MIRACLE RECOVERY IN PROGRESS FOR WORLD RENOWNED DOCTOR

Dr Bruno van der Elzen is a world-renowned Doctor, consulting amongst other in alternative and holistic healing for cancer patients at the LifeShine Group in Stellenbosch / Somerset West.

In February 2021 Dr van der Elzen suffered a spinal neurological compaction which resulted in him losing core and lower mobility. Soon after the unfortunate incident, Dr van der Elzen consulted on top neurologists, who basically stated that he would never walk again or have use of his right arm. He then commenced physical rehabilitation and was admitted to a care centre specializing in post-operative and physical rehabilitation.

Dr van der Elzen soon realized that the immediate environment he found himself in was not conducive for a full and speedy recovery and even though medical reports stated that full recovery was not possible, his mental strength and extensive medical knowledge told him that full recovery was a definite possibility.

Dr van der Elzen, with the assistance of other medical doctors and close friends, then immediately embarked on a very important fact-finding mission as to find a suitable establishment where he could be accommodated and where physical rehabilitation was possible within the right environment, where professional and committed people could assist in the convalescence process.

A short list of suitable establishments was compiled and it was decided that the Villa Blanca Multi-Purpose Resort in Strand, South Africa, was the most suited establishment for Dr van der Elzen to commence the important healing process.

Villa Blanca is a fairly new multi-purpose beach resort where Life Right and LifeShare villas are sold to retirees. Apart from the panoramic sea and mountain views on offer, the resort also has a boutique hotel component, normal villas for the public, a restaurant, bar, library, health & wellness spa, business centre, slow lounge and a world class care centre for elderly people and individuals requiring post-operative rehabilitation or convalescence care.

This coupled with Villa Blanca’s unique Reboot Program with partners such as Falcon Medicare and DisChem soon resulted in Dr van der Elzen’s miraculous recovery and he has reported that life in his legs and right arm has now returned and with the assistance of Villa Blanca personnel, he is now able to strengthen his core muscles and he is slowly beginning to use both legs and arms, allowing him to freely move around the luxury villa by himself whilst becoming independent and well on his way to make a full recovery.

Dr Bruno van der Elzen, quoted in his own words:

"Having had quite a nomadic upbringing across Europe, where my early days of perceiving an ever changing world were spent, I ended in Africa, mysterious and eternally appealing in its ability to mesmerize and draw one back to another time and place in relativity.

I focused on trademark building and IP with one of the leading global group of companies establishing successful ranges for one of the subsidiaries. I then embarked back on my first commitment enhancing the quality of life for others.

I utilized the vast amount of travel done across the globe, garnering insight into the lives, cultures and religions of many I met, befriended and extensively came across. Harnessing this with psychology, TCM and CBT proved a highly respected and adapt process of healing and enhancing the quality of life of those I was drawn to through divine grace.

Life in its infinite journey brought me to Villa Blanca, an oasis of rehabilitative recovery managed by true altruistic philanthropists. This after having completed the medical circuit after I lost core and lower motility due to spinal neurological compaction.

No one has the ability but divinity to predict yet in the current environment one can only foster and strive to alike the Phoenix of yore arise once more to again with divinity’s grace enhance the quality of lives around us.

Willingly we pledge not to alter yet more create the ability to forego what was and build upon that which we have at present.

Let us rejoice every day, every moment we are given to create that change which through its very energy may enthuse all touched to a greatness resounding in the world we call 'ours'.

It is to this end that Villa Blanca furthers this credo through creating an atmosphere of 'Reboot ' for all becoming part of its succinct family structure.”
