“ It’s been 2 years, one month and three days since I quit smoking with Gary’s hypnosis and over that time I have only had a few tiny urges... honestly, you could count them on one hand... otherwise it is like I never, ever smoked; and it was just one two hour session. It is like he just turned the cigarette switch off somehow. Over Two Years
"I have tried to quit in the past, but never made it this long. The problem was that my husband continued to smoke and that wore me down and I would give in; but not this time. It is truly amazing that I can watch him smoke now and it doesn’t bother me. That one thing amazed me more than anything else.
"I am an actress and I was in a play and I had to smoke herbal cigarettes and I was a little worried about that, but it didn’t even faze me. It seemed like I had never smoked because I couldn’t remember how to hold a cigarette in my fingers. I had to relearn for the play.
"I have not gained weight, in fact, I have lost 25 pounds. I have been out drinking with friends who smoked and it had no impact.
"It’s not cheap for a session but I told myself if I quit for a month then I’ve recovered my money. Before I went in, I smoked in my car and left them on the dash and said, 'Don’t worry my darlings, I’ll be right back for you.' During the session I really believed nothing had happened at all. I got in my car and left and half way home I saw the pack on the dash, I rolled down the window and tossed them out. I thought, I don’t know why I have these. I was laughing.
"I appreciate Gary every day. My husband is now thinking of coming and I have already sent several friends who all quit.
"You know, I didn’t even have a very good attitude when I came. I was sure that it wouldn’t work - maybe I’d quit for a month to recover my money - and I didn’t really want to quit. Also, I didn’t think that I was hypnotized at all. I didn’t go under or blank out, I heard everything but something happened.
"You’ve heard of people who quit and after years they still crave a smoke. Not me. I never think about it."Terry Doyle, Fort St. John, B.C.
Recorded on March 26, 2008.
"I have taken off 15 pounds since June... in only 3 office sessions. This has been a lifestyle change, it has changed the way I think and incorporate things into my daily activity. It’s easy, it works, it’s effortless... that’s the scary part... the rest just happens. I had never been hypnotized and was surprised to learn how pleasant it was. Many times my subconscious mind would disagree with the conclusions of my conscious mind. Feeding Emotions
"I played my self-hypnosis CDs between office sessions nightly and it works. My whole family notices the difference. I read the testimonials before I started and have re-read them since and I am pleased that I feel like I want to contribute one also.
"When I came in, I knew how to eat healthy but something stopped me from doing it. Now all that has changed. It’s as easy to get the weight off now as it was difficult before.”

“I was a very heavy smoker, at least 4 before coffee. Everyone at work is trying to quit and they complain about the withdrawal pangs from nicotine and I keep telling them that it is all just truly in your head. They are having such a hard time when it could be so easy... it’s a mind game. Well Over a Pack Every Day
"I played the self-hypnosis CD for a month after and I was really surprised how easy it was. There were no real cravings. I have friends who tried the patch and they got ugly rashes on their bodies and I really didn’t want to have to go that route. I thought I would have to go the regular nicotine substitute route until a friend told me about you.
"I believe it is to your advantage to be serious about quitting. I didn’t think I was hypnotized because I heard and understood everything clearly. I didn’t blank out or anything... It’s not like when my daughter got hypnotized on stage. It was really quite amazing because after the session I felt like smoking but something happened and I didn’t. I got in my truck and I had cigarettes there but I chewed some gum instead. By the time I got back to Fort St. John the urges were getting really weak. It was a little hard the first day. Then I went camping with my sisters and still did o.k. I thought that even if I quit I would be grumpy just like everyone else, but I was not angry or bitchy. In fact my family were surprised at my positive attitude about quitting. An extra was that I haven’t put on any weight.
"It’s been 6 weeks now and I am sure I will never smoke again. I am a supervisor and sometimes I have to go into the staff smoking room and it doesn’t even tempt me.
"It was a long session, over three hours. If I managed to quit I expected the worst and instead the best happened."

[Update from October 16, 2003] "My first treatment was to get over a bad accident when I was sixteen. It doesn’t even bother me anymore... it’s all in the past and gone. We treated to improve my hockey game also and that worked too. I am relaxed on the ice and playing much better. Never Thought it Would Work
"All the stuff we worked on from three years ago was effective without setbacks and it only took a couple of sessions. My mom was on the internet looking into hypnosis to help. I didn’t know anything about it. In fact, I didn’t think it would work and was I surprised.”

“As a Golf Club Professional/Golfswing instructor, I’m always looking for the best possible approach to 'reaching and teaching' students who sometimes possess a challenging variety of personalities and learning habits. Quite often my students will also posses a storeroom of memories of former successes and failures of games and golfswing, both physical and mental. Golf Magic
"When I first met and started working with Gary, my own game had deteriorated, for various reasons over time, to a very frustrating level. Even with all the golf related resources available to me I couldn’t make any lasting progress or improvement. Gary’s empathic approach and wonderful rapport was a breath of fresh air. How exciting it was to see and feel things from an eager student’s perspective again!
"The techniques that Gary uses are making a world of difference in my personal and sporting life, and in my coachings as well. I wholeheartedly recommend Gary’s service to anyone looking to recapture the “magic” in any aspect of their lives. The initial consultation was a great first step for me, and I’ll bet it will be for you too.”

“What surprised me the most was how easily and comfortably this program fit into my lifestyle and the weight just came off. Hypnosis was very comfortable and relaxing and not scary at any time. It’s been over a month now and I have broken a bad habit completely. I was in the habit of stopping at a store when I drove and eating junk food. I still stop at the store but not once was I tempted to buy junk food. For me, this was the real acid test. This has been the first month in over five years that I did not buy junk food when I stopped. I never believed that I could ever do this. A Powerful Habit Easily Broken
"I have now lost 8 pounds and 10 inches in a month and it was so easy. I heard your radio ad and I thought... that is my answer because nothing else I tried has worked and it was so frustrating. This is a great approach and it is producing a change in my whole lifestyle.”

“I had not been hypnotized before and I am truly amazed by the results. Hypnosis for me was restful, gentle and non-threatening. I tried to analyze how it worked but gave up on that. I really didn’t think that I had been hypnotized at all... it seemed so normal. Five Years and Three Months Later
"It’s been 5 years and 3 months and I have had a few brief weak cravings that are easily controlled. Months could go by before I had any cravings. When one did show up it was so weak. On a scale of 1-10 it would be about 0.5.
"Gary has helped me with some other problems and I can only say... try it because the gains can be immense.”

“Hypnosis was not like I expected. I was terrified when I started but I had it all wrong. You do not pass out and wake up, yet my subconscious was doing the talking... that really surprises me. I would think that the answer must be yes, but my subconscious would signal no! This is incredible, really. Terrified of Hypnosis
"I can’t believe how strong I feel. I feel like I am thirty again. I am sleeping a lot better and this is after only four hours of treatment. I was angry and upset about what happened when I was a child, but all that seems healed. I can talk about it calmly and without emotion and not get upset for the first time in my life. I carried this baggage for years and years and now it is gone. I came looking for a solution to my insomnia and had no idea that it all started in my childhood. I have a new and bright perspective on my life.
"I read all the testimonials before booking an appointment and now I will be glad to talk with anyone about how this stuff helped me and made my life so much better.”

“I already had my mind made up to quit, but this was fantastic. I thought I would try hypnosis even though I didn’t know anything about it. If it works, it works and if it doesn’t, at least I tried. It worked one hundred per cent for me. Mind Made Up to Quit
"It was the week-end coming up and I went dancing. People were smoking and drinking all around me and it didn’t even bother me. It’s been over four years now and I still don’t smoke, even though the stress in my life almost got me once.
"I think that it is important to already have your mind made up... then the hypnosis just helps to make it easier.”

“I had used hypnosis to try to quit smoking before but it didn’t last. This time, with Gary, it was so much easier. When I left his office, it was like I was never a smoker. Easier Than Before
"There were no urges... nothing. I walked to my truck and opened the door and the smell was horrible because I had smoked when I drove. I had to roll all the windows down because I couldn’t stand it. It was disgusting.
"I notice now that I don’t even like it when people smoke around me.I resent it. I have a lot of customers come into my store and ask how I am doing and when I tell them how easy it was, they are amazed. I just found out that Gary helped a radio announcer in Fort St. John, Terry Boyle, quit a week before me and she found it just as easy.
"I have been very happy since I quit... no anger or stress or anything. I am still so amazed and so are my friends... wow. They are all going to see him and I am going back to deal with some other problems”

“Gary had helped several members of my family before, so they encouraged me to come. I really didn’t know what to expect, but the changes were so fast right in the first session. I left feeling so much better than when I came in 2 hours before. It’s hard to imagine that so much could change so quickly. Referred by Family
"I can deal with hurt and anger now without getting into a shouting match. I just feel more positive and optimistic. I can deal with stress calmly without hurting anyone in the process. I don’t have to strike back anymore and I don’t take all the blame. I used to think that it was my entire fault all the time... what a relief. I can still get angry but it is a healthy controllable anger now.
"For someone reading this, I would tell you that it is hard to describe the process but it does work.”

