Many
letters have been forwarded in support of this

This
represents only a small sample of the comments we have
received as feedback
CS
- H
These
were noted during the autumn term after H had been
taking the Bach remedies for 2 months:-
Parental
feedback:
“
He doesn’t need the drops any more. He is 100%
better. He now just has the odd bad day.”
“The project has worked for H – he is a stack
better than he used to be”
“He has calmed down a lot at home – he has stopped
trashing his room, he remembers to put things away….
Wants him to go to mainstream.”
“I think he knows what they are doing for him
because he talks about it.”
CS
- S
An
interim review with his teacher :
"Specific improvements this far:"
"
A big improvement noted in his behaviour so far.
"
"
Since half term he has been a different child, appears
sensible and calmer"
"
Some improvements were noted before half term."
CS-R
Parental
feedback
“When
RE takes the drops we will have times when she goes
without temper tantrums. “
"Times
when she has not been taking them coincide with school
exclusions due to violent outbursts at school."
“Sleeping patterns improved
until medication was altered and then
it got worse again” – improved again after
introducing PhytoBioPhysics."
“Her behaviour is more consistent at home when on
drops. When she’s off them her behaviour is
atrocious like she becomes another person.”
ALSO:
“This
project has done us all the world of good, for me and
J....., it has given us our life back. We both started
taking it when we were really low and it has kept us
going – without it we’d have given up, we’d have
been in the mire. When R takes the drops, she is
calmer her moods are better and she sleeps better,
when she doesn’t her behaviour dips.”
Teacher
feedback:
“Significant
improvements over the last few weeks – Prior to this
she was not coping in the afternoons – she can now
keep it together.”
“ Now pulling back control, even when she loses
it.”
CS
- N
Parental
feedback:
“N
will sometimes be very stubborn and refuse to take the
remedies. When he takes them his behaviour is
noticeably better, in that he is more willing to be
helpful. Times he refuses he does seem to get
worse.”
“He very rarely runs off now, He can be difficult
but is in more control of himself and doesn’t flip
out so often.”
“Still has mood swings but they do seem better.”
"He spends longer on activities”
“He is sleeping better.”
"When he takes the protein drink he doesn’t
raid the fridge and constantly look for food, which
causes arguments."
ALSO:
“The
project has given N a great deal of benefit. It has
given him other things to aim for like personal goals.
It has helped him a lot with his mood swings – only
had a positive effect. I would really like him to
continue on the programme as it has been a great
benefit to N”

is not setting fire to place”
“No longer locked in bedroom.”

since being on project”

working and there are no addiction problems like with
Doctor’s stuff.”
