CASE HISTORIES FROM PRACTITIONERS

During their working week, our OHB practitioners see clients with a wide range of ailments and health problems. Their treatments and recovery are fully documented and demonstrate a confirmation of the success of Optimum Health Balance.

Many clients write to tell us how their lives have changed as a result of their recovery. Just a few of these client comments are shown below.

If you are looking at this listing to find a practitioner who has helped a health problem that you personally suffer from -- please remember that these are just a very few case histories.

Secondly, OHB is a holistic therapy. Let's say for example that you suffer from eczema. and have tried traditional treatment with creams and ointments. These may reduce the symptoms and sooth the skin, but will not address the reason why you have eczema. Holistic therapies go beyond this to establish why the body is out of balance and reacting in a way that results in the symptoms. So if the body can be brought back into balance, then the reaction (eczema) will disappear.

Since all the OHB practitioners are trained in the same programme, they should all be able to rebalance the body and in this way help deal with a wide range of ailments and symptoms.

Food intolerances

"Two years ago I recovered from a 6-month bout of ME. However, during his time I developed food intolerances which never cleared up. Having seen various specialists I was told that once a person develops food sensitivities they would have them for life. I found that if I cut yeast and all fermented products from my diet I did not experience days of extreme stomach pain and bloating.

As someone who has always loved food, eating out became an absolute nightmare. However careful I was there was always something hidden in the meal that I should have avoided. Just recently I was so fed up living on bland, plain food and having a couple of 'stomach attacks'. I finally decided to see Gill Tarlington.

Surprisingly, Gill pin-pointed me with having a dairy intolerance but could not find any sensitivity to yeast products. I left her feeling quite sceptical but nevertheless decided to follow her advice.

I still can't believe it but for the past 6 months I have been eating anything and everything with no problems whatsoever. My life feels transformed and only wish I had paid a visit to Gill much sooner. I am very grateful to her." BL

Recurring nightmares - Fear of Flying

For nine years W had suffered nightmares about his dead father. Muscle testing confirmed this was so and using vibrational icons, the body indicated it had accepted the treatment. When W returned for his next treatment 3 months later there had been no recurrence.

But he had another problem - fear of flying. Along with general balancing, this was specifically addressed in relation to a flight to Orlando. Months later I learned of his astonishment and delight that the journey to The States had been comfortable and stress-free. A year later with a further visit to Orlando W reported he can now happily move around in the aircraft and this included, to his great relief, visiting that smallest of areas which had been out of court on previous trips.

But he had another problem ...... and that is what practitioners of OHB deal with. GT

Geopathic stress

C has been suffering lethagy, loss of interest, dissatisfaction and frustration at work. During the course of the balancing session, vulnerability to geopathic stress came up. Investigating further, the client was astounded when I said I was pinpointing problems from petrochemicals. Specifically. areas where a cul-de-sac collects in the air, pockets of pollution from garages, bus and lorry depots or areas of idling traffic. The premises where the client worked turned out to be an old bus depot. Protection from this eased the symptoms. GT

Neck and arm pain

I recently saw a nutritional therapy patient about respiratory and digestive problems. I suggested food allergies and at the second appointment I suggested an Optimum Health Balance. He mentioned that he had a long standing neck problem which caused pain down his right shoulder and arm.
He was seeing a chiropractor for this but considered this made it worse rather than better. During the balance I looked for Muscular or Skeletal problems but none came up. One of the Specific Problems was Sacral Cranial Fault.

At the following appointment he asked whether I had done some sort of magic because when he left my clinic his neck was free of pain, and still was, and the pains in his shoulder and arm had been gradually going. This was quite incidental to the main problems that we were trying to deal with! PP

Wheat intolerance and discharge from an ear

Conditions causing problems: Wheat intolerance (nasal congestion and upset stomach); Right ear discharge (having been stable for 15 years, the right ear started discharging over a 3-year period culminating in a continuous discharge prior to consultation with Charles Benham.

Treatment Effects: The conditions were relieved following the consultation and can be directly attributed to kinesiology session or advice given at the session were. Three treatments over 6 months completely resolved the wheat intolerance.

First treatment indicated dissimilar metal used in dental fillings (mercury amalgam and gold inlay) was the cause of the right ear discharge. This was confirmed when the mercury amalgam was replaced by Boron silicate. The ear discharge and apparent reoccurring infections completely cleared.

Comments on the experience : With regards to the ear, there was a scientific approach:
… find the cause of the problem
… define and take action to resolve the problem
… then see what the results are.

