My husband and I love breeding horses and watching them grow to their full potential. I’ve been passionate about sharing Bemer for over 7 yrs. to help benefit humans and horses. I learned about this technology from my internist, Dr. John Williams, MD. While working in the Cardiac Cath lab, I learned well the significance of adequate blood flow to the smallest vessels who have the biggest job of delivering the Oxygen and Nutrients and removing the waste products which are causing the inflammatory processes and hindering healing. contact info: website: ddearman.bemergrou12.com email: 3bardranch@.gmail.com Cell: 405-714-5564 Facebook: facebook.com/donnadearman
