| 2009-08-06 | Crystal | 10 | 10 | 7 | 10 | No | Thank you so much for the response to my question. I certainly agree with your philosophy and had actually thought about locating a trained therapist in these modalities in addition to getting training from one of the fore mentioned programs. Best regards, Crystal |

| 2008-09-25 | sandi | 7 | 10 | 10 | 10 | No | I do not understand where my question, "is there anything more to be done to relieve the knots in my muscles?" became his right to assume, one way or the other, anything about my spiritual or psychological position. |
| 2008-09-24 | Donella | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | No | Thank you so much for your input. Although I will not try yoga I appreciate your comments. |

| 2008-08-11 | Dave | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | I've been using this service for years and that was - hands down - the best answer I've ever received. |
| 2008-05-22 | Vicky | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Many thanks for a very thoughtful and detailed response. I appreciate all the volunteers on this website, their time and effort that they so selflessly give is truly wonderful! |
| 2008-05-05 | Sylvia | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Thank you for your help John, your information on how stones work with heat and cold is very easy to understand, also i was aware that i had to seek medical advice before proceeding with a condition i was not happy with treating, but your explaination on wether or not i would ever be asked to treat such clients is commonsense really and, i agree with you about making sure that any client with cuts and bruises should be made aware of these before i treat them and, i will ensure that i get them to sign to say that they are aware of them and, that they were present befor treatment, i will take your advise on board and look up the properties of the stones as you suggested, but i think your explaination is what i need, thank you, i will let you know how i scored as i had to hand in my assingment prior to receiving your answer. Sylvia |

| 2008-04-30 | Jadwiga | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Dear J.N. Barakitis, Thank you so much for taking your time to answer my question. I didn't reply right away, because I wanted to check it out first. I have to tell you that I was very sceptical when I first read it and didn't think it would work. That's why I needed time to try it out and give my honest opinion. I used most of your suggestions and I think, I am much better now. I aam still dealing with some pain,physical and psychological, but I am back to work and more optimistic. I'm also back, after taking a break, on my massage therapy and taking it quite well this time. I really appreciate your advice. It was prompt, very clear and helpful.Thanks once again, Jadwiga PS. My car was totalled too. |
