OBSESSIVE COMPULSIVE DISORDER

I began my final year in secondary school last Sept and with the stress of the exams ahead of me I developed OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder). On a daily basis I found myself overwhelmed with constant obsessive fears about being contaminated by germs or dirt and I felt that somehow I would cause others around me to become contaminated too.

The constant fearful thoughts led me to develop an elaborate cleaning ritual which meant I was cleaning my room and washing my hands numerous times per day. At best I would only get temporary relief once the cleaning was done but the obsessive thoughts always seemed to come back even stronger. This created such a strain in my relationships with family and close friends.

I was spending nearly all my free time cleaning instead of studying and that left me feeling frustrated and extremely anxious about failing my exams.

By the time the Christmas holidays arrived the condition had become so bad that my Mum decided it was time I see the Doctor. The Doctor put me on a course of anti anxiety medication and it was suggested I also begin a course of anti-depressants. At 17 that was the last route I wanted to take. I asked the Doctor if I could give the anti anxiety medication a try first and then make a decision about the anti-depressants.

I took the anti anxiety medication for almost 3 months and although it relieved the tightness in my chest and took the edge off a little I was still experiencing the obsessive thoughts and engaging in the compulsive behaviour although perhaps to a lesser degree.

I decided to do my own research on the subject and came across several websites listing different treatment options available. That’s when I came across Annette’s site and saw that OCD was listed as one of the top ten general health conditions she works with.

I went along for my first 3 sessions and also had a follow up session 6 weeks later and I’m delighted to say that all of the initial symptoms of OCD are gone. With the help of Kinesiology I was able to focus more on my studies and I managed to sit through my Leaving Cert exams without needing to take any medication. I’m also thinking a lot clearer since my sessions with Annette and my thoughts have become much more positive.

I’ve been able to enjoy the Summer Holidays after a very tough year and although the weather hasn’t been great I’ve been feeling more relaxed than ever. I’m really excited about getting my Leaving Cert results on the 15th and starting the next chapter in my life.

Thanks for everything Annette. x

BELL’S PALSY

My four year old daughter was diagnosed with Bell’s Palsy just after Christmas. I brought her to an ENT consultant who prescribed steroids and anti-viral medication for her. He told me that recovery could take up to a year. I was absolutely devastated as her face was very distorted and her beautiful smile was gone.

Her eye was also affected and she could not blink or close her eye. As a result I had to put ointment in her eye every night and tape her eye shut to prevent dust and dirt getting into it while she slept.

I also brought her for physiotherapy even though I was told that it was unclear if physio had any benefits, however I was willing to try anything. The first couple of months were so hard as there was absolutely no improvement whatsoever.

I spoke to Annette about it and she recommended surrogate kinesiology for her. This works whereby I act as a surrogate for my daughter and Annette works on me (as my daughter would not be able to lie still for the hour long sessions).

Annette recommended three sessions initially. The day after the third session I noticed a tiny blink in her affected eye and since then the difference has just been amazing. Every day I could see more and more improvement.

I completed four sessions for her and she now has about 95% recovery two weeks after completing the sessions. I cannot thank Annette enough. My beautiful daughter has her beautiful smile back. I have no doubt that her recovery is a result of the sessions with Annette, plus I found the sessions very relaxing also.

WEIGHT LOSS

I’ve always had a problem with my weight. I have tried every possible diet going. When I heard about Kinesiology I decided to call the number. I went to see Annette and she explained to me about the importance of Blood Type in relation to weight loss.

The Blood Type Diet is all about eating the right foods that are beneficial to your particular Blood Type as opposed to eating foods that are actually toxic to your system and causing allergies and weight gain.

I attended the sessions about 2 months ago and I am thrilled to say that I have dropped a dress size already. It’s all about eating the right foods for your type and increasing water intake and of course getting more exercise.

It’s great, I feel fantastic and I’m getting lots of compliments on how well I look. I would strongly recommend this form of treatment for weight loss as if it can work for me it can definitely work for someone else. Thanks Annette for all your advice and help.

