PATH Family Parents

Greetings all! Please note: We have had to make some logistical changes due scheduling requirements for Dr. Gabriel. Dr. Gabriel will be seeing PATH Patients once again at the "Baby PATH" office which is the GPM Space next to the main GPM office at 7715 4th Avenue in Brooklyn. The office that is the door to the right in the hallway; recall the "Wild Things" beautiful artwork? Patients scheduled for this coming Friday December 20th and beyond in January so far- all will be seen there. Please do not go to the 8120 15th Ave office on PATH Fridays for Dr. Gabriel for the upcoming appointments. 8120 15th Ave office is open by appointment on Fridays as usual for HBOT etc with Megan and the girls. Dr. Marla, the chiropractor, will be there seeing her patients as usual and I believe on select Fridays over the holidays.

Our Santa Sack is looking good for our upcoming PATH Friday December 20th! Woot Woot 🎉🎅🎅🌞📦!!
Very useful grabs to help you on your health mission for 2020!
Agape, Cryoball, Free Follow-up visit with Dr. Gabriel, Essential Oils, Compounding Gift Certificate, Delco Drugs Gift Cards, Post Urine Kit sponsoring, Water Pic and more!!
The BEMER will be set up in it's own lounge room so come on in for a session on us, and relax on the BEMER with the scent of peppermint oil for the holiday and health spirit! Again, that's at the 7715 4th Ave. location, Baby PATH.

Now that the last full moon of the decade is waning, gravity will be kind for a while so try to center before the new moon on December 25 starts to wax late in the day. That time will commence the first moon of the new month, new year, and new decade.....It's a good time to use that spectacular gravitational energy to YOUR BENEFIT! Recharge and find your inner health and joy.

Happy shopping and PEACE to all!

Come to the PATH office at 7715 4th ave Dec 20th between 9-3 for our holiday gift of health to you! Free BEMER session and a chance to grab out of our Santa Sack! You could grab a free follow up visit, as one of the surprises inside! There is only one "emergency" appointment slot available that day but come on in anyway to enjoy a little relaxation on the BEMER!

Also, we have many parents that do not speak English that have children that need assistance. Sponsor a child this holiday, help translate (Arabic, Russian, Chinese especially), be a source of mentor ship. There are lots of opportunities to give back, pay it forward, and help families in need.

Wishing everyone a beautiful holiday.

Fever is a sign that the bodies immune system is working! Working WITH it can assist in it's function. In practice I absolutely see that witch hazel is very effective in helping provide comfort through this natural body process.

Newsletter | Brooklyn & Staten Island, NY | GPM Pediatrics, PC

Interesting article regarding sudden death in epilepsy. Another case where the gut could be responsible for terrible outcome; perhaps could also explain SIDS

Could acid reflux explain sudden unexpected death in epilepsy? Sudden unexpected deaths in epilepsy have proven difficult to unravel. A recent study concludes that they might be driven by acid reflux.

Are you part of the MTHFR revolution?? C677T or A1298C mutations can disrupt many systems in your body, including chances of becoming pregnant, detoxification, optimal cardiac health, bleeding and clotting etc., if you are affected. The Healthy Path Foundation is having an informational evening event on February 1st in Brooklyn at the Dyker Beach Golf Club for the very purpose of spreading awareness and education about this genetic pathway! Dr Kofinas, High Risk OBGYN will be the guest speaker and presenting how this mutation can affect placental blood flow among many other aspects. Dr. Michael Gabriel will further discuss the intricacies of the B12/folate cycle and present a case study which demonstrates how the pathway can be supported and or circumvented with simple interventions. Don't miss it! Tables and tickets are available now on the Healthy Path Foundation website. The evening will start with greeting friends during an open bar cocktail informational expo followed by buffet dinner and presentations. There will be a question and answer session as well. Try your luck on a 50/50 or silent auction. If you'd like to donate a special prize of course we welcome that too!! 🌠 See you there!!!

