*Lauren, 6 years old, autism
Lauren is six years old and was diagnosed with mild autism at age four and a half. The family was told to accept this as there was no cure and that there was no hope that she would improve other than to teach her with visual aids.
Lauren's chief method of communication was grunting and she was unable to be taught anything at all. Her parents found a helpful naturopath who put Lauren on a casein and gluten free diet and biological treatments to help improve her health, which had been poor up until this point. This greatly improved Lauren's health but also her mental abilities improved as well.
The naturopath referred Lauren to Stella and with both treatments. Amazingly after six treatments Lauren has developed the ability to ask questions and is now aware of what is going on around her. Two weeks after starting treatment Lauren moved up three reading levels at school and she is relating to other children. Lauren continues to receive treatment from both Stella and the family naturopath.
Lauren has become independent, interacting with all members of our family and wants to join in as previously she was still in her own world. We are constantly amazed at the results we are seeing at each session. We still have a fair way to go with Lauren but now believe we have done the best for our daughter.

Helen, 17 years old, glandular fever
M.Ms 17 year old daughter had contracted glandular fever at the age of 10 and from then on had very bad health. She could cope with her studies but had little energy for anything else.
She became very ill with severe abdominal pain. This turned out to be bile reflux, which was burning the lining of her stomach. Around this time she also developed a host of debilitating symptoms: extreme tiredness, aching joints, sore eyes, very bad headaches, back and neck pain, sleeplessness.
After three visits with Stella my daughter was well enough to sit up for her treatment after previously only managing to lie down. I couldn't believe it! By November she was attending school for an hour or so on her 'good' days, giving her great pleasure. ... Most of her symptoms have disappeared or become less acute and these days she is attending school every day for about an hour and is slowly improving. We feel thanks to Stella she has a life to look forward to now ... back in July last year, her life seemed doomed! M.M
