A case study from Diana Gilbert:

Matthew, aged 3 ½, was suffering with eczema and asthma and had been on asthma medication for the past year. His mother was hoping to find an allergy-based reason for these two conditions. He was already on a non-dairy diet as they had been advised that this might be aggravating both eczema and asthma.

On taking a more detailed medical history I found that Matthew had suffered an episode of high fever shortly after his birth. An urgent investigation at the time lead to a chest X-ray followed by a lumbar puncture, but both found nothing, and he was put on a course of intravenous antibiotics. All these events took place within first 24 hours of his life. He had received Vitamin K soon after birth - prior to the onset of fever.

There had been many subsequent episodes of chest problems and shallow breathing, and his mother commented that he was often ‘very poorly and everything seemed to go to his chest’. There were also many courses of prescribed antibiotics.

During the first consultation I observed that, whilst not particularly noisy or hyperactive, he nevertheless did not seem to be able to settle into any activity and was rather demanding of his mother – who seemed incredibly calm and patient with him. He also did not respond to my attempts to engage with him. For this reason all of his treatments were carried out using his mother as a surrogate.

My treatments using the Jaffe Mellor Technique seek to effect a change on the energy level. By asking a series of investigative questions I identify the source of the energetic disturbances which I then correct. ( I use a dowsing pendulum but majority of therapists practicing these techniques use muscle testing which works just as well). The principle of the treatment is to remove the disturbance so that the body can return to the natural state of well being.

I found that his asthma was an absolute priority. I did not seem to have a permission to work with him, he did not believe that he was ‘able, willing and worthy’ of getting over this problem and his health ‘blueprint’ was not in use. Having overcome these obstacles I was able to proceed with the allergy treatment for milk and cheese – including the organic varieties which he reacted to as well.

Further treatments at the same session were for two Chlamydia strains, hydrocortisones and a number of other food and non-food items including a few emotions and, most strangely, a very specific pathogen combination vial which is involved in a special osteoarthritis treatment.

The next day he had a brief check-up, just making sure that all of the pathogens were completely deactivated. He seemed calm and jolly and very happy to chat with me at length.

His follow-up session was 3 weeks later. At that point his mother reported that his asthma attacks have stopped completely, and eczema, having initially flared up had settled down. His was able to freely eat cheese and milk and all dairy products without any reactions. He was full of energy, no sleeping problems (though these were not mentioned earlier but apparently have been present) and his behavior was very good.

His eczema was next on our ‘shopping list’. A number of items were cleared at this session and included some vitamins, nuts and also some specific body ‘bits’ and functions.

At his third and final appointment 6 weeks later his eczema was virtually clear, with only some very minor irritations in some of the skin folds. He still continued to eat milk, butter and cheese and had no asthma at all. His mother was still giving him one small dose of the preventative inhaler medication at bed-time but was planning to take him off that soon.

At this session I dealt with the stored toxins and carried out a toxin elimination protocol to ensure that his body would know what to do on a regular basis.

He required no further treatments.

His mother has written the following words:

’Amazing results – I was exhausted by my son’s asthma attacks, both emotionally and physically. Diana has completely altered our lives. Not a single attack since our first visit! Thank you so much.’