“I am feeling so much better after 2 sessions. I can smile for no reason now. I quit smoking with you several years before and it was so easy to quit, so I knew it could help me again. Outlook Improves in Less Than One Month
"I was so lethargic and disoriented, I couldn’t get back on track... since June I had just shut down. We treated for an upset from when I was a toddler, 2 years old and I felt the weight leave. I had been carrying that weight all these years and didn’t even know it. When it left I have never felt so good in all my life.
"I would tell anyone... go for it. I still cannot believe how much improved my outlook is in less than one month. I am still in the same house and in the same relationship, but I can control my stress and I look at things so differently now."
Madeline Scott
Two sessions in December 2004
“I had to pass this exam. I had tried it twice before and this was my last chance. I used to be extremely nervous, hot and cold, my stomach upset. I would get totally prepared, I studied hard and everything was under control until a week or so before the exam date and then the nervousness would start and I would fall apart. Once I was taking the exam, I couldn’t come up with answers that I knew that I knew just an hour ago. The second time was even worse than the first and I had a lot riding on this. It was really important to pass. Exam Tension
"It was surprising how my fingers moved to answer questions during our sessions. I listened to the self-hypnosis tape faithfully. This time I was confident and relaxed even before the exam. I noticed that I was really absorbing all the study material. I went in and took the exam and it felt like just another day. Some questions were tough but I didn’t panic and I kept going, calmly, anyways. When I was done, they scored me and I had aced it. I was so happy and it was so much easier.
"I would tell anyone that if you are concerned about exams or grades go to see Gary. I couldn’t believe the changes. Even if people are leery or not sure that it would work, I would say... try it.”
Jennifer Bellhouse
October 2004
"I was always depressed and never happy. I hated myself so much. I had trouble getting out of bed and doing stuff with my life. I simply could not be alone or I would go crazy. I was embarrassed about myself around others. I’d think, oh my God I am so dumb and then I wouldn’t talk anymore. I had a boundary problem and my emotions would go up and down according to the person that I was around. I was an emotional puppet and I felt helpless to change it. It reached the point where I was having suicidal thoughts. Depression
"My friend had good treatments with Gary so I thought I would try it. After the first session, I was really pleased and excited about it and I wanted to talk to people about it. I knew it worked, but my friends kept putting it down saying that hypnosis is all phony. I was discouraged by the narrow-mindedness of my friends but all what really matters is that I knew it was working. I feel a hundred times better than I did two weeks ago. Suddenly I could enjoy my time alone and just be comfortable with myself. I used to feel that my life was pointless and directionless and all that has changed as well. I’m now O.K. with the uncertainty of life because I know that some things are within my control and others are not. I was also a door mat and not self-assertive but that is all over with. I stand up for my rights now and feel really good about myself.
"You have to be willing to change and let go of preconceived notions. Don’t be like my ignorant friends who were criticizing hypnosis even when I was telling them how great it was. I got answers from my subconscious that just blew me away . . . prenatal upsets that my mom confirmed were true.
"I don’t look back any more and it only took two sessions to get most of the work done.”

Three treatments from April 28 to May 25, 2004.
“I couldn’t control my emotions about my stepson. My anger and irritation were out of control and unwarranted and it was destroying the whole family and getting constantly worse. I was ready to move out rather than wreck the whole family. I saw several regular therapists over a years time with no change…it didn’t get better at all. Help With Family Relationships
"When I read the website testimonials, it was hard to accept. I recognized some names and realized that these are honest and respectable people that wouldn’t exaggerate. That’s what convinced me to come in. I’m also open to trying new things and had done my own research, so I thought that it was worth a try.
"I noticed right after the first session with Gary that I felt much better about my relationship with my stepson. After three sessions we are laughing together and enjoying together and my stepdaughter said, just last night, that she was so pleased about how well we were getting along in the house now and how much easier it is for her to have a good time and be calm and relaxed…the whole family is happier. There was a poison that I was generating and I couldn’t control it before and now it is gone.
"During all that talk therapy before, I felt that there was something under the surface but the psychologists couldn’t get to it. With these new treatments, it seemed natural for that hidden stuff to come out and be healed. The muscle testing system surprised me…I have never seen anything like it. It got right to the core problem.”

“I’ve been having panic attacks for the last three years. I couldn’t go further than fifteen minutes from my home and around six P.M., I’d have to go home or try to hide away . . . I couldn’t control it. It was an awful feeling. I went to regular type of therapy for a long time and my doctor put me on medication but it was getting worse. I knew that it was tied into my car accident but I was helpless to stop it. I suffered for almost four years and I was miserable. Imagine having to be within a fifteen minute range of your home all the time. Help With Panic Attacks
"Two former clients of Gary’s told me to try it, so I read the webpage but was really doubtful. I didn’t honestly think that it could help me. I thought it was all false, but from experience, I’d say it works great. I have a normal life.
"I used to have three or four attacks every day. We had only one session and it has now been an entire week without an attack. How do you explain that? It only took two and a half hours. My mom and friends are really relieved for me. I was driving people nuts. I’d have fits about what was bothering me and I didn’t know what was bothering me. People enjoy being around me now . . . I’m easier to live with.”

Problem lasted 4 years.
"I had gone to regular talk therapy and tried self-help books and tapes for years without results. I had reached a point where I felt it was all hopeless . . . I just couldn’t change how I felt. I had given up and just accepted that I must continue to dislike myself. I would just have to remain unhappy, depressed and frustrated and accept the fact that I just couldn’t seemed to get it together no matter how hard I tried. Long Distance Help With Stress and Depression
"My friend said that she was really making progress and having an exceptional experience with Gary’s kind of therapy. It amazed her and she said that I should give it a try. I was convinced that I would have to fly from Battleford to Dawson Creek and how could I afford the time or money to do that. I was surprised when Gary said that we could use the telephone just as easily as actually going to his office.
"I thought that my problems were unsolvable. I never made the connection between the mind and body before and the Emotional Freedom techniques made such an immediate difference. After the first session I felt I had dropped about 80% of this heavy emotional load. When you carry it for so long, you just think that is normal. When it leaves you, you begin to realize how it weighed you down without even knowing it. What a relief! You think, oh my goodness, this is really something.
"I really feel that it is this therapy that has made all the difference. I am such a better and healthier person today and there is no doubt in my mind that this therapy was totally responsible for this great change. It has opened up so many doors that were totally closed before. It’s hard to put into words the overall impact of the treatments have had on my life. I was so down that any improvement would be worth the time, distance and money. I never expected to get such results, especially over the phone. I can now live up to my true potential and set goals and really achieve them. If you compare that to having no power and feeling like a victim of life, it’s hard to put a dollar on that. The cost was nothing compared to what I got out of it. It’s invaluable no matter how I look at it.
"What have you got to lose…you may get results that are just as good. Give it a try. The chances are you will gain from it. I’d be glad to talk to anyone about this great experience any time. Call Gary and he will put you in touch with me.”

"My life was pretty much out of control with anger. Everything I associated with was anger . . . relationships, work . . . it didn't matter. It was all anger. I couldn't get anything to help me. Stress and Anger Alleviated
"I finally came to a point where I wanted to do something about it and I had read the webpage. I wasn't skeptical as much as uncertain if it could help me. It certainly seemed to help others. My wife worked with Gary several years ago and she noticed very strong and good changes.
"I came in very serious about changing and I was open to anything. I was really surprised at how these treatments worked . . . they were very different from what I expected . . . but I remained open to it all. I'm sure that type of attitude really helped. I rate the changes four out of four on the success treatment scale that Gary uses.
"Now that I've got all the old emotional garbage gone, my anger is gone also. I feel so much better about myself and life now. It's easy now to continue making improvements in my life . . . I was so angry before, I could never come close to that. It was worth every cent and more."

"I've always, always had a cigarette in my hand. I was a real heavy smoker and had tried every way to quit. Gary helped my friend Francine Mills to quit in one session, so I was very optimistic that I could do the same, even though I had tried those group hypnosis shows to quit smoking. That was a total failure. Quit Smoking With Only One Session
"After the first session, I used the techniques that I learned to get rid of urges for the first week and I played the self-hypnosis tape for a month after. I know the tape helped a lot. Considering how many different times that I have tried to quit, I must say that this was the easiest and it took only one session. I went through Christmas, company, entertaining, social drinking, and I had no problems with smoking. If I'm around someone who is smoking, I just go blah . . . go away people. It's very seldom that I even think about smoking anymore. It's so refreshing to feel like that. I never really got angry and I definitely have not put on any weight.
"People ask me how much it costs and they react like it is too expensive. I point out that it costs them that much and more to keep on smoking and trying to quit with things that don't work at all. I recovered my cost within a week. It's been over four and a half months now and I've been saving money that would have gone up in smoke . . . and it's going to pay for a really nice holiday for us.
"I think about the people I know who keep on smoking. They're not really willing to quit like I was. I know that I was definitely ready to quit . . . that's what makes the difference with hypnosis. My husband has even been listening to the self-hypnosis tape and he's down to one cigarette a day."

“My marriage was in jeopardy because I have been so tired and depressed for so long . . . about eight years. All I wanted to do was sleep. I’d sleep sixteen hours at a time. I didn’t want to play with my kids and the house was a disaster. I just couldn’t get things cleaned up because it was exhausting. It would take all day to get the laundry done. I didn’t have the energy to get things done and my husband was very unhappy with me. It was a huge strain on our relationship. I called Gary for help because we were at our wit’s end. I read the testimonials on the website and thought, “How could that possibly happen that fast?” Chronic Sleepiness Causes Marital Difficulty
"I read the other testimonials but I was doubtful. I decided just to go because I had nothing to lose at all. It surprised me that I had so much emotional stuff in my past. The doctors said that I was low on cortisol production and that’s why my energy was so low. They didn’t really have an answer to the cortisol problem. Since I have released so much anger in such a short time, my energy is back after eight years. I don’t know where my cortisol levels are, but I am feeling like a new person.
"We did about eight hours of treatment and I am feeling great. I get the laundry done in ten minutes and wonder why it took all day before. It’s been wonderful for me. I rate it four out of four on Gary’s scale. Right after the very first session I came home and spent three hours cleaning everything up . . . and I knew that something had changed. My husband works shifts and was sleeping and when he woke up, he couldn’t believe it. My kids were shocked and thought that Dad must have done the clean-up.
"When I first walked in here, if you had told me that I would get my house clean and enjoy doing it and play with my kids and go horse back riding again, I would have said, “Forget it, there’s no way!” I’m shocked at the changes. Now I want my house clean and tidy, whereas before I didn’t care. My best friend was depressed and I went over and helped her clean her place up -- talk about extra energy.
"This was definitely worth the money. My husband also came for treatment and after 3 weeks, we’re much closer. I’d tell anyone to definitely go. I learned to be in tune with myself . . . what is going on with me and who I really am."