LOW BACK PAIN

I had been suffering with low back pain for almost 12 months. I attended several different therapists to get relief including an acupuncturist and a chiropractor but to no avail. A friend then kindly treated me to a session with Annette and I haven’t looked back. That was almost 6 months ago and through the power of Kinesiology I have been left completely free from pain. I would strongly recommend this form of treatment for all aches and pains in the body.

DIGESTIVE DISORDER

For the past 4 years I’ve been suffering on a day to day basis with an irritable bowel, low energy levels and just a total lack of motivation for life in general.  I’ve attended my doctor on several occasions only to be handed more tablets to “treat the symptoms” as opposed to treating the cause!  A friend suggested Kinesiology to me and I’d never even heard of it.  I decided to give it a go and am just astounded at the results.  Since my second session my digestive system has been restored to what I feel is optimum health.  My energy levels have soared and I just have a whole new lease on life.  I am so grateful to Annette for her help and support on my journey to health and to my friend for guiding me towards this form of treatment that has made such a huge difference to my life.  I am eternally grateful to you both.

HEEL PAIN

I went to see Annette Reilly with a very bad pain in my right heel which I had been suffering with for some time. I could barely put my heel to the ground without it causing huge pain and discomfort. 3 Days after my first session the pain was completely gone and I have not had pain in that heel since.

BEREAVEMENT

I had been suffering from stomach problems for about two years and tried everything but nothing worked for me until I read about Kinesiologist Annette Reilly.

I made an appointment with Annette but didn’t tell her what was wrong with me. After Annette working on me for a few minutes she was able to tell me.

Annette told me that I had a lot of grief in my system for over two years and that this was causing problems with my digestive system. I was amazed how she could tell me this and this made me feel confident that I had the right person and I was on the right road to recovery.

My son was killed in a very tragic accident just two years prior to my visit to Annette. After my first session I was feeling much better, Annette said it would take three sessions to get to the bottom of it and after the three sessions I didn’t know myself. I am a different person, this is almost a year later and I never looked back since. Thanks Annette.

HIP PAIN

I was suffering with pain in my right hip for almost four years and in the last two years it got even more painful. I attended a Physiotherapist for several sessions but I was just not progressing at all. I had hip x-rays four January’s in a row but all they showed up was mild osteoarthritis. Mild was inconsistent with the severe pain I was experiencing.

Last year I ended up having a hip replacement but found I was still getting very bad pain and soreness in the hip area. I thought once I had the operation that everything would be alright again and that the initial pain would be gone but unfortunately that was not the case. I found I wasn’t progressing with any milestones even a few months after surgery.

I attended Annette for a few sessions of Kinesiology a few months later and have had huge improvement since. I still get soreness the odd time but nothing in comparison to the pain I had been experiencing. I can now do all the normal things like standing, walking or going out to the shops and my hip joint feels perfect.

FROZEN SHOULDER

I’ve been attending Annette since last September and it has definitely made a huge difference to my life. Annette discovered the first time I went to see her that my serotonin and melatonin hormones indicated high levels of stress and she used correction techniques to rebalance these. Annette continues to rebalance these hormones on each visit and thankfully the positive changes this makes are evident. Kinesiology is also brilliant for treating diabetes and frozen shoulders. I had been suffering from Diabetes for almost 2 years before I attended Annette for my first Kinesiology session. I have since had to reduce the dosage of herbs I am taking for diabetes. Also my frozen shoulder that had been troubling me for some time showed great improvement from the very first session and it is getting better all the time.

I am doing the kinesiology workshop that Annette teaches and I can’t wait to practice it myself. It’s a fantastic treatment, and can be used to treat such a wide variety of ailments. It is non invasive and so relaxing. I can highly recommend this treatment.

WEIGHT LOSS

I attended Annette for a course of 3 sessions over a 3 week period and took her advice on board in relation to my diet. Annette put me on a whole new eating plan and I’m delighted to say I’ve lost almost 2 stone in the past 8 weeks.

I’m really pleased with the results and would recommend this treatment to anyone looking to lose weight.
