Cathy Martin Grimsby VoxxLife

My story with Voxxlife

I first heard about Voxxlife a couple of years ago. My friend was having some good results wearing the Voxx HPT socks. She told me about them but I didn’t understand... I didn’t understand the power of the technology. She said the socks would improve energy and relieve foot pain and I don’t remember much else. I bought a pair for my daughter who was having leg and foot pain from riding and showing her horse. Then awhile ago, another friend started sharing experiences of how the Voxx HPT technology was helping people with mobility and walking difficulties. She sent me information about the neuro science behind Voxxlife technology. I have to admit, I was very impressed by what I saw. I immediately thought about my uncle...if this neuro technology could help reduce my 85 year old uncle’s arthritic pain, inflammation and headaches without using ibuprofen and Tylenol, I wanted to know more about it. She put an HPT patch on me that afternoon. Within an hour, I could feel a sense of calm come over me. That evening, I went to bed early as I was feeling very sleepy. I slept for 5 hours straight! That may not seem like much but it was HUGE for me. I have not slept for more than a couple of hours at a time. You see, in June 2016, I had to have a complete hysterectomy. And from that time forward, I have had extreme, on-going and constant hot flashes. Those hot flashes cycled up and down all day and all night. So I didn’t sleep. I’d get maybe an hour or two at most and then the hot flash would wake me up. Throw the covers off and then on again when my body temperature went the other way and I was freezing to death. And so it went all night long...for 3 1/2 years. So what happens when the body doesn’t get deep sleep? The fallout is that my body produced a lot of cortisol. A lot of cortisol! Cortisol blocked the absorption of calcium from my food. The result was discovered in a bone density test in September 2019. So my Vitamin D was also tested and found to be 49. Healthy Vitamin D level is 100+. This was finally discovered after 2 1/2 years of medical testing. First an EEG and ultrasound of my heart...heart size, blood flow, oxygen all fine. Ok, so I’m fine...I start a 3 month workout routine with a personal trainer...that was in Winter of 2019. After my workouts, I had less energy, not more. I was completely spent and couldn’t carry on with my normal day. After three months, I simply wasn’t getting stronger. A couple of months later, I went back to my physician. She referred me to Dr. Lam of Grimsby. He sent me for a nuclear stress test. I passed that with flying colours. As you may know, this kind of process can take months or even well over a year to sort these kinds of things out. As was the case with me...

I just thought that the low back, hip and joint pain was caused because I was 57 and so age. Maybe this is what life was supposed to be like in the back half... and from my grief in losing my husband and mother. I should not have been calcium deficient because I eat well and I’m outside working all summer so why my Vitamin D was low too wasn’t making much sense to me. Cortisol! Excessive cortisol production wrecks havoc on the body! Lack of deep sleep and the stress of not being able to cope with life as a result of not sleeping is a dog chasing it’s tail kind of condition. And that condition can and will eventually cause severe medical conditions...and all too often, the only real solution our medical community can offer is a mild sedative to help our brain disconnect, anti-inflammatories for pain and inflammation and psychiatric help for when the physical and emotional conditions become too much for us to bear. My physician is a 40ish forward thinking medical doctor, smart, truly in her profession for all the right reasons, and I am grateful for her. She has worked with me for over 5 years. She has really listened and acted upon our consultations together.

The bottom line was that I had not slept long or deeply in 3 1/2 years! I started wearing the Voxx HPT socks and at first experienced sleep of 5 hours, then a few days later 6, 6.5 hours straight. And I noticed that my hot flashes decreased drastically! Now I am getting 7-9 hours of deep sleep every night. Every single night...it’s been 10 days now! (update, now 8 weeks in wearing the Voxx HPT socks and insoles and consistently sleeping, feeling very little if any joint pain, low back pain, my tendonitis is healing as the hot buttons are gone now - a 20 year condition!). It’s going to take a while for my body to return to normal, but I know I am finally on my way! I am feeling rested when I wake up; my energy has improved; I can stand and work for longer periods of time and I don’t have that pinching between my shoulder blades and low back pain like before. So I was really, really impressed!

And I was really excited to see how it might affect my uncle. He had been really sick with a bacterial infection necessitating antibiotics and it seems that every time he gets sick, he is getting weaker and weaker and taking longer to recover. When I saw him just after finishing the latest round of antibiotics, he looked a little gray, had cold hands and couldn’t lift himself out of the chair by himself. And he complained of having a headache and that his knees were bothering him. He has degenerative nerve disease, is mentally challenged and has had several operations to try and straighten out his hands and feet which remain severely deformed. To help Giovanni walk, he wears leg braces and uses a walker and we need to walk along side him to ensure that he doesn't lose his balance which happens regularly and has resulted in multiple falls. That day when I arrived at the farm after wearing this neuro tech myself for a period of 5 days myself, I put the Voxx HPT athletic knee-highs on Giovanni and then had him walk again. He was able to lift himself out of the chair and he walked almost normal. (Look for his video in the feed on this page to see for yourself.). Later when our PSW came over, she couldn’t understand what had happened as he was responsive and alert, had great colour in his face and she couldn’t believe how well he was. Just the day before his lips were grey, he was very shaky and weak and could not get up out of the chair without assistance. She watched Giovanni as he was more alert and interacting and laughing. I was simply thinking if it could reduce his pain a little, we could reduce the amount of Tylenol and ibuprofen medication, that these socks would be worth it. But it has brought so much more! Within a couple of days of wearing the socks and to bed also, he hasn’t spoken about having headaches and little or no pain in his knees (which was an almost daily occurrence before especially when the weather would change) and the inflammation in his ankles and knees is going down. He is sleeping soundly now and without disturbance through the night (which was a regular occurrence before where he would wake up or talk in his sleep clearly aggitated and angry. That hasn’t happened since wearing the HPT neuro technology in the Voxxlife socks. He is calmer, more relaxed, more responsive, is eliminating more (see the Vagus nerve connection to the brainstem article on this page). He has needed to have no Tylenol or anti-inflammories for 7 weeks now!!!!