“In 1998, I was in day surgery for varicose veins in both legs. After the surgery, I was sent home, without medication and still in much pain. Gary did one short session of hypnosis with me and something unbelievable happened. The intense pain vanished away and has never returned! I know that anyone reading this will simply not believe it, but it really happened. This may not happen for anyone else, but it sure happened for me. Varicose Veins
"There was no pain after the hypnosis session and the pain did not come back. My husband and family couldn’t believe it. Gary used a post-hypnotic suggestion that any further pain that I may experience would only be intense enough to act as a warning. I have had two broken limbs since then and only minimal pain. I thought that I had only sprained my wrist and when it was x-rayed, I found that it was badly fractured, yet it didn’t hurt that much. This has served me well over the last few years.
"We only use a small part of our brain power and this really proved it to me.”

"I quit smoking with Gary's treatments for close to two years before, but then I started again. It took two sessions this time, but I have quit again for 31 days now. I played the tapes up to twice a day and it wasn't too hard to quit. I had a few bouts of anger but it seems O.K. now...they are all past. The acupressure technique to control urges really helped. Quit Smoking
"I was surrounded recently by the guys who work for me and they all smoke. The atmosphere was polluted and my eyes watered and I coughed. I had to leave and I had no desire to smoke at all.
"I had it in my head that I was going to quit and I just needed some help getting over the hump. I believe in what you are doing and it is a great service."

“I was at a loss. I needed to find some help. I wasn’t going anywhere and I was scared that no one could help me. A friend recommended Gary. It was my first time for counselling and I was really nervous but also happy that I was taking a step to try and better myself. I felt lost . . . hopeless . . . like out in the forest and not knowing where to go. I had paranoia and fear and depression for so long, I thought sadness was normal. I could remember being happy until I was seven years old and then it changed. I had many failed relationships and I was becoming very anti-social, although I wanted to share with someone. As soon as someone got close, I’d put up walls. It was so frustrating. I was ready to cry all the time. Paranoia, Fear and Depression
"At first I didn’t know if this stuff could help me but I started doing it and it made a big difference pretty quickly. It really works. I was surprised that there was so much bothering me from my past, when I was really little. I had no idea that upsetting stuff was there until we treated it and I felt like a load had been removed from me.
"I’m sort of a spiritual person. I found the whole process fascinating. If I got any improvements, I didn’t expect it to happen so fast . . . only about 5 hours of treatments and there were big differences. A big plus is that I can treat myself now and I won't be always coming back in to see Gary forever.
"Gary has a scale of treatment success. Out of a possible 4, I rate it a definite 4, without question, and this is after two sessions. The fees were a pretty small price for how I feel now.
"Life is too good to suffer. There are so many people who need help and I want them to know that this worked for me. I’m smiling now as I think about this. I will be glad to share my experience with you. Just call Gary and he will put you in touch with me."

“I had a horrible fear of riding the elevator and it spread to everyday life situations that I felt uneasy about. Public washrooms became a problem . . . being confined in any way. It started thirty five years ago and was getting worse. I took electroconvulsive treatments to get rid of depression and took talk therapy thirty five years ago but it didn’t get rid of the fear. The talk therapy didn’t help at all. Phobias
"At first I wasn’t quite sure what we were doing. I tried the meridian therapy and it really worked well for me. When I first tried it, I thought, “What would people think?” But I do not care now because it works so well. I use it on all upsetting feelings all the time.
"Life is easier to cope with. The things that were bothering me may not be all totally, totally gone, but they are much easier to cope with because of the techniques. I recently took an elevator ride and I was fine. It is the second time in an elevator and I am O.K.
"I would rate the treatments a three our of a possible four. I am more peaceful and my hurtful feelings are a long way down. I think this type of therapy can help because it is not like the other types.”

“It was a constant battle trying to lose weight. It just kept creeping up and creeping up. I felt apathetic. I tried, through the years, every diet there is. I couldn’t keep motivated and I had no where else to turn. I saw Gary in 1998 and have lost over 30 pounds. This stayed off for almost 4 years, but recently I noticed it starting to come back so I came back to take care of it. Weight Loss
The new techniques were different from the hypnosis that I had the first time. It all seemed strange to me but it seemed to work. It was very comfortable, and because there was no hypnosis at all, I was very relaxed. I’ve got my motivation back. I feel totally positive, energized, happy to be alive and anxious to get on with life.
It’s so easy to use these new techniques and make them part of your life so quickly and it’s not a struggle. I’ve got control again."
March 19, 2003 update:
"I’ve kept thirty pounds off for almost five years now. During that five years I have had a total of 7 sessions. Since Christmas, 2002, I have been under more stress and a few pounds have snuck on, but I am confident they’ll be off as soon as I have time to pay attention to it. This type of treatment is definitely worthwhile."

“My child got help from Gary, so I decided to work on myself. I’ve let go of so many negative feelings that started when I was eight years old. It acted as a chain reaction that kept going over the years. My critical voice is not absolutely eliminated but it is greatly reduced and I have control over it now. I am more in control of my life and that was my big goal. I am making beneficial choices for myself rather than listening to other people. I have less negative thoughts about myself and have become more assertive. I’m not compelled to volunteer for everything. I’m taking better care of myself. Stress
I had a bad experience with regular therapy and would not go back to it. This whole experience has been supportive and comfortable for me. I’ve taken psychology courses and I think that this subconscious work has more impact. I would tell anyone not to be afraid of it. It is not difficult and can create major changes."

“I needed help taking exams but I also had problems with anger and past issues. My skepticism was very high because everyone makes such huge promises and it doesn’t work or last. After a while, I noticed the changes and my skepticism went down. It had to. Stress
I thought it would be like psychiatry sessions. They spend more time confusing you and it goes on and on and we only did three sessions here. It seemed so normal, no hypnosis, we just talked and used my subconscious mind and, without realizing it changes were occurring . . . unbelievable. After the second session I was laughing, joking, almost giddy for a week and a half. I was so euphoric that I thought it couldn’t possibly last. My girlfriend noticed the change. I enjoy being around people. I enjoy life so much now. I always felt so much better after each session and it seems to stay with you.
If someone is interested in getting over their past troubles, they should give it a whirl. Don’t judge Gary’s work the same as all the others. This is important work. Come in and go step by step and as you go through the procession. You will realize that you don’t have to reveal all the details of your past, yet it still works."

“I’ve had over ten years of Fibromyalgia problems. I tried hands on healing, using everything and anything to get over this. When you’re in pain all the time, you can’t be normal -- your mind is occupied with pain. I recognized the mind-body connection but I couldn’t find the tools to help me. No one knew how to get at this before. I read hundreds of self-help and natural healing books. I checked into everything . . . hope kept getting slimmer because it all failed. Fibromyalgia
I found out that my F.M. pain was about my rejection problem with mom. So we worked on that issue and it got rid of 75% of the pain -- overnight. It was awesome. I wouldn’t have believed it! I can get out of bed in the morning and stand up straight without pain and that hasn’t happened for ten years or more.
It’s been a month since the last session and the pain is still gone. The simplicity of the techniques surprised me. It is so simple and works so phenomenally well. Money is worthless compared to your health...there is so much to be gained if you give it a try.”
Follow up: April 15, 2003: ( 5 1/2 months since treatment) "My FM pain has been reduced by 75% or more since my last treatment. I am so impressed that I am seeing Gary for some other issues that I need to work on."

“I was terrified and angry that this person had done this to me. It was ruining my life. It was overwhelming. Everything happened at once -- within a few days. My house was burglarized and my credit cards were gone, plus my car. When I found this guy, I thought I would feel better but I didn’t. I couldn’t do my work. I took time off, I couldn’t think. He was still free and I was getting paranoid. Fear and Anxiety
I read all the testimonials on the website and I didn’t want to go to talk therapy and be there for months and months. I spent over two hours reading every testimonial fully from the website. It was hard to believe the testimonials but I kept an open mind...there had to be some truth to this.
I was surprised that we didn’t use hypnosis at all. It was surprising how the tape really helped. I could sleep again. I noticed right after the first session my anger was really down, I was more relaxed almost immediately and I could think clearly. There was such a big difference so fast. I was at Gary’s on Thursday and by Monday I went back to work just like my old self . . . what a relief to have my old life back."

“I had long term, almost unbearable overwhelm and stress. I was in a lot of physical pain. Stress
A friend who Gary treated recommended I come in. It took me six or seven months to finally phone and I am so glad I did. I feel free . . . that’s how to describe it. It’s only been two sessions and I now feel freer and happier than I have in years. I am sleeping better and have a lot less pain. I’m using very little ibuprofen now. I’ve had no wrist pain for over three weeks and my stress level is away down.
During the treatments, I felt totally in control and O.K. I got rid of a lot of anger quickly. I got to the core of my real feelings.
I have listened to positive thinking tapes before but Gary’s tape was exceptional. I am so impressed. It was only two sessions. We got right to the real issues right away and cleared it up. It didn’t drag out for months and months.”
March 8, 2003 update: "I've had pain in my wrist for years. When we treated for my emotional upsets, that pain immediately went away. It has not been back since. And that was three months ago. I'm feeling at least 50% better about everything that we worked on."

