In 1989 I was medically diagnosed as suffering from M.E. (Myalgic Encephalomyelitis) or Chronic Fatigue Syndrome for some 12 years or more, due to chemical poisoning from pesticides (245-T, Network, Roundup, etc), and heavy metals. After an extensive medical I was told that I would never regain normal health due to the extent of the damage and the length of time I had been ill, and that I would be dependent on medical treatment for the rest of my life! At the time I wasn’t able to work, couldn’t sleep at night, found it very difficult to get out of bed in the morning, had no energy whatsoever, had a head full of cottonwool and had severe reactions to almost everything I ate due to a long term Candida problem! I met Philip Rafferty doing allergy testing in a Health Food store.

As I knew what all my allergies were (including all the heavy metals) I thought I would put him to the test. You can imagine my surprise when in the space of a couple of minutes of using muscle monitoring, he was able to list all my allergy problems. He told me at the time that Kinesiology strengthens the muscles in the body and as the muscles are connected with the organs, puts the organs back into balance therefore allowing the body to assimilate nutrition and water properly. Philip explained that by putting the muscles back into balance, the body is able to heal itself. I was getting pretty desperate by this stage to get my health to some sort of reasonable level. It sounded like just what I needed! I went and had a couple of sessions of Kinergetics with Philip.

You can imagine my surprise when I started feeling better than I had in a long time, was thinking more positively, sleeping better at night and had much more energy! After several sessions, Philip corrected my chronic Candida problem along with my food allergies, the hypoglycemia subsided, the acne on my face clearing up and I started to gain weight! When I had been told by the Medical profession that as my condition was so acute, I could not expect to live a normal life, I guess that’s when I decided to prove them wrong and had started to look at all aspects of my life on the Physical, Nutritional, Mental, Emotional and Spiritual levels. I came to realize that by working on myself as a whole, I was able to make many changes in my life. I also could have done what a lot of people with severe M.E. do and that’s believe the medical profession and believe that I was incurable! At the time I was seeing Philip, he was about to start teaching Kinergetics and asked if I would be interested. After having such amazing results and having first hand experience of what Kinergetics could do, I thought that it would be interesting to find out more about how it worked and why, so I enrolled myself into his Kinergetics One workshop. I found doing the workshop absolutely fascinating and starting practicing on friends who were willing to be my ‘guinea pigs’.

I went to several demonstrations that Philip did and took all my friends along. It was at one of these demonstrations that I decided that Kinesiology was what I really wanted to do. That was back in 1992! Every time Philip developed each level of Kinergetics, I attended the workshop and learned more and more about Kinergetics. I have now completed every level of Kinergetics to Level Seven about three times over. Now I am an Instructor teaching people Kinergetics. Up until October of last year I worked full-time as an Executive Secretary, seeing my Kinergetics clients in the evenings. I just love this work and seeing the life-changing results in my clients. Last year I decided that I had had enough of working for someone else. After learning so much about Kinesiology I realized that there was still a lot more to learn and I am now studying Kinesiology full-time at the Kinesiology College of Energetic Sciences. I finally feel that I am ready to work for myself in my own business and learn everything I need to learn in order to become a better Kinesiologist. The best decision I have made in my life!
