  • Suddenly, diagnosed with late stage Neurological Lyme Disease, Ben Ahrens spent the next three years in a constant up-and-down struggle, trying to rid himself of this crippling illness. His eventual success led him to make discoveries that would revolutionize the way he views health and now approaches life.
    Ben Ahrens grew up in New York City, received his early education at the Rudolf Steiner Waldorf School, and graduated from Pennsylvania’s Lafayette College with a B.A. in Philosophy.
    He then began his professional career working with athletes and post-rehab patients as a corrective exercise and performance enhancement specialist. His weekly newspaper column, “Fitness Matters” in the East Hampton Independent and his directorship of East Hampton’s popular children’s summer surfing camp, earned him a reputation as a strong advocate of health and fitness.
    Now he is the Executive Vice President at Innovative Medicine where he dedicates himself to improving healthcare through the advanced application of quantum physics to medical science.
    This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx

    Thank you for the inspiration. Been using alternative therapy for years, and the two clinics that I've gone to in order to treat Lyme/mold emphasize neuroplasticity. Your story validates that, and gives me the motivation to keep going after recent discouragement. Thank you again...

    I have a friend who is going through the same struggle with Lyme disease, and she has been to a dozen doctors who are also looking for that one thing. She's at the point that she feels she'll never get better, and the worst part is she's in a "support" group of Lyme disease patients who feed her hopelessness. I'll share this with her since she doesn''t believe me when I tell her she can heal herself.

    I usually don't comment in a negative tone, but, this is extremely deceiving. He went to a place in NYC that costs ALOT of money.

      @Kathleen, I’ve never heard the information you’re putting out. He tried a LOT of things but nothing helped him until he, without knowing it, retrained his nervous system, which was stuck in fight or flight.