What was interesting, during the first treatment, the question of why the ear was dormant for so long and then became active was uppermost in my mind. On returning home from this first treatment I recalled the dental treatment which introduced the metal gold inlays, about one year before the ear started to discharge. As a scientist (BSc Chemical Physics, MSc Optics, MSc Computer Science) it is necessary for me to find a 'Mode of Action' for Kinesiology. I cannot say I completely accept the explanations that has been given whilst studying to be an OHB practitioner, but what I am sure of are the amazing results that OHB and Kinesiology achieves. KP

Animals

My daughter rang in sheer desperation wondering if OHB could do anything for her mare's infected hoof which was taking a long time to heal. Using a photograph of the horse and self muscle testing, I retained an image of the animal in my mind, and found dehydration and absorption as a link via blood chemistry. My daughter admitted the horse never did drink much water, compared with the others in the yard but, after an OHB balance, the mare has been drinking twice as much, and is once again sound. JG

Fatigue

Conditions causing Problems: Fatigue. One treatment produced an immediate improvement in energy levels so much so that in her trade as a Chiropodist she is actively recommending OHB to a large number of her own clients based on the amazing result produced. KP

Joint pain

A retired female client came to me complaining of pain in the knees, identifying climbing stairs and kneeling as very difficult and painful to do. The client had been to a number of different therapies over the years but with little or no lasting improvement her condition.
On completing the OHB balance she stated that the pain had gone and to prove the point, she knelt up and down 3 times exclaiming her surprise. This has remained the case over the last 2 years. As she said 2 years later, "So however the treatment works, it is truly wonderful." KP

Learning difficulties, lack of concentration

Client B was attending an OHB course and said that she was feeling very tired and having difficulty in concentrating - quickly adding that it was nothing to due with the course! She said it always happened whenever she tried to learn new things.

During the balance, her mind/ body system highlighted the following:

Primary Problem - General Boost mental / emotional;

Body System - Gastro-intestinal, in particular Bowel Regulation.
Client B said "That's true! I have real problems and feel bloated most of the time as I get constipated. I only go to the toilet every 5 days or so!"

Emotional imbalance - this was associated with the Small Intestine meridian and the word Assimilation. This related to when she was 6 and sent away to school, which she found overwhelming. "There was too much to take in away from home all on my own!"
After the balance, Client B said, "What a relief, I feel relaxed and able to learn the new material". SL

Constipation, asthma, painful periods, lack of focus

Pam was a reflexologist and came for a balance as her asthma was very troublesome. She was having painful periods and overall just felt as though she had lost her direction in life. During the Optimum Health Balance, Foreign Energy came up and was treated as well as certain psychological reversals, diverticulitis, fridgity and constipation.

At this point, Pam talked about the problems she was experiencing with respect to her partner and that the fridigity made sense as she felt as though she was withdrawing from him and life in general. She then added that constipation was a problem and flippantly asked how long it would be before the balance kicked in and made things work. I replied "Probably and hour or so!"The first thing Pam said a few months later on returning for another balance was "You were right, you know! I just got home in time before the constipation icon worked! That made me realise what a powerful balance the OHB system gives." SL

Anxious/ Depressed/ Stressed

Client A's husband fixed the appointment for his wife as she was so anxious/ depressed/ stressed that she felt incapable of doing anything, even talking. Normally she would have rung herself.

When she arrived for a balance, I stressed that in using the OHB system, she did not need to say anything at all, unless she wanted to. She could just lie down and let go, and I would tell her the imbalances which her mind/ body system revealed.

The primary imbalance was found to be `cerebellar dysfunction'. When I mentioned that, on a physical level, the cerebellum is about balance, she immediately talked about feeling dizzy, unable to co-ordinate her body, and about the crisis she was experiencing at work.

The second major imbalance was found to be `ME'. Client A was familiar with the symptoms as her son had experienced it several years ago. She said she felt completely drained of energy and could do nothing for herself. We regressed and found that the imbalance related to first when she was 31 and then further back when she was 6. She said that at 31, she had been very stressed at work and had eventually changed jobs. When she was 6 she had been sent to live with her grandmother. Both episodes had been very stressful and mirrored aspects of her present situation.

After the balance, Client a suddenly said: "I feel fine - much clearer about work and able to take control. I've suddenly got my energy back." The change was amazing and demonstrated the powerful effect that an OHB balance can have!

Client A rang several days later to tell me that after the balance her left eye had become inflamed and added: "It's amazing because when I was 311 remember now that I had a severe infection in my left eye and had to have the lens removed. I'd forgotten all about it. It's OK again now. And, by the way, I've decided to look for another job!" SL
