Water Treatment and electricity arc also used.
Both will yield excellent results If carried out

But the trouble is that. although drugs and
water and electricity have their uses, and often
yield quick results. they treat symptoms rather
than causes and therefore the effects derived
from them may not always be lasting.
In order to get at real permanent results the
