Father Of Parkinsonian Tremor : William Gowers


William Gowers was one of the great nineteenth-century British doctors brought the National Hospital in Queen Square international prominence. More gifted visual interpretations written descriptions, Gowers offer one of the most memorable descriptions of parkinsonian tremor:
"The movement of the finger metacarpophalangeal joints phalyngeal is similar to that for which the Orientals beat their small drums."

  1. I was diagnosed with COPD four years ago. For over two years, I relied on inhalers and several other medications, but unfortunately, the symptoms kept getting worse. My breathing became more labored, I experienced frequent coughing fits, and my energy levels started to decline quickly. Last year, out of desperation and hope, I decided to try a herbal treatment program from NaturePath Herbal Clinic. Honestly, I was skeptical at first, but within a few months of starting the treatment, I began to notice real changes. My breathing became easier, the coughing subsided, and, incredibly, my energy returned. It’s been a life-changing experience. I feel more like myself again better than I’ve felt in years. If you or a loved one is struggling with COPD, I truly recommend looking into their natural approach.
