Reverse Therapy - an effective treatment for CFS/ME

What causes CFS/ME?

CFS/ME is a physical illness based on neurological and hormonal changes, it is not a psychological disorder.  An area of the brain called the hypothalamus becomes overactive and puts the body into a state of “red alert” driving the body's systems to exhaustion leading to the many distressing symptoms.  The hypothalamus maintains balance within the body (homeostasis) by controlling:

  • Energy levels
  • Sleep cycle
  • Blood pressure
  • Temperature
  • Muscle function
  • Defence against infection

The overworking of the hypothalamus is caused by alarm signals generated by the limbic system (emotional brain). This happens when we ignore emotions and symptoms sent by our body to warn us of a difficult situation we need to act on.  It is as if the “fear, flight, fight” mechanism is stuck in the “on” position.

Symptoms of CFS/ME can include:

  • Fatigue
  • Muscle and joint pain
  • Muscle weakness
  • Sleep difficulties
  • IBS
  • Headache
  • Brain Fog, difficulty with memory, concentration and finding the right word.
  • Poor immune function
  • Repeated sore throats and /or swollen glands
  • Poor temperature control
  • Dizziness
  • Visual disturbance
  • Sensitivities to foods, medications or chemicals
  • Palpitations

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

I had suffered from CFS/ME for over 4 years and tried just about everything I could to treat it.  Some treatments did temporarily treat the symptoms but RT is the only one to treat the cause.  It took me 5 sessions but I felt better even after the first one.   I no longer have to go bed during the day and am able to work 24 hours per week.  The dizziness and fatigue (which were my main symptoms) very rarely occur and if they do I know exactly how to deal with them.  I really feel I have got my normal life back again after over 4 years of being able to do very little.  It was a great help to me that my therapist (Lyn) had been through it all herself and understood what I was going through.

I recommend RT to anyone struggling with fatigue.  If you have a positive frame of mind it will work.  You must go into the sessions wanting to get better (I know this sounds silly but you have to be determined) and you must follow the therapists instructions for between the sessions.  It is you who will make yourself better, with your therapists help.  Anyone sat reading this and wondering (just like I was 6 months ago) just contact your nearest therapist and that will be your first positive step to recovery.
