POSTNATAL DEPRESSION

Following the birth of my son I was diagnosed with post natal depression. I attended my GP when my son was six weeks old feeling stressed and anxious. I was feeling as though I was not thinking straight or logically. The smallest decisions I had to make were becoming difficult.

I attended Annette for three sessions of kinesiology over three weeks and found a great reduction in my levels of anxiety. The horrible feeling of not being totally present was gone and a more clear thinking pattern replaced it!

My body felt calmer and I felt more able for the challenges of motherhood. I also took on board Annette’s advice on maintaining a good diet, drinking lots of water and increasing my serotonin levels (happy hormone) by getting out walking more. I also replaced my many coffees in the day with chamomile teas!

On Annette’s advice I also listen to relaxation tapes which I find excellent. I felt the sessions were really beneficial and I am currently maintaining my exercise and healthy living regime. I also found Annette’s tips for a more holistic way of living to be of great help to my overall well being.

CARPEL TUNNEL SYNDROME

I’ve had really bad pain, weakness & often numbness in both my hands and wrists for almost 12 months. I work as a data entry operator so for the best part of the week I’m working on my keyboard which I’m sure doesn’t help. The pain in my wrists would be unbearable at times and would often travel up both my arms. I attended my GP who diagnosed my condition as Carpel Tunnel Syndrome. I was then prescribed a dose of anti inflammatory medication and some pain killers. Two months later there was still no improvement.

I came across Annette’s website by chance and noticed she had quite a remarkable list of testimonies from other clients so I decided to try Kinesiology for myself.

I have to say I’m delighted with the results. The morning following my first session I woke up feeling very refreshed, energised and best of all completely free from pain!!

It’s been just over 6 months now since my initial consultation and I have to say I’m in great form and still symptom free.

Very Grateful to you Annette.

ANXIETY/PANIC ATTACKS

My 15 year old daughter Orla got really sick around Oct 2009. She began having anxiety attacks on a daily basis. It got so bad that she couldn’t bear to be away from me for any length of time. She was filled with this fear that something terrible was going to happen.

At its worst she felt unable to shower without having me stand outside the door and wait for her. Her sleep pattern was so disturbed and I would often have to sit in the room with her until 2 or 3am when she would fall asleep. Eventually I ended up having to share my bed with her due to the irrational fear that had somehow got into her system.

It got to the point where she couldn’t bear to be in a shop even when I was with her. She would walk into the shop and immediately start to feel anxious and feel like she was going to faint. The anxiety got so bad that she was forced to leave school for the best part of 12 months. She completely lost touch with all of her friends as they would always be inviting her over but she was too terrified to be away from me for any period.

I saw Annette’s ad in the paper and took Orla along to see her. Orla attended Annette for 3 sessions initially and has been for one follow up session since and the change in all of our lives has been remarkable. Orla has never felt better. She is back in full time education attending all of her classes. Before having the treatments with Annette, Orla had applied to the school to see if she could sit her leaving cert exams at home under supervision as she didn’t feel she could cope with being back at school, now she is fully content with taking her exams with all of the other students.

She often takes the bus home from school now or gets a lift home with a friend, this would have been unheard of before treatment. Orla now manages to stay home alone when the need arises without getting herself in a state of panic. Anxiety was an issue that was discussed in our home morning, noon and night before we tried Kinesiology. Now it’s never mentioned. We are so delighted to have found a treatment that REALLY works.

The only problem now is that Orla is out and about most weekends and I hardly ever get to see her!!! I would highly recommend this treatment for anyone suffering from fear/anxiety or overall stress in the body. It’s really effective.

PSORIASIS

I’m 29 years old now and I’ve had psoriasis since I was 15. It started as really itchy red bumps all over my body and even on my face. Later the bumps turned into purpleish red spots which I know now are called plaques.

I’d tried all of the creams & ointments the Doctor prescribed but they would only give me relief for a short period of time. Generally a few days if even that. The red patches of skin would always return and get so itchy again.

About 6 weeks ago I came across Annette’s website and noticed she worked with Skin Disorders so I went along for my 3 sessions. I just can’t believe the relief I’ve had since. There’s no more dry flaky skin. The red patches are as good as gone and I’m feeling more confident than I have in years.

SINUSITIS

For the past two months I’ve had Sinusitis and I’ve felt truly miserable. I’d been getting very sharp pain under both my eyes, at the side of my nose and forehead and I’d just been sneezing constantly which in turn was causing my eyes to water non stop.

I attended my G.P who gave me a prescription for an antihistamine but unfortunately that failed to solve the problem.

Feeling distraught I took a trip to my local health food store where I was hoping to find a more natural conclusion. That’s when I came across Annette’s leaflet. Sinusitis was listed there as one of the conditions Annette worked with so I booked in for some treatment and two weeks later my sinuses are clear. No pain, no sneezing and best of all no more watery eyes!! Thanks Annette.

HERNIATED DISC

I’ve had very bad back pain for the last 20 years. I was diagnosed as having 3 herniated discs in my spine and over the course of the last few years I’ve been forced to have a disectomy 7 times. Disectomy is the surgical removal of herniated disc material that presses on a nerve root or the spinal cord. The procedure involves removing the central portion of an intervertebral disc, the nucleus pulposus, which causes pain by stressing the spinal cord or radiating nerves.

For the last 3 or 4 months I began to suffer with very bad pain in my left hip too and I just couldn’t lie on that side at night at all as the pain was unbearable. The back pain was still as bad as ever and I was due to go back for surgery for the 8th time until a friend suggested I give Annette a call and try Kinesiology.

Since my sessions with Annette I’m feeling wonderful. The hip pain has completely gone. Sometimes my back gets a little stiff but nothing in comparison to the pain I had been feeling on a constant day to day basis prior to treatment. Thanks to Annette’s treatments I have been able to avoid having that 8th surgery!

DYSLEXIA

My son is 7 years old and in 1st class. Towards the end of last year he was diagnosed as having dyslexia and 3 to 5 times a week he would have to go to a remedial teacher to get help with his school work.

I spent a lot of time online researching this topic and one day came across Annette’s website where she had listed Dyslexia as one of the ailments she treats.

I took Aaron along for a course of three sessions over a 3 week period and one follow up session since and I’m just amazed at the results. Prior to his sessions with Annette, Aaron hated reading and it was always a struggle to get him to read with me. Now I barely see him without a book in his hand!

His teacher has also spoken to me about his level of improvement in class and feels he no longer needs to attend the remedial teacher.

An extremely happy parent. Thanks Annette x