"I was very depressed and didn’t know where to turn for help. An inner voice said to call. I had very little skepticism. I had been reading about new stuff and alternative therapies for quite some time. I was surprised to learn that we wouldn’t have to use much hypnosis because I was concerned about whether I could be hypnotized or not. Fibromyalgia
My overall mental state is better because I have less baggage from my past. My fibromyalgia is still there, but weaker and more controllable and it’s been over a month since I finished treatments -- everything came together to help me out. It certainly has helped with my confidence, attitude and pain management. Overall, this was much, much more effective than the treatments I got from psychiatrists.
I have a new attitude . . . 'this is just a momentary setback, I’m o.k., I’m doing fine.' The best attitude to these treatments is to take a deep breath, relax and open yourself up. It helped me open up to God’s love -- that’s a big part of it. I’m a spiritual person and this really helped me in that direction.
I hope that my recommendation really helps to convince others to pay attention to these new techniques. It’s hard to define or analyze how it works. I’ve told a lot of people about this and how you helped me.”

"I was in dire straits. I couldn’t work, I could hardly function. I had lack of concentration, loss of self-esteem, I was fit to be tied. Shortness of breath, chest pain, very nervous and basically no confidence in where to go, what to do or how to do it . . . in bad shape. Before, in church, I panicked and had to leave all the time. It would build up till I couldn’t stand it. Depression
It took five sessions but I never expected to feel this good. I was recommended by a close friend who said, 'If it hadn’t been for Gary Lowe, I wouldn’t be living today.' I respected this gentleman and thought that maybe you could help me.
After the first session, I noticed a relief. My self-confidence had drastically changed. I noticed something dramatic. Your techniques kicked me out of this pit. The techniques were strange but I could really tell I was getting results, so I kept on going with them.
Some individuals treated me pretty badly and I cleared it all up. It was a big leap ahead. I felt like a new man. I noticed things next week, slowly, daily. It was very exciting -- almost to the point of unbelievable. I was getting myself back once again. All the physical problems just left very quickly as well. Even my love of golf came back.
My connection with God was repaired. I got great peace of mind from this. It has all come back bigger and better and as good as it ever was. It is wonderful, very wonderful. I can do things now without being a worry wart, without saying, 'I wonder if I can really do this.' There’s not doubt, there’s confidence. I’ve had a 360 degree turn around. It gives me joy . . . I’m back to feeling human, period.
These treatments got extremely positive results for me very quickly, so don’t knock it if you haven’t tried it. If you feel like I did, come in, be open-minded, be at ease, trust -- and very miraculous or unbelievable things will happen if you let them happen. I never thought, by any stretch of the imagination, that doing what we did would get me to this point. It took five sessions and was worth the money. At the start it seemed expensive, but my state of mind counts.
I feel like living, I’m out of this pit. I would pay ten fold for this. It’s invaluable.”

"Gary Lowe is an amazing, compassionate man. At first glance his unpresuming appearance is routine. One would scarcely guess the depth of person enclosed. Depression
But Gary was one of my last hopes. I gave him a chance.
I had tried everything, conventional allopathic drugs, homeopathic/naturopathic regimes, psychiatry, cognitive therapy, Healing Touch, Bioneurofeedback, among other things, and still I was debilitatingly 'depressed.' My life was a mess and I wanted out.
I went through three episodes of what was diagnosed 'clinical depression' over a period of four years. I was out of control, untrue to myself.
Gary and his methodology are unconventional: they do however build and instill a sense of worth, of empowerment. I followed his directions to the letter, even when I thought they were silly and doubted their worth.
When I faltered, I called and Gary was there for me. He kept me alive . . . it was that bad. For that I thank him. I thank him so much because now I can and am doing great things -- things that I had given up on, that I thought I was no longer capable of."

“I was very depressed and had very little to no self-confidence at all. I was just down. There was a marriage breakup in November and I saw a psychiatrist and it was just, 'here’s some more pills and I’ll see you in a month.' I needed more than this...I needed to get to the root of who Lori really was and find out what really was going on. I had a severe spending problem that I couldn’t control and it got so bad it was wrecking my life. I received some of your information by mail and read the testimonials on your webpage. I recognized several names and people told me you could be trusted. I never honestly thought that I would be contributing to your testimonials later on, but I am now happy to do this. Compulsive Spending
I was probably less skeptical than others. Many people that I spoke to told me how credible you were and that you had been doing this for many years. It was incredible about my negative birth experience that we discovered and how it influenced my whole life. Everything we discovered that traumatized me at 3 days of birth was totally confirmed by my mother. I have seen a psychiatrist and been in talk therapy so I had some background in this area. In my wildest dreams, I would never believe that there was a connection to that infant trauma and my current problems. There is no way that talk therapy could get so deep, so fast. Ten or twenty hours of talk therapy couldn’t come near what happened in one session. I’d still be spinning my wheels if I hadn’t come here. I am sure those people meant well but they didn’t have the tools that Gary has. I dreaded those other sessions but I looked forward to every session here. I was excited about coming to the sessions because I always felt so good every time I came to a session.
It was worth every cent I paid. Anti-depressants cost a lot of money, especially over a life time and I now feel that I can be free of medications and I will easily recover the cost. How can you put a price on something like this? I encourage anyone who is hesitating to get this kind of help to call. I would be glad to talk to you by phone and just tell you how great this has been."

“When I came in I was full of anger and resentment towards other people and myself. I was paranoid and thought that everyone was against me. I was having serious panic attacks, couldn’t sleep and it was getting worse all the time. This had been going on for years but this last year really hit me hard. I felt that I was failing in every aspect of my life... I was at the end of my rope. Everything I did seem to have a negative slant on it. I couldn’t see good in anything. Insights and Peace
I rate this four out of a possible four on Gary’s scale of treatment effectiveness. My panic attacks are gone, I‘m sleeping fine and I definitely have a positive outlook on my life now. There are still people that don’t like me and I’m O.K. with it now. I’m off all my meds and the real beauty of the treatment is that it has given me a goal to my meditation. I can now meditate regularly and benefit from it. In meditation I can now solve problems and resolve issues... I couldn’t do that before. I never thought it was possible before. I also finally gained insight into why I was the way I was. It all makes sense and I have this new sense of peace in my life.
Even though it took seven sessions, I consider this rapid. I would never believe that I could make these changes so fast. I hoped that I would feel better, but I never believed, ever, that I would feel this good. This is great.
The biggest surprise was how much my meditation has improved. I was sleep deprived and it was feeding on itself and it’s over now. For me this has been an educational process as well. It was almost like I needed this breakdown in order to start really healing.
This was about $1800 worth of treatment and it was worth it because it is a life altering situation. In seven sessions, I have gained so much... it’s a gift. I’d tell new people to open up their minds and consider Gary’s office as a sanctuary and to relax and follow his instructions. I’m amazed at the extent that I have benefited .”

“When I came in, I was in rough shape... the end of the rope, no light at the end of the tunnel. The smallest chore was overwhelming. I couldn’t focus, I couldn’t function. I was paralyzed with depression. I think everyone has skepticism in the back of their mind when they try this. I heard your radio program and phoned... I was desperate. No Hope
I regained my self-esteem and self-confidence right off the bat. I felt better right after the first session and I looked forward to each session because I’d feel even better each time. It was a relief to come to each session and know I’d leave feeling better. I can now live my daily life and get through it. I get up now, clean up the house, eat well and actually look forward to the day... before, I’d roll over and go back to sleep.
I’ve got the tools to keep on feeling better even though there are some tough times ahead. The treatments didn’t take long and are definitely worth every cent. I would have paid anything to get the relief I have now. I thought therapy would take forever. I’d advise anyone to keep coming and you’ll feel better. Take advantage of the tapes and instructions...use them and it’ll work.”

“I was smoking 2 packs or more a day. I tried the patch, the gum, zyban and even hypnotism before coming to see Gary. Nothing worked. Slight Weight Gain After Quitting
We did 4 sessions and I just naturally quit. It seemed like a normal procession with your counselling and I just came to a point where I quit. I was working the oil patch up north and I had to space out the visits over several months. It wasn’t a sudden thing. I worked into it and I quit. The first week was pretty hard, but after that it got much easier and it’s been over 3 months now. The urge control techniques worked really well. It’s more than paid for itself because at ten bucks a pack it doesn’t take long to get the money back.
I’ve got stress-proofing for the future because I use a technique that keeps emotional upsets down and in perspective, so I don’t think I’ll give in to an urge if I get upset. I just treat myself for high stress and I’m O.K. I have a stressful job in the oil patch and these stress techniques are working very well.
Give it a try, for sure. I’ve tried for years and couldn’t do it and now I’m a non-smoker. Just follow the instructions and it works good. There is an occasional urge but it’s short and weak and it seems to get weaker with time. It’s not a problem. I put on a few pounds, but now it’s coming off. Even if I’m five pounds overweight, it was still worth it. The weight control suggestions on the tape seem to be doing their job, because it’s starting to come off now.”

“I smoked menthol cigarettes for years, just because I really enjoyed the taste,especially first thing in the morning with coffee. I looked at the website and spotted a friend that gave a quit smoking testimonial, so I phoned him and he said it really worked well. Menthol Cigarettes
After the first session, when I left, I thought that I had just thrown my money away. That evening I played the self hypnosis tape when I went to bed. Next morning, I couldn’t believe it. When I went to light a cigarette, I almost vomited and these were the menthol cigarettes that I loved the taste of. It was unbelievable. It simply tasted awful and I couldn’t smoke it. This happened because of the tape and I still have no idea what is on that tape because I always fall asleep. I wouldn’t believe this could happen so fast.
The whole therapy made me realize that I was smoking for reasons I never was aware of. I was really smoking because I needed to get my mind of stresses that were bothering me. I got rid of the feeling of being unlovable. Gary’s system showed me that my problem wasn’t really about cigarettes, but about the upsets in my life that kept me smoking.
I get up in the morning and feel like singing now. I still had some urges but I could work through them just as Gary taught me. I followed his instructions and it worked. I would tell any skeptical smoker that they should expect the unexpected with this treatment and just follow instructions.

