soccer, and his father tells me that he became more confident. At the<br />

same time he used to have occasional stomach pains..... He had no<br />

more stomach problems since the treatment.”<br />

Doctors do not know what the diagnosis is but appears like neuromuscular<br />

condition – the child cannot talk, hear and <strong>has</strong> a lack<br />

of motor skills.<br />

Mother’s report<br />

“My daughter’s speech therapist stopped me the other day in school<br />

and was all excited about how she cooperated with her for 45 minutes.<br />

She answered everything correctly (pointed to pictures) and even said<br />

a word. Her agitation was gone a week after your treatment, as well.”<br />

I am noticing that B. is becoming more communicative and she expresses<br />

her needs on her own, without being asked what she wants.<br />

I have a feeling she wants to speak and uses new sounds for it. If I<br />

show her how to do something and tell her that she should look there,<br />

not at me, she listens and then actually does what I ask her to do<br />

(simple things, to be sure). Small changes but very positive never the<br />

less. First I want to tell you that we are noticing further small, but<br />

frequent changes. Bogdana, her riding therapist, notes the following<br />

changes: riding facing backwards she no longer shakes like she used<br />

to, she <strong>has</strong> a nice posture and sits comfortably on a horse without a<br />

saddle. She swims faster and further than before. She started playing<br />

with the ball again and she jumps around in the water, which<br />

she didn’t do for a long time.She is generally more active and expresses<br />

herself much more spontaneously.”<br />

Young Child<br />

For the first time, this evening, I worked with a young boy aged 3. It<br />

was the MOST amazing experience with him! He was SO excited to<br />

sit and let me “do my thing” He REALLY liked the part at the end,<br />

smiling at his mom and me. I was so surprised at his willingness<br />

to sit and let me warm his head and heart with very little fidgeting.<br />

During the session, he said, “Mommy, I think she’s trying to get my<br />

cough to come out....” in the most excited voice you could imagine.<br />

After we finished up and mom was getting him situated in the car, she<br />

turns to me and said, “He really enjoyed that! He’s already asking when<br />

we are coming back!”<br />
