Tiny electrical currents, known as microcurrents, which can generate rapid healing within the body, allowed an NFL Hall of Famer to play in the Super Bowl only six weeks after breaking his leg and tearing his Achilles tendon. Terrell Owens was that player.

Microcurrent healing was in wide use in the late 19th century. And while it worked, it was never carefully studied or documented.

With the birth of the pharmaceutical age in the 1920s, what we now call frequency medicine faded from sight.

But in the mid 1990s, those tiny electrical currents shot back into prominence through the work of a chiropractic doctor named Carolyn McMakin. And she was responsible for Terrell Owens being able to play an impossible and spectacular game in the 2005 Super Bowl.

Today, Dr. McMakin is the undisputed global expert in Frequency Specific Microcurrent technology or FSM for short. Her treatment protocols are now standard with many NFL teams, as well as NHL and NBA teams. Why? Because it WORKS.

She is our guest this week on The Art 2 Aging.

Here’s a shocking fact: 98% of dementia sufferers are being cared for at home. That’s shocking because it means that the caregiver is likely a family member, often a spouse or adult child.

Dementia victims suffer greatly and so do their caregivers, especially family members.

That’s why what Allyson Schrier is doing is so amazing. Allyson’s husband was diagnosed with a form of dementia when he was only 47. He never worked after that and Allyson became his caregiver.

She knew nothing about dementia, how it manifests, how it impacts the sufferer or how it was going to impact her and her kids.

But Allyson was not someone to throw up her hands and quit. She took the bunch of lemons that life had handed her and turned them into lemonade.

How she did that is the subject of our episode this week on The Art 2 Aging.

This week features a captivating story of a man named Tom Meschery.

If you’re a fan of the NBA, then you’ll likely remember Tom.

The Mad Russian. Number 14 for the Philadelphia and Golden State Warriors and the Seattle Supersonics. Teammate of Wilt Chamberlain.

When it comes to life stories, Tom has an amazing one. It starts with overcoming adversity as a child, rising to become a star in the NBA, staggering under the weight of a terminal illness at 65, finally meeting the love of his life and now writing mystery novels that sell well at the age of 85.

It could be a story sprung from the mind of a Hollywood screenwriter. But it isn’t. Because it’s true.

Tom was born Tomislav Mescheryiakov. His parents were Russian; his father an officer in the White Russian Army.

At the outset of the Russian Revolution, the family fled to Manchuria. But when the Japanese invaded China, Tom, his mother and sister spent the war in a Japanese internment camp before being allowed to emigrate to the United States.
