I first started to attend the clinic in 2004. At that time I had been in a wheelchair for four years after contracting a virus. For the last two years before I went to the clinic I had made, however, no real improvement. In the two years since I have been coming to the clinic I have experienced huge improvements.

- My stomach and back muscles are stronger and almost back to what they were;

- The sensation throughout my body has increased greatly;

- The muscles in my legs have increased and my legs can now support a lot more of my weight;

- My walking has improved a lot too.

I have also been able to begin going to university and I feel stronger and healthier than I have in a long time. I feel, that, at long last, not only can I begin to look to the future, but I can look forward to it too.
