For several years now, I have been suffering from physical ailments following an accident. From a sporty person, I declined into an inactive individual with twenty kilos of excess weight. Although nothing at all was visible on MRI scans and other examinations, I continued to suffer from my symptoms. I have no idea how many physiotherapists, manual therapists, chiropractors, etc., etc., I have gone through by now, but nothing helped. Around the same time, we were also told that our daughter has a progressive eye condition that will cause her to go blind. All in all, that doesn't do much good mentally.
Because I recognized that the 'psyche' plays a major role, I have followed various programs for this. I started doing yoga, meditation, visited therapists, etc. But here too, without much success, which has left me quite 'treatment fatigued' after four years of struggle. During my last program, I was introduced to TMS (Tension Myositis Syndrome). The theory behind it is that the body experiences pain as a distraction from something in the mind. While I do believe in this theory in principle, I find it difficult to access the deeper psychological layers in a 'normal' situation. This is due to my own treatment fatigue and resistance to theories presented as if they come straight from the Bible. Theories that, according to therapists, can perform miracles if only you believe in them. I certainly believe that 'faith' can do a lot for a person, but I could no longer bring myself to dig so deep into my 'past'.
The truffle therapy helped me overcome the barriers and discover the deeper layers of my brain within a few hours (and they weren't always pretty). I have no idea what kind of nonsense I spouted, but what I do remember is that Marcel asks the right questions at the right moment to ensure I stayed somewhat on the right track. It didn't sink in completely immediately, but now, two days later, I am very happy that I embarked on this adventure. The physical symptoms haven't disappeared immediately, but mentally I feel a lot better. Who knows, my body might soon follow my mental state.
You can attend as many therapies, do as many training courses, and read as many books as you like, but in my experience, there is nothing that confronts you with yourself in such a short time. Just as with the latter (training courses, therapies, etc.), you really have to determine and maintain the effect yourself, but the start is there.
Thank you Marcel for your calm and professional way of guiding.
