. Dr. Darbre comments on the study: “Parabens are used as preservatives in thousands of cosmetic, food, and pharmaceutical products, but this is the first study to show their accumulation in human tissues. It demonstrates that if people are exposed to these chemicals, then the chemicals will accumulate in their bodies.” Parabens can also cause allergic reactions or contact dermatitis.
Propylene glycol is as a humectant, which means it keeps substances from drying out, and it was originally developed as an anti-freeze. Today it’s used in paint, dog food, floor wax, and you guessed it, many deodorants. Propylene glycol is neurotoxin known to cause contact dermatitis, kidney damage, and liver damage. In the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for propylene glycol, the National Institute for Occupational Health and Safety warns workers to avoid skin contact with the toxic chemical, and yet millions of people apply it under their arms everyday. From the MSDS: “May cause eye irritation, skin irritation. Chronic exposure can cause gastro-intestinal disturbances, nausea, headache, vomiting, and central nervous depression.”
TEA and DEA are hormone disruptors that are known to form carcinogenic (cancer-causing) chemicals. In 1997, the U.S. Toxicology Program found that repeated skin application of DEA causes liver and kidney damage in animals. TEA can cause contact dermatitis.
FD&C colors are made from coal and have been shown to cause cancer in animals; they also often cause allergic skin reactions. Triclosan can be absorbed through the skin and causes liver damage in some lab animals, and quaternium compounds are the number one cause of preservative-related contact dermatitis. About 5% of the population is extremely allergic to quaternium compounds, which can cause asthma-like symptoms and even respiratory arrest when inhaled.
Young Living deodorant is the product I recommend for use as it’s natural and non-toxic, and can be purchased online. It’s time to reset the clock, change habits for the good, and choose wisely.
It is interesting to watch the media and the government officials shift their story about how contagious and widespread the Swine Flu H1N1 virus is from one day to the next.One minute they are saying how threatening it is then the next how we shouldn’t worry.
Should you worry?Yes and no! You can see with the economy already in a critical place that the last thing the government wants is for the “worker bees” to panic and the gross national product go down even more!So the reality of these contagious viruses being a threat to everyone is real.
The reality is that in the same way as we have all seen the “smoke” of our breath on a cold day, that moisture is always being breathed into the air even though we cannot see it on a warm day.Each of us are breathing out waste from our body and passing gas and breathing in the same from other people’s body.
Every single thing we touch, from door knobs to pencils and pens to tables and chairs to your shoe strings are contaminated with all manner of bacteria and viruses.
The problem is compounded when we shake hands which puts you in contact with everything that person has touched, their face, their nose…
So all that said, isn’t it amazing that so many of us are perfectly healthy in spite of all of the cross contamination that is continually going on?This is because microbes (Bacteria and viruses) are not the full story.Just having a virus in your body does not mean you will get sick.
A healthy body, mind, and spirit is naturally impervious to any infection.
Prevention is the key!
The follow points are the primary issues that must be addressed:
Maintain cleanliness of your hands – Nothing does this better than NanoDerm Lotion!It is a non-toxic, natural product that creates a greaseless, odorless, hypoallergenic barrier on your hands like invisible gloves.It lasts eight hours and actually kills the MRSA strains of Staph infections as well as viruses that come in contact with your skin.You cannot stop touching things, but this gives you the confidence beyond washing your hands that you are safe to touch anything!NanoDerm lotion will not wash off even with aggressive hand washing.
Control Air Quality – The best way to do this in an office space, home, or car is to diffuse therapeutic-grade essential oils into the air.I recommend using the purest grade of oils you can find, such as Young Living Oils (available at Hansa Center just call us). The best oils would be the proprietary blends of oils by YLO called R/C, Thieve’s blend, Egyptian Gold, Exodus II blend, and Transformation blend.Single oils might include Lemon, Thyme, Eucalyptus, Palo Santo, or Idaho Balsam Fir oil. These oils will kill microbes on contact in the air and when you breath the diffused oils into your lungs it kills the bugs in your body as well with no toxicity to normal tissue…something you cannot say about any over-the-counter spray disinfectants.If you wear a mask to work then adding a few drops of these essential oils to the mask will increase your protection dramatically!
