PATIENT TESTIMONIALS These are genuine patient testimonials from patients treated at the Da Vinci Holistic Health Centre in Larnaca, Cyprus using the IDEL Diagnostic Protocol and the principles of Holistic Medicine. All of these patients had spent years seeing a number of medical doctors and had received many different types of medical treatments but their health problems remained or got worse. I am deeply grateful for all these patient testimonials, indebted and beholden to every single one of these patients (and all other patients that I see); all, without exception placed their trust in me – sometimes the going got tough, but their trust in me, and my trust in holistic medicine helped to get through the dark patches of the tunnel where we could see light again. I also express gratitude to them for placing their trust in me when I would say: “I have never tried this before, but I think it is going to work because ……” Nearly without exception most patients agreed to experiment and we managed to move one step forward. I believe these qualities of trust, commitment, developing a healthy therapeutic relationship with a mutual respect, and a determination to get well play a very important role in the whole therapeutic process for both patient and therapist. The cases are presented in the same format throughout, as follows: The presenting problem The medical diagnosis consisting of blood tests, scans and medical reports written by medical practitioners The holistic diagnosis, which consists of all the testing …

Testimonials - PAPIMI Helps Judo Champion CYPRIOT CHAMPION JUDO STAR HELPED BY PULSING ELECTROMAGNETIC THERAPY One of the most promising teenage judo stars of Cyprus has excelled beyond all expectations recently when he came home from the 8th International Portuguese Tournament in Portugal this March 22rd 2008 with the Gold medal. Andreas Krassas, 17-years old from Larnaca, weighing 60 kg has been suffering from sinus congestion and phlegm production for quite some time now. This often caused a blocked nose with snorting of phlegm to clear his throat and nose during competitions. This would often cause such congestion that he felt that he was drowning in his own phlegm and detracted him from showing his best. As we all know, judo is a sport that requires speed, strength but particularly stamina, something that is difficult when your airways are blocked and you feel that you are drowning in large amounts of phlegm. Only a few weeks ago the judo star Andreas went to the Da Vinci Holistic Health Centre (www.naturaltherapycenter.com) in Larnaca, Cyprus where he lives. After an initial consultation with Dr. George J Georgiou, Ph.D.,N.D.,DSc (AM), a Holistic Medicine practitioner of many years standing, it was decided due to time pressures as Andreas was preparing for competition that he would do a few treatments on the PAPIMI Pulsing Electromagnetic therapy device to see if this would alleviate some of the inflammation and phlegm production. Andreas had five PAPIMI sessions in succession – he had scored his phlegm production on …
