After 2005 I became a zombie who was constantly struck with viruses, infections and became a shadow of my former self only managing to work part time, and that was a battle. It is the 6th October 2008, the day after the Great North Run and I feel alive and fantastic! So what……….. It was my first half marathon and I completed it in 2hrs 55 seconds So what……….. 10 months ago I was struggling to get out of bed!. L.Berry Stoke

As an ex sufferer of Fibromyalgia as well as CFS myself , I know only to well how it affects ones life and the loved ones around us, I had 10 years of pain and suffering and despite every medical test known to science, (blood tests, barium meals, x rays, scans, seeing different specialists and receiving different drugs) nothing helped me at all.

It is 13 years now since my full recovery from CFS and Fibro and I can now run, jog, swim, weight train, dance, walk, and pretty much any physical activity I want to do, I researched many many books, websites, attended training courses, workshops, spoke to leaders in the field and for the last 7 years I have been helping people just like you to either vastly improve or completely cure them of symptoms and restrictions of CFS,Fibro, ME.

You have done wonders for me Dez! I'm so grateful for your guidancee and continued support. I don't know what I would have done without your help. My energy levels are now good and I appreciate being able to do whatever I want. Thank you so very much in sorting out my Low Blood sugar and Gastritis - A Brown

I offer a unique program that no other practitioner in the UK offers, I can say that with confidence because I know the best of the best either personally or professionally and the system I offer will get most people from being ill to being able to function and get on with life in as little as 6 weeks, yes 6 weeks, that was not a mistake, of course people are very skeptical and i appreciate this, I have traveled the world looking for the latest evidence based and result based therapies, methods and programs to not only help myself but also to help people just like you.

For someone approaching 50 soon you have given me the zest for life of a 30 year old- I have the looks to match and you only lilve once! Thanks a million - P salisbury

The most commonly used diagnostic criteria and definition of CFS for research and clinical purposes were published by the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The CDC definition of CFS requires the following two criteria be fulfilled:

1. A new onset (not lifelong) of unexplained, persistent fatigue unrelated to exertion and not substantially relieved by rest, that causes a significant reduction in previous activity levels
2. Four or more of the following symptoms that last six months or longer:

• Impaired memory or concentration
• Post-exertional malaise, where physical or mental exertions bring on "extreme, prolonged exhaustion and sickness"
• Unrefreshing sleep
• Muscle pain (myalgia)
• Pain in multiple joints (arthralgia)
• Headaches of a new kind or greater severity
• Sore throat, frequent or recurring
• Tender lymph nodes (cervical or axillary)

The first step in regaining your health on all levels is a consultation, because of the complexity of CFS/ME & Fibromyalgia I will need an extended consultation with you which lasts around 60-90 mins, this is the longest session and we actually start treatment within that session for people who want to get started right away.

The fee is £90

The other option is a standard consultation with no treatment which lasts 40-45 mins and costs £50

follow up sessions are changed as follows:

£50.00 per session pay as you go

Some people only need 4-6 sessions and some people need to be seen over a full 6 week period to get well fast, others may want to spread the treatments over several months and that's fine also.

or block payment for 14 sessions for £600.00 = £100.00 saving

of course not everyone needs intensive visits to my clinic so once you have had your initial consultation I will be able to gauge how long and how many sessions are needed for you as an individual.

 

Definition of CFS:ME:FM;

Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) is the most common name given to a variably debilitating disorder or disorders generally defined by persistent fatigue unrelated to exertion and not substantially relieved by rest, and accompanied by the presence of other specific symptoms for a minimum of six months.

The disorder may also be referred to as post-viral fatigue syndrome (PVFS, when the condition arises following a flu-like illness), myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME), or several other terms. The etiology (cause or origin) of CFS is currently unknown and there is no diagnostic laboratory test or biomarker. Fatigue is a common symptom in many illnesses, but CFS is a multi-systemic disease and is relatively rare by comparison.

Symptoms of CFS include widespread muscle and joint pain; cognitive difficulties; chronic, often severe, mental and physical exhaustion; and other characteristic symptoms in a previously healthy and active person. CFS patients may report additional symptoms including muscle weakness, hypersensitivity, orthostatic intolerance, digestive disturbances, depression, poor immune response, and cardiac and respiratory problems.

It is unclear if these symptoms represent co-morbid conditions or are produced by an underlying etiology of CFS. All diagnostic criteria require that the symptoms must not be caused by other medical conditions.

Fibromyalgia (new lat., fibro-, fibrous tissue, Gk. myo-, muscle, Gk. algos-, pain, meaning muscle and connective tissue pain) is also referred to as FM or FMS. Fibromyalgia is characterized by chronic widespread pain and also allodynia, a heightened and painful response to pressure. Fibromyalgia symptoms are not restricted to pain, leading to the use of the alternative term fibromyalgia syndrome for the condition.
