Hi Jo
I have tried EMT with my (now ex-) alternative medicine doctor (he used a range of osteopathy/ acupuncture/ hypnotherapy/ chinese medicine/ meditation/ reflexology/ breathing exercises/ crystals/ chanting/ EMT/ magnets/ light therapy and homeopathy. He did help me learn how to deal with the pain alot better and how not to panic when my RSD was going insane (I get RSD fits which are incredibly scary until you get used to them). Although the EMT didn't do anything major with me it really helped my mum who was recovering from a back injury.
None of the drs can really find a combination of drugs which controls/ eliminates the spasticity (from the secondary dystonia) - the ones I take at the moment help abit with it (as soon as I come off them or reduce the dose then I end up with every muscle tightening up and pulling me in odd directions rather like a pretzel) but don't cure it. The spasms have also caused loads of joint/ muscle/ bone/ ligament damage from being ripped to pieces. It's just so frustrating!
Thanks Jo - did you find that EFT helped you?
Love
Frogga xxxxx
