true :)

Alternative therapies have helped my child the most, NHS said he will not walk or talk after his accident and he was discharged from most services very quickly

Thank-you PinkShark I'd absolutely love to go but it's too far and I'm needed at home. I can do a 25 mile radius of home but not much more. I've forwarded the details to friends who live a lot closer so hopefully they can go if they are interested.

I've asked them to make a note of the main points that are used, they are usually describes as say K27, Lu13 etc. or they use the translations of the Chinese names like 'Heaven's Gate'. I've looked at their animated graphic and am familiar enough with some of them to ID from that but would love to find out more. There was mention of a book on one of the pages, if it's for sale to non-attendees I'd be interested.

Which therapies have you found that have helped? I've used quite a few over the years for anxiety management and co-ordination and herbal remedies because dd was allergic to the colours and other crap they insist on putting into childrens' medicine and a lot of cosmetics and bath products.

It's amusing to see things in common usage today and even recommended by the NHS that were considered to be beyond fringe just over a decade ago like Pranayama and some meditation techniques Grin and chamomile tea being available in supermarkets, not little obscure healthfood shops, although Valerian Root hasn't made it that far yet Wink

Hello blanklook - I am sorry for the delay in replying.

Homeopathy and cranial osteopathy have helped my son the most.

I also did RRT and AIT when he was much younger.

But I still need something to regulate his stress and anxiety and something like massage I am hoping to really help. He likes deep pressure and also makes him more organised and calmer.

Shame you are too far and perhaps its half term so most people need to stay home with kids.