“We were not communicating, but I was unaware of a real problem until everything blew up on me. There was a big trust problem. I found out quite a few things all at once and it almost ended our marriage. I was in shock. Marital Bombshell
It took years to let our marriage dissolve to this point and we expected that it would take years of therapy to have it recover. I was skeptical about the testimonials and just didn’t believe that you could get over something as traumatic as this without a long, lengthy process. I expected to be in therapy for months or years.
The subconscious mind techniques surprised and baffled me. I though that I knew what was going on, but my subconscious seemed to be right almost all the time. I couldn’t believe that there was this other part of me that knew how to get over the upsets. The techniques were so different and effective and now I have learned to use them on my own. They’re mine to use for life now. I can handle future upsets with these techniques without depending on Gary. It’s wonderful that there is this independence from always having to get the therapists’support. The most surprising thing was how fast it worked. We spent about eleven hours in therapy and that was it.
We’re communicating more, the pain and mistrust is gone...it seemed to have cleaned out the closet for both of us. The intense hurt and pain of a month ago is just not there any more. The techniques really got me through the upset and fast. It’s like we have a fresh start now. It feels like a new honeymoon.
At first I thought...this is a lot of money...but if you look at the short amount of time it took us, compared to talk therapy that might go on for months or years, I would definitely say it was money very well spent. It was a heck of a lot cheaper than a divorce.
I rate it 4 out of 4 definitely, on Gary’s scale. We were desperate when we started. The word that comes to mind is...it’s like a miracle...I read where people said that on the testimonials but I was still skeptical...but now I totally agree with the testimonials. I thought that they all can’t be lying, but it can’t be as good as it’s made out to be...but here I am adding our names to the testimonials.We were desperate at the start and just picking names out of the yellow pages. I am so glad we chose Gary and that he got back to us so fast.”

"I was totally depressed, desperate, crying all the time. I felt totally worthless and had nowhere to turn. I was skeptical but desperate. I knew the other types of talk therapy didn't work because I had already been there for over 3 years and it didn't help at all. In talk therapy I would bring the emotions up and then have to repress them again and again. Each session of talk therapy I would bring the emotions up and then have to put them back. They never left . . . just up and down for 3 years. Depression
Your treatments really helped me. Some issues that never came up in the sessions just went away completely and we never even addressed them. The hatred I had towards some people just vanished. I don't have any hatred and I feel good about so many things . . . especially about myself and my life. Some of these things that have been hurting me since I was a very small child are just gone. Everything has shifted from black to white.
With your therapy, the ugly emotions left and haven't come back. I don't know how it works, but they are finally gone. After the first session and for a week, I felt that nothing had changed. Then I got up on Saturday morning and it was just like a whole new world. I didn't think there was any way, humanly possible, to rid myself of some of those emotions. I never expected to feel better and I would not talk about this to anyone unless I was sure of my improvements. It took a while for the changes to manifest themselves and then I told my friend to come and see you. It even seemed to work against my so-called better judgement.
I'd be glad to talk to anyone about this now because I rate it 4 out of 4 on Gary's treatment scale. You don't have to believe me . . . just come in and try it out. It sure has made a difference in my life."

"I felt down about myself but I was determined to find something that worked. I have been depressed for some time and was on medication. There was a great deal of sadness and loss in my life. I felt skeptical that anything could really help but was willing to give it a try. Depression and Weight
I was totally surprised at how well this has gone. I trust myself to make good decisions. I am so much more positive now. It was worth the fee because you are talking about your mental and physical health here. Once I got the emotional turmoil out of my life, I could stop feeding my emotions. I have lost 10 pounds in 2 months since we started and feel really good about it.
I rate the treatment four out of four. I am so much more comfortable in a social setting now. I've been in talk and group therapy before and found it so frustrating compared to this. In these treatments things really happen. The changes come from within, not like just talking about it. . . . I lose about one pound a week. The amazing thing is that I now like to exercise. I hated even the thought of getting on my bike before and now I enjoy it. This therapy is worth trying by all means."
Update: May 22, 2002
“It’s been 5 months now and I am still losing weight and better yet, I now sleep like a log. When I first came in I was feeling totally defeated. We cleared out so much emotional garbage that I just had to feel better. There has been one amazing change. I now really enjoy exercise and I hated it before. I used to really hate it. It was a huge block to losing weight. I never would have believed this, ever. We treated this block just once and it was gone. I am also a lot more comfortable drinking more water regularly.
I had feelings of abandonment from the time my mom drove out of the driveway when I was four years old. I am no longer haunted by this. I’m handling my social stresses really well. These treatments have leveled the playing field for me and I’m not buying into the manipulation and control like before. I got so many negative messages from my childhood, but I’m over it now. It’s really freeing... after all these years. I’m making healthy choices now, without compulsion. Freeing is the best word to describe what happened to me in four sessions.
Originally I came in for the pounds and these treatments healed my past and that is more important than the weight. I’m still losing, but the peace of mind is more important. For five months I have been losing and it has not been hard. I’m only losing about one pound a week but it’s working. 18 pounds are off and none have come back. I don’t listen to the tape anymore because I just make the correct food choices on my own now.
I have been through years of regular therapy and I came in here and got relief within hours... truly. I have been going to therapy since I was fifteen, off and on over all the years. They also treated me for the same issues, abandonment, loneliness... I understood the logic but nothing changed. They said,”You’re fine now,” but I wasn’t. This type of therapy has been a really good experience for me.
I want people to know that they don’t have to go through years of therapy any more. Try this and you will understand. It’s almost like it’s magic. You don’t have to analyze everything to death... the emotions just shift automatically. It just happens without worrying or even thinking about it. I can’t say enough about this treatment.”

“It’s been over 18 months since I had 4 sessions. I have taken off 20 pounds and it has not returned . . . it’s been effortless. I don’t even think about it -- it just stays off. That’s a first. The satisfaction that I feel inside has become a huge bonus because I originally came in to lose weight and I was unaware of the emotional garbage that I had.
The biggest benefit is not about weight loss . . . it’s about my own personal peace. I have good self-esteem and am much calmer when dealing with problems. I feel totally content. The whole program has been very successful for me.

"I thought I was going crazy and the mental health nurses didn't help. I was trapped in my house for 3 months and no one could help me. My friends would do my shopping . . . it was awful. The only place I felt safe was at home. If I tried to leave, I felt I would die. My doctor gave me drugs but it didn't help. I was desperate and terrified and going crazy. Can't Leave Home
I worked with Gary over the long-distance phone from Red Deer for 4 straight hours. The treatment worked. It is four out of four on the treatment scale. I will tell my doctor about this and anyone who wants to listen . . . there is help out there after all. Talking about the problem with mental health didn't help and I didn't think Gary's stuff would work at all. I was so skeptical on the phone when we started.
I was doubtful for the first hour, then I started to feel better and by the end of 4 hours I could leave my house and go to the corner store. I did this and was pretty calm so I came home and called Gary and told him that it actually worked. Yesterday I went downtown and was fine. I don't want to go home now because I was a prisoner in my house for 3 months. I enjoy being out all the time. No one deserves to go through this. I am so glad it is over. My friends ask if it was worth the money and I tell them I would have paid millions to get over this. How much is my life worth? I want my doctor and mental health to learn about this.
I truly didn't think this could work. I am so grateful for Gary's help. I can leave home anytime now and it has been like this for three months. If you doubt that this is too good to be true, you're wrong . . . it really happened. My friend said that I am a walking billboard for Gary."

"I had workplace problems. Certain people were robbing me of my self-confidence. I have done many important things in my life but I was feeling weak and unhappy. Workplace Stress
After treatments, I have put this behind me. The problems are still there, but they don't get to me. I use to hate work but it's O.K. now. I was really uncertain if this would work. After the first week I felt changes happening and I wiped out the big problem at home without Gary's direct help.
I wanted to try this because I knew this was not like regular counselling. I had no idea how long it would take...but 6 hours is not long. The acupressure really helped. The treatment doesn't create a dependency on drugs or the therapist and I like that.
I'm in charge of my emotions now."

"I would cry a lot, even in church. I was feeling so down because I had just lost my job and I was taking a very tough college course. The exams had me in tears then Gary taught me a technique to let me get rid of emotional upset and it works so well for me. It has made such a difference in my life. If I feel down, I can raise that level until I'm feeling better because I can make the problems go away. I am just amazed. The difference is unreal. What a gift. I use it all the time now. Unreal How The Problems Go Away
Gary first helped me 3 years ago with weight loss and now I can control my emotional upsets. The treatments are fascinating. People should definitely try this. I didn't think that I'd be receptive to this because I had been in therapy before and it was so painful. This is so simple, and for it to work so well, is amazing."

"The smallest things would trigger me off. I'd get angry about the smallest things because I felt other people weren't up to my standards. I'd hurt those closest to me. I really wanted something good to happen because I was losing control. After the first session something changed, everyone noticed. There was a 100% improvement one day after the first session. My wife kept looking for the old angry responses that weren't there. She said it almost scared her because it was like I was someone else. . . . I was calm and understanding and without anger. Uncontrollable Anger
I didn't know what to expect and everything in the treatments surprised me. I am totally shocked at how fast changes were made. It was worth every cent because it was so fast. If someone is skeptical about this, I understand because that is how I felt. I had done everything I could on my own to beat the anger and it seemed impossible. Then it suddenly changed. My wife is still amazed. It's been over 3 months now"

"When I would see an attractive girl, I would always compare myself to her and feel horrible about myself. I would want to throw up. When I'd look in the mirror, I hated what I saw. I'd call myself names and then go straight to the fridge and fill my face. I was full of guilt for just existing and I would worry about what people thought of me. After treatments, we went to Edmonton for 4 days and there were pretty women everywhere and I felt fine. Hated What I Saw
At first I thought the treatment was kind of weird but now I think it's pretty cool. It was worth the money because I had been through five years of counselling before without results. I figured that it would be worth a try and just kept an open mind. I had two friends that you helped earlier, so I had nothing to lose. On your scale, I score it four out of four.