Give the gift of health this holiday! How about a Sauna or BEMER session package! Or, consider sponsoring a check up/ first visit for someone you know who has a child or family member that needs medical attention. Call the office for a package or visit voucher. Wishing everyone a wonderful holiday! No matter what your faith, believe and good things can and do happen! P.S. If you are on the schedule this Friday to see the doctor, you will be offered a free sauna/ BEMER session. Take a rain check voucher if you don't have the time to do it that day! God Bless us, EVERYONE.
Wishing you Health and Happiness in 2019
Our Love, Elisa, Dr. Gabriel, Megan and the PATH Team

All children, especially those with special needs, should have their educational goals reviewed often. Now is the time to start looking for the 2019-2020 school year if you are not happy with the year that past. It is late (but never too late!) for those that want a change for this upcoming school year. For the parents who are very motivated- you can make a change NOW. So much can improve if you really find the "appropriate" placement. Keep reviewing their IEP goals and don't settle if you are not seeing results.

Reminder: OPEN HOUSE !!! This Friday June 15th, all day until 8PM at Egia Wellness. This is the opportunity to try out the Sauna, BEMER, and experience the Fortius Hard HBOT Chambers! Health is paramount. Nothing else matters ! Take it from me. I am the proverbial example of what the insidious, sneaking toxic environment can do to a person; changing every aspect of life. I'm glued back together with gold dust, yes that's true but the ramifications of that are monumental. Sending my best to you all for GOOD KARMA, HEALTHY DAILY CHOICES. Parents must look to put themselves in a higher order of priority. If you are not feeling well, you and the children get less health potential realized. BEMER, Sauna, HBOT, organic food all available Friday to help you get started. Think of it as your New Year Resolution come true, with Dr Michael Gabriel and the Egia team. www.Egiawellness.com

Egia Wellness We Offer Tools to Help You ​Find YOUR Path to Whole Body and Mind Wellness.

Helllloooo! Hope everyone is enjoying a wonderful weekend with their families. Some important updates: The office will be having a Grand Opening in the new location, 8120 15th Ave, in Dyker Heights Brooklyn. The dates are: Monday June 11th and then again June 15th. The new office, which is now called Egia Wellness, has everything we need to promote healing for all concerned. Hyperbaric oxygen chambers have moved to this new location and Doc has added other treatments for sweating and cellular function such as a far infrared sauna that goes up to 150 degrees and a BEMER mat. Megan is doing her usual magic running the chambers and a new HBOT tech Taylor will be running dives on an expanded schedule. Evi is back too and is handling the patient administration management with my son Chris. Christina the new PA will also be working to ensure scheduling and patient care is at optimum. Doctor will continue to see patients on his day off, Fridays. You must schedule now directly through the office. I will be handling mainly advanced patients only, as I've also taken on a role at GPM to help provide complimentary suggestions and interface for patients that require vitamins and nutritional help. Basic groundwork for parents to become as knowledgeable🌿🌠🌿🌿 as possible in between visits and further lab explanations when needed. This is bringing GPM to a ground breaking level in pediatrics. After 16 years of seeing autism and epilepsy unfold to epidemic proportions it's time for me to truly help prevent chronic medical concerns, and I am extremely grateful for the opportunity to do this work. The GPM doctors are amazing in a word. Every single one of the Doctors, NPs and the RN nurses/ medical assistants, managers and front staff, the accounting office etc want the very best for the children. If you are lucky enough to get n there- you shouldn't complain about wait times. You get what you wait for too. Egia is helping to expand out what is needed in today's world to truly help parents also feel well, no matter what part of the journey to wellness or recovery they are on, collaborating with several practitioners to help broaden the scope of the wellness interventions provided. Doctor Gabriel will announce this opening date also at the Healthy Path Fun day, which is June 9th in Staten Island at the Henry Kaufman Campgrounds. We owe him and his entire family a debt of gratitude for the amount of time, effort, and finances they have sacrificed for years to get to this point. Children can and do get better, it takes huge work and dedication but we can all live healthy, wonderful lives; it's all about every day choices that add up to either wonderful quality of life for the long term or the other road of continuing to come up against road blocks. I will be out for several weeks, I'm fine tuning some things I need to for my own health, but all questions, texting etc can still be handled without disruption through the new Egia contacts:
email:
[email protected] or
the new telephone number 718-256-2555,
Website in progress www.egiawellness.com
Office administration hours- Mon-Friday 9AM-5PM, leave a message if necessary and we will get back to you ASAP.
Office specialty hours for treatments are on an expanded schedule and can be accommodated for just about any time, most days of the week.

