Fractures in lower back after car accident, Netherlands
Testimonial from M van E, 38 yr. Arnhem, August 2001.
In 1995 I had a severe car accident, from which I came away with several fractures in my neck- and lower vertebrae. After 2 years and several operations, the doctors told me that they had done for me all they could. With the complaints that I had at that time, I would have to learn to live with. Live carefully and avoid to exert myself.
My biggest handicap is the continuous pain and second to that come the physical limitations such as hardly being able to move my head in horizontal and vertical directions. Lower on the scale but very unpleasant is the lack of energy and the fact that I am always very very cold. Especially in spring and autumn I am defined by excruciating pain. I try to follow up on the advice to be active, so I walk my dog every day, but sometimes I cannot do that. Walking in the forest is tricky because I cannot look down to see where I place my feet. The vertebrae in the neck have been fixed with several pins and the bones are grinding against each other. The alternative, bending with my back is too painful. The time I can be active during the day has been very limited and unpredictable. Usually after having been out of bed for two hours, I need to rest again and sometimes I am completely exhausted and cold through and through.
My first introduction to the autogenic frequency therapy was in December 2000. During my first visit at first my meridians were tested with the i-health device and the scan was done to find the right frequency. I was treated with my autogenic frequency and the result was instantaneous. I could move my head, I could lay my chin on my chest effortlessly and I could look over my shoulder. Also I was not cold anymore. Although I am still handicapped, the quality of my daily life has improved a great deal. Two weeks after the first treatment, a friend of mine was getting married in Switzerland. Originally, before the first treatment, I did not want to go, afraid that it might be too much, but my anxiety was unnecessary. I got a small device with which I could treat myself anytime when I felt the need I went to Switzerland and I could even party through the night. To know that you can treat yourself any time you need it is fantastic and is giving me such a feeling of freedom. After the second treatment I have not been back since, but I treat myself frequently., sometimes only 2 minutes at other times 10 minutes. My last experience was remarkable I had severe backache after I tried to do my housekeeping duties without a corset. I could not move anymore, so I sat in my chair with my back against the aft-transmitter. It did not help at all. I thought this must be another type of pain for which aft does not help or may be it is a placebo-effect that I sometimes suspected that did the trick. The next day I tried again, no change. On the third day I noticed that the volume control of the device accidentally stood at level 2 instead of 9 to 10. When I had adjusted the strength of the signal, after a few hours I was pain free again.
It is a different life that I lead now. Much more active and with much less pain. The pain will always be there, but I can live with it thanks to the treatments. As long as I can decide when I can do something, I can still do a lot of work. I make my self useful with voluntary work.