“My life was a real fight and struggle all the way. It was tough to continue coping and carrying on. I was totally and completely depressed. I really disliked myself. I thought that I wasn’t a fit mother and that I had really wasted my life. I had all sorts of reasons to beat myself up and I did this all my life. I was so drained and exhausted that I couldn’t even take a shower without being in a state of collapse. I had no energy and I was draining my life away. I worried constantly. Improving the Quality of Life
I tried so many things before so I was skeptical about this at first. I was used to something that seemed to help for a while but then it would all relapse. When I came in, I was really grasping at straws. My daughter got treated and talked me into it.
It was a new approach and very surprising because it just seemed too easy to do...but it has worked and seems to be still effective. A big change is that I can deal with the stresses in my life as they come up, without Gary or anyone else. I have control in my life. I never expected to ever feel this good. I thought the misery that I was used to was just part of old age...and there was no help. I thought this worn out feeling was just something that you had to accept because I saw it in relatives and other people all the time.
I now feel that I’ve got a lot of good years and I am going to enjoy it. I’ve learned that, first, you must be happy within and then you can deal with life. Now I feel that I have a lot to live for. I’m off my medications and I can cope with life and its stresses. My self-esteem and self-confidence is better and I’m feeling happier with my circumstances. I don’t feel that I have to seek approval anymore. I can trust my own judgment because I know I’m O.K. It’s a great freedom to have. A huge weight is gone. I’d tell a new client to keep an open mind. I highly recommend it to improve the quality of your life. I score it 3.5 out of 4 only because I’ve just started to lose weight. When the weight is off, I give it a big 4. It was worth every cent because you cannot put a value on your life."

“ I knew what I had to do to help myself but I simply couldn’t do it. I’m a therapist in Grand Prairie and this is a common problem...being able to help others is often easier than helping yourself. I was surprised at how quickly Gary was able to help me. I could see the results in a very short time...I didn’t expect that. These techniques cleared out the blocks to my personal improvement fast and easily. There’s no more internal struggle and my internal life is peaceful now. That’s what’s making it all so easier. Therapist Gets Help
A big advantage to this therapy is that I have learned to clear out emotional upsets on my own without seeing Gary. Most people just can’t relate to this therapy at first because changes aren’t supposed to be this quick and easy. You’ve got to really experience this treatment to appreciate its power. This stuff can even get rid of physical pain.
It’s given me the freedom to lose weight and not be obsessed or preoccupied about it. I’m a very busy person and I don’t have time to worry about my diet and proper eating habits. I just seem to be eating healthy without thinking much about it. I suddenly stopped eating all the food on my plate and I have always done this...all my life. It just changed overnight. I rate it 4 out of 4 on Gary’s scale. I’d be glad to share this experience with anyone."

“I had a real problem with chewing and partying...things were getting out of control. I thought I could handle it myself but I really needed help. I was determined to beat this but I couldn’t do it on my own...no matter how hard I tried. Chewing Tobacco and Partying
The therapy was different than I expected but it worked and that’s all that’s important. It’s been over 2 years now and I still have no desire to chew and I only drink occasionally. I rate it 4 out of 4 absolutely. I am still surprised at how easy it was. I’d recommend it to anyone.”

"As far back as I remember these were some of the feelings I have had; anger for no reason, unable to concentrate, lonely when everyone you love is around you, cannot face the day as a wife, a mother. I could not drive my car, answer the phone, open the mail, talk to people or leave home. I was unable to see humour in anything. I could not smile at the good things in life. I could not get off the couch or out of bed all day. Life was out of control. I did not want to go on, life was not worth living the way I was. Life Is Not Worth Living
I functioned for about a year on the medications, slowly the medications stopped working and I started to crumble again. The doctors changed my [medications], added another drug and by now I had taken prescription sleeping pills for 3 years. Prior to this I tried natural remedies and had taken anything I could without prescription to get some rest. Talking about my problems did not work.
You're probably wondering if I ever lived a normal life. Well, I worked all my life, have had my own businesses. I am a mother of two and as far as appearances go, most people thought I was very capable, strong and out going. I have good social skills, my life and home are run in good order, my sons are great and I have a wonderful husband.
But emotionally . . . this was not the case. I grew up in a world where mental illness, nerve problems and not being able to cope were not allowed. I suppose this is why I functioned for as long as I did. I did not want anyone to know that I felt the way I did because that would mean I was crazy! If I could just hold on maybe it would go away and I would feel normal, . . . but I could not.
In March I was alive but not living and the medications were now making me physically ill. I was giving up! I believe we all have some sort of higher power looking out for us and maybe that is what made me pick up the phone book that day. I looked at the Yellow Pages and found an ad for Gary Lowe. Maybe he could help me? I phoned Gary and he told me about a new type of treatment he was doing, would I try it? I made my first appointment.
March 7, I walked through the door to Gary's office. I was very skeptical but what was the harm in trying, life was not worth living the way I was: afraid, insecure, no good to anyone, not even myself.
Today I wish we had videotaped my progress. If you could only see the broken person that walked through that door and a few sessions later, the person who walked out! I can now do all the things on the list that you read at the beginning. I do not live in fear of tomorrow. I feel better everyday!
Please keep an open mind, however unbelievable this treatment sounds like, however kooky it appears because it gave me back my life! Try it! You have got nothing to lose and everything to gain!
P. S.: If you want to call me to talk about it, please do!"

Problem existed for 22 years"I am writing to tell you what a difference your treatments made to me in just 8 hours. Everything is better in my life. I am more happy, confident and secure than I have been in years. Self Esteem Problem
I used to suffer from severe panic attacks. I thought I was having a heart attack. I would get 4 or 5 attacks a day for several years. It was unbearable. I could not focus on life when I was panicking about everything, . . . it was affecting my family as well.
It has been 11 months now and I have had only a very weak 5 minute panic attack that I easily handled with the techniques you taught me.
I was doubtful at first. . . . I did not know what to think about the techniques, but after I found how calming and relaxing it was, I enjoyed using them. It is natural to be suspicious at first when you try something new. When I think back about how much things have changed, I realize it was worth it. Something like this can make such a big difference in your life with the problem that you have had for so long. I think it is more than worth it. I am over several years of panic in only 8 hours of treatments.
We dealt with a lot of issues that have bothered me for years. I can now look in the mirror and see someone I like. The acupressure, clinical and self hypnosis have really helped me. Thank you so much for the difference you have made in my perception of the world. I know other people like myself can benefit from this."

Problem existed for 2 years (back to the top)"I have an amazing story to tell. I was diagnosed with M. S. about 11 years ago. From the time that I was diagnosed, I have had no feeling in either of my legs to about mid thigh and my hands go numb from time to time. I have been having trouble with my eyes and muscle spasms in my face and I have been pretty much in chronic pain for the last 2 years. I have had to quit work - so that was really difficult. M.S. and Chronic Fatigue
Recently my sister-in-law gave me Gary's name. . . . I was at the end, . . . so I felt, what have I got to lose.
After my first visit, I was so amazed. After the first session with Gary, my right leg was not numb. I could feel it for the first time in 11 years.
I have only had 4 sessions and I just feel wonderful. There are no words to explain it. I feel great. I feel that I have got my life back. I was to the point where I could not even plan a day, . . . all of a sudden I would just be feeling rotten. Since I have been going to Gary my friends and family just can not believe what a better outlook I have on life. I am the one whose in control now."
22 Months Later: "The MS is really stable. The thing that I have noticed since going to Gary is that I am really not afraid anymore because I know that if I have pain or numbness that I can get rid of it.
My physician gave his approval for this treatment and has referred quite a few patients to Gary. He was really surprised at the results that I got, but he was really open minded.
If anyone has any reservations, just give Gary a call."

I was very skeptical at first, but I was amazed after the first session. I have had only 3 sessions and I have control of the pain. Who would ever believe it. I have not had a real major headache for over a week and that is really like half a miracle for me." Migraines
Over 3 Years Later: "It did work and it is still working 3 years later. I used to go at least twice a month to the hospital to get injections to relieve the pain and I would swallow 6 Tylenol at a time. Now I take no medication. Now I can handle a migraine in 15 minutes, if it comes. They only come about once a month and they are weak. They used to come almost every day. I can lead a life now, . . . they used to destroy me.
In the first session I was amazed because I came in with a terrible migraine and I went out without it, very relaxed. I would score the treatment about 3 out of 4 or somewhere around 80% over the last 3 years because weak ones still show up now and then.
I would say, give it a try. Do not stay in pain, . . . there is nothing to lose."

Problem existed for 10 years"Gary was recommended to me by a good friend who saw him for a pain management problem. I told him, . . . you are dealing with a stubborn guy, . . . I am such a skeptic. I went for weight loss but found there were other underlying problems. It used to be so bad, . . . certain songs would play on the radio and I would just start crying, . . . I did not know why. Incomplete grieving
The techniques were unusual but they worked immensely for me in the first session to solve some issues that I did not even know I had . . . with my sister's dying . . . even though I did not think it would work. It is amazing how it works. . . . I was treated for only a total of 11 hours and I was conscious and aware the whole time. There is a huge weight off my shoulders and the acupressure techniques worked right at home.
I have now started a healthy relationship with . . . those people after 27 years. The changes are huge.
I was really angry, in a rage. . . . I erased it quickly and even forgot about it the next day.
The neatest thing about these techniques is . . . I can teach others how to overcome their negativity.
On a scale of 0 to 4, I rate my improvements a 5. Right off the scale!
My close friend agrees that I am a lot more peaceful and laid back now.
Do not feel that it will only work for a successful business man like myself. I would be glad to talk to anyone about this. Call me anytime."
3 Months Later: "I have taken off 39 pounds in 3 months and not an ounce has come back. It is amazing. I have gone up and down constantly over the last 25 years. This is the first time it has not come back. I am in a place now where I have not been for 25 years. I feel great now, . . . but I had to get rid of my negative emotions before I could get rid of the weight. I discovered so much about myself.
I work in the food industry and I am surrounded by delicious foods everyday but I never gave in. I can beat any urges to overeat now. The techniques are awesome. At first, it is hard to believe because they are so simple. The more I use them, the better it gets.
It is staying off. To me, that is amazing! This was one of the best investments in myself that I have ever made. It was money so well spent. I am referring people to you just by telling them my story."