Happy President's Day!
We have some updates: PATH Family Center Hyperbaric Oxygen is moving to..... BROOKLYN! Yes we have found a relocation space for our chambers. Heading towards summer, there's no better time to plan your child's "HBOT dives". The space is located not far from the Brooklyn GPM/current PATH office. Email [email protected] if you'd like more information. Grand Opening info coming soon....

As far as bookings go for brand new patients or returning patients of more than 18 months, (excluding HBOT): the next available won't be for a few months. Emergencies excluded.

Regarding the flu and pneumonia: the best way to prevent is by taking basic steps- first and I always say so important- wash your toothbrushes before and after every use. Change them frequently. If you are going into crowded places be careful around others who are sneezing- flu and other respiratory infections are transmitted through the air generally in a three foot radius. if you do not have a berry allergy you can try taking elderberry but I must stress this is for those without berry allergies. Make your own by boiling elder berries with a cinnamon stick, and some grated ginger, garlic and lemon rind. Boil down to reduction, strain, add manuka honey and store in a glass jar in the refrigerator. For lower fever the old remedies work: tepid bath, witch hazel rub, calm and quiet spaces, fluid replenishment, home made Vick's for airways, (A and D ointment with a couple drops of eucalyptus oil), saline nebulizer, cool mist vaporizers, glutathione or nac nebulizer, d-hist from Orthomolecular. Higher spiking fevers over 101 can be treated with anti inflammatory meds such as dye free Motrin if your child tolerates it, and SEE THE DOCTOR. It's dangerous not to treat the fevers one way or the other. Of course there is wet sock treatment but you should SEE THE DOCTOR; there could be co-infections going on etc. Always remember your ABC's in medicine: AIRWAY BREATHING CIRCULATION.

Last: Check out NYU FACES as they are preparing for their yearly fund raiser to support epilepsy. This past week was St. Valntine's Day, the patron for epileptics. If you believe in angels and saints then you know he is watching over those with seizures.

https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.forbes.com/sites/kellyphillipserb/2017/12/20/what-your-itemized-deductions-on-schedule-a-will-look-like-after-tax-reform/amp/

The new tax bill DOES allow for medical expenses not covered under insurance. Here's some important matters though: ensure you have receipts.
The floor goes back to 7.5percent instead of 10 percent of your adjusted gross income. Meaning, the old rule. And that takes effect for your 2017 medical spending according to this article from Forbes below.
Even though they give you guidelines they don't necessarily have to accept any deduction. The burden of proof for all medical expenses or any itemized deduction is on the tax payer and, it's not likely you'll win against the strong arm, especially New York State even if your deductions are 100percent per their guidelines and submitted appropriately. They will find some loophole if they decide to pull your return. The Child Tax Credit increases. All this is good news for families. May you have a HAPPY and HEALTHY New Year. God Bless our children and give us strength to keep fighting the fight we do every day to provide the best for our precious kids. And of course.... White Rabbits!

What Your Itemized Deductions On Schedule A Will Look Like After Tax Reform With all of the focus on new tax rates after Congress green-lighted tax reform, it's easy to forget that some of the biggest changes don't have anything to do with tax rates: They're about deductions. Here's how Schedule A will be affected for the 2018 tax year.

The holidays are here!! Of course everyone is tempted by foods that are not included in our "diets". It's OK! Have enzymes and charcoal ready for those cheats that contain what you can't tolerate and try not to feel guilty. Just enjoy yourselves and let the kids do the same. Happy Holidays to all and sending our love.
XOXO

Organic does not just pertain to the grocery store purchases you make. When decorating your home be mindful of the choices you make in furnishing, bedding, paints, curtains, flooring etc. Choosing low emission flooring is especially important. How about your bed? Consider the fact you spend approximately two full days of your week lying on that. Avoiding toxic bedding and mattresses is a must. Sleep well knowing you are not inhaling harsh chemicals.

November is epilepsy awareness month. Hug a person you know that has seizures but also with love by giving them information about the ketogenic diet. Refer them to the Charlie Foundation. There are more and more children every day with chronic health concerns. Awareness of how to raise a child more naturally is key to having healthier outcomes. That's not rocket science. That's common sense !! It's all about choices. We are blessed and marked to do this work. Who knows why us? Although the work is heart rending and exhausting at times we will persevere always. WE ARE YOU. God bless and in good health ~ our love ❤️ Doc, Elisa, and Megan PS - structure changes will come soon in January 2018 so we can try to reach even more children. Info to follow in December.
