Let customers speak for us
My husband who had been diagnosed with Bulbar ALS disease for 2 years at the age of 63 had all his symptoms reversed with Ayurveda medicine from naturalherbscentre. com after undergoing their ALS/MND natural protocol, he no longer requires a feeding tube. God Bless all Lou Gehrig’s disease Caregivers. Stay Strong, take small moments throughout the day to thank yourself, to love your self, and pray to whatever faith, star, spiritual force you believe in and ask for strength. I can personally vouch for these remedy but you would probably need to decide what works best for you.
I used a comfort carrier @ Disney and lost the case
Great product, communication and customer service.
Muito bom
Not sure what is going on but I’ve ordered mine last week and paid overnight shipping but still has not come until now.
Can I have one
I use this switch as a substitute for my left mouse button since I have advanced Duchenne muscular dystrophy. It works fantastic for my needs and last about 2 years before needing to be replaced.
I’m a C-5 incomplete quadriplegic and believe this helped my wife and I successfully have a child.
I cannot use my arms due to multiple sclerosis. I was using a mobile on support in OT and it made a huge difference. Using this device I am now able to feed myself and put on make up. It’s giving me some independence. I brought it into OT and it works just as well as the one I was using there.
Everything was good and fast Travel to germany
We purchased a comfort carrier to help us transfer clients into kayaks and all terrain wheelchairs. The carrier is very well made with thick material and strong stitching. It makes transfers much safer, due to the handy large handles for carrying, and also makes lifting a client easier as you can do so with a straight back! Amazing piece of equipment that will make our lives much easier and will improve comfort and safety for our clients. Thanks Inclusive Inc!