There were great changes in the first session. Acupressure really works, . . . the subconscious mind is the best way to go. I have done regular talk therapy and it only helped a little.
My outside problems, that I cannot control, are even greater than before, but they do not consume all my time and energy anymore. Anytime a (personal) problem comes up, I use the system to get rid of it.
My health has improved to the point that my doctor reduced my medication and canceled an operation that I was to have, . . . he knew it was all stress related.
There has been a total turn around. I even taught a friend how to do it (instant stress reduction). I am willing to talk to anyone about this. Phone me anytime you want. I have become a believer."

My fear was so strong that I would run into people trying to get away and hurt myself and them. I was in such a panic I could fall into the fire. Severe Moth Phobia
When I started treatment, I thought the acupressure was silly in a way. I was skeptical for a little while, . . . the pressure points soothed me, . . . it is like a relaxation as well as getting over your problem. It does not take long, . . . 60 seconds or so.
It does work no matter how skeptical you are, . . . you will change your mind fairly quickly. you do not have to believe in it, . . . it just works.
My family is in disbelief. I am not freaking out anymore. My husband and sons are still amazed. They watch me carefully when a moth is around expecting me to freak out again. They do not even get my attention anymore, no nervousness, no nausea, nothing. I can even pick up dead ones and put them in the garbage. I got struck in the face with a moth and I just kept playing cards. My 2 sisters thought, . . . that is it, she is going to go gonzo, . . . that is a little too much to take, . . . but I just continued on. My sisters just stared in disbelief.
I could never walk in the bush even though I loved it, . . . now I am OK. I found out that this terror started when I was 4 years old. I have had it for 34 years and it only took 2 hours to get over it.

I came to see you because my sister got over a drastic fear of moths in just 2 hours of treatment with you. It must be magic because she had that fear forever, . . . we told her she was going to have a heart attack if she does not get it figured out soon. It was unbelievable, the change in her, so I came in.
We did 5 hours of treatment and I have freedom and energy, . . . learning to relax, live for the moment, give up worrying about the future. I discovered that I had been punishing myself all my life. Since we discovered that in the first session, everything has changed. It is even better than finding the last piece of the jig-saw puzzle. On a an improvement scale of 0 to 5, I would rate it 6,7, or 8. It is just amazing and that not lying or B. S.
The first time using the techniques, I felt silly, but it helps you get there, to get focused. I would tell anyone, . . . try it, . . . there will be a light. It is magic. . . . I would be honoured to talk to anyone about this.
One of my favorite chocolate things, . . . macaroons, is under control. I had an strong urge for macaroons and I rubbed and pressed it away immediately. The craving was gone and would not come back. I know that this rubbing and pressing technique will give me control over food cravings because it worked so well for all my other issues."

I did not like how I looked, my photos disturbed me, I would not go out in public without my friends to back me up. Insecurity
I felt awkward with the techniques the first time, then it got comfortable and I enjoy it. It is easier to do when you know it is really helping. Rubbing and pressing was the best part, . . . it was most effective for me. The tapes helped too because I could use them passively each night.
I can talk to people easily now and if people put me down, I know that they have a problem, . . . it does not bother me anymore. My self esteem is much better now. If I am mad or upset I can be over it within minutes, even seconds, using these techniques. I even took myself out to dinner alone. All my problems are cut down to a manageable level and I can control my emotions now. There is more calmness. I am now a very relaxed person. I can use these tools on my own. I just could not imagine going through the rest of my life like I was. . . . I would just be dysfunctional. I thought this would take years of work, not 4 hours.

Problem existed for 11 years"In February 1997 I quit smoking in 2 sessions. I quit so easily, . . . no anger and no weight gain, . . . at no time was there any upset. It was such a pleasant way to quit smoking. The fun part was that I felt so good about it. To this day, I have no desire to smoke and I have never had any urges at all. Smoking and Alcohol
I returned to see Gary because of alcohol. It was becoming a crutch. My entire life was down, down, down and I could not quit drinking. I could not think of anything positive, but I did not want to smoke, . . . ever.
I came and we had a session and I truly walked out a different person. The week following proved that. I lost my urge to drink completely and became focused on my self confidence. Things that troubled me no longer troubled me, work was less hectic and I feel like my old self. I can joke around, life has lightened up. I feel much happier.
My subconscious mind knew more than I ever did. I now know that the muscle testing works whether I want to believe it or not. I have almost forgotten how miserable I was. Life is so different just 2 weeks later, you just do not believe it, because you feel so well. There is such a sense of freedom, self confidence, free of guilt, . . . it is a good feeling.
Even though the techniques appear strange, I would say to anyone who has the opportunity, . . . try it. You can not lose."

Problem existed for 22 years (back to the top)"I have been terrorized by dentists, . . . I put off going for 8 years. Gary just showed me the rubbing and pressing technique to eliminate dental anxiety and I did it only twice before the next visit to the dentist. I went to the dentist and in a situation where I would normally be quite stressed. . . . I was getting all this drilling done. . . . I almost dozed off, . . . totally unprecedented. There was absolutely no stress at all. It was excellent. Quite remarkable. Fear and Peak Performance
I thought that it was just a miraculous coincidence, but a week later, Gary showed me how the same technique could help to improve my golf game. This was my chance to see if the dentist phenomena was an accident or not. I started doing the same technique for my golf game.
On a round of 9, I would normally shoot about 53 to 55, . . . my scores are now consistently in the mid 40's, . . . always about a 10 to 15 stroke reduction. I just rub and press only once, before I tee off, . . . that is all! I can now just think about doing it and it works fine. It is made my golf game a lot more fun, that is for sure.
I am just amazed. It is an exciting technique and one I am very happy to have discovered with Gary's help. I am getting excellent results, . . . very impressive."

It was fun, it was great, . . . all my play-off nervousness was gone. There is a big change in my attitude now, I was in a terrible slump for over a year. I am more coordinated and playing much better, my confidence level is 100%. Peak Performance
It is so surprising because we only did 2 sessions, . . . most people would not believe it, . . . it is pretty amazing, actually, . . . it is gone from black to white. The inner game is what really counts, . . . there is no question about it, acupressure really helped."

Problem existed for 20 years"The older I got, the more afraid of things I got. I was afraid of everything. A Lifetime of Fear and Anxiety
Immediately after the third session, my fears left. I was totally surprised and very grateful. I have a feeling of total, total freedom. Absolutely great!
When I went home after our third session, I was able to go down the slide at out pool, which I was never able to do because I was petrified. I could not even climb to the top of it, never mind go down. I was like a 3 year old kid, like my little grand daughter, the first time I went down the slide. My husband was in disbelief.
I would never swim alone for fear of drowning. Now I can do that also.
I was afraid of heights. Now I can look over things, look over the edge of buildings and bridges. I was petrified of bees, now it does not bother me. I just do not freak out when I see one coming near me.
At first the techniques seemed silly but they made me feel better, even the first night after my session. Any situation now, where I do not like my emotions, I use the techniques and I feel better within minutes. It just help totally, tremendously. It is unbelievable, after 40 years, I feel great after only 3 sessions. I am not depressed anymore. I am more self confident and happy with myself.
The rubbing and pressing stuff even controls my cravings for junk foods.
If I was a new client, I would keep at it until the third session because that is when it all changed for me. You should also realize that hypnosis is just like day dreaming. You may wonder if your really hypnotized, but you are because things are happening, changing. It is so subtle and soft.
I would rate the results right now at 3 out of 4, but because I am not done yet, in a couple of weeks I would probably give it a 4.
How can you be afraid of something all your life, then suddenly not be afraid? To never be able to do something all your life, then after treatment, to just go home and do it, . . . it is just unbelievably great."

Problem existed for almost a lifetime (52 years) (back to the top)"Hi, my name is Lexie and I am one of Gary's success stories. I quit smoking December 10, 1997. As I associated my drinking of tea with having a smoke, I quit caffeine as well. It is now June 10, 1999, and I have yet to have a smoke or a cup of tea! Quitting Smoking
I also wanted help with improving my grades by lessening my anxiety while I was taking a college certificate course. Gary helped me with this too, he taught me an acupressure technique that can be used for a variety of different areas. I used it, however, to lessen my anxiety. I would like you to know that I was voted Valedictorian. I received two scholarships, one of which was for academic excellence!
I went from being a skeptical to being a believer!
If you wish to hear anything more of my success, please feel free to contact me through Gary."

