- booked for follow up session in 2
weeks time
been booked for the day following
treatment. This led to emergency
surgery for removal of a benign le-
sion deep within the center of the
brain. The client was later reported
to be feeling very relaxed before her
operation. Surgery was successful,
without complications and the client
made a rapid recovery.
- client states she felt tired but bet-
ter following the initial treatment
- headaches, neck pain/ stiffness
have disappeared
- dramatic improvement in today's
findings
- less intense disorders noted
- slight muscle twitch
- color normal
- temperature cool but not cold:
skull, CV
- moisture slightly elevated range:
nervous, CV, sinus regions
- very tired following therapy
- moisture and temperature still
slightly abnormal at beginning of
session indicating a need for further
treatment to correct remaining dis-
orders
- sinus tension resolved during ther-
apy
- body temperature returned to nor-
mal rapidly once treatment began
- moisture level decreased but re-
mained elevated
- mild spastic muscle
activity/restlessness throughout
session
- close to drifting off to sleep
- says she feels better now, good
after session
- will call for next appointment as
she feels the need for further ther-
apy
ment to address ADHD, Raynaud's,
allergies and ongoing mild chest
congestion. The client states that
she is now reading books whereas
this had previously not been one of
her activities. Is this improvement
due to successful surgery, Reflexol-
ogy or, as I suspect, a combination
of both?