Keep the surfaces of your space clean – I recommend using the Young Living Oil essential oil spray Thieve’s Disinfectant for any surface you want to be clean.
We are here to help YOUR body get to & stay in its most optimum state. All of the blog posts & interviews in the past & that will be posted in the future are to help inform you how to achieve optimum health in body, mind & spirit.
Of course, having done this for 14 years, treating thousands of people from all over the world, I’ve heard some of the same questions over & over.
Here are a few of them with answers:
What is unique about Hansa Center?
We use testing that allows us to determine sources of imbalance instead of just symptoms, so we can custom tailor a treatment program to fit your body’s very specific needs. We believe that God created the body to heal itself, and we give it the tools it needs to restore balance and rid itself of illness.
Have you helped people like me?
We have helped people with nearly every condition, from rare chronic diseases to maintenance care. We do not specialize in any one illness, but instead we facilitate balance in the body as a whole.
What is your success rate?
Our doctors usually expect that patients begin to see improvement in some areas within the first two days of treatment, and usually in many areas within two weeks. They also coach patients on lifestyle, mindset, and spiritual components of health and healing, and provide strategies for continuing to maintain whole-person health after your treatment program is over.
Will I feel worse before I feel better?
Removing toxins from the body does not have to make your symptoms worse. Since our testing and treatments allow us to balance the body as it heals, patients do not experience difficult reactions as you may have felt with many other treatment programs.
Why come for two weeks?
It has taken your body a long time to get sick. Our doctors use a two week program of concentrated treatments to get the body jump-started back towards healing.
What will I do in the clinic for two weeks?
Patients visit Hansa Center every weekday and spend 4-5 hours in the clinic. This usually includes a 60-75 minute office visit with one of our doctors, using therapies to aid in removing toxins and building the immune system, and taking supplements tested for your body by the doctors. Every case is unique so this varies for each patient somewhat.
Where should I stay in Wichita?
Most patients stay at CrestHill Suites, this hotel provides many amenities and extras and gives a special rate to our patients.
How much does it cost?
Your treatment program will vary depending on your body’s needs. We estimate that patients spend $700-900 per day during the two week program. More details on this are in our New Patient Packet. (Contact our office for this: info@hansacenter.com)
What payment methods are available?
Payment is due at the time of service. We accept checks, cash, and major credit cards – Visa, MasterCard, Discover, and American Express.
Do you accept insurance?
Upon request, we can provide you with codes to file to your insurance for reimbursement. Our New Patient Packet contains a reference sheet so that you may ask your insurance company about coverage before coming if you wish.
Will I need to return after the initial two week program?
This will be decided by the patient and doctors together, but often the doctors recommend that patients return 4-8 weeks after their initial program for a week of follow-up care. Phone consultations with a doctor are also available for follow-up.
Can you give me advice over the phone so I don’t have to come to the clinic?
Our doctors are available to make recommendations in a phone consultation, however, what they can do over the phone is very limited compared to coming in for treatment. To schedule a consultation, we need some case history forms completed and a credit card on file. Consultations are billed $100 for a 30 minute call. Call our office to schedule.
Is there a written protocol I can follow at home?
The Perfect-7 Treatment and Detoxification Protocol® is our best recommendation for at-home treatment. Read it in Dr. Jernigan’s book, Beating Lyme Disease 2nd Edition: Living the Good Life in Spite of Lyme, which you may purchase on our site here.
I’m ready to come for treatment. What next?
Call our office to schedule your program! 316-686-5900 You will be asked for a $350 deposit to reserve your appointments, and we will send you a New Patient Packet with further details and case history forms to complete.
We can help with other questions you may have as well.
So there you are….a brief overview of the “nuts & bolts” of coming into seeing us so that we can help you obtain your most optimum health.
“Are you sure you have seen someone as difficult to treat as I am?”
“Have you treated many people with my condition?”
“Why should I come to your clinic?”
Almost every person that contacts our clinic asks these same questions. They are great and important questions, since almost every one of these people have already been to literally twenty or more of the most celebrated doctors.