1.5 packs for 19 years"I have been a non smoker for approximately a year and a half now, thanks to Gary Lowe's Clinical Hypnotherapy. I had tried to quit several times but would eventually give in and light up. With Gary's hypnotherapy I found it so much easier to stop smoking and just did not feel the strong cravings to start again. If you are really committed to quit smoking, I would recommend Gary Lowe's Clinical Hypnotherapy sessions." To Whom It May Concern

I have given permission to use me as a reference and to duplicate this letter. To Whom It May Concern
Anyone who wants hypnotherapy to work for them and BELIEVES that hypnotherapy WILL work for them is already half way to achieving their goal. The creation of a new reality depends on three things. The first involves raising of personal standards. The second involves altering limiting beliefs, ideas that start by saying 'I can not. . . .' The third is changing strategies until one is found that is effective.
I was a smoker. A heavy smoker, A VERY heavy smoker. I wanted to quit smoking but failed to achieve that goal. Whenever I tried, I was miserable and not a pleasant person to be around. In one of my attempts, my coworkers bought me a carton of cigarettes because I was so miserable to be around.
By following the instructions given during three hypnotherapy sessions with Gary Lowe, I was able to quit easily and completely in no time at all. I have given Gary permission to use me as a reference and to duplicate this letter because I want YOU to become as successful as I am, or even more successful than I am in becoming the person that YOU want to be.
Hypnotherapy is easy and effective and well worth every penny. And that is the bottom line. If you want to quit smoking or change your life in any way, first believe that hypnotherapy WILL work for you and then go for it 100%.
Words simply do not satisfactorily express the joy I feel every day as a non smoker.
Thanks, Gary."

2 packs a day for 26 years (back to the top)"I was under real pressure . . . and it spread to all my life. . . . I was worrying so much and I did not know what to do. Workplace Anxiety
I was surprised and more than a little skeptical when I came in but it did not last long.
After 2 or 3 sessions I noticed there is really something to this. We worked a lot in early childhood and I listened to my tape and fell asleep.
It has been over 4 months now and there are no problems coming back. I have a new job and when I feel stressed out, I can now manage it a lot better than I used to. I do not take the problems home with me like before.
It was money really well spent because it got me over my problems and I can handle any new problems because I know what to do. . . . I would rate the therapy 3 out of 4 on an improvement scale."

Problem existed since early childhood (34 years)"I have hated school since kindergarten. I did not want to be away from home and when I went to school I would get headaches and horrible stomachaches. . . . I would really feel sick and just want to go home. This happened every single school day for years and years since kindergarten and I am 15 now. The only time I would get relief was when I was home. Extreme Separation Anxiety
I always needed a bathroom around because I would get scared and throw up. I did not want to eat much because of that. I had nothing to live for. I had lots of problems with my friends and I gave up on that. . . . I never talked to my parents. . . . I had a bad relationship with my sister and my grandpa died, . . . it was just too hard.
Antidepressants did not help me, . . . none of it helped. It would make you happy for about an hour. I would get horrible migraines. My doctor took me off it.
My life was really horrible. I was so sad about school. Even the smallest things upset me.
I wanted to die. I tried suicide 3 times, cut my wrists deep and took aspirin and poisons.
I was skeptical. When I first came in it seemed crazy. I was sure it would not work.
It was amazing. I went from sad to happy, . . . how fast I changed. After the second session, I was perfectly fine. I feel great now, happy, awake, energized and I feel I can take anything on, . . . all in 4 hours and with the homework. I am a lot happier. I enjoy things. I am more positive. The first session the stomach pains at school went down about half way.
After the second session it was gone. I feel no pain, my friendships are a lot better. I am just happy.
I could not handle cars. I felt like passing out, it was too hot. . . . I was really sick, . . . stomachache and headache. I just did the (technique) and 2 minutes later it was gone. It was amazing! I thought I would have to go to the hospital but 2 minutes later it was gone. I thought . . . this is impossible, I have got to have a little tummy ache at least, . . . but I was perfectly fine for the rest of the night. I could not believe how fast it worked!
Suicide is not an option. Life is too precious. It is fun! How could something so painful that you have had with you for your entire life go away in 3 sessions? I did not want to live anymore, . . . how could that go away in just a few weeks? I hope other people will hear this and realize it can help them a lot, . . . change their whole life (transcript was originally audio taped). It is amazing. The pain I was going through was unbelievable and it only took 3 weeks. I would be glad to talk about this to others.
Like today, . . . I was having a bad day but I was still really happy. Out of 4, I would rate the treatment 4 and if I could give it a higher number, I would. It has eliminated painful feelings and given me more peace and harmony. I am so relaxed and not afraid.
I would tell anyone, . . . do the homework, follow and listen and you will be fine."

Problem existed since early childhood (14 years)"I always suspected that my weight problem was more than dieting. I would lose 30 pounds and put it all back on 2 or 3 times a year for the last 4 years. I was frustrated and scared because I would gain more weight each time. Feeding Emotions
In the past, boredom had to be filled with food. Now I do not do that anymore. The first time I did the techniques I thought it was crazy, . . . but it made me feel better so quickly. My self esteem improved and I choose good foods, a salad over a pizza. I make better choices and feel comfortable about it. I am not looking for a chocolate bar. . . . I am not searching for something to fill a void. There is absolutely no more struggle and my worry level is a way down. I used to spend so much time being uncertain. Now I make decisions and go ahead with it. I feel more confident about what I am doing. I thought the problem was about food but it was really about my emotions. I have lost 16 pounds in the past 5 weeks and we did not even pay attention to food problems, . . . we worked on my past upsets instead. As I began to feel better about myself, I just started to eat better. I realize now that I am allowed to have feelings and not try to get rid of it with food. I now have a right to feel O.K. with myself.
We dealt with issues in my life that I was unaware of. Now, when I think of those memories I am O.K. with them now. They are not painful anymore.
I was skeptical the very first time. When I did it for a couple of days, . . . it was working. You do not have to believe in it. I still do not know how it works but it is wonderful. I score it a 3 out of 4 on the treatment success scale of major changes. Try it even if you have tried everything else, . . . even if you do not believe it will work for you. I feel so much better. Losing the weight is almost secondary. The peace inside is even more important. All the bad feeling are gone and you just treat yourself better. It is so subtle, but it works great. It is so easy I wonder why I did not do this years ago."

Problem existed for 17 years"You worked on my daughter several years ago for an irrational fear and it helped her immensely, so I thought I would give it a try. Panic Attack
I would go to bed and break into a cold sweat. I was thinking of things that happened during the day and it would bother me so bad that I would have to get up, . . . this went on night after night for almost 3 years.
The first session helped me a great deal and the tape helped a lot. The acupressure works really well. I just went home after the first session and slept great and have continued to do so. I feel really good now, . . . sleeping well. It does not bother me at all. A 3 year problem gone in 2 hours. It is hard to believe. I never had to use the medication that the doctor prescribed because the problem was gone.
If it helped me, it will help others. I give it 4 out of 4 on your results scale. I would suggest to others who are suffering to give it a try. I would be pleased to talk to anyone and tell them it worked."

Problem existed for 3 years"I went for pain control about 3 years ago, . . . carpal tunnel and nerve problems in my hands. After the first session the pain lessened and my doctor said it was fine and dandy to continue, so we did 2 or 3 more sessions on my hands. I have gone on to use it mostly for headaches and other aches and pains. I got tired muscles and it helps me calm down and go back to sleep. Over 3 Years Of Pain Control
These techniques have lessened the amount of medication that I use, . . . a big plus! I think it has done a lot of really good things. I use it to get rid of headaches in 5 or 10 minutes. It amazed my husband. It gave me my self control back. To me, that is very important.
I thought it may be all hype at first but I was luck that my doctor said it was worth a shot because it can not hurt anything. I am still getting good results after 3 years. I would rate it 3.7 out of 4 on the healing scale."

Treatment: September 11, 1999 and September 18, 1999 (back to the top)"My sister recommended that I see Gary while I was visiting. She worked with him 3 years ago and got wonderful results. I have had severe pain for over 18 months. I have tried musco skeletal work, acupuncture, herbs and vitamins, psychiatry and medications, osteopathic treatments, . . . as well as deep tissue massage and exploration of my lymph and digestive systems. I have even had my amalgum fillings removed and replaced, . . . all with limited success. One physician told me my pain might be about emotional stress. Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue
My first impression was sheer skepticism but as we progresses through the treatment, I changed my mind. I was astounded at how effective the procedure was. I could control the pain by reducing my emotions. I had been unaware of the emotional connection. I was able to remove acute guilt, stress, anxiety within 30 minutes. . . . I might have suffered for days or weeks. It was amazing how I controlled it. I have had to go half way around the world to find relief in a little place called Dawson Creek.
I would tell the skeptical person . . . be confident, accept the procedures and work closely with Gary. The more you work with it, the more you achieve. I rate the improvements 3.75 out of a possible 4."

Problem existed for over 18 months"I had constant headaches, lower back pain, pain in my lower body and knees, my ankles. I had pain all the time. After the first session, I could control it and bring the pain down so I could stand it. After the third session, the pain came down even further. My headaches are much reduced and I can sleep through the night. Fibromyalgia
I have tried for years to reduce the pain. I have tried everything, . . . every gadget that came on the market I would purchase right away. I tried naturopaths, all sorts of alternative treatments and nothing came close to the relief that I am now experiencing. The pain is minimal now, . . . nothing else could do this for me, . . . even 292's.
I really did not believe that emotions had anything to do with the pain. I was skeptical if a psychologist could help me. I did not want to believe that my mind might have something to do with my Fibromyalgia. There is a stigma about seeing a psychologist and I was reluctant and skeptical. At my FM support group no one believed that emotions are part of the problem, . . . now I know better. I am so surprised about repressed emotions.
Even though I was skeptical, it worked. The techniques are so unusual, it is hard to believe that pressing on certain parts of your body can change your emotions. Now that I have control of the pain, I am now ready to lose weight.
I am more relaxed and at peace. I could never sit still in one place because I would always be worrying. I feel good about myself, life and the future. I just do not worry about being crippled for a lifetime anymore. I never expected this amount of pain relief in 6 hours. This is for real. Just read the testimonials. It worked for me so quickly, . . . what else can I say. All my friends noticed the change. I rate the improvements 3 out of 4."