“I have frustrated every doctor and they don’t know anything else to do for me!”
We love treating these types of cases…our “Humpty Dumpty gang” the people whom “all the king’s horses and all the king’s men couldn’t put back together again.”
The healing philosophy of American Biological Medicine and the seventy or more different healing techniques that have been rolled into one functional and dynamic system of natural healing is so unique and so profoundly powerful that we thrive on these types of patients.
If you are suffering, and tired of drug-induced illusions of health
(the masking of the symptoms or the pushing around of the symptoms by pharmaceuticals) then let us help you!
You have suffered enough!
It is time to commit to doing what it really takes to heal your body, mind, and spirit completely…NOW!
During these two weeks you are undergoing a full hour to hour and a half of hands-on, one-on-one time with one of our doctors everyday!
We are coaching you, training you, teaching you as we are working as fast and diligently on your body as possible.
Many people and doctors cannot comprehend what our doctors could possibly be doing for one hour every day for two weeks!
It is because we specialize in understanding the complete picture of interconnections of the every tissue, gland, and organ of the body.
And since we do not just specialize in one aspect of the body, such as a Cardiologist, Infectious Disease Specialist, or Rheumatologist, we have a lot of work to do, literally addressing every part of your body during that two weeks of intensive treatments.
“How long do you think it will take before I start noticing a difference?” Our standard answer is “We are bummed out if you are not feeling better in some way after your first treatment!” Yes, we achieve improvement that quickly even in the most stubborn of cases often enough that we do expect rapid results!
The most astute and celebrated physicians cannot heal even the simplest paper cut, much less serious diseases, like cancer, Lyme disease, M.S., strokes, or chronic fatigue!
Neither can we, however, with our pure philosophy of what our goals of treatment are…to identify anything interfering with your body’s natural ability to heal itself, and provide the body with the corrective building blocks and information it needs virtually any illness will just fall away as the functional integrity of the body is restored and maintained!
After your two week intensive, our doctors will give you a protocol for continuing your healing after you return home.
We are here for you when you are ready!
This is our passion and our mission to change the practice of medicine from simply creating Drug-Induced Illusions of Health to the truest and the purest philosophy of healthcare on the planet…………the restoration of your body’s integrity and function so that dis-ease by any name falls away!
I pray you all find great health and prosperity!
Dr. David Jernigan

My body complained as I sat on the hard, wooden bleachers waiting for my daughter’s basketball game to start. The gym was cold from the doors being constantly open with parents and students coming in to watch the game. All that began to fade for me as I was drawn deeper into the new book I was reading.
I must have appeared quite odd, a bespectacled, bearded, very tall man reading a book at a basketball game. I would feel eyes on me and glance up every now and then and catch people looking at me or whispering in my direction. I didn’t care, the game hadn’t started yet anyway, not to mention the fact that it was going to be a long night since several other teams were going to be playing that night as well, so I settled in as best I could on that hardwood bleacher and dug into the book.
I set the book down on the bleacher beside me to watch the game. At half-time a woman next to me commented, “That is an odd book for you to be reading!” I loved that it caught her attention and stimulated this opportunity to share the wisdom in these pages.
“It’s a great book!” I replied. “It is filled with so much wisdom on how the game of life can be played more successfully and more joyfully.” “Oh,” She replied, “I will have to buy a copy. Where can you buy them?” Barnes and Noble have them I assured her.
The game started up again for the second half. I smiled to myself, feeling quite proud of the success of my plot to get others interested in reading the book. In some odd way I felt like I was doling out wisdom in the tradition of the wise, old, BagLady in the book.
As a teenager I used to always ask elderly people what they had learned in life that could help me. I remember being disappointed that none of the elderly people thought they had gained any wisdom they could pass on to me. I would have given anything to have been able to sit on the park bench next to this elegant BagLady and have her reach into her purse for some of the many note cards of wisdom therein and have her take me under her wing!
Haven’t you ever wished you had some part of the past to do over again? Don’t you wish you could ask someone older and wiser for advice? I definitely have!
And that is why I would recommend every man and woman read The BagLady’s Guide to Elegant Living!
